Hello! :) A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that I did a bit of shopping at Target. Their beauty section is the besttttttt. I actually picked up some really good stuff, and I wanted to share my finds with y'all!

I'd run out of foundation, so I had to pick up a bottle of it while I was at Target. I've been using this foundation for the past year now, and I still really like it. It does a fabulous job- I definitely recommend picking up a bottle!

This was a new product that I decided to try, and although I usually love E.L.F. products, I was kind of disappointed by this powder. I was hoping for a translucent powder, but this was really white and I honestly hated it. It left my face looking super chalky. If you're looking for a powder, I wouldn't recommend trying this one. 

 

^^^THESE. EYESHADOWS. OH MY GOSH. They are phenomenal. They're both by Covergirl; the first is in the shade "Champagne" and the second is "Tapestry Taupe". I honestly can't get over the quality of these two shadows. Champagne is now one of my favorite shadows that I own, it's gorgeous and shimmery, and it also works great to highlight the inner corners of my eyes. What I've been doing the last several days is applying Champagne all over my eyelid, and then using Tapestry Taupe in the crease and outer corner. The result is this gorgeous shimmery natural look that I'm in love with. The formula for these shadows is great too, it's not to powdery and it's super pigmented. I really want to go and get some more of these!! Needless to say, I definitely recommend them!

This is another amazing product, the Garnier Fructis Flat Iron Perfector Straightening Mist. It's fabulous! A little information about my hair, it's pretty long, and it has this bizarre wave-thing going on, especially in the back. It's that awkward half straight/half wavy stage, and it's the most annoying thing on earth. So naturally, I want to straighten it, but the waves are really stubborn and do. not. like. to. straighten. So when I was at Target I saw this and thought, "Hey, it's worth a shot. I'm kind of desperate here..." Basically, you spray the product all over your hair directly before straightening. Let me tell you- it works. My hair straightened a lot easier than usual, and it stayed a lot longer. Sometimes it fizzles out after a few hours, but it actually stayed straight for two days. It also smells really good haha xD If you have wavy hair, I would definitely recommend trying this product!

Have you tried any new products lately?

October Favorites!

So, Monthly Favorites posts have been really popular with Bloggers and Vloggers, so I decided that I'd try doing one! You all will have to let me know what you think. I've never done this before, so I'm hoping that you all like it. Give me your opinions! :)

So, my first favorite this month would have to be the Tone Correcting Powder by E.L.F. that I posted about a week or two ago. You can find that post here. :) But anyways, I love that product!!

My next favorite this month has to be Nestle hot chocolate with Halloween marshmallows. Oh. My. Gosh. Have I told you guys about my love for marshmallows? It's intense. I swear, if it wouldn't make me sick, I'd eat a bag a day. That, and the fact that I'd get insanely fat. You all probably think that I'm horribly unhealthy, what with my obsession for all things sweet. I'm skinny, honestly!!! I don't have a picture for the marshmallows, but they're by Kraft. I love those things so much....

Back to beauty products, I've really been loving my Passion Fruit EOS this month. I'm not sure why; I've had it for a while now, but I've just been really obsessed with it for some reason lately. O.o

I used this picture a while back, but it's so cute that I'll post it again!!! :) I love all things purple. It's a problem, girls...

I suppose that my wedges could count as a favorite...before...the betrayal

Next up, we have Dr. Rescue Baby Lips! When we were in Charleston, for some reason my skin and lips were REALLY dry, so I picked up a Dr. Rescue at a Target. I love that thing SO much! I got it in Pink Me Up, and it's a great color for me. Plus, it's super moisturizing, and makes your lips feel fabulous. When you put it on, it makes your chapped lips feel all tingly, and they stop hurting almost immediately! Ah, I love those things! <3

Last, I've been in love with my NYC liquid eyeliner. I've had it for a while now, but I'm not a huge eyeliner person, so I've never really worn it to any extent. For some reason, eyeliner just doesn't look good on me. Ugh. I don't know if it's just because I'm so fair skinned, or if I just have a really bad technique, or what it is. Anyway, so I've used it a lot over the course of the month for different costumes, and I've really fallen in love. The brush is so *TINY* !!!! It's adorable!!! It also makes it really easy for clean application. 

 IT'S SO TINY!!!!!

OH! Music! Let's see, what have I been listening to a lot this month....well, I'm a huge theatre person, and I've been really loving the Broadway Lion King soundtrack. I know, not exactly normal music, but whatever. We've also been playing a ton of classic Halloween music- Thriller, Monster Mash, Addams Family, Ghostbusters, etc. Again, don't judge me. I'm trying to think of some NORMAL music that I can talk about.... Uhm...Oh! I really like the song Black Widow. Do any of you watch Dancing With The Stars?? Oh my gosh! They did a dance to that on there the other day, it was SO cool. You absolutely must watch it. If you don't, I'm judging you. Here's a link-

Again, I'm serious. Watch it!!!!!!!!

Well, I think that's pretty much it. Then again, as soon as I publish this, I just know I'll come up with a million more things that I loved in October. Oh well. I hope that you all enjoyed this post, please let me know in the comments what you honestly though! :) <3

My Bestest Beauty Tip!!

Okay ladies, I'm here to share with you the beauty product that has absolutely changed my LIFE. I'm not kidding here. This one product has made an amazing difference in my complexion, and I absolutely had to share it.

Elf Tone Correcting Powder.

I got it from Target-where else?-for....THREE DOLLARS. Isn't that great? For those of you who don't know, my love for E.L.F. products is eternal. Here's a few more pics..

Sorry for the weirdness of these pictures. I took them from my tablet, so they kind of stink haha. :/ 

So, each of the four colors does something individually, or you can blend them all together. Either way, it's amazing. The yellow cancels dark circles, the pink neutralizes gray, the blue neutralizes orange, and my personal favorite, the green, gets rid of all redness, while at the same time brightens everything up. This powder has honestly saved my life. My old foundation powder didn't blend with my skin well enough, and this is perfect. All I do is apply my liquid foundation like I always would, and then blend this all over my face. My skin has been so much brighter and has appeared to be so much clearer ever since I've worn this. My skin naturally gets red super easily, and I don't struggle with that anymore. It doesn't feel cakey, and it just feels so light. On days when I'm really tired, I can just apply this without the liquid foundation, and I still look alright! Typically, I just do the yellow under my eyes, and the green all over my face. This is honestly my new favorite beauty product by FAR. You lovely ladies have to try it!!! :)

I hope you have a wonderful weekend! <3

Foundation :)

So, for the past few months, I’ve been using CoverGirl Tru Blend liquid foundation and loose powder, and I have to say, I really like it! I use the Ivory liquid, and the Light powder. The liquid foundation does a great job of hiding redness and blemishes, and the powder finishes the look off. I got them both at Target (kind of funny just how much of my stuff comes from Target!) for about six dollars each. I’ve been using it for a while, so I feel like it was well worth the money. Love it! <3
