Make-Up Must Have Monday

There is nothing better than coming home to a Sephora box on your doorstep! Cue Angels singing after a rough day at work! I take full advantage of their Friends & Family discount when offered to scoop up products from my wish list! Even better? Scoring this beautiful Kat Von D palette as a VIB beauty bonus! The texture is very wearable & perfectly on trend for the season with the rich purple.

I had read rave reviews about both of these products & I must admit they didn't disappoint! Dior's Lip Glow Color Reviver Balm is sheer & hydrating. And let's face it, every girl feels more glam pulling Dior out of their make-up bag! Fekkai's Ironless Straightening Balm is light & smells amazing. I put a little on wet hair & it makes my hair much more sleek.

This is the make-up I selected... I must admit I'm becoming a huge fan of Illamasqua! Their black cake liner is divine, I'm going to grab every color. I tried their eyeshadow in Shiver, which is a perfect golden nude highlighting color. Kevin Aucoin's Flesh Tone Lip Pencil was a smidge too dark in color for me thought the texture & staying power was great. Duwop's DoubleGlow 7 was as I feared not the right fit for my oily skin. Nice texture, nice glow- it just didn't stay put. I guess I was hoping upon application I would have Mandy Moore's perfectly dewy cheeks! The hands down winner of the group is Make-Up Forever's HD Powder. Don't be frightened by the clown white of the powder, it just makes your skin look better. Light as air on the skin, a few swipes on the face & everything looks more refined. I think all skin types will be happy with it- I know I was! What's your favorite new product my beauties?

Peace. Love. Lipgloss. M
