Drugstore Review ~ NYC Sun 'n Bronze Powder in Sunsational

Hey beauties!


Today I'm going to be talking about an exciting beauty find that I just picked up last week!  I'm SO happy with the results of it!  I was a bit skeptical at first because it's so new that there are hardly any reviews on it so I went off of an impulse purchase.  Not to mention that the other shades of the Sun 'n Bronze powders don't have the greatest reviews.  I've been on the hunt for the PERFECT highlighter.  In my book, my holy grail highlighter would have to give a natural luminosity and dewiness without any shimmer or glitter.  I have heard that the NYX mosaic powder in Highlighter meets this criteria, but it's been so hard to get my hands on that I decided to go on another search.  While this powder is labeled a bronzing powder, I can't imagine anyone being able to pull this shade off as a bronzer.  On the bright side, it makes an AMAZING highlighter for most skin tones!

Drugstore Review ~ Wet Brush


Hey everyone!




Today I'm SUPER excited to share with you guys my absolute favorite hair product of this season!  With all of this pool and beach weather lately, there's no doubt that many of you have decided to take a quick swim and have fun.  However, when I come out of the pool I always find that my hair has numerous tangles and knots that are unattractive for post-beach activities and hard to get out with a regular brush due to all of the pulling.  My wet hair always seems to tangle a brush in the hair since it easily tangles.  This new brush is the ultimate solution to combating those hair problems any time of the year!

Drugstore Review~ Eyelash Curler Comparison

Welcome back girls! I have my first review for you guys today! Summer is settling in and I have been going to the pool and lake A LOT. Too often... But even though I love my eyeliner, mascara does not budge in the water and it still defines the eye. I've found a curler that gives me those fluttery lashes!

Kaylie has slowly made me into a mascara girl, and my fail of eyelashes don't cooperate unless I curl my eyelashes. I've been testing out these two curlers recently and the both have their ups and downs, but in the long run, one performs superiorly to the other.

Summer Sun Tag!

Hey girls! Welcome back! As you can see from the title, this is going to be my first tag! I've been watching these on YouTube and I am beyond excited to share some products with you! I have been going back to these products repetitively and had such a fun time putting this together for all of you! These are the products that I LOVE for the season of summer, but I will also have my June favorites up  to show the products I've purchased that I love, or that I've been going back to over and over again in June.

I've been loving the trends that have been taking over this summer! The tousled hair, natural lashes, bare skin, bright shorts, neon nails and laid back-surfer vibe are making a statement! It makes for a simple and comfortable summer. I couldn't ask for more!


Don't miss out! Keep scrolling to see my personal picks!

Drugstore Review ~ Hard Candy Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer in Light

Hey everyone!


I hope everyone is LOVING the summer--I sure am!  Today I have a review on one of my concealers, Hard Candy's Glamoflauge.  With the summer heat I find my skin gets super oily and starts to clog my pores, developing those terrible pimples that we all can't stand.  This concealer is super nice for covering up blackheads and any other imperfections, as it is originally made for concealing tattoos!  How cool is that?

Drugstore Review ~ NYC Matte Me Crazy Top Coat


Oh my goodness, how CUTE is the name of this top coat!  When I first heard about this product I thought it was too good to be true.  I can't think of any matte top coats in the drugstore at the top of my mind.  I absolutely adore the matte look for the summer.  I think it's chic and sophisticated, yet can easily be worn out on a casual beach day.  A matte top coat can easily transform a nail polish into a completely different look, practically doubling the amount of polish you have!  Not to mention, this NYC polish comes with an amazing price tag!

Drugstore Review/Swatch ~Physician Formula's Mineral Wear Blush in Rosy Glow


Hey everyone!  A while back I was wandering the drugstores to find a quick blush to pick up on vacation.  I have completely fallen in love and  have used this blush ever since.  I can't explain how AMAZING this product is!  Too often I buy blushes and find them either too shimmery, too unnatural looking, too chalky, or too hard to blend.  Luckily, this blush doesn't have any of that.  This is my go to everyday blush.  It gives a very natural looking glow and is easy to work with.
