April Favorites

Hello my beauties !!!

Let me say that this year in general has been going so fast it's crazy but I'm so glad it's been a great year so far and will continue to be so ! :)

Since all the new spring/summer collections have been releasing on my time off I have been experimenting but on days that I have class or work I've been doing basic makeup that makes my skin look fresh and radiant.

My April's FAVs are

Physicians Formula Bronze Booster in Light to Medium - I use this all over my face for a bronze glow and then I go back with a heavier hand and contour my cheeks and temples. I also use this color in my crease and lower lash line for definition.
Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 hr blush in Dollface - I brush this on to my cheeks and a light sweep on the tip of my nose and forehead for a natural looking rose glow.
TheBalm Mary-Lou Manizer highlighter - this is seriously the best highlighter I have ever used !! I used this on everything !! On my cheek bones, bridge of my nose, my Cupid's bow, my brow bone and my inner eye for a bright eyed look.
NYX skin tone base - I used this on my lids to give me a nude base and remove redness and the look of small veins on my lids.
NYX eyeshadow in platinum pink - I use this shadow on my under eyes, the light pink tones really help brighten the undereye area nicely.
L'oreal the super slime liquid liner 12hr infallible - I got this on impulse for spring break and I love it glides on nicely ! (Great for beginners)
Bare Mineral flawless definition mascara- this mascara really makes my eyes lashes look amazing ! It defines and makes my lashes look long, helping with the bright eyed look I go for !
Garnier Antidark circle roller- already on my second tube, this stuff is amazing !!! And feels so good on tired morning eyes.
Stila kajal in topaz- it's not as stark as white and really makes your eyes look big and bright.
NYX eyebrow cake powder in dark brown/brown- I've had this powder for some time but never used it, now I'm in love, the shadows leave a soft but defined natural look.
Maybelline Baby Lips- I swear I'm obsessed with baby lips !!! But I've been really in to Melon Mania because it has this amazing watermelon bright pigment that looks natural yet juicy on your lips ! (Doesn't hurt that it smells amazing !!!)
Mac Peach Blossom - since this color was released I've been in love too bad I didn't get a backup ! But this color is great to give you a natural glossed pink lip without looking over done.
Sedona Lace brushes !!! AHHH I cant believe I've been missing out ! These brushes are amaze ! The ones I've been really reaching for has been the 813 and I use this one for an all over bronze glow and to blend out my bronzer blush and highlight, the FB 05 omg. This brush is heaven ! I used this for bronzer contour, blush and highlight ! It's an all over great brush and very versitale, the EB 13 is great for under the eyes, brow bone and inner corner highlight.

What were you favorite for this month ??
