New Year, New Products

 

We are pushing right into the new year and so far for me it’s been a great one. A lot more winter weddings in 2014 and tons of beautiful brides coming up in the spring. I like to start off the new year with different beauty purchases. So far this year here is what has entered my kit:

Ardel lashes- I like the natural band so it blends and I play on the border of the natural look into dramatic!

Elf: My go to cheap goodies. They are great quality but affordable. I love their lipsticks for brides they are easy size to carry on the wedding day and they come in perfect “bridal shades”. I just got two new brushes , the fan and the small blending and so far they are both AMAZING. Soft on the skin and they make applying easy.

Nars: Duo Blush and highlighter mini pack. Both colors are subtle but georgous. You have to really layer it on if you want a dramatic effect. The highlighter has a golden tone to it so its great for my indian clients. The rosy blush literally looks good on everyone. I also got their liquid liner pen. I don’t like using it on myself for some reason but I love using it on my clients. Its one of those products that’s is better when you put it on someone else.

Eco Tools Brushes: I have always loved these brushes since I’ve been in high school. They are so soft on the face and they stay that way even after multiple washes. I got the slanted spounge brush for foundation and an eye brush kit which is also fantastic.

LAS BUT NOT LEAST, You Rebel by Benefit: This has been my go to tinted moisturizer for about 8 years AND THEY DISCONTINUED IT 🙁 I swear it is the only thing that works on my skin that actual really has some color in it. I’m super dry and this stuff is like a miracle. I had to go on ebday and find someone who was selling them so I bough two. Devastated ;(

What are your new beauty purchases of 2014?
