Makeup that Survives 110 degrees

A couple of weekends ago it was hotter than hot here in North Texas. I was one of the crazies that braved the 113 degree heat to go up to the Rangers ballpark to get an Elvis Andrus bobblehead. And while I was only outside for maybe an hour (I got that bobble and then I left, there was no way I would've survived until the game and through it) I was pleasantly surprised with how my makeup held up.

Beauty Favorites Vol. 2

Some time in the last few months I've completely changed up the products I've been using in the morning when getting ready. I'm usually a creature of habit, and 90% of the items I reached for were from the drugstore... somewhere along the way that changed. I'll blame it on Christmas when I got a few things in my stocking, that I'm now obsessed with.

Musings No. 2

With being sick all last week and still working on a balance for school working on the blog and have time to relax between all of that, I decided the easiest post for today/this week would be another musings post. Since these posts are more of a quick catch up post, I thought it would also be the most fun to share what I'm loving recently and just have a chatty post!

Skin Care

It's been a long fought battle between my skin and I. I've struggled with acne going on 10 years now and have probably tried every face wash out there. Now my skin isn't completely clear, but these products are ones I've gone back to and have seemed to make the most difference.

Sneek a Peek: Foundation, Primers, Setting Sprays

So we've now moved beyond the drawer organization of my makeup "collection."  On to what's around it/on top of it. Now usually there are various clips and ponytail holders sitting on top of the drawers but for the most part I just have foundation and primer sitting on top of it. And since this is more like face makeup, I wanted to include what I put on before my makeup and what I use to take off my makeup since it kind of all goes together!

Sneak a Peek: Makeup Brushes

Today's addition to my makeup collection series is all about makeup brushes. Because by now you've seen over half my makeup collection, it's about time to take a look at what I use to apply it all. Along with seeing what makeup people use, I like to see what their go to brushes are to apply it. Some of these brushes were bought individually, some came in sets, some came with a palette but I'll link everything I can, tell you which ones I reach for the most and what I use them for.

Sneak a Peek: Blush/Face Products Drawer

This is probably my favorite drawer of all. The Blush/Bronzer/Face stuff drawer!I absolutely love blush. Of all the products I use, blush is probably the one I rotate through the most as far as using different colors day to day.Don't get me wrong, bronzers are nice but they kind of all look the same for the most part and don't catch my eye.However there are a million and one blushes out there and I think I need them all.

Sneak a Peek: Lipstick Drawer

My favorite beauty YouTube videos are when they show their makeup collections. I think it’s fascinating to see what they have and use and what they have and just hold on to. I definitely don’t have a huge collection, like I said before I stick to certain products for so long that I don’t change much in my routine or change it often. But I thought it would be fun to share, category by category.

Follow Up

A month ago I wrote a post about new beauty products I came across. Since, I've had a solid month of trying them out, I decided I'd write a follow up post talking about what I ended up reaching for the most and what I ended up liking and not liking.
