Before I get into this, can you believe that 2017 is over? I remember spending Valentine's day with my boyfriend and then all of a sudden - poof! The holidays are over and we're counting down from 10. I'll let you know that my holiday was amazing - I spent it cuddled up with Vlad, duh... It was the first time I spent this time away from my family, and while it was a bit scary, I got acclimated fast and enjoyed every moment. Anyway, this isn't about the holidays, this is about the makeup of the year. I wanted to give everyone a list of what I was blown away by this year and stuck with longer than I expected, and what I trashed, donated, or took back almost immediately. Without further adieu.... let's get started with the best: 1. Morphe x Jaclyn Hill Palette This palette was totally left field for me, because I wanted absolutely nothing to do with Jaclyn Hill or endorsing her in any way. Admittedly, I don't like the way she presents herself and never re...

Honestly - who doesn't love a good nude? I know that I used to be out of the majority and hate them. It wasn't anything to do with how they looked on other people, it was how they looked on me. For the longest time, I could NOT pull off a nude lipstick to save my life. But I realized that it takes a little digging to find exactly what you want, so I did exactly that and found a pile of beautiful nude lipsticks that have changed my life! In fact, I found so many that I was able to take them and compile a list for someone who had just as many struggles as me in finding the perfect nude lipstick Here are my 5 nude lipsticks that I couldn't live without! 1. Anastasia Beverly Hills - Matte Lipstick (Buff, $18) I swear, there is no lip "stick" formula that I've been more in love with than I have this ABH one. Buff is an absolute showstopper with rich pigment, one swipe coverage, and a long wear time. The color is a beautiful rose-nude that can add tha...

I feel as though no matter what happens, I'm always going to want more when it comes to makeup. "Best lipstick ever?" Well sign me up, but I want this other lipstick too. "MIRACLE FACE MASK??" Great, I also want this other one. Long story short, I spend so much time looking for the next best grab that I often forget to give notice to the makeup that I already have that I've been absolutely in love with this month. I figured with all of the constant hype about the next best thing, I would take a minute to wind down from my obsession with makeup hunting and acknowledge what beauty products have got me through August that I totally recommend if you haven't tried them already. 1. Milk Makeup - Blur Liquid Matte Foundation ($40) If you've read my previous post on this foundation, you already know how much I love it. Influenster was sweet enough to send me two bottles of the new Milk Makeup Blur Liquid Matte Foundation to try and review for fr...
