Revlon Colorstay Foundation

Ok so I have been using this foundation for over 3 yrs now. I always  go back to it, even if i switch foundations for a different one. What I have noticed with it is this. 1 ) it is about $10-$12 depending on where you buy it. I normally buy it from target. 2) it has a medium coverage which I like. Since I have old acne scars to cover. 3) you have to apply it with a makeup sponge or fingers to get the best coverage. I haven't used a makeup brush yet with it. I always have to apply a facial lotion prior to foundation application because it tends to dry very very fast. So I need the lotion on my face to make application easier and so it doesn't dry so fast.
I use #340 early tan, for combination skin tone.

I used the revlon colorstay #340 here , and I also used my happy glow bronzer on top of it :)

 I bought the bronzer one. They have a light bronzer and normal version. I got the normal one since it was darker. It adds a pretty shimmer but nothing over powering as you can see in my pic. However it wont make it look like you have a deep dark tan. For me it wasn't the case anyway. But I love it.

I also used the Benifits high beam on my cheek bones. I really LOVE this stuff :)

Me on an every day look

Im a mom of 2 wonderful kids. Im a full time mommy, full time wife. I keep things very simple when I dont have any "real" plans. If im not going out with my husband for dinner, or a date night with him or friends, I dont do much to my hair or outfit. I live in sweats,yoga pants, t-shirts, hoodies. I dress up for the nights out of course :) but when taking care of a 1 yr old who spills everything and when making breakfast,lunch,dinner, and doing gardening I just perfer to be dressed down. However my makeup always is done nice and pretty! Im a girly girl so its the one thing I do everyday.
Here is my basic look. Pulled back hair, pretty makeup :)

Tanning

So I know I have a few of these blogs out there.. but here I go!

I bought the sun labs tanning lotion. Both times I have put it on it has not been a smooth application! First time the gloves I bought just made the application really hard to do. So I bought different gloves and it was just making it look really streaky. So I took off the gloves and used my hands. I washed my hands every time I would switch to a different part of my body to apply the lotion. Im hoping my hands dont become orange lol

To make matters worse I didn't realize i had burned my back the last time tanning in the salon and it peeled. So when I had my husband applyed the lotion there is a huge spot where I had peeled.. ekkkk!

I have a bad feeling that Im going to be streaky with all by bad luck on tanning tonight.

here is what i bought. I must say the smell of the lotion does smell good. Like a cherry almond like the jergens lotion. I like that it has built in color so you can see where the lotion went on. However Im not sure im going to keep using the lotion. They make a spray which i think might be easier to use..  any suggestions on how to make the lotion application easier?

Look what I got

Got this in the mail today from Charlotte Russe :) Super cute! Now the black wedges were a bit big so I had to exchange them. There not the most comfy due to the back of the shoe were the zipper is on it, but there super cute! The dress I got in a size med and fits awesome especially on the chest. Super soft to! The dress was $20.00 and the shoes were $38 and $10 due to the sale they have going on right now :)

Summer

So of course I wanted to try going back to a blonde hair color. Well it just didnt work out so well. I did the blonde color for about 2 months and now im in a brown shade. Which suits me well. It helps to make my blue eyes pop a bit more to :)
So here I am now. With my brown shade. 

Now I just need to get my tan on LOL

OHH look what I got :) E.LF.

Gotta love A GREAT deal :) got the 10 free mineral eye shadows after I spent $25.

I love the 100 piece eyeshadow collection. So many ways to mix it up. The lip balm I got I LOVE! Its so smooth and soft. I also love the shimmer pallet I got as well. I used it to highlight my eye brows then my cheek bones.

NYX

So ladies I bought some of the NYX lipgloss colors today. Sad to say the one I was really looking forward to just doesn't make the cut. I bought LALA. I saw a fellow you tube beauty blogger show it off. It looked like this really pretty almost hot pink color when she swatched it. So I was super looking forward to it. But its actually a coral color. Which just doesn't look great on me.
So here is the pic from ulta. I bought it from there.

 

So as you can see its a pink shade, but when I got it out of my shipping bag, its for sure not this color. Its a coral shade. Which is almost is hard shade to pull off. So now it will just sit unused lol.

However the ones I got that I like are

 cosmo

This one has a very pretty shimmer and doesn't look as dark as in the picture. More of a neutral color with a bit of shimmer.

Then this pink color

gold pink

Its a super pretty pink color! Love it

  OHH and I LOVVVE the smell of these lip glosses! yummmmy!
