MAC – Crystal Glaze Gloss

MAC

Crystal Glaze Gloss

Purchase here!

This product was part of MAC’s Giambattista Valli Collection. The lipsticks in this collection sold out very fast, but that was okay because I was more interested in this product. MAC’s website said that is was a gloss that can transform any lip color to have a pearlescent finish. This is such a unique product and I am very glad that I picked it up.

MAC – Patentpolish Collection

MAC

Patentpolish Collection

Innocent

Purchase here!

I love this MAC product! It is very moisturizing and easy to apply. This color that I purchased is very neutral and doesn’t show up much on the lips, I would have gotten a different color if I would have know this. But, my mom has many of these in deeper shades and they are visible on the lips. I recommend this product, just maybe not this shade.

July Favorties

July Favorites

July was surprisingly such a good month for me. First off, I started trying to get a blog post out every weekday. It is hard, but I am loving it so much! The next big thing that has been happening in July is that since I am on summer vacation I came up with a very strict schedule for the day that I have been trying to stay on and I absolutely love it! I might write a blog post on how to come up with a strict schedule that fits your lifestyle. It completely changed my summer. I have quite a lot to talk about because a lot of my favorites of the month are events, so let’t get to it!

Makeup

Gerard Cosmetics – Serenity Hydra-Matte Liquid Lipstick

This is one of my favorite YouTubers Manny’s collaboration with Gerard Cosmetics. Love love love this!! Not only is it the perfect shade, it applies so easily, dries matte and actually stays on your lips for a long time.

Becca – Becca x Jaclyn Hill Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed / Champagne Pop

Another one of my favorite YouTubers Jaclyn Hill collaborated with Becca and created Champaign Pop. I am obsessed with this hilighter, I have not used anything else since. I wrote a blog post about it here!

Apparel

Moschino Loungewear

I got this on sale from one of my favorite online shopping sites ASOS. I wrote a blog post about it here!

Music

Hozier

Obsessed with this album, it is perfect! I don’t know why it took me so long to actually buy the album and listen to it.

One Direction – Drag Me Down

This song came out last night at like 1AM and I didn’t sleep thanks to One Direction.

Events

Okay, so most of my favorites this month are events. I enjoyed them all so much!

– Taylor Swift’s 1989 World Tour

– Warped Tour

– Hedwig and the Angry Inch on Broadway with Darren Criss

– Lady Gaga and Tony Bennett Cheek to Cheek Tour

MAC – The Best Summer Foundations

MAC

The Best Summer Foundations

From one extreme to another, here are two foundations that are perfect for the summer. One is extremely lightweight and one is full coverage and will not move off your face.

Studio Face and Body Foundation

This is a completely lightweight foundation, it reminds me of my tinted moisturizers. It is water based giving you a very natural satin finish. It feels like nothing is on your face at all. I have been wearing it all summer.

Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation

This is the complete opposite, this is a very full coverage. I wore this for a few sunny outdoor long day sweaty concerts and it did not move off my face. It really is waterproof and very full coverage. It says it lasts for 24 hours, I did’t wear it quite that long but I could easily believe that.

Everyone talks about this.. but it is meant to be talked about. I am absolutley obessed with this concealer. I have no idea what I did without this before I had this! It has the perfect applicator and applies to the skin so easily. Holy grail product.

Tom Ford – Neroli Portofino

Tom Ford Fragrances

Private Blend ‘Neroli Portofino’ Eau de Parfum

I thought I should share!

I have fallen in love! This scent is pure perfection! I was in Sephora one day just browsing around and smelling different scents and picked this one up. It is a scent you will either love or hate. The scent is very neutral, a man or a woman could wear it.

VANS – Classic Slip-On

Vans

Classic Slip-On

Purchase: here!

These are my all time favorite shoes. I wear them year round, but they are perfect for summer. They are so lightweight and comfortable and they go with absolutely everything. The white pair are my favorite, I love them. These Vans come in so many different colors. I also love other styles of Vans, but for me, nothing tops these.

MAC – Le Disko Collection

MAC

Le Disko Collection

MAC’s new collection is all about glitter. They came out with 12 eyeshadows, 5 lip colors and 2 eyeliners (one silver and one gold). At first I was not too interested in this collection, but when I went to the store to look at them I fell in love. The shadow can look different in different lighting (as you can see below).

Get them here!

Laura Mercier – 500 Point Sephora Gift

500 Point Sephora Gift

Laura Mercier

About a month ago there was a Sephora 500 point gift from Laura Mercier. I love this brand, between Laura Mercier and MAC it is basically all I use. The box had five items in it and I only had used two out of the five products before, the tinted moisture and the lip gloss. So, I got to try out three new products that I will absolutely be repurchasing.

1. Flawless Skin Face Polish

This is my favorite out of the five, I love skin care products. It cleanses and exfoliates your skin, I love the way it feels, like you are really getting a good clean base for your face. I am absolutely going to purchase this in the full size.

2. Foundation Primer – Radiance Bronze

This is perfect for the summer. It comes out of the bottle very dark but once you work in a small amount on your face it leaves your face with a bronzed glow.

3. Tinted Moisturizer – Nude

I already had this product and my normal shade is Porcelain, but since it is summer and I am tan, the Nude matches my skin tone right now.

4. Matte Radiance Baked Powder – Bronze – 03

I really like this powder because it leaves a radiant finish. This is a very dark shade for me so I use a small amount as a contour.

5. Lip Glace – Nectar

I had a Lip Glace before and I loved it because of the smell, and this has the same smell. Also, I am in love with this color for the summer. I plan to purchase this shade in the full size as well.
