I have so much to share!
There's been so much new makeup in my life I honestly don't know where to start.
Ok so technically I just picked up the newest
Anastasia Beverly Hills Glow Kit like last week but I'm absolutely in love. I mean, have you seen this beauty? I love how they focused on different shades of golds all while giving you a nice variety of colors at the same time. I'm alllll about that golden glow so
Golden Dawn is easily my favorite of the bunch. It's this stunning true gold with glitter bits. I love it. The formula is definitely different from some of her other
Glow Kits but I haven't completely decided if that's a good or bad thing yet. I'll get back to you on that in my review. Make sure to stay tuned for that. While we're on the subject of
ABH I can not get enough of her stick foundation in
Amber. I've actually been wearing it quite a lot over the past few weeks. It matches my skin tone perfectly, provides light to medium coverage but is still build able and manages to not look cakey at all but very natural and skin like. I freaking love it. By the way I did pick up
Cool Golden. I haven't figured out which one I prefer yet. Or which one matches me better so stay tuned for that as well.
(Full post HERE) I've been on the hunt for a new contour brush for agessss and I think the
Sigma F77 Chisel and Trim may finally be the one. I love how small and easy it is to carve out my still nonexistent cheekbones ( tear! ). And I love how easy it is to blend. Literally effortless. I'm still all about nude, glowy makeup so of course I've been rocking
Kylie Cosmetics Brown Sugar like it's my job. All day errrry day. When
Kylie said this is the perfect nude for darker skin tones she was not playing ya'll. I've seen this on countless deeper beauties and they all looked stunning. You did that
Kylie. I love it. I picked up a few new liquid lipsticks from
ColourPop (more on that later) and have fallen head over heels in love with
Saigon, this gorgeous warm toned true red. I think this might be the one to get me out of my nude phase you guys. I've worn it already three, maybe four times since I got it. It's such a stunning and vibrant color. You need it! There's a new
MAC blusher in town and I can not get enough.
Sunbasque is this super pretty bronze with a teeny tiny hint of red color and currently my new go to. It's so perfect and so ideal for women of color. That paired with
ABH Golden Dawn oh em gee!! A golden goddess' dream. Haha. I'm sure you'll be hearing about it more. Last but definitely not least is
OPI Never a Dulle Moment, this really pretty mustard yellow nail polish. It's fresh it's new and totally not something I would normally opt for. I think that's why I love it so much. And it looks so beautiful against my still tanned skin. What have you been loving as of late?!
