Hey girls! Ok, there's not really an introduction to this post, so lets just get straight to the point!
(just saying- all the products I use can be found at drugstores)
1) I moisturize my face and neck with Simple Hydrating Light Moisturizer.
2) I spray the Elf Makeup Mist and Set spray all over my face.
3) Now, I put on the Maybelline Colorstick Concealer on any red spots or under my eyes.
4) Next, I either put on the Fit Me foundation by Maybelline in the color 125, or I'll put on the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation in the color Nude-Light.
5) I set this with an Elf Clarifying Pressed Powder in the color Ivory.
6) Now i will use the Elf Golden Bronzer Palette and use the color in the top left, which is a medium-light brown color, and contour it.
7) Now I'm gonna use an Elf Blush in the color Glow, which is a peachy-coral color.
8) I take the Little Black BeautyBook "cool python edition" palette by Elf, and chose a shimmery, golden brown eyeshadow, and apply that all over my lid. I will go over that with a matte off-white so that it pops out more and so you can tell it is there underneath the eyeliner (because i have very small eyelids).
9) Now I will take my Essence 100% Splashproof eyeliner pen in Ultra Black, and apply a thick line to the upper lash line, and wing it out.
10) Next, I'm gonna take my Avon Ultra Luxury Eyeliner in Black, and apply it about 1/4 way through my waterline, starting from the outer corner.
11) I apply a few coats of the Waterproof Maybelline Falsies Volum' Express mascara in the color Brownish Black
12) I usually take a Wet n Wild Lipstick that is similar to my natural lip color, then go over that with the Hard Candy Plumping Serum - Volumizing Lip Gloss in the color Life Preserver.
13) Lastly, I will take the Elf Mist and Set spray once more and spray all over my face.
This process usually takes me 15-20 minutes in the morning. If you were wondering what brushes I use, they are all Elf ones. So as you can tell, most of the products were Elf and Maybelline- My two favorite makeup brands. Sometimes I like to switch up my products, but as of right now, this is my daily routine.
So I hope you enjoyed reading about how I do my makeup everyday! I've gotta go drink some apple cider!
Cya!

ULTA!
Hey everybody! So I went to Ulta Beauty Supply about two weeks ago for the first time and I loved it there! If you have never been to Ulta, it is basically a large makeup store that has high-end products AND drugstore products. They had brands from Revlon to Urban Decay! I bought all drugstore products when I was there. I got 3 NYX Jumbo Eye Pencils, they were originally $4, but they were on sale for $2. I got them in the colors Black Bean, Dark Brown, and Milk. I love all of them, but I think that they should make them waterproof so they don't rub off during the day. I bought one other NYX product, which is the Eyeshadow Base. I got the skin toned one and I honestly don't like it that much. Some people say that it is like Urban Decay Primer Potion, but I don't think it did a good job at all. It did not make the eyeshadow look more visible and it did not protect the eyeshadow from creasing throughout the day. On the other hand, I was very impressed by the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse Foundation. I have never tried a product from this line of Maybelline before, but I liked it! The name pretty much speaks for itself. It is a foundation, in the form of a mousse, and it makes your face very matte. I have tried applying it with a makeup sponge, and a brush, but I found that the best coverage was by just using my fingers. I barely have to use concealer on any imperfections if I use this, and that is good because it saves time! I also got the Maybelline Falsies mascara, and I just posted a review on that, so go check it out! The last product that I bought was from a brand called Essence. It is the Sun Club 100% Splashproof Eyeliner pen (that's a mouthful!!!). I have noticed that all of my liquid eyeliners have been rubbing off and creasing throughout the day, and I realized that none of them were waterproof, and I found this eyeliner pen for about $3! I use this product every day! I love it. It glides on very nice. The felt tip could be a little smoother because it is kind of rough, but that doesn't bother me that much.
So I hope everybody liked this post, and I will be posting an updated daily makeup routine soon!
TTYL!

Quick Review! Maybelline Falsies Mascara
Hey everybody! Sorry its been like 5 months since I've posted something! So I just wanted to do a quick review on the Maybelline Falsies Volume Express mascara. I LOVE this mascara. I use it every day when I'm getting ready for school in the morning. It is quite "volumizing" and it separates my lashes very well. For extreme volume, I like to apply the L'Oreal Voluminous mascara, then the Falsies. I think that eyelashes one of the most important features of a person's face. And I think that mascara just makes the lashes look so much more longer and prettier.
An Ulta haul/review is coming soon! Stay Tuned!
