Light-Weight Summer Makeup

In the summer, it's too hot in Florida to cake on the makeup so I like to switch up my routine once June hits. I changed my foundation, bronzer, eyeshadow and blush color this year.
In the summer, it's too hot in Florida to cake on the makeup so I like to switch up my routine once June hits. I changed my foundation, bronzer, eyeshadow and blush color this year.
My go-to foundation is normally Mac but for the summer I like something a little lighter so I switched to Beautycounter Tint Skin Hydrating Foundation. It's light but still covers up dark spots. It is NOT full coverage which is why it is good for the summer. A lot of times I already have a nice base tan so this evens everything out without caking it on and melting off in the heat!
Instead of using full-on eyeshadow I switched to a rose gold eyeliner. I saw a really expensive one advertised on Facebook but I wanted to try it first so I found it on Amazon. The one I use is no longer on Prime so I am linking two others here, L'Oreal (I love their products) and Wunder2 which is a little more pricey. I love it because it brightens my eyes and makes me look more awake haha. I actually applied it on as liner and shadow and got so many eye color compliments. It really makes the blue pop and looks like a natural summer, beachy eye.
I switched my bronzer to a color a little more bronzey; Beautycounter Radiant All Over Bronzer, OR if you want a less shimmery look there is the Matte Bronzer. There are multiple color shades in both to match your skin color. I use this to line my jaw, my forehead and my nose before adding my highlighter.
Lastly, I changed up my blush color to something a little more pink. I usually use Nectar but for summer I am using Guava. Nectar has a little more of a peachy, orange tint where Guava is mostly pink and vibrant for summer.
My go-to lips are still the same for summer. Buxom Dolly is my daily go-to. It's a natural pink color. And my two dressier colors are both Smashbox Always On Matte; Drivers Seat and Thrill Seeker. I use Too Faced Lip Injection everyday while I am doing my makeup to puff up my pout. I have tried many lip plumpers before, this one really is the best and so worth the money.
XO, Cheers!

About 4 years ago I got clip-in extensions and loved them but they became a pain to put in everyday so I stopped using them almost all together. Then a few months ago I found DonnaBellaHair.com and wanted to try the tape-ins, since that is what my stylist was used to doing. I had her review the colors to see what would work best and we decided on 12/600 balayage. I always liked a darker root and lighter ends.

I fell in love with the Jaclyn Hill x Morphe palette when I was at my sisters and she had it. The pigments are like nothing I have used before. For blue eyes, tans and browns are the best to make the eyes pop and this palette has a variety of choices in this color scope. Today I want to talk about the colors I use for my go-to eye makeup.
I always start with a flat neutral color from the center of the corner of the lid to about halfway across. I also use the Jaclyn Hill x Morphe brushes to apply the shadows.

Ever since I was born I have been bleach blonde everywhere and my eye brows were no exception. It's nice having light hair on your legs, arms and head of course but the brows... HELLO they look neglected. I have been filling them in brown for years. I tried pencil, gel, shadows, you name it and I tried it. The best pencil I found was the IT Cosmetics Universal brow. I have the thick one and the thin one. I got my technique down pretty well after watching a makeup tutorial (Nikki Tutorials) but once quaratine happened and I did not wear makeup like at all and did not want to color them in everyday I was like ok I am over this. I took to my IG to get some advice and my girl Patty told me to go to Brows and Beauty A Go-Go and see her friend Carrie. I immediately called and made an appointment for what I thought was microblading... turns out, it was not!
