Products in my personal makeup kit!

Thanks for stopping by to check out some of my favorite products in my own makeup kit!

1.) Anastasia's Perfect Brow pencil!
Do any of you have issues with a brow pencil where your hand is too heavy and you end up with too bold of a brow? Well, I really love this eyebrow pencil because it doesn't apply to your brow heavy. It takes a few strokes to get your desired boldness and that is so helpful for those who may not have experience with makeup applications. It is always easier to add more rather than to take away. It applies as a normal pencil but finishes as a powder. Then, the spooly at the other end allows you to shape and tame the unruly brows. It's so perfect! It is a bit expensive if you are used to drug store brands, but every product I mention in here is worth the price. Quality is definitely key. You can pick yours up online or in Sephora.


2.) MUFE Camouflage Cream Palette (Concealer)
This concealer is wonderful just for the fact that it is MUFE. But, other than that, this has several different colors to mix and work with for concealing. "Green?!" you ask? Yes! Green counters red spots. Add the green on a red spot, then put your favorite foundation over that and you no longer have red spots. You can get yours online or in store at any Sephora. They have different colors you can choose from; one with a purple instead of green. Purple counters yellow imperfections.


Color: Stockholm

I recently got this and was floored by the pigmentation of it. It may appear as a blue but it is chameleon. Shifts from blue to purple depending on the lighting you are in. It can also be used as a wet shadow for a totally different look. It is absolutely stunning and is a beautiful color for spring and summer. There are a few other colors. So, go to a Sephora near you and play with some to see which one you like. They are quite amazing.




-The HD Foundation is a medium to full coverage. It is transferable; which means it is easy to be wiped off or smudged. I really love the creamy natural look this gives. You can go totally natural or build it up to night wear. Just make sure to set it with set powder and setting spray.


-The Mat Velvet is a medium to full coverage and it not as easy transferable. It stays where you put it for the most part. They both have pink and yellow tones to them so make sure you ask someone to find a matching color to your skin. Their lighting isn't the best so ask to see if you could step outside to make sure it matches as best that it can in the sunlight.


Color : Oyster Girl

A lot of people have issues with how sticky this product is, but, if you can get past it, it is well worth it. I love how it makes my lips look. Gives it a plump, waxy gloss type look that you may see in the magazine ads. It smells amazing, too. Almost like chocolate. I am just crazy about these and the great thing about these when you are done with them, save the bottle (tube) and return it back to MAC along with 5 other products (6 in total) and you get a free lipstick or eyeshadow depending what type of MAC store you go to. Pro stores you get your choice of eyeshadow or lipstick.
