You all know I’m a product junkie, so I thought it was fitting to kick off the new year with my fav beauty finds.
These are all items that I have in my personal makeup bag!

1. Rosebud Salve : This time of year, it’s important to keep that skin (and lips) hydrated. It’s one of the first things I apply when I wake up and when I go to bed. During the day, I’ll add some lip liner (typically half red) and then fill in with this lip balm.
2. Smash Box BB Cream : My absolute favorite. I’m still using the same tube that I purchased in September, it goes a long way. It’s an SPF, oil-controlling, facial primer. Apply after your face lotion and before powder. It’s wonderful.
3. MAC Fluid Line : Well, I’ve tried my fair share of liquid, brush applied, liquid liners (from Bobby Brown to Laura Mercier). My absolute, no-smudge, no drip goes to Fluid Line. I apply with a slanted brush.
4. Make Up For Ever Lift Concealer : Seriously? Have you tried this? It won’t let you down… it’s eye firming, reduces puffiness AND it acts as a full coverage concealer. Enough said.
5. Lorac Tantalizer Highlighter & Matte Bronzer Duo : I love this product, I apply the highlight above/ right at the cheekbone and the bronzer below and then infill with blush.
6. MAC Paint Pot : I always go back to this baby. She’s a goodie. I’ve tried lots of eye shadow primers and this it it, folks. Seriously, keeps that shadow in place and enhances the colors beautifully. I use color “paintery”… it goes well with any shadow combination.
7. Make Up For Ever Aqua Eyes : Love this liner. I apply this in my water line. It’s the bomb and it’s long lasting.
8. Makeup Up For Ever Duo Mat Powder Foundation : Best powder – omg! Full coverage, but it doesn’t enhance fine lines like some full coverage powders do. Plus it’s just good for your skin.
9. Urban Decay Naked Palette : No need to ever own any other shadows, this does the trick! I prefer the first palette over the second.
** I pulled the majority of these links from Sephora… I recommend going there or ULTA so that you can receive the free perks! The more you spend the more perks! **
