Hi, Hi, Hiiiiii everyone!
Today I wanted to my first monthly favorites for you all. I've never done an actual video of my favorites and I opted to start doing them bi-monthly for you all. I think sharing my favorites will help not only myself, but others that are looking for great products to try out and use.
I personally love watching favorites videos because it gives me a running list of products I'd like to try, what certain colors look like if the person swatches them and an idea of what's great for certain seasons. Hopefully you will find this helpful in any way, shape or form.
Below I have written down all the products that were mentioned in the video, in the order they were shown, in case you need to see the name of any product or color.

Haul | Collective August Beauty Buys
Hi my lovely people!
Today I wanted to share a few things that I purchased over the weekend at my favorite place ... TARGET! I feel like Target is the best place to shop for drugstore beauty products because they contain a range of shades, colors and products to pick from. More than your local Walgreens, Rite Aid or CVS. I've been on a foundation kick lately, wanting to give a few foundations a try since they have been on my wishlist for a while. I did get majority of the foundations I wanted, I just need to get my hands on two more (Rimmel London Wake Me Up and Revlon Nearly Naked in my actual shade). I did however get a few lippies as well because I'm lipstick junkie and lipgloss lover.

I'm not going to drag this post so long, so I'm just going to jump right in with it.
Just so you know, the lighting is terrible, in my opinion, so I may retake the pictures.
- Rimmel London Fix & Perfect Pro Primer #002. I purchased a back up because I absolutely love this primer. I still want the L'oreal and Revlon primers, but this one does me some justice. This is the white one that applies clear, not the peach colored primer.
- L'Oreal RevitaLift Miracle Blur. Was interested in since it's similar to the Benefit Porefessional Primer and since I'm a primer high I just needed to have it.
- Maybelline Dream Nude Airfoam in 310-Honey Beige. Love how this gives me a flawless finish. It is a tad bit orange, but it does make my skin look amazing and I find that I don't need concealer with it.
- L'Oreal True Match Lumi in W6-Sun Beige. Perfect shade, just hope it doesn't oxidize to much on me.

Maybelline Lipstick Collection & Swatches
Hello my lovelies!
I've been wanting to share my ever growing lipstick collection with you all, but I have over 100 lipsticks, so I figured I do this by brand. The first brand was Revlon which was split into two videos because I have a ton of Revlon lipsticks. I've been asked via blogger and youtube to share my collection (complied of mostly drugstore with 4% high end lippies) and I said I would so here it is!
This is the second edition to my lipstick collection and it includes all of my Maybelline lipsticks, including the permnant Color Sensational line, The Jewels Collection (limited edition collection), The Vivids (both permnant and limited edition shades) and the Color Whispers as well.
During the entire video I used my Nivea Lip Butter in Caramel Cream Kiss to keep my lips moisturized between lipsticks.
Names of each lipstick as shown in the video:

Makeup Storage & Collection
Hello my loves,
Today I am showing you all my makeup storage and collection. It has taken me some time to actually do this post because my storage was not the best for a long time. I mean I was storing my makeup in two old train cases from Yazmo and Caboodles, before that in clear plastic tubes. It was bad -- but thanks to my local Bargain Hunters I got my hands on a awesome storage cabinet and plan to get a few more to store my professional makeup, hair products and possibly some shoes too...who knows.
I did record an actual video for my YouTube channel because this would end up being a post overloaded with pictures. In the video, I try to show all of my makeup as "detailed" as possible without making it an extremely long video...I personally don't like recording 20 minute videos, just way to long for my liking. I did buy a few piece to include in the cabinet to help the storage of products seem a bit more better and organized. All the trays were purchased for under $2 a piece and really give me a little more room to expand.

Tutorial | Summer Leaves Are Falling
Hi lovelies!
Today I am sharing with you all a tutorial I created yesterday for my YouTube channel. I wanted to create something surrounded by Inglot's Pearl eyeshadow in #407 because it is such a pretty peachy orange with gold shimmers in it. After much contemplating I realized that the color reminded me of summer and how the leaves turn orange in the fall -- such pretty colors.
In thinking about both summer and fall I incorporated some cranberry and browns in the crease and did a natural coral toned flush of blush with a nude lip. By all means, if you want to amp up the look with a bolder lip or cheek you can do so. I kept mines soft and natural because I wanted the main focus to be on the eyes!
If you'd like to know the exact products I used for this look, then check out below!
