Quote of the Day

I think everyone needs a little uplifting every now and then, I know I do! So who better to do it than Queen Bey herself? This particular quote is one of my favorites and so why not share it with you guys?

“I don’t like to gamble, but if there’s one thing I’m willing to bet on, it’s myself.”- Beyonce

Favorite 5: Makeup Products


Today we are talking about my top 5 favorite makeup products! I buy a lot of beauty and makeup products and I'm going to share with you my favorites. I recommend all of these products. If you have any questions or comments, you can always put it in the comment section below! So let's jump right into it!

  • Maybelline Fit Me Foundation

To me, this is the best foundation I have tried. It matches my skin tone near perfectly. I use the matte and pore less version and it keeps my face matte even though I have really oily skin. They don't have many good shades for Black women so they could improve on that but I still give it a thumbs up.
  • Colourpop Notion Matte Lipstick
Notion
I LOVE this lipstick! It's my absolute favorite go to lipstick. I'd wear it everyday if I could. It's described as a 'deependend raspberry'. It looks completely different on me than it does in swatches I found online. On me, it looks more like a pure darkened red. It's basically the only lipstick I wear.
  • Urban Decay Heavy Metal Glitter Eyeliner
I've had two of these glitters for about a year now. I have Glamrock (silver) and Midnight Cowboy (gold). It wasn't what I originally thought it would be so I didn't use it for a long time. I thought it would be more glittery and more pigmented. I found it to be hard to swatch because it's a clear base with glitter sprinkled in. I've been using it a lot more lately though to spice up my winged eyeliner. :)

  • BH Cosmetics Gel Liner in Onyx
I originally ordered this eyeliner last year just because I needed to get to a certain price to get free shipping. I didn't really care for it because at the time, I was a liquid liner fanatic. I tried it one day just because and I fell in love. I don't ever want to touch liquid eyeliner again! Gel liner all the way!

  • Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

This is the holy grail of setting sprays! Now I am a drugstore makeup queen but this is one product I don't mind paying full price for. I originally received it as either a 0.5 ounce or 1 full ounce free sample early last year and it's been a staple product for me ever since. This the only setting spray I use now!
