Cat Eye

Hello my loves!

Today I decided to do a cat eye look for my casual Saturday! Here are the products that I used:

I started off moisturizing my face with Cetaphil 


I followed that with my favorite lip balm EOS


After the moisturizer dried up, I applied my foundation - Revlon's Photo Ready in Rich Ginger


Next, I apply my concealer - Maybelin's Instant Age Rewond in Medium


I lined my eye with an eye shadow primer to ensure that my heavy eyeliner will stay in place - ELF Eye Primer


To complete the face makeup, I applied a powder foundation - Loreal's True March in Sun Beige


I later decided that I would add some eye shadow before applying my dramatic eyeliner, so I went ahead and applied a brown eye shadow onto my crease - MAC Folie


On my lid and brow bone, I added a softer toned eye shadow - NYX Highlight


I, then, went ahead and applied my eyeliner, extending the wing - NYC Liquid Eyeliner


I used a pencil eyeliner to fill in my water line - Starlet Pencil Eyeliner


Now that the eyeliner is drawn on, I applied mascara on both the top and bottom lashes - Benefits They're Real


Moving up to the eyebrows, I lightly filled them in using brow powder - Jordana Brow Powder Dup


Since the eyes are the focal point for this look, I decided to skip the blush, but still decided to contour and highlight - NYC Sun n' Bronze


Giving time for the mascara to dry, I go back with.an eyelash curler for my eyelashes to hold the curl - Loreal's Eyelash Curler


Last, but not least, I decided to go with a bubble gum pink color lip because I couldn't find my purple lipstick!


The look is def universal and you can wear any blush and/or lipstick with it!


Hope you all enjoyed! I will be putting together some party stuff for a baby shower tomorrow, so I will be posting pictures of that soon!

Daily Makeup Routine

My daily makeup routine consists of the following products:

As always, first I moisturize my face with Clinique's dramatically different moisturizer or Cetaphil's moisturizing lotion.


I follow this by applying my favorite foundation, Revlon's Photo Ready foundation in Rich Ginger, with a flat top kabuki brush from Coastal Scents


After, I apply my concealer, NYC Cover Stick, under my eyes, down the bridge of my nose, on my forehead, and chin area.


I set my entire face using Loreal's True Match powder foundation in Sun Beige, and apply it with a Kirkland face brush.


Next, I curl my lashes and apply 3 different mascaras. First, I apply a coat of Benefit's They're Real mascara to evenly coat each lash with the product, then I apply several coats of Cover Girl's Clump Crusher waterproof mascara because it contains wax and will hold the curl in longer than non-waterproof mascara. Lastly, I apply Maybelin's Colossal Cateye Volume Express to separate the lashes.


Staying in the eye area, I apply a thin line of NYC's High Definition Liquid Eyeliner (not recommended to buy, it SUCKS!) on my lid area and follow my upper waterline using Starlet's Pencil Eyeliner in Black.


I, then, move onto my eyebrows. Using Jordana's Brow Powder Duo in Medium, I use the darkest color to underline my eyebrow and the lighter color to fill it in using a liner brush from Kirkland.


Here's the fun part, the blush! Typically I switch it up depending on the day or mood I am in, but I recently bought my first Milani Baked Blush in Fantastico Muave (gorgeous color!) and I fell in love! I applied this using a blush brush from a Sonia Kashuk brush set.


The last and final set is the lipstick. Since it is an "everyday" look, I decided to go with something more subtle. I used Loreal's Saucy Muave (560).


And that completes my look!


Hope you guys enjoyed this post!
