Beauty Favorite of the Week

Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush: Paaarty

This weeks beauty favorite is the Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in the color Paaarty. Tarte blushes are such high quality and super long lasting. They really last all day long. I've noticed that some other blushes can disappear throughout the day, which can be a pain.
This is such a pretty mauve-y pink. I love using this blush on a daily basis.

Mini Sephora Haul

Mini Sephora Beauty Haul

I stopped into Sephora just to browse and to see if anything caught my eye. Of course a few things did, so I wanted to Share with you the things that I got. My favorite part of Sephora is the checkout line, where they have all the mini samples of really good products. I got a bunch of stuff from the checkout line that I have been wanting to try. 

I love the smaller size of the products because if it turns out I don't like something its not a huge waste of money. So lets get into it...

The first thing I picked up is the Hoola Bronzer from Benefit. This is a soft matte bronzer. I wanted to try it out because I have heard great things about it. The bronzer was $28.

The next thing on the list is a product called Getting Cheeky by Benefit. It is a set that comes with 3 mini sizes of the Posie tint, Sun Beam, and Cha cha tint. I am really excited about trying these out. This was $17.

The next thing I got was the ever-so-famous Beauty Blender. I have heard a lot about this product, so I thought I would give it a try. The beauty Blender was $19.95.


The last few things are some skin care products. These are also things I have heard a lot about from beauty gurus on YouTube. 

The first skin care product I got is the Origins Clear Improvement Active Charcoal Mask. I am really excited to try this and see how it works. The mask was $16.

Next skin care product is the Philosophy Hope in a Jar moisturizer. This was $15.

The last product I purchased was the Caudalie Beauty Elixir. This is supposed to be a makeup refresher, but can be used without makeup as well. This was $18.

I am really looking forward to trying all these products out.

Benefit's Stay Flawless Primer Review

My Review on the Benefit Stay Flawless 15 Hour Primer

I stopped by my local Ulta one day just to do some browsing, I wasn't looking for anything in particular. I stopped at the Benefit counter and saw this new primer on the shelf. It was the Stay Flawless 15 Hour Primer. I had heard some of my favorite youtubers talking about this recently, and so I decided to get it. 

The retail price for the primer is $32. You can get this product at Sephora, Ulta, or the Benefit web site.
I started using this primer right when I purchased it. I really like that is in stick form which makes it super easy to apply. It goes on the skin clear, cool and it doesn't have a scent. When you apply it on the skin it gets a little tacky, this is so that the liquid foundation "grabs" the primer making it last a really long time. It also applies very smoothly.

I have been using my Makeup Forever HD foundation with the primer. The primer makes my foundation look amazing right when I apply it. I would say I have combination to dry skin, and for some reason if I don't use a primer before foundation in a few hours I have no foundation on my face. It completely melts off, so annoying! I also had problems with the Makeup Forever foundation not setting, even applying a powder over top, the foundation would transfer on anything. When I use the primer my foundation doesn't transfer and my face stays matte longer than without the primer.
When I used the Stay Flawless primer my foundation stayed on my face the entire day. I also have a tendency of touching my face while I'm at work, a lot. And even touching my face the foundation did not budge and inch.
The only thing that I would have to say that I don't like about the primer is that I cant do my entire face at once. The primer tends to set really quickly, and if it sets and then I try to apply foundation it makes my skin look really dry, like my skin is peeling off. I wouldn't use this if I'm in a hurry. You need to apply your foundation to one side of your face then the other and so on, which is time consuming.

I have been really liking this primer, it is easy to use, it works great on my skin, and it is perfect for the hot summer months when foundation likes to melt off your face. If you want your foundation to last all day without touch-ups I recommend this primer for you!
