I know that the "natural brow" has become more of a trend lately, and I have to say that I'm loving it. I've always been messing with my brows and trying to change the way they look, but really, less is more when it comes to filling them in and trying to reshape them. I've found that the fewer products you use and the fewer strokes you make, the less there will be room for uneven, catastrophic brows.
I've been using a couple Anastasia Beverly Hills products and just recently bought the Brow Wiz pencil which has been way easier than the pomade. I was using the pomade for a while and felt like it maybe intensified my brows more than I like them to be.
With this Brow Wiz pencil, I can make smaller strokes on my brows and have it look way more natural. I really love how it is a little waxier and the little spoolie on the other end is very helpful. I don't know if there is an exact "trick" persay, but I know that you do not need to outline your brows drastically to achieve this look.
I also know that when you groom, pluck or wax your brows, you don't want to do it so much that every single stray hair is gone. Since the look is natural, you should leave some hairs on the outside of the brows. I know I really like this natural brow look, but I was wondering what all of you think. Are the more natural and minimal makeup looks seeming to become the new thing?
Happy Halloween everybody! I thought I would do a pretty relaxed post for this spooky holiday with my updated fall skincare. It has been a forever evolving routine and a number of skincare products I've used over the past couple of weeks have been treating my dry skin and I think I have found a solid few products that treat my skin the way I want them to.
It's hard to say if I will stick with it because I am always wanting to try new products, but right now these have been some very effective couple of skincare products. All of these are sample sizes, but there are full sizes of these products that I think are enough because a little goes a very long way when it comes to any type of skincare product.
I take cleansing my face pretty seriously because I have sensitive skin prone to breakouts and it's crucial to make sure you are fully cleansing it, especially when you wear makeup. The First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser is a great, light cleanser for sensitive skin and for all skin types. I love how it foams up a bit and really gets into my pores and takes off all of my makeup. It has a very fresh and clean scent and is also hydrating for dry skin.
Along with my face cleanser, I have been applying this Lancome Renergie Micro-lifting Cream to firm my face and leave it soft and smooth. It's a very small sample of a very expensive product, but I have honestly been loving it so much. I don't know if I can replace this product so I might have to find something that will replace it once I use it up.
My eyes recently have been incredibly dry and I have yet to find out why. It may or may not be a specific product I am using, but this Tarte Maracujá C-Brighter Eye Treatment has done wonders for making my eyes less red, itchy, and dry.
When I went to Sephora, I was able to redeem my reward points for a sample product and I asked what the lady at the cashier preferred and she raved about this Korres Wild Rose Sleeping Facial. It's been a while since I have used a very heavy moisturizer and this one really repairs your skin overnight. I kind of use it like a spot treatment at my driest areas and by the morning, they are completely smooth.
If I still want to treat my face more, I will use my favorite exfoliating cleanser, the GlamGlow YouthCleanse. I have had this for a while now and love it when I really need to scrub off everything and start with a clean slate. It really helps get rid of lines or uneven texture on the skin and my face feels very supple and fresh after I use this.
I hope this was a nice little updated skincare regimen for you all. Like I've always said, my skincare continues to change and I am always up for trying out new products. You never know when you might find the right products that work for you. For me, it's been a long journey, but I love using different products for my skin that might become my favorite. What are your plans for this spooky holiday?
A regular trend I have been noticing throughout the fashion industry is lots and lots of patches on clothing, specifically florals. I have been attracted to the simple look of having just a basic tee with some really detailed embroidering.
I feel like my style is changing, and it constantly does. The more I have noticed in my wardrobe are basic tops with floral patches and stitching, more vibrant pieces, and very relaxed fit clothing. I have always enjoyed clothes that are just a little bit bigger on me: the boyfriend fit to be exact.
I have the freedom to move around and tuck my tops in without uncomfortably tight sleeves and necklines. I recently bought this rose applique tee from H&M. H&M and many other higher street retailers are getting on top of the current trends.
I have also been shamelessly obsessed with my John Lennon sunnies. For my face, in particular, these shades flatter round faces so much, if you can believe it. They're simple and edgy—I'm all about it.
I just paired these two with classic ripped black jeans and my brown leather Chelsea boots. My fall look this year isn't as berry lip or scarf filled as I had hoped because the weather is still 70 degrees. I think winter will let me get more into my fall wardrobe. It's been a struggle transitioning with my closet this year because the weather has been so unpredictable. Does anyone feel the same way?
