Makeup Monday: Givenchy Mister Light Instant Light Corrective Pen

January 18, 2016


I recently purchased the Givenchy Mister Light Instant Light Corrective Pen. I really like it! I had heard great things about the YSL Radiant Touch luminizing pen but when I tried it on I felt that it did a good job brightening under my eyes but I wanted something that would both brighten and conceal. A worker at Sephora told me to try out the Givenchy Mister Light and I found that it did a great job brightening under my eye and concealing dark circles. I love it and its super convenient and easy to use! I would definitely recommend this product!



Fashion Friday: Free People Dress

January 15, 2016





Happy Friday!! I got this Free People Dress on sale at Macy's and I love it! Its really short so I wouldn't wear it without tights or pants. I really like that It can be worn as a shirt (see this post) or as a dress depending on how you style it! The back is open and super cute, great for fall or spring when its not too cold!

Makeup Monday: Cover Fx Foundation Compare and Contrast

January 11, 2016




I have not used a true liquid foundation since the 6th grade when I bought my first Clinique makeup. The closest thing I've used has been a BB cream. But lately I haven't been happy with the coverage of my powder foundations lately so I went to Sephora to try a new one and it was suggested that I try the Cover Fx Pressed Mineral Foundation which offers more coverage. I was also told that I should consider trying the Cover Fx Natural Finish Oil Free Liquid Foundation which would provide more coverage but its oil free (which is very important to me). I purchased the powder foundation and went home with a sample of the liquid foundation but ended up going back to purchase it a few days later. 


Cover Fx Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation



As I mentioned earlier, I have never really used liquid foundation so this is very odd for me but overall I have been very happy the Cover Fx Natural Finish Oil Free Liquid Foundation! It offers a lot of coverage and I would definitely use it for special events! I don't think I could personally get used to wearing a liquid foundation everyday (especially to class where I really don't like to wear much makeup at all) but if I wanted more coverage I would definitely use this. My only complaint is that even though it is oil free, and I use a mattifying primer, my face still seems to be a little bit shiny by the end of the day.


Cover Fx Pressed Mineral Foundation 


I love the Cover Fx Pressed Mineral Foundation! It offers a ton of coverage especially for being a powder foundation. Its layer able so you have the option to have a very thin layer if you don't want a lot of coverage or use more if you need more coverage. It lasts pretty well but I sometimes do have to reapply towards the end of the day. The fact that its a pressed powder makes it very easy to throw in your purse to use for touch ups throughout the day! I have used it to touch up my foundation when I've worn the mineral foundation but also when I've used the liquid foundation and it works really well!




Overall I am very happy with both of them and I think they both make great additions to my makeup collection but I would personally choose the pressed mineral foundation over the liquid foundation for every day use!

Fashion Friday: Show Me Your MuMu Dress

January 8, 2016



I've been vacationing in Lake Placid, Florida visiting my grandparents! Lake Placid is known as the Town of Murals because there are a whole bunch of murals all over town so we took a little bit of time for a photo shoot! I got this Show Me Your MuMu dress at a trunk show a few months ago and I love it! The pattern is so fun and the dress is so cute and easy! The colors are also super versatile for different seasons! I sized up when I bought this dress because it is very short!
