Beauty Empties: March – April

Hello guys! Sorry for leaving for a few weeks, Christine did a lovely job holding down the fort!

Choosing which college to attend in the fall was such a huge decision and it sucked up all my time. I just committed to a college in California and I could not be happier, so I’m back to blogging!

Anyways, lets jump into the beauty empties:

Makeup:

Bareminerals Touch Up Veil in Translucent – This powder was really lovely and it has spf 15, but no flashback. I would repurchase this in the future!

Physicians Formula Eye Pencil in Black – This eye pencil was just okay, it didn’t stay in the waterline so I wouldn’t repurchase.

Skincare:

Vapour Beauty Clarity Cleansing Oil – I really like this, it is so lightweight and takes off your makeup really well. I already repurchased!

Acure Purifying Fruit Peel – This was amazing, it really got the top layer of dead skin off and left me glowing. I also really love this skincare brand  and I would definitely repurchase!

Pacifica Dreamy Youth Day and Night Face Cream – This was just okay, it wasn’t anything stand out and I’d recommend it if you just need something that will give you lightweight moisture for a cheap price.

Used and Abused Makeup Products Tag

Hello guys! Welcome back to our blog! I’ve been watching these videos on youtube and I absolutely love them so I decided to do one! In flatlays on instagram or blog posts, I never show you guys what my loved and used makeup actually looks like. It doesn’t stay perfect and insta-worthy for long!

Here are four of my most used makeup products that will be empties soon:

1. Juice Beauty CC cream in natural glow

This one is almost gone, the cap is broken, it’s leaking, it is just a mess. I have repurchased this several times, it is truly a great cc cream, holy grail status! I also have a backup for whenever I run out because I love this so much! It looks so natural on the skin and lasts so long. It hydrates my skin and makes it look so healthy.

2. Bareminerals Translucent Veil Powder

 

This is supposed to be a pressed powder, I have no idea when it stopped being a pressed powder and just sort of became a loose powder. I’m just too lazy to repress it when it only has a tiny bit left. This has been dropped, repressed 4 times and carried in my bag almost everywhere, it has definitely served me well and I love this product because it blurs out my pores!

3. ELF eyebrow kit in Taupe

This is the first eyebrow product I ever got, the lid has broken off, it has massive pan and it has certainly been well loved. I really still love this for my brows and I can’t wait to finish it off and buy a new one!

4. It cosmetics hello Light Luminizer

This is something I’ve loved and used for a couple of years, it is so pretty on the skin! It is also almost gone, been carried with me everywhere and I absolutely love it. I definitely will be finishing this up and buying a new one soon!

I hope you guys enjoyed this kind of lighthearted and fun post, if you want to do it and you have a blog, then go for it. See you guys soon!

Yet Another Huge Beauty Product Declutter

Hello everyone! I’ve been going crazy with spring cleaning and I have been decluttering out the things I don’t use. I realized I have so many samples that I don’t use and a lot of products I hold on to for no reason! I recently did one of these so I will link it here for you guys to check out!

So let’s get into the decluttering:

Eyeshadow:

 

After getting myself some really nice eyeshadow I realized that these baked Laura Geller eyeshadows (left) aren’t that pigmented, so I’m letting them go. The color sites mineral shadow on the bottom is really great formula wise but I don’t use those bright green and blue shades. The neutral dr haushka shadows are not something I reach for since I have so many neutral mattes. I also realized that I have all the shades from this lancome palette in my collection so I’m going to get rid of it.

Full Face with only Cruelty Free Makeup

Hello everyone! Welcome back to our blog! I hope you all are enjoying the holiday season, with Christmas coming soon, I’m incredibly excited. I created this look when going to see A Christmas Carol at a local theater, it was relatively formal so I decided to go for a slightly more dramatic look than usual. I’m happy to say that finding cruelty free products in my collection wasn’t a struggle at all!

Face makeup:

For my base, I used a Juice Beauty cc cream, it gives me a bit of coverage and evens out my skin tone nicely, with hydration. Then I set my face with bare minerals translucent powder, which I am loving! I mentioned it in my last favorites. For concealer, I used the lightest shade from this Ellen Tracy palette.

Contour blush and highlight:
