May Beauty Favorites 2012


My makeup this month has been super minimal. Being in New Jersey the humidity has been out of control, especially at work, so I have been wearing makeup that can stay on all day.

  • Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation/Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer- I have been mixing the two of these since the tinted moisturizer doesn't give me the coverage I want and the foundation gives me too much coverage for the summer. Mixing equal parts together has been really good for my skin and I don't need a blush when I do this since my cheeks are naturally so flush.
  • Cover Girl Lash Blast Volume- I love this mascara. It stays on all day and won't smudge all over my face. It gives amazing volume to my already long lashes. 
  • Tarte Lip Surgence in Enchanted- This is one of the greatest lip products ever. I feel like I can put it on at work and not have to worry for a while. Since I am becoming more tan I feel like my lips are blending in with my face more so I like having the pop of color on my lips without having to fuss about it too much. 
  • Sheer Cover concealer- Best concealer I have tried in a while. I got it sent to me in the Influenster Spring Beauty VoxBox and I am so happy I did. I really like that it has two tones so you can mix your perfect shade. I mostly have been using the lighter one to brighten up my under eye area.
  • Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadows in Skinny Jeans & R.S.V.P.- I am obsessed with these. I will wear R.S.V.P. all over the lid by itself or put Skinny Jeans in the outer corner with R.S.V.P. over the lid and blended into the corner. This is going to be my go to summer look.

April Favorites 2012

I know there aren't a lot, but I have been trying to be good about buying makeup products since I am going on vacation in 2 days :)

  • Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation in Rose Ivory- I have been wanting to try this forever so when I ran out of my MUFE HD foundation I figured I would give this a try and it is amazing. It covers so well and lasts forever on my skin.
  • MAC Blush in Pink Tea- This is a wonderful pale pink blush. It gives such a nice natural flush to the cheeks
  • MAC Lipstick in Watch me Simmer- In love. It is the perfect shade for spring and summer and I plan on wearing it a lot in Vegas. I just wish I could have gotten a backup.
  • Stila Smudgestick in Stingray- I went to Ulta to find a new black liner for my waterline since lately mine had been smudging a lot and ending up on my cheeks pretty much. I fell in love with this the first time I tried it. It is creamy and lasts a long time and is super black.
