June #Favorites!

Hey lovelies! Here are a few products I have been using and loving this month.

Beneath Your Beautiful. A zipper SFX step by step tutorial #GOREgeous

Hello Beauties!

I'm really excited to share todays look with you all! Let's start with a little back story. I like to call this look "Beneath Your Beautiful". Inspired by the Labrinth song. I love the physical interpretation of stripping the mask of makeup off to see the inner beauty. errr sorta..... I decided to go for an intense glamorous pink for the eye look, to exaggerate the beauty that we are taking away. It's what's inside that really counts right?  So let's jump in!

Spring Makeup Make OVER!

Why hello there lovelies!
As a california girl, the heat has hit us here FAST, and in order to stay cool and cute in that heat i'm doing a spring makeup make over! We're going to be talking about what i'll be restocking my makeup bag with to stay looking so fresh and so clean clean (Outkast anyone?) and some other suggestions of what might work for you!

Foundations!

Now we have to start this with foundation because who cares if those brows are on fleek if your face looks as if it is melting off!

I have got a liquid foundation, powder foundation, and a BB cream option for you guys. Let me know which YOU prefer when the heat hits in the comments down below!

EYES! 

These are some of my favorites that cover all the bases of fun, quality, cute, and long lasting. That's all a girl really needs right?

Lip colors!

Lip colors are one of the products I get most excited about changing up for different seasons. So for spring i'm hiding away those dark purple, red, and berry shades and busting some super flattering light pink, orange, and nude!

Bronzer! 

Now this one is mostly in here because I have major #palegirlproblems. No matter how long i'm in the sun I CAN NOT get a tan, so with these I can get that summer glow I envy so much!

I'm also a huge contour addict, so i'm showing you guys both bronzing and contouring products.

Thank ya'll so much for reading, and I want to hear about YOUR spring make overs in the comments below. You can also tweet me photos of your spring looks @notsaige !

MUAH!

January Favorites!

*Casually ignores the fact that I never blog*

Hey guys! In honor of the first month of 2015 I thought I would tell you guys about my favorite products from the start of this lovely new year.  I want ya'll to tell me what YOU have been loving this month in the comments below!

Nars Sheer Glow foundation

I recently took the HUGE step of changing my every day foundation. Yes this is a very big deal to me. I had been using the Urban Decay Naked Skin foundation for probably 2 years, which in makeup is forever, of course. Now I still have a passionate love for that foundation, but I was feeling like trading it in temporarily for a more full coverage winter foundation. I have dry skin so the "glow" in this foundation makes my skin look super healthy but it does not have any sparkle/glitter in it (why do companies ever do that to foundations, ew).  So yay for glow without discoballface.

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette

Not much I even have to say about this, ya'll know what's up. I'm loving the pink - plum colors, because they go super well with the thing i'm going to talk about next which isssss....

Dark lips

This is a little more general, but I have been obsessed with dark lips. I love just putting on some light eyeshadow, winged liner and some inteeense lips. Some of the colors I have been wearing are

Buxom- Menace

Rimmel - Bordeaux

OCC - Black Dahlia
Hourglass  - Icon

J Cat wonder lip paint - Red Potion

and anything else I can get my hands on.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder

Everyone has been loving these, and before I tried them, I really did not believe they did anything (other than cost too much). I have been converted. I have the color Etherial light because I am mega pale and it looks the best on my skin tone. It is the most natural no glitter glowing highlight around. Your skin looks healthy, glowing, and imperfections just seem to be blurred. 10/10 worth the price.

Tarte Lights Camera Lashes

This is a rediscovery of an old favorite. I got a mini as I believe a 100 point perk from Sephora, and I am in love....Seriously. At this time it's feeling like the greatest mascara to ever grace my lashes, but I kinda always feel that way about current favorite mascaras. So rediscover guys! Try those things in the back of your drawer, and find some hidden gems.

Random favorites:

PINTEREST. 

Oh my goodness. How am I so late to this party? Like I must have been sitting on 101 traffic to be THIS late for something so amazing. I think I was just rebelling against the popularity but screw that. They have EVERYTHING. So now I'm addicting and all of my free time is gone:/

Bright Eyes

New thing for the blog: Artist of the month!

This month's artist is Bright Eyes. Nothing new of course, but I've been loving the band this month like crazy. I'm strange and absolutely love sad sounding music, and it doesn't get much sadder sounding than Bright Eyes. If you haven't heard the song Lua, you must. 

And last but not least, a new look! This month I died my hair a muuuch darker brown and I am so happy with it. I've always gone lighter with my hair, so I was definitely in need of some change. Let me know what you guys think!
