High/Low Long Lasting Lip Color

From Left to Right: Mac's Pro Long-Wear Lip Color $23 & Covergirl Outlast Double LipShine $9.29

I have to say I am in love with Covergirl's Outlast Double Lipshine! The results are very similar to Mac's Pro Long-wear Lip Color and it's less than half the price ;) You apply the color, wait for it to fully dry which takes about a minute or so and then add the clear gloss over it. It works better than a typical lip stain which can end up drying out your lips and cracking. You just have to make sure you wait for the color to dry because it'll start to peel and look like a big ol' mess.

Bright Eyed

 Top Left to Right: Laura Mercier Repair Eye Serum, Laura Mercier Undercover Pot Concealer, Mac 217 Brush

These three products will help you achieve that bright and awake eye even if you only got a few hours of sleep. I absolutely love this eye serum! It contains arnica, which plastic surgeons use on their patients to reduce swelling. It also has caffeine in it too to get rid of under eye puffiness. It has an illuminating, irredescant glow to it so you can even dab some on your cheekbones for an extra glow. The undercover pot is amazing, you only need a little bit with this product to go a long way. The one side is the secret camouflage formula which covers up blemishes and scars & the other side is the secret concealer for under your eyes. The Mac 217 brush is intended for blending eyeshadow, but it also works really nicely to blend and set your powder under the eye too.

Get Glowing

Gorgeous glowing skin is the best accessory any woman can have. Laura Mercier's Radiance primer is a great base to start off your makeup with and will illuminate your whole face. Laura also makes an illuminating tinted moisturizer which I love, but I wouldn't use it with the Radiance primer because it may be a little too much glow. MAC's Mineralize Skinfinish in Soft & Gentle is also a really pretty highlight. Lastly Smashbox's Artificial Light; you can apply it with your fingers, brush or sponge on your cheekbones, inner corners of your eyes, bridge of your nose or even mix it with your foundation! P.S. I also hear great things about RMS Living Luminizer, haven't tried it but I hope to soon!
