I know for many people, summer can do a number on your skin. From sunburn peeling to skin irritation and pimples due to sweat and dirt build up. It can be hard to keep that beautiful face of yours silky smooth and glowing.
Now with the seasons about to change (whenever the weather decides to lean in my favor lol) your skin is about to be thrown for another loop.
With all the changes I figured I'd share my skin care routine with you to help get your skin back in gear from all that summer has done and prep it for fall to avoid any other...lack luster reactions.
After the jump you'll find my 6 go to products that I think every woman should have in her skin care arsenal along with a bonus tip on how to really boost you skins heath so you'll be glowing right into fall!
I won't say I went crazy at the NYX Pentagon City Grand Opening...but I will say that I picked up a bit more than I bargained for.
To be honest I only went in for a new eyeshadow base and a grey lipstick...but clearly my self control missed that memo.
However not all that glitters is not gold...
Find out all the deets on the products I snagged at the opening including which ones I loved and kept and which ones I hated that had to go back to the store!
Plus suggestions on which products I think are really your dollars.
The wait is finally over for the DMV!
NYX Cosmetics 12th storefront has opened inside the Fashion Center at Pentagon City!
I had heard rumors of the store opening for a while but hadn't had the chance to get to Pentagon City until the second day of the opening. Check out pictures of the store layout, my thoughts on the opening and what I loved below!
I have not quite figured out why but I live for a dark lip!
Fall, Winter, Spring Summer...I don't care about the season! While most people are reaching for nude and flirty pink's for their lips and eyes I'm still holding on to my deep tones.
But...this love of dark tones doesn't go without a struggle. When summer time hits I've always struggled on how to make dark vampy makeup work without looking out of season.
But I think I've finally got it. Check out what I used to achieve this vampy daytime summer look below!
Its all about the brows baby....said its all about the brows baby!
Hey Loves!!
As we transition into cooler months our beauty routines tend to change. Our skin needs a little more hydration, the shades of makeup we use on an everyday basis begin to deepen and even the polish colors we choose to put on our nails switch up.
With that being said I wanted to share with you how my beauty routine has changed a bit for the fall and some of the products I am currently using and loving as the weather cools down.
I hope you all enjoy!
Hey Loves!!
The past few weeks I have been on a huge lipstick kick and of course since fall is upon us most of the colors have been darker than what I usually reach for.
But I love it!!
I love that in fall & winter a girl gets to get a little seductive with her color choice its something about a dark lip thats just super sexy and the richer the color the better! Its just brings a little something extra to your look while keeping you mysterious ;)
Now played around with a few different brands of lipstick in my life time but the two that have always done it for me are MAC and Wet N Wild for their bold colors and long lasting wear.
So I feel like I'm always on a constant search for the perfect lipgloss. I mean the story normally goes a little something like this...
While finishing up my makeup I'll sift through my jar of lipgloss and try on a million different ones on top of my lipstick, just to find that I hate them all. So at some point during the day I go to Sephora or MAC and pick up another one that I think I love....flash forward a week or so and I'm back at square one sifting through glosses and hating them all!
DO YOU KNOW HOW FRUSTRATING THAT IS!? I feel like whenever I buy a lipgloss I get this instant excitement because I finally think I found "the one" but I'm always wrong! And I mean lipgloss isn't cheap to be buying one after the other that your not even going to use after next week.
HOWEVER
All that came to a halt when I came across the holy grail of lipgloss!
