Top 5
TOP FIVE BEAUTY PRODUCTS.
Here is a list of my top five beauty products that I couldnt live without.
5. Im gonna cheat a little and have two products in one. Theyre kind of a set, but theyre sold separately. And they are:
Too Faced Primed & Poreless
Primer and Powder
Ive talked about these two before. I loooove these two together. They are seriously the perfect combo for perfect skin.
The primer goes on smooth and helps cover everything making your skin look gorgeous.
The powder is so soft, this on top of finished makeup, or just on top of the primer will make your skin baby soft. You wont wanna stop touching it.
They both go on clear, so theyre perfect for any skin type, no matter how light or dark.
4. My number four has got to beeee
Benefit Sugarbomb Blush
What they want you to do to apply this is swirl all four colors around and apply it, but what i do is take the top and right color shown in the picture above and apply the darker pink to the apple and the lighter as sort of a highlight, and it gives really nice color and looks perfect on my skin. But I always use a bronzer with this to really define my face, otherwise it looks unfinished.
3. Numero tres.
Jabot Glamour Lip gloss
This is my allllll time fav lip product. Its a lip plumping gloss. So it makes your lips nice and full and perfect. But its not super tingly like other plumping products. You can feel it, but your not gonna wanna wash it off. It feels kinda like chewing minty gum. And this is the smoothest silkiest lip gloss Ive ever used. The colors are gorgeous. And for $15 you get two colors. Each gloss has a gorgeous color on one end and a nude shade on the other.
2. This little thing is amazzzzing. I looovee these
Benefit Brow Zings
I use this every day. Its perfect to keep in your purse or in a travel bag, its an awesome gift for makeup lovers. Its so convenient and cute. It has the darker cream color you use to define your brow, with the included angle brush. Then the lighter powder you use to fill in and set with the little blending brush. It also comes with a little pair of tweezers. It has everything you need for perfect eyebrows in one little package.
1. Lastly, my number one must have
Lorac Lotsa Lash
This is the most amazing mascara Ive ever used. It has microfibers in it to make your lashes look amazingly full and gorgeously long. The brush is nice and big and volumizing. The black is deep and dark. The only thing I sort of dislike about it is that the little fibers make a mess on the top of the brush and when you clean it off on the tube it can be a little messy too, but its so worth it. This is the best mascara EVUH!
So there is my top five products. It was pretty hard trying to pick five and figure out the order. But regardless, here they are. Please feel free to share with me your thoughts on these products, and share your top five products.

Update.
Hey everyone. I just wanted to do a quick little update on me before I wrote todays post.
Ive been absent for a little while and havent been writing any of my blogs. Im not really sure why, I was just starting to feel like this was all a waste. I was doubting myself, and now I feel so bad about that. I would think to myself "No one reads my blogs anyway, so I dont need to post anything."
But looking at that now I realize how stupid that sounds. And I look at my stats page, and see that even when I dont write I have readers. And even if no one is commenting on my posts, there are still people that are reading. And I kind of feel guilty now and wish I would have just sucked it up, its been since Feb since my last post. :(
But anyway, enough rambling. I really just wanted to apologize to my followers and readers. I plan on getting back on the blog train, and will start writing every day.
And for those who do read my blog, please feel free to comment. Even if you just say you have tried and loved (or hated) something ive written about. A little encouragment makes a big difference. :)
Annnnd lastly, I wanna say a little thank you to everyone who does read my blog :)
