Lipstick Of The Week

So I do a lot of social media browsing on my down times and I absolutely love looking at other artists Instagrams, reading blogs and watching Youtube videos. I stumbled across Emily (emilynoel83 on Instagram) and I  absolutely loved that she posts her "lipstick of the week" I wear lipstick every single day unless I don't leave the house which is mostly likely to happen at least one a week because lets face it, this girl is a homebody. So I thought it would be fun to share weekly what I've been wearing. I'm combing last week with this week because I've been at home sick in bed for two days (and going stir crazy - so HELLO blogging in my pajamas with hot tea and a large blankie)

Feb Faves!

Well... it's been a hot minute since I popped onto this little blog of mine and shared any new goodies! I saw browsing Instagram this morning over morning coffee as I always do and saw a few February Favourites posts so I thought I would jump on the band wagon and here we are!

 

Tarte Cosmetics - Tartelette In Bloom Palette

This palette is literally every neutral makeup lovers dream. This palette comes with 12 incredibly beautifully pigmented shadows. Honestly it's the only palette you would need in your collection. So many versatile makeup looks are available to create with the range from shimmer shadows, to mattes and lights to darks. And the packaging, as always from Tarte, is literally the cutest

Maybelline - Master Prime Blur + Illuminate

I'm addicted to trying new primers. Especially ones that have the word "Illuminate" in the name/and or description AND ones that are affordable. Since I have extremely dry skin I always want products that help make my skin glow and stay hydrated. This primer does both those things wonderfully and wears really well for long periods of time under my foundation

Marc Jacobs Beauty - Remarcable Foundation

How can I sum up my love for this foundation? It's EVERYTHING. Actually no, I'm lying. It's not everything because the price tag on this babe is ridiculous. Running at 69.00 per bottle. The bright side to this is that this foundation is extremely full coverage so you need very very little, so this bottle will definitely last you a while. It applies so smoothly and doesn't dry out my skin even with it's thicker formula. Hands down favourite foundation I have ever used.

Tarte Cosmetics - Tartiest Gel Liner

I love black gel liner and I typically use Maybelline Gel Liner, which I do still love but I had seen a lot on this product online and I really wanted to see if it was worth the hype. It is. The black is an intense black and applies really easily with the little brush it comes with. Down side is the tube. I don't understand it. Why Tarte? Why? I waste so much freaking product this way. For this reason, although it is in my favourites because I love it - I will probably stick to my Maybelline which comes in a pot

Colourpop Cosmetics - Ultra Matte Lip in Tulle

I'm obsessed with all of Colourpops Matte lippies, 95% of the time I'm wearing one of their shades. I love how long wearing they are on the lips and how comfortable they are (for a matte lippie anyways) but lately Tulle has been my #1 go to shade for evening wear. It's a dusty mauve burgundy shade. Looooove 

Luxie Beauty - JadeyWadey180 Glam Set

So Jade is one of my favourite beauty bloggers and I will admit I bought these brushes 50% based on that and 50% based on the freaking Nose Perfector Face Brush (I'm addicted to nose contouring) because her photos and videos looked incredible, I wasn't sure what to expect but I love all 3 brushes that came in this set. They are all dual ended. The nose perfector is amazing to apply cream contour with one end, and blend out with the other. The Chisler has a buffer and a large fan brush, I apply my bronzer with the fan side and foundation with the buffing end (my least favourite of the 6 options) The Shaper is a huge staple in my brush collection as I use one end to apply my concealer, and the other end to apply my powders
