It's time for April's edition of Beauty Buys, and this month I want to highlight the products I use to create natural looking brows.
If you're like me, you may have suffered from over-plucked brows in the 90s. And maybe into the early 2000s if we're being honest. What were we thinking? Pencil thin brows are not the way to go and in effort to get a full, natural-looking brow, I have got it down to a 2 or 3 product routine. Plus, I've finally found the one trick to make my brows grow. ...
As you know, we love to talk about products around here. And in response to our 2017 Survey, 89% of you requested more beauty and wellness reviews, tutorials and videos, which made me excited because it is genuinely one of my favorite topics as well. With that being said, this year, I am kicking off my newest series, Monthly Beauty Buys, where I highlight my recent purchases, both beauty and wellness, and share a mini review. ...
I love to see what my favorite beauty and fashion editors keep in their makeup bags. And though I have my routine down, I still love learning about the newest (or oldest) tricks in the book. Today, I'm spilling my beauty bag. ...
My love affair with Sigma Beauty started long ago when I purchased the F80 Flat Kabuki Brush. One of my most used brushes to date! (but don't worry, I give it a good shampoo now and again.) We all know how expensive makeup brushes can be. And that is what initially peaked my interest in Sigma brushes. They have affordable options and several (thousand) positive reviews all over the internet. Being the curious gal I am, I purchased a few for myself. From the very beginning, I was very impressed with the quality and affordability of Sigma brushes. And to my surprise, I have had zero issues with these brushes. But have you tried their makeup? If not - you're in for a treat. ...
With the start of a new season, it's time to swap out our summer lipstick shades to more nude and berry tones. And while some of us have our "signature color," I prefer to have a few on hand to rotate based on my mood or the event. I shared my favorite nude lipsticks last year, ...
Many of you ask for makeup recommendations or foundation reviews. And tinted moisturizer has been a hot question with TTD readers lately. These aren't anything new in the makeup world, but they are the ones I keep going back to time after time. Whether you're looking for something sheer or full coverage, these will do the job. ...
Happy Friday! I am so excited to share with you all my Nordstrom Beauty Haul and a recap from the Nordstrom Beauty Trend Event on May 6th. The event was so much fun! I also loved getting to sit front row with the 10 winners from my Instagram contest. I always love meeting readers, and these girls were super fun! Not only was this a great event, but it was also a great learning experience. I had the opportunity to interview a few stylists and makeup artists from different brands and hear all about the new trends in beauty and skin care. ...
It wasn't until a couple of years ago that I started to really understand the benefit of using a face primer. I always had this idea in my head that using a primer would either make my skin become more oily or cause it to breakout. However, I quickly discovered that isn't the case with some primers. A primer is a base for your foundation that creates a smooth canvas for makeup application. It can help smooth pores, increase longevity in your makeup, and help soften any minor skincare concerns. And yes, it really does work! But remember, always let your moisturizer and serums set in your skin before applying your primer. If time allows, I usually wait a minute or two before applying my primer. ...
When it comes to beauty and skincare, I love researching and trying new products. Though I have my year-round staples, I like to rotate a few pieces in my beauty bag with the start of a new season. I recently ventured over to the makeup counter at Nordstrom and picked up a few new things for spring (it's hard for me to pass up a good Gift With Purchase). Whether it's adding a pink lip or reintroducing your favorite bronzer to your routine, I've got you covered. ...
Packing for an upcoming trip or weekend getaway can sometimes be a daunting task. Particularly, when it comes to beauty products. If you're like me, you don't want to over pack. Especially, if you're trying to fit everything in a carryon. With all the traveling we've been doing this past month, I've had several questions about my travel beauty routine and products that I was featuring on snapchat or instastories. Here are the products I've been traveling with lately: ...
