THE FACE | Makeup Removal Essentials

Number 1 rule for makeup junkies out there : ALWAYS TAKE OFF YOUR MAKEUP at the end of the day! This is the most common mistake every women commit. I'm not gonna lie, I'm one of them! Especially after a long night out, or a long work day, cleansing my face is the last thing I think of! I've gotten better now and never miss a day without cleansing my face! *wink*

Current Favorites: WINTER PRE-MAKEUP BASE

Winter season takes a toll on everyone especially when it comes to skin. The environment feels too dry, and cold which sucks out all the moisture off your skin leaving it dehydrated and dull. It can also cause tendencies where your skin condition changes. My skin type is normally oily, but during winter season it changes to combination oily/sensitive. 

CURRENT FAVORITES : On-the-go Products

I don't typically follow trends or tags but after watching / reading so many favorites, I thought I would share mine too! My favorites are basically the same except for maybe one or two products that are in rotation depending on what I feel like. I used to be a fan of full coverage, super matte look mainly because I was suffering from bad acne (biggest insecurity ever) and wanted to mask that all away.

Perfect Blur in 5 Seconds!

Blurring primers is such a thing in beauty world. Lots of makeup and skincare brands are coming up with primers that visibly blurs wrinkles, pores, imperfections, and mattify all at the same time. I have to admit higher end brands are up there with the skin perfecters and drugstore rarely hit the mark. 

THE FACE: BB Cream on a Budget

First craze in the makeup world was when BB creams went international which was 4 years ago (don't quote me on that lol). It is suppose to be a skincare and foundation in one. I was very skeptical about this whole BB cream jazz. The claims were vey high, the most common are: to even skin tone, minimize appearance of pores, improve skin texture, and the list goes on and on.
