Today we are speaking all about foundations, which is the second most important part of your bridal beauty routine. I have one drugstore and one high end foundation that I put to the test this weekend that will surely make you look beautiful all through your wedding.<br />
<br />
Before we get to the foundations the number one rule to remember when picking out your bridal foundation is <b>NO SPF</b>. The chemical that they use in foundations that contains the SPF will give off a white cast when pictures are taken with flash and that's something even the best photographer can't edit out.<br />

You don't have to shell out sixty bucks on a foundation or sacrifice for a sub par foundation that will diminish throughout the day or require multiple touchups. This foundation is the best of both worlds. I wore it for about 10 hours and it still looked perfect by the end of the night. When you first open the foundation your expectation is that it will be thick and heavy, but rather it is a whipped texture almost bouncy to the touch. I recommend using your fingers to blend it in or to dot around the face and then blend in with a damp makeup sponge. With just one even layer it provides medium coverage, so it is easily buildable if you are looking for full coverage. It sets quickly and with a satin matte finish. My combo skin didn't even require powder! Though oiler skin types might want to set the T-Zone with powder just for safety. <br />

I had done a lot of research about bridal foundation and foundations in general before this post and I knew for certain this was the high end foundation that was going to be the winner. Walking into Nordstrom was a long sad walk of agony. With every step I could feel the weight of the impending purchase and the effect it would make on my diminishing bank account. Once the worst part was over, I rushed home to try it out.<br />
<br />
<b>IT WAS MAGIC</b>.<br />
<br />
I thought it was a joke at first, like this was too good to be true. The makeup was light and liquidy, almost undetectable to the eye when on the skin. With one light layer it evened out my entire skin tone and set with the most beautiful satin matte finish. With this foundation I recommend either using your fingers or a traditional foundation brush. To blend seamlessly use a damp makeup sponge as well. Like the drugstore foundation it looked as beautiful at the end of the night as it did the moment I put it on. Now, girls with oily skin might be wary to this foundation when they see the words "luminous" and "liquidy," but this foundation is suitable for all skin types and sets to oily skin beautifully.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both are worth a look at, but if you are willing to pay the big bucks you will not be disappointed and will definitely be getting your money's worth.</div>

Although I love the grandeur of the Oscar's my heart will always be with TV so the Emmy's are my Oscars. Lots of great fashion walked the carpet last night, with a popularity of reds and whites. In no particular order, here are my best and worst picks.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<u><b>B E S T</b></u></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sofia Vergara stunned in her favorite mermaid silhouette designed by Roberto Cavalli. White is a very unforgiving color but when you look like Sofia there is nothing to hide. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Camila Alves, 1/2 of Hollywood's most fashionable couple, never disappoints. This white and nude stunner by Zuhair Murad look flawless against Alves' dark hair and tan skin.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Supermodel Heidi Klum wowed in a sleek Zac Posen gown. The simple cut let the attention be all about the color. The flowing cape in back provided a stunning exit look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
America's funny lady Julia Louis-Dreyfus always seems to look great every award season. It may be due to her inability to age (she is 53!). Her raspberry custom Carolina Herrera gown flattered every curve.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B1R26097GkI/U_wPdOxPrYI/AAAAAAAAA7E/W5HzwOrLWEU/s1600/best2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-B1R26097GkI/U_wPdOxPrYI/AAAAAAAAA7E/W5HzwOrLWEU/s1600/best2.png" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If someone is to wear a mini to the Emmy's it is Julia Roberts, just look at those gams! The navy color of her Elie Saab Couture looks great against her blonde hair and the texture and structure is incredibly chic. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sarah Hyland decided to play with both color trends and succeeded in the best way possible. I'm not usually one for crops but the subtle midsection still looks classy while being young and fresh for a 23 year old. The top was perfectly structured and the skirt was perfectly full, everything one could want in an Emmy look.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Oh Lena, Lena, Lena, why do you do this to me? I was definitely not surprised to see another red carpet flop by Dunham. The top and skirt combo by Giambattista Valli was so wrong in so many ways and probably one of Lena's worst looks yet. The top especially was her downfall. It was too big for her, wrinkled, and sloppily tucked into her skirt.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Christina Hendricks was an unexpected pick for worst dressed. Her bombshell curves usually lend themselves to beautiful mermaid gowns. Unfortunately this Marchesa gown was a little too big and the amount of ruching in the center made her look bigger than she actually is.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zpB1wytPvRg/U_wMvXwJ0VI/AAAAAAAAA64/zWxm15h5KY0/s1600/worst2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-zpB1wytPvRg/U_wMvXwJ0VI/AAAAAAAAA64/zWxm15h5KY0/s1600/worst2.png" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Most commonly remembered from her role in That's 70's Show, Laura Prepon, could easily mistaken since she has ditched her red locks for stark black ones for her role in Orange is the New Black. Her dress by Gustavo Cadile was too much allover from the zig-zag "peplum," the train, and awkward collar shoulder thing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
If someone were to show me this picture and tell me Katherine Heigl was 35 I'd call their bluff immediately. This vintage John Hayles gown ages her about 20 years. Even worse is the color, the yellow based cream is too similar to her hair and skin making her look like a big yellow blob.</div>

<a href="http://www.polyvore.com/wedding_wednesday_primer/set?.embedder=4058585&.svc=blogger&id=132629824" target="_blank"><img alt="Wedding Wednesday: Primer" border="0" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/DwLUoDgo6BZvHO7nsQ2VnA/cid/132629824/id/4Pc3gNQo5BGEnTylDXURzQ/size/c700x579.jpg" force="1" height="579" title="Wedding Wednesday: Primer" width="700" /></a></div>
</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
No matter what time your wedding is at you will surely have your makeup on for at least 10 hours. In those 10 hours you will be under the sun taking pictures, maybe on a stage of a banquet hall, and definitely on the dance floor. Your makeup needs to look just as fresh and flawless as it was the moment you saw yourself unveiled by the makeup artist. While you can leave much of the makeup up to your makeup artist, if you have one, but a primer is something you should test out in the months prior. To help the selection be a little easier I've put together 4 primers perfect for every skin type. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>D R Y</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3590047" target="_blank">Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Hydrating Primer</a> ($42)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Many dry skinned damsels flee at the sight of primers because they are usually linked to mattifying the skin of oil which will only accentuate the dry patches on their faces. But no need to be in distress any longer, this primer by Smashbox is formulated to hydrate the skin. It will smooth over the dry patches and help makeup lay on top evenly. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>O I L Y</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/veil-mineral-primer-spf-15-P210575?skuId=1319193" target="_blank">HOURGLASS Veil Mineral Primer Broad Spectrum SPF 15</a> ($18 - $72)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
The Hourlgass primer is a tried and true product by all oily gals. It's most reigning achievement is how incredibly light weight it feels on the skin unlike most mattifying primers. Many reviewers post of 12-16 hours of wear for their makeup! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/ever-matte-poreless-priming-perfector-P378017?skuId=1495209" target="_blank">BECCA Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfectorâ„¢</a> ($36)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This formula minimizes pores like a dream. Like the Hourglass it boasts of 12 hour wear. It also is incredibly fast absorbing, which leaves your skin feeling fresh rather than stuck with another layer of makeup. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>C O M B O</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod1400050" target="_blank">TOO FACED Primed and Poreless Face Primer</a> ($30)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you struggle with dryness on your cheeks and oil in the t-zone then come over and join the combo club. I personally love this Too Faced primer. It has a flesh tone color which aids in evening out the skin and leaves your face looking poreless. My favorite feature is how it is oddly hydrating yet mattifying in all the right places. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Hopefully this list helps in your search for the perfect primer. My biggest tip when testing out primers is to ask for samples. They can usually last you about 1-2 weeks of use and perfect time to test it out for all days and occasions. </div>

Your bridal look is a very important aspect of the wedding process, but like I've said many times before, no makeup look will look its best when the skin underneath is not at its best. And on your wedding day the best is all you want! So before we jump into any beauty products and looks in the upcoming weeks we first have to talk about bridal skin care. Today I will be sharing with you three categories of products every bride needs to add to their routine in the upcoming months to her wedding to guarantee skin that is clear, smooth, and glowing.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
</div>
</div>
<br />
<a href="http://www.polyvore.com/wedding_wednesday_skin/set?.embedder=4058585&.svc=blogger&id=131877734" target="_blank"><img alt="Wedding Wednesday: Skin" border="0" src="http://cfc.polyvoreimg.com/cgi/img-set/.sig/UXaUVaqezhQgDgciRrgWsQ/cid/131877734/id/ZrBXkCAj5BGgwWVzzSGTQA/size/c700x596.jpg" force="1" height="596" title="Wedding Wednesday: Skin" width="700" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>M A S K S </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
A mask is a great way to intensely target your skin's problems. I recommend using a mask once of twice a month depending on your skin's needs. GlamGlow masks are the queen of all masks. If you want to revolutionize your face, these are the only way to go. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/thirstymud-tm-hydrating-treatment-P384782?icid2=GlamGlow_Bestsellers_Carousel_P384782_image" target="_blank">GLAMGLOW THIRSTYMUD Hydrating Treatment</a> ($69)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Skin Type: Dry, Dull</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This mask is a great one to use the day before your wedding to really hydrate and plump up the skin. The extra hydration will help your makeup go on more smoothly and you will surely have that bridal glow. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/youthmud-tinglexfoliate-treatment-P375741?skuId=1463801" target="_blank">GLAMGLOW YOUTHMUD Tinglexfoliate Treatment</a> ($19 - $69)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Skin Type: All</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is the mask that made GlamGlow famous. It is the perfect exfoliating mask that will leave your face incredibly smooth and glowing. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/super-mud-clearing-treatment-P376409?icid2=GlamGlow_Bestsellers_Carousel_P376409_image" target="_blank">GLAMGLOW SUPERMUD Clearing Treatment</a> ($69)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Skin Type: Acne-Prone</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This mask will <i><u><b>deeply</b></u></i> cleanse the skin of all the impurities trapped in every pore. I suggest to use the hydrating mask the next day to help revive your skin from the extreme clean. (Note: If you have problematic skin, head to the dermatologist ASAP, they will be able to help you the most by finding a routine that will clear up your skin before your big day.)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>S E R U M</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Serums are something I recommend to everyone regardless if they are getting married. A serum is a great way to regularly nourish your skin and prevent premature aging, wrinkles, and help the overall wellness of your skin. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/100-pure-argan-oil-light-P380805?skuId=1640515" target="_blank">Josie Maran 100 Percent Pure Argan Oil Light</a> ($16 - $96)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I love Argan oil. It has so many different uses from skin care to hair care and more. The light version is the one I recommend the most because it will be suitable for both dry and oily skin types. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/advanced-night-repair-synchronized-recovery-complex-ii-P379994?skuId=1551761" target="_blank">Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II</a> ($62 - $92)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is a classic serum. It is great for all skin types and ages. Your grandmother, mother, and aunt probably use it, so you should too. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>E Y E C R E A M </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
On your wedding day your eyes will most likely be the feature you choose to highlight with your makeup. You don't want to have dry skin around your eyes or little lines that trap concealer, so implementing an eye cream into your routine will help prevent these problems.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

Whether you are doing your makeup your self or hiring a professional, everyone needs to start from some sort of inspiration. Your dress and decor may go out of style but your bridal look should not. The key to anything bridal is to capture your natural beauty and personality. This is not the time to try out that purple liner or chic tangerine lip.</div>

A curly side chignon and type knot are incredibly romantic. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The chignon is one of the most popular wedding hairstyles because of how effortless it looks. The key to pulling off the topknot is to make it a bit messy like the bride above. The more clean and pulled back it is, it will fall more on the glam (Kim K) side of things.</div>

Two rules:</div>

1. The messier the better</div>

2. Flower crown, always</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Bohemian makeup tends to sway to the two extremes of makeup. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The first would be a very messy smokey look of neutral colors. The second would be almost no makeup at all, emphasize your features with a light lining of the lash line with eyeshadow and a neutral lip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are so many options to choose from and it can be quite overwhelming! But the most important rule to live by is to find a style that will reflect your personality. Choose a style that you will be happy to look on 20 years from now.</div>

So two months a really cool thing happened. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got engaged to my very best friend!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Immediately after my head started spinning with a mixture of excitement that I get to be with him forever, color schemes of bridesmaids' dresses and flowers, and how that Pinterest board will finally be put to use. With so many ideas out there from the internet and of course my mother, grandmother, aunts, and every person I pass by on the street, the task of actually planning a wedding becomes very overwhelming very quickly. To make things even more hasty we decided to get married at the end of December...of this year, conveniently after I will have spent 3 months in Europe studying abroad this fall. If you are reading this and thinking I'm crazy, I'm already fully aware of that fact. But hey, doesn't love make you do crazy things? (Bad joke, I know.) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
As I race off to the altar and begin planning my life with that hunk up there, I decided to take you along for the journey, the beauty journey that is. Whether you're a bride, bridesmaid, or just a guest each Wednesday I'll be testing out different products, looks, and sharing helpful tips, tricks, and tutorials to make sure you look naturally stunning for that exciting day. </div>

Rompers are my favorite pieces to wear in the summer. They are no fuss outfits perfect for those lazy summer days. Pair them with the right shoes and accessories and they can easily go from the beach to a night out. When shopping for rompers if you want simple cuts get it in a graphic and when looking for simple color look for interesting cuts. This will keep the outfit looking exciting and you can wear that romper with confidence. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now I'm not much of a primer girl. I have never really seen the purpose for them since most of them are to control oil and minimize pores, which are two things I've never needed to fix. After seeing a couple of reviews about this <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4130153&skuId=2240669&_requestid=793236">L'OREAL Magic Lumi Light Infusing Primer</a> ($12.99) by some ladies with drier skin I knew I needed to try it. I've put it to the test for the past two weeks and here are my thoughts. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
C L A I M S</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- "boost's skin natural luminosity"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- "skin texture is smoothed & toned to provide a perfect canvas" </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
P R O S</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- skin is left very smooth</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- makes foundations look more luminous (perfect to pair with matte foundations to keep from looking flat and cakey)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- doesn't leave the skin feeling greasy</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- makes foundation last longer</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- pump makes for easy and hygienic application</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
C O N S</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- smells like plastic </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- if you use a whole pump it can leave your skin looking grayish </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I really like this primer! I would recommend it most to dry skinned girls because as you can see from the second picture it will create a very glowy complexion. If you have oily/combination skin and still want to try this out I recommend only placing it on the tops of the cheek bones and down the bridge of the nose to avoid your oily and more porous areas or mix half a pump with your matte foundation to create a luminous complexion while still controlling the oil. </div>

A lot of people have said they want to know more about my skincare in the comments of my latest posts. So I'm giving what the people want! Today's post revolves around my toners and eye cream I have currently been using. Toning is only of my favorite parts of cleansing, it also is one of the most important that should not be skipped! Even after cleansing, your skin isn't completely clean and toning gets rid of any excess dirt, oil, makeup, you name it. I use two different tones, one for morning and one for night.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Elizabeth-Arden-Refining-Toner-Lotion/dp/B0013EMDUM">Elizabeth Arden Refining Toner Lotion</a> (<strike>$19</strike> $10.96) is the one I use for the morning. I don't cleanse in the morning because I see it as unnecessary since I didn't get very dirty while sleeping, it also helps keep my skin balanced. This is my second bottle of the Elizabeth Arden toner and I love it. It is very gentle, perfect to get rid of morning oil.<br />
<br />
The <a href="http://www.sephora.com/pureness-balancing-softener-alcohol-free-P173643">Shiseido Pureness Balancing Softener</a> ($24.50) is my night time toner. I found this a month ago and am obsessed! Not only is the packaging beautiful but the toner makes my skin incredibly soft. It's also alcohol-free so it doesn't dry me out and is perfect for anyone with sensitive skin.<br />
<br />
When it comes to eye cream I don't think you are ever too young to start using one. If you are in your early 20s or late teens you won't need anti-aging properties yet, but definitely look for moisture and brightening powers. This will keep your under eyes looking smooth and awake. An added benefit is your concealer will go on much smoother and less likely to crease. My current eye cream is the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Elizabeth-Arden-Perpetual-Moisture-Cream/dp/B0013EIWES">Elizabeth Arden Perpetual Moisture 24 Eye Cream</a> (<strike>$30</strike> $18.22). It keeps my eyes very hydrated and smooth, and I have seen a decrease in the sliding of my concealer. It claims to have brightening agents but I haven't noticed a difference in the month I have used it. Even though it has worked well I don't think I will purchasing it when it's done. I would rather shell out a few more bucks for something a little stronger.<br />
<br />
Tip: Check your local TJ Maxx and Marshalls before shelling out big bucks for your skin care. I get all my Elizabeth Arden there! They also house other big brands like Shiseido, Retinol, theBalm, and others, but it does differ at each location.<br />

<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w6iKYDcFgC0/U0cus_NjjCI/AAAAAAAAA00/t6RKY9IhC8s/s1600/IMG_0241.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-w6iKYDcFgC0/U0cus_NjjCI/AAAAAAAAA00/t6RKY9IhC8s/s1600/IMG_0241.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If any of you are avid makeup shoppers than you know that high-end makeup almost never goes on sale. So when the VIB Sale at Sephora rolls around a few times a year it's the time to pick up all the things you have been dying for. I didn't have a huge list of products I wanted to pick up but there were two that I knew I had to have.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E16fXicZKgo/U0czT2cAtnI/AAAAAAAAA1I/xCbswoJ33w0/s1600/IMG_0244.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-E16fXicZKgo/U0czT2cAtnI/AAAAAAAAA1I/xCbswoJ33w0/s1600/IMG_0244.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The <a href="http://www.sephora.com/ambient-lighting-powder-P377723?skuId=1483551http://www.sephora.com/ambient-lighting-powder-P377723?skuId=1483551">Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powders</a> ($45) are beautiful powders that are designed to blur the imperfections of your skin like you are in certain lightings. The one I chose was Diffused Light which is a "soft, warm yellow powder." Its goal is to diffuse the redness in the skin, which is what attracted it to me the most. It eliminated shine while still leaving a radiant glow to my complexion. I put it to the test today and had it on for over 12 hours(!), while washing a car in 85 degree Los Angeles heat and running errands. It has kept my oil completely at bay. I am very impressed not only with the beautiful finish it gave to my skin but the incredible wear time. I will definitely be picking up more of these beauts and I think you should too!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uvY-3bDpFQw/U0cuwlDf_VI/AAAAAAAAA08/HchhPDDeLpQ/s1600/IMG_0245.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uvY-3bDpFQw/U0cuwlDf_VI/AAAAAAAAA08/HchhPDDeLpQ/s1600/IMG_0245.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
No, your eyes are not deceiving you, that is a purple lipgloss. I've always wanted a <a href="http://www.sephora.com/product/productDetail.jsp?keyword=NARS%20Larger%20Than%20Life%20Lip%20Gloss%20P293602&skuId=1444264&productId=P293602&_requestid=296497">Nars Larger Thank Life Lip Gloss</a> ($26) but didn't want to get just another pinky nude, I have far too many already. This new color called Annees Folles intrigued me and I decided to go for it. The coverage is very sheer so it plays up your natural lip color while giving it a beautiful purple undertone. It made my lips turn to a beautiful pale pinky lilac, it was very flattering. In regards to the lip gloss formula, it is incredibly moisturizing but a little too sticky for my taste. I don't think I will be shelling out twenty six bucks for another one of these lip glosses any time soon, but it is still a great piece to have in my makeup bag.<br />

There is nothing I love more than fresh spring accessories. Florals and pastels are the perfect addition to any outfit. Forever 21 is one of my favorite places to shop accessories, mostly because it's cheap and they always seem to be on point in that department. Even though I love dainty necklaces, I always feel more done up with a statement necklace. I've also been trying to up my bracelet game (thanks to @damselindior and @songofstyle) lately. These two are great statement pieces that can easily be paired with simple chains or bangles. If there is one place Forever 21 always gets right it is earrings. They are super cheap, chic, and always have the perfect 12 piece sets for everyday. I usually always stick to small studs, but after seeing <a href="http://www.sheknows.com/beauty-and-style/articles/1033723/emma-watson-wears-ear-cuff-to-the-noah-premiere">Emma Watson</a> sport the prettiest ear cuff to the Noah premier I knew that is what I needed next. Though they may seem intimidating for an everyday look, they will be great to pair with a night time look (and make sure you're hair is pulled back or up, you wouldn't want to hide that beautiful ear candy!). </div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0zQpo5gKDE/UzpXNTeZbVI/AAAAAAAAA0k/RhsYLiyHOeM/s1600/IMG_0138.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0zQpo5gKDE/UzpXNTeZbVI/AAAAAAAAA0k/RhsYLiyHOeM/s1600/IMG_0138.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
So I was in line at Ulta and only have one thing in my hand, so naturally my shopaholic ways took over and my eyes wandered to the in-line displays. I was instantly attracted to the bright packaging and for $2.50 each, what a steal! I grabbed them and this week I have put them to the test. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod5190199">The Body Shop Vitamin E Sink-In Moisture Mask</a> ($22.00 - full size)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This mask was created for us dried skinned gals. It has a very thin, lotion like consistency and it does not harden like most masks, which was new for me. (Confession: I was a bit sad that it didn't, I secretly love the feeling when your face is stuck in a mask.) After the allotted 10 minutes I washed it off and patted dry and reveled in skin glory. My skin felt soft and very supple, there was no need for a moisturizer. I think I would buy the full size during the winter months when the chilly and dry Santa Ana's blow through LA, and I would definitely recommend it for anyone with super dry flaky skin. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod5190223">The Body Shop Seaweed Iconic Clay Mask</a> ($22.00 - full size)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Clay masks always get me excited. I just picture it pulling out all the gunk stuck in my pores like a magnet! And this mask did not disappoint. It goes on black and dries to a grey of about 10 minutes. It feels very tight and invigorating. After washing it off I couldn't see a huge difference, but I could feel it. My face felt squeaky clean and my pores felt tighter and looked smaller. For dry skin types I would caution against this, unless you are experiencing a breakout, because it might dry out your skin. This is a holy grail mask for oily and acne-prone skin, I think once a week this mask would work wonders on giving your skin a good deep clean. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod5190231">The Body Shop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion</a> ($21.00 - full size)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I didn't notice this was a mircodermabrasion until after I got home, but I was excited to try it regardless because I had never tried anything like it. I was expecting a St. Ive's type of scrub that had big abrasive beads. Instead the scrub had a lot of microscopic beads. As I massaged it over my face for a minute or so it felt as though my face was vibrating. Once I washed my face my skin looked radiant and incredibly soft! I still felt as though my skin was vibrating even a few minutes after though, but I enjoyed it, I felt as though I had just gotten a real microdermabrasion treatment. I don't think I will buying this anytime soon because I fear its a little too exfoliating for my skin but it would be a great treatment to do once a month to keep my skin glowing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Do you have any masks you love and also how many times have you fallen for the impulse buys at Ulta and Sephora? </div>

I've made quite a few trips to the drugstore this month and have picked a good handful of products. Some I've been able to test out and some are too recent to tell, but here are my thoughts so far. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Biore has come out with a new charcoal infused line consisting of a facial scrub and mask. Since I'm not in the market for a new cleanser (read about my beloved cleansers here) I decided to pick up the <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod6430377">Self Heating One Minute Mask</a> ($6.49). It seems reminiscent of the famous <a href="http://www.sephora.com/glamglow">Glam Glow</a> masks that have a pretty hefty price tag ($69 a pot!). The charcoal is supposed to naturally pull out impurities in the skin. I haven't been able to give it a try yet, but I can't wait to have a little spa weekend. </div>

I was so excited to stumble upon this <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4160009#">Revlon Colorstay polish in Trade Winds</a> ($7.99). It is the absolute perfect nude, almost identical to my skin tone. Nude polish looks fresh for spring and it's the perfect way to make your fingers look longer. </div>

Out of all the things I have picked up recently this <a href="http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/sally-hansen-dry-kwik-nail-color-dryer/ID=prod1940093-product">Sally Hansen Dry Kwik</a> ($5.29) did not hold up to its claims. It has a very oily consistency that leaves a residue all over you nails. Most importantly, it chipped instantly even after it had dried completely for fifteen plus minutes.</div>

I haven't yet tried out the <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod6010262">Maybelline Elixirs</a> ($8.99), but I've only heard rave reviews. I instantly gravitated to this limited edition shade, Polished Petal. These lip glosses are smooth, a lot like the NYX Butter Glosses, but a little more sheer. The doe-foot applicator is super plush and the perfect size for any lip. This pale pink has very subtle sparkles that leave a beautiful sheen on the lips and make them appear plumper. I suggest you go out and pick this one up quick before they are all gone!</div>

The <a href="http://www.target.com/p/e-l-f-eyelid-primer-sheer/-/A-13963726">e.l.f. Eyelid Primer</a> ($1) is my favorite primer of all time, and at a whopping one buck it's quite a steal. I have never quite understood why people spend twenty bucks plus on eyeshadow primers. Also, having a drier eye area, most other primers accentuate this, but this holds the shadow while still moisturizing my lids. </div>

The quality of your makeup brushes is just as important to the application of makeup itself. The bristles density and texture help blend and move the makeup flawlessly. The drugstore in the recent years have come out with great quality brushes that don't cost an arm and a leg. <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/a/Real-Techniques/_/N-1z140ys?ciSelector=searchResults">Real Techniques</a> ($5.99 - $17.99), created by <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/pixiwoo">Samantha Chapman of Pixiwoo</a>, are my favorite drugstore brushes. They are incredibly soft and blend my makeup better than my MAC brushes. The blush brush (left) is perfectly tapered. I like to use it for bronzer to blend it out in the hollows of my cheeks. The stippling brush (right) is short and dense, great for cream blush. If you are in need of some new brushes these are a must. </div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qoMl2EaHaPI/UzG0LFL7NzI/AAAAAAAAAzo/J7aM-0UDSqo/s1600/IMG_0149.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-qoMl2EaHaPI/UzG0LFL7NzI/AAAAAAAAAzo/J7aM-0UDSqo/s1600/IMG_0149.JPG" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The BB Cream hype is still in full swing and Benefit just came out with it's take on it. <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod6470025">Benefit's Big Easy</a> claims to be light to medium coverage, helps balance moisture, control oil, and has a liquid to powder finish. It also has ingredients that "soothe & comfort the skin and fight free radicals." All of these claims seemed really promising, so this weekend I decided to give it a go. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Pros:</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- SPF 35, no need for extra products with SPF </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- VERY blendable and creamy, fingers are all you need for a flawless application</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- Controlled oil all day; my T-Zone stayed matte without powder!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>Cons: </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- VERY light coverage and not buildable; if you are looking for coverage look elsewhere, I put two layers on and saw little difference </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- Color selection leans toward lighter complexions; I am not tan by any means and the light-medium was the color for me, so darker complexions will not find a suitable shade</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- Small amount of product; the advertisements make it look like you get a lot of product but you only receive 1.18 fl.oz, I was literally shocked when I took the bottle of the box</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
- Price, $38 is a lot of money for not a lot of product!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Do you need this in your life? No. The cons outweigh the pros for me, especially when it comes to the price and the almost invisible coverage. The drugstore has great BB creams that do the same and more. I still stand by my beloved <a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4960053#">Garnier BB Cream</a> till the end. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love makeup for the purpose of enhancing not hiding. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because of this I think skincare is the most important part of any beauty routine. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I've never had any skin issues (thank you Nana) but I have dealt with dehydrated skin. After years of reading magazines and looking up skin care for dry skin. Unfortunately that made me believe I needed to exfoliate on the regular. This caused red uneven skin tone and often little bumps around my nose and forehead. I decided to make my skin care simpler. The past six months I've started to exfoliate once a week and only use a cleanser at night. This has revolutionized my skin. No more bumps and my skin tone has become more even dramatically. Here are my new favorite skin care items. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3670091">Juice Beauty Cleansing Milk</a> ($22)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Juice Beauty is a certified organic brand. I use the cleansing milk every night, it is light and gentle but still leaves my skin feeling clean and fresh. The fruit extracts keep my skin looking radiant. Tip: If you have an oily complexion you should also try washing only once a day. Over washing dries out your skin which causes you to produce oil in more often and in heavier volumes. In the morning just splash warm water all over. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3670093">Juice Beauty Exfoliating Cleanser</a> ($22)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I am obsessed with the Exfoliating Cleanser! I use this once a week to slough away the dead skin cells from through the week. The exfoliating beads aren't rough and abrasive but makes my skin SUPER smooth. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3000319">Olay Professional Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System</a> (<strike>$29.99</strike> $25.49)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Because I don't have problematic skin I didn't feel the need to shell out hundreds for the Clarisonic. This Olay version still lets me get the deep clean my skin needs. I highly recommend it for those who are on a budget, but if you do have problematic skin I think a Clarisonic would be a great investment tool for your skin care routine. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you found your skin care greats?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'll have to share my favorite toners, serums, and masks in a future post. </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
A huge spring trend seen on the runways of <a href="http://www.glamour.com/beauty/blogs/girls-in-the-beauty-department/2013/09/two-totally-steal-able-genius.html">DKNY</a>, <a href="http://www.allure.com/beauty-trends/blogs/daily-beauty-reporter/2013/09/loose-waves-orange-lips-dsquared.html">Dsquared2</a>, and <a href="http://www.allure.com/makeup-looks/2013/best-spring-2014-fashion-week-makeup-looks#slide=3">Prabal Gurung</a> is bright orange lips. I'll be honest when I saw this trend I was very intimidated. I feel very comfortable in my nude and pink comfort zone, so I went on the hunt to find the best wearable products. Orange has officially been apart of my daily beauty routine and I love it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4950085&_requestid=418317#">Maybelline Color Whisper in Coral Ambition</a> ($7.49)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
To work your way into more bold orange tones start with pinky and coral-y tones.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod2940211#">Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Coralberry</a> ($6.99)<br />
This lipstick has a coral undertone but still an obvious orange hue. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4410269#">Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Rendezvous</a> ($8.99)<br />
Those who are ready to take this orange trend seriously should try this balm stain. It is a true orange with a neutral base so it will work with all skin tones.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod6371230&_requestid=423144#">Urban Decay Ultra Nourishing Gloss in Streak</a> ($20)<br />
This gloss is the newest addition to my orange arsenal. Its perfect for orange newbies. Its a sheer coverage but it can be added on top of any of the previous products for a shinier and vibrant pout.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4141583#">NXY Rouge Cream Blush in Tickled</a> ($6.99)<br />
I added a blush for those want a more subtle take on the trend. NYX cream blushes are amazing! They are super creamy and very easy to blend. I love cream blush in the spring for the dewy look. This tickled blush is orange with a coral undertone. Tip: Use a short stipple brush to perfectly blend the product.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/sugar-lip-treatment-spf-15-P57002?skuId=1448372">Fresh Sugar Tinted Lip Treatment SPF 15 in Sugar Berry</a> ($22.50)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This has quickly become one of my favorite lip treatments. The texture is incredibly smooth and nourishing. To get the perfect amount of tint I like to apply it with my finger to really press and blend it in. The Fresh Sugar line comes in a variety of colors, Sugar Petal is my favorite pink shade. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/product/productDetail.jsp?keyword=JULEP%20Essential%20Cuticle%20Oil%20P375371&skuId=1450667&productId=P375371&_requestid=152475">Julep Essential Cuticle Oil</a> ($18)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I am huge believer in cuticle oils. I don't think they are talked about enough. If you want to really extend the length of a manicure, smooth oil liberally every night. You'll not only see immediate relief to cracked cuticles but it will also prevent future hangnails and chapped skin in general. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod3560025">ORGANIX Light Moroccan Argan Oil Penetrating Oil Fine Brittle Hair</a> ($7.99)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
After years of straightening, blow drying, and other forms of heat styling my naturally curly hair is a little more than just damaged. It's more like sucked of all forms of hair life. In hopes of restoration, the past two weeks I have put myself on a heat styling hiatus and started to embrace the curls. I have been adding a nickel sized amount of this oil with my curling product to help keep the frizz at bay and do a little bit of healing. Even better, its super affordable and smells heavenly!</div>

Although I am not one to wear the same makeup everyday, I do believe every woman should have an "everyday face" that can put on in less than 5 minutes. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's perfect for those days where you might have hit the alarm a few more times than you should have or just a lazy day around the house and running a few errands. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4960053#">Garnier BB Cream</a> ($12.99)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Sometimes I skip foundation all together, but when I want a little coverage to even out my skin tone this is what I turn to. Creamy, easy to blend, and has SPF! For those with oiler complexions there is a formula for that too. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4520011">Tarte Maracuja Creaseless Concealer</a> ($24)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is my new favorite concealer! It has a very full coverage and thick consistency. My eye area is drier than the rest of my skin so this has the perfect amount of moisture to keep my under eyes looking smooth. I wouldn't use this for blemishes though because it takes while to set up even with a powder. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4190147#">BareMinerals READY Bronzer in The Skinny Dip</a> ($24)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
My dull winter skin is still in full swing, so bronzer is a must to warm it up. This bronzer is very pigmented, so a light hand is advised. Using a duo fiber or stippling brush will help give a lighter application. Though, I would tell fairer ladies to look elsewhere. <a href="http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/makeup/bronzing/honey-bronzing-powder.aspx">The Body Shop Honey Bronzer</a> is a good alternative. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.target.com/p/e-l-f-studio-blush/-/A-13586138#prodSlot=medium_1_21&term=elf">e.l.f. Studio Blush in Tickled Pink</a> ($3)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This light pink blush with gold flecks adds a natural glow to the skin. Though the price seems favorable, the blush can be a bit chunky and fades quicker than most. But that's to be expected for the price. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
This is will probably be the only highlighter I will ever ned in my life. The pigmentation, the consistency, the color....everything is just perfect. I like to apply mine on the tops of the cheekbones and on the bridge of my nose with a fan brush.</div>

<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4950093&skuId=2254650&_requestid=415461">Maybelline Eye Studio Color Tattoo Metal Eyeshadow in Barely Branded</a> ($6.99)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you haven't tried the Color Tattoos you are definitely missing out. They are the quickest eyeshadow look you can get and all you need is your fingers to blend it out. My favorite shade is Bad to the Bronze but for lighter days Barely Branded is great for opening up the eyes. If you have oily eyelids that easily crease I suggest using a eyeshadow primer when using the "metal" shades. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod2150076#">Nyx Cosmetics Slim Eye Pencil in Dark Brown</a> ($3.49)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Lightly lining the upper lid will add major definition to your eyes. Black is a little too harsh for this fresh faced look so stick to brown. It will look more natural. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.thebalm.com/whats-your-type-body.html">the Balm What's Your Type? "The Body Builder" Mascara</a> ($19)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This mascara can seem daunting at first. The first couple times I used it it was a clumpy mess. Some mascara you really have to work at the lash line to get it to build volume, but this one doesn't require that at all. Gently and evenly work your way up the lash, and one coat is usually enough unlike most mascara. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod5770237">It Cosmetics Brow Power Universal Eyebrow Pencil</a> ($24)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Filling in your eyebrows can change your whole face, for the better! The hard part is finding a color. This product stops the guessing game because this universal shades works for everyone. </div>

For an easy look all you need is a light color and moisture. Baby Lips are a great combo of this. </div>

Recently I was accepted to be a personal stylist at Keaton Row.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Graphics are a huge trend this spring. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This trend often intimidates people but keeping the rest of the outfit simple doesn't over style the look, but instead looks fresh. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Clothes aren't the only thing that sport the spring color trends.<br />
Here are seven colors that will keep your nails and toes on point this season.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Creamsicle</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.narscosmetics.com/color/nails/shimmer-nail-polish/adelita?utm_source=pepperjam&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=2845" target="_blank">Nars - Adelita</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
One of my favorites for the season! This creamsicle color is a nice fresh change from the coral craze from last year. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Deep Coral</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.butterlondon.com/Lacquers/Jaffa_2.html" target="_blank">Butter London - Jaffa</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Coral is still in full swing for spring but this season it goes to deeper tones. Look for corals with a fuchsia base, this will add great depth. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">"Nairobi Blue"</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.deborahlippmann.com/flowers-in-her-hair" target="_blank">Deborah Lippmann - Flowers In Her Hair</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Thank you Lupita Nyong'o for making this my new favorite color...for life. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Hello Yellow!</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod6410038#" target="_blank">OPI - I Just Can't Cope-Acabana</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Since I'm sure you all are less than likely to wear taxi cab yellow, wearing it on your nails is an easy way to play with this color. It's fun and definitely a statement. Tip: For cooler and lighter skin tones, play with the pale yellows to avoid too much of a sharp contrast. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Bubblegum</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.johnlewis.com/topshop-nails-pastels/p387465?isd2c=false&colour=Keepin%5C'+It+Sweet&s_afcid=af_92295&awc=1203_1393915948_19c797d9880d19c85abd0b7b4c241807" target="_blank">Topshop - Pastels, Keepin' It Sweet</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There are so many different shades of pinks and this spring its all about that true bubblegum color. Not too bright but not too pale. Look for pinks with neutral undertones. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Radiant Orchid</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.essie.com/Colors/Pinks/warm-toasty-turtleneck.aspx" target="_blank">Essie - Warm Toasty Turtleneck</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
If you are finding it hard to wear Pantone's Color of the Year, the nails are a perfect way to experiment with it. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<u><span style="font-size: large;">Mint</span></u></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.essie.com/search.aspx?q=mint%20candy%20apple" target="_blank">Essie - Mint Candy Apple</a></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Mint is a spring classic and I hope it never goes away. To go with this classic style, this fan favorite polish is perfect!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What color are you most looking forward to?</div>

It's my favorite day of the year</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the OSCARS!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
All though I love movies, my biggest reason to watch tonight is for the fashion. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Armani Prive, Dior Haute Couture, Galliano, and many more hard to pronounce designers' gowns float, or fall if you are Jennifer Lawrence, down the slightly wet red carpet this year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Lupita Nyong'o in Prada</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Not only is she now an Oscar winning actress but she has risen to the top of the best dressed celebrities in Hollywood in her debut year. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Emma Watson in Vera Wang</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Metallics were a repeating trend on the red carpet this year and Emma chose the darker side and rocked it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cate Blanchett in Armani Prive</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Nude was another trend and Cate's perfectly embellished gown looked like second skin. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Angelina Jolie in Elie Saab Couture</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On the lighter side of metallics, Angelina's gown made her look glowing.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Jennifer Lawrence in Christian Dior</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Though she may not be the most graceful of celebs (which makes me love her even more), she sure hides it well in her gowns.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anne Hathaway in Gucci</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anne wowed us last year in her <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-2283932/Oscars-2013-Jennifer-Lawrence-Anne-Hathaway-Jessica-Chastain-lead-glamour-light-gowns.html" target="_blank">pale pink Prada dress</a>.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Penelope Cruz in Giambattista Valli</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Penelope usually can do no wrong, but this dress looked a little too cutesy and also a bit disheveled for this glamorous lady.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anna Kendrick in J. Mendel</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The high low bottom ruined what could have been such a great dress.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like highlighter has just made it to the big screen of makeup in the last few years.<br />
Many people I know still haven't taken advantage of its magic abilities to transform your face.<br />
Highlighter is one of my favorite parts about makeup and sometimes I leave the house with only it and mascara. It makes a world of difference.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/high-beam-P1281?om_mmc=aff-linkshare-redirect-Hy3bqNL2jtQ&c3ch=Linkshare&c3nid=Hy3bqNL2jtQ" target="_blank">Benefit High Beam</a> - $26</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This is one of Benefit's most famous products. This liquid highlighter allows for perfect placement and blends beautifully. *Tip: Use your fingers rather than a brush to get a more natural finish. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/ambient-lighting-powder-P377723?om_mmc=aff-linkshare-redirect-Hy3bqNL2jtQ&c3ch=Linkshare&c3nid=Hy3bqNL2jtQ" target="_blank">Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder in Ethereal Light</a> - $45</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This product does it all! Not only can it be used as merely highlighter, BUT also as an allover face powder! And no, I pinky promise you won't have sparkle allover your face. The powder is so finely milled you will be left with an angelic glow. (There are 6 shades to the collection that work for all skin tones!)</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<a href="http://www.sephora.com/watt-s-up-P295206?om_mmc=aff-linkshare-redirect-Hy3bqNL2jtQ&c3ch=Linkshare&c3nid=Hy3bqNL2jtQ" target="_blank">Benefit Watt's Up!</a> - $30</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Product and sponge in one! This highlighter is perfect for any on the go girl. Swipe, blend, and your'e all done (no mirror needed, it's that easy!). </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
This is my ALL TIME favorite highlighter! Perfectly pigmented and leaves an incredibly smooth finish. The golden tone is also perfect to be used as an everyday eye shadow, brow bone color, and to highlight the inner tear ducts. What is even nicer, is that the packaging is HUGE! One of these will last you years, even with everyday use. I have had mine for about 6 months and it looks like I have barely used any. </div>

This copy-cat YSL 'Touche Eclat' highlighting pen from Maybelline is the best drugstore highlighter I could find unfortunately. Though it is labeled as a concealer I would use it only on the high points of the face for highlighting purposes because it can be quite drying under the eyes. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I love knitted headwraps because they are so easy to put on when you need a quick hairstyle. California may not get that cold compared to other states and countries but here in LA it can get pretty windy and my ears turn to icicles, so these headwraps keep my hair in place and my ears nice and toasty. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Parkas are some of my favorite pieces for the fall. They may seem a bit bulky but when paired with skinny jeans and riding boots, you can't go wrong. </div>

<a href="http://www.elizabethmott.com/shop/ipsy/" target="_blank">Elizabeth Mott It's So Big Volumizing Mascara</a> - $19.99</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have been grabbing this mascara quite frequently this week. The formula is super liquidy so it coats your lashes very quickly and holds a curl all day. It says it is volumizing, but I would classify it as more of a lengthening one. It seems to have added fibers which really add to the length. The only thing I don't like about it is that it is not the best layering mascara, because of the wet formula too many layers can give you a spidery effect. </div>
