Loving lately

Hello once again everyone.
I feel I have to give a slight explanation as to where in the heck I went just over a year ago. I really didn't go anywhere to be honest, I just began to let life with my daughters and family take over, which subsequently put blogging at youtube on the back burner. 
Quite some time has passed now obviously but around Christmas I began to seriously miss my once beloved hobbies, and now I am finally biting the bullet and returning to my blog with a renewed energy and excitement!

Now that those formalities have been taken care of I will jump into my first post after being MIA, and what better way to begin than to talk about what I have been loving as of late. 


1. Urban Decay Naked Basics - I've had this since May (birthday gift to myself) and can say with all honesty I use this at least 4 days a week. I love every shade, especially because they mainly matte - big thumbs up for matte eyeshadows in my books. 

2. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder - I don't have much to say aside from this being such an old and timeless favorite of mine - I always seem to come crawling back to it, it's just too lovely (and affordable) not to.

3. Benefit Hoola Bronzer - Matte and lovely, what more can I say?

4. Mac Melba Blush - An oldie but goodie in my books! I find I always reach for this when I have any doubts about which blush to choose. I find it to be perfect for every day use, and is subtle enough to be used with a darker eye look.

5. Benefit Watts Up Highlighter - Received this from Sephora in my birthday gift but did not touch it for months, then all of a sudden recently I tried it out and haven't looked back since!

6. Bare Study Paint Pot - I've always come back to this, because you can never go wrong with a shimmery champagne shade on the lid.

7. Benefit Erase Paste - My under eye circles worst enemy!

8. Tarte BB Tinted Treatment 12hr Primer - I believe this deserves a whole post of it's own, but for now I will say my skin has never loved me so much and I cannot live with out it!

9. Benefit They're Real Mascara - I swear this has been the most hyped mascara pretty well ever in history, and fortunately it is totally worth the hype. This stuff never leaves my everyday makeup bag.

10. Maybelline Line Stiletto - This is not only my favorite drug store liner, but one of my favorite liners when compared to high end options as well. So black, so easy to apply, so amazing.

11. Smashbox Photo Finish Lid Primer - I am so happy I decided to try this, my oily eyelids tend to crease easily and I've found other brands of lid primer to not work as well as I'd hoped but this has become my daily eye base (both alone and under shadows).



If you are interested in any of the products I listed above and would like an entire post devoted to reviewing any of these items I would love to do so, just let me know in a comment!
