MFBB (My Face But Better) ~ Natural Drugstore Products

Happy Thursday girls!


Whenever I go out and get products, 75% of the time I want something that will look extremely natural and will enhance versus cover my features.  As a result, I'm obsessed with finding some good MFBB products.  To qualify as one, a product has to have zero glitter and shimmer and should be a similar color to the feature you are enhancing.  It should really only perfect instead of add a radical new color.  These products are for a look that appears that you have no makeup on, yet you just look...better.  With that being said, let's get started!

Products I Regret Buying

Hey everyone!

Today I was looking through my makeup collection and remembered a stash I have cumulated over time just to make this post.  While I always do reviews on products I'm about to buy, sometimes I make impulse purchases that take a wrong turn.  Other times the product has great reviews, but it just doesn't work out for me.  Please keep in mind that although these products didn't work out for me, that doesn't mean they won't necessarily work out for you.

With that in mind, let's get started!


Burt's Bees Beeswax Lip Balm




While I've heard a lot of good things about the Burt's Bee's line, this product was just not very good.  I picked this up at Whole Foods for around $3 and only used it a couple of times before I set on another quest to find a good lip balm.  The smell is a little funny, but after a while it is tolerable.  However, the product was almost too waxy to the point where it just coated your lips, but did nothing more.  It sort of just sat there...  I totally prefer my Smith's Rosebud Salve since it has a great scent and actually takes off the dry skin on your lips!

More products after the jump!

NYC Bound ~ Kaylie's Beauty Haul!

Hi lovelies!

I am super excited to be sharing with you guys my recent purchases from New York City!  We had an AMAZING time  scoping out hot deals and visiting our favorite stores in the city.  Today I have the makeup that I bought while I was there.  Eve and I visited every Duane Reade and CVS we could find as well as made some stops at Sephora and Inglot.  While we didn't find much at Duane Reade and Sephora, I definitely spent my money well at Inglot and CVS.


Inglot

YOLO--Haha:)


One of my most exciting purchases was my very first Inglot palette from the store in NYC.  I used what was called the "Freedom System" to choose the colors I wanted and the palette.  I decided on the duo palette which was $7.00 and then purchased my two shadows for $6.00 each to get the palette for a total of $19.00.  While that may seem a little steep for two shadows, they are amazing quality and I didn't know when I would be back to purchase them.  While I was originally going to get one matte and one lid shadow, I decided on getting two lid shadows since they were too gorgeous to pass up.  They have amazing pigmentation and staying power.  Review to come soon!

Keep reading to find out what I purchased at CVS!
