Beauty Tips, My Favorites

Beauty Products that I’m Loving + Giveaway Reminder

December 13, 2016

I thought it would be fun for me to share with you some of the new beauty products I’ve recently added to my arsenal that I’m actually loving.  As you can imagine, I purchase new products often and receive pr samples on a weekly basis.  I also subscribe to several beauty boxes and receive new and interesting products in those as well.

*All products purchased by me/affiliate links

  1. A few months ago I received a life changing foundation in a monthly beauty box that I subscribe to.  It’s the Le Metier de Beaute After Glow Foundation.  This was in my monthly subscription box.  I wear shade 5.  This foundation hydrates and covers imperfections at the same time.  It’s extra wonderful because I can wear a thin layer and sheer it out or I can use a larger amount for full coverage.  It lasts well from morning to night.
  2. I’m always on the hunt for new and better mascaras to give my lashes extra length and volume that they lack on their own.  LORAC hit it out of the ballpark with their Pro Mascara.  This mascara isn’t brand new, but it’s new to me.  I don’t know what took me so long to buy this one.  I’m certain that I’ll be repurchasing this mascara on a regular basis because I can’t get enough of longer and thicker lashes.
  3. I seem to have fallen in love with the Sephora Pro makeup brushes lately for applying my eyeshadow.  I feel like an artist when doing my eye makeup and love the feel of these brushes in my hands.  They have a glamorous feel to them.  My current favorites from the collection are all eye brushes.  They’re the Pro Smudge Brush (#11), Pro Shader Brush (#18) and Pro Bullet Crease Brush (#86).
  4. Did you get your hands on any of the MAC Cosmetics Holiday Collection this year?  I stalked their site until this gorgeous face palette became available.  I believe it’s completely sold out on their site, but you might be able to find it in a store somewhere.  The copper blush is  something I never thought I would wear.  However, it is stunning on.  It adds the perfect amount of warmth to the face.  The highlight color is a light gold.  This is another color that I never thought I could pull off.  However, it’s beautiful on.  The best part about this palette is that I use it on my eyes too.  The shades are amazing and I think MAC needs to make it available as a permanent part of their line.

beauty products I love

    What box did you get the LMdB foundation in? That would be a great box. I think your purchases are excellent and of course things I’d want too. I’ll share your giveaway on my blog this Sunday.

      LMdB has their own VIP beauty box program. I think the sign ups are in August or so for the year. I missed out in the past and finally got in this year. I love the things I’ve received so far. And thanks for sharing the giveaway!! Stacie xo

    I wanted that MAC collection so bad, but I’m still working through so many other things I couldn’t justify the purchase. Great range of products here!

Last week, the Cancer Hope Network brought the com Last week, the Cancer Hope Network brought the community together in Morristown, NJ for an incredible day of golf and pickleball.

Their fundraising tournaments were filled with hope, connection, and support for those facing cancer by providing free, one-on-one support to cancer patients and their loved ones. 💙 

Are you or someone you know is facing a cancer diagnosis? You can learn more about this amazing organization or donate, by visiting cancerhopenetwork.org today!

Cancer Hope Network provides free, confidential, one-on-one emotional support to people impacted by cancer — including patients, survivors, and their loved ones.

Here’s how they do it:

* 💬 Peer Support: They match individuals facing cancer with trained volunteer support mentors who are cancer survivors or caregivers themselves. These mentors offer guidance, hope, and understanding from someone who’s “been there.”
* 🤝 Personalized Matching: Matches are based on factors like diagnosis, treatment type, age, gender, and personal concerns — ensuring relatable and meaningful connections.
* 💙 Support for Everyone: They offer support not just for patients, but also for caregivers, family members, and friends who are navigating a loved one’s cancer journey.
* 💯 Always Free & Confidential: Services are available at no cost, nationwide, regardless of insurance or treatment center affiliation.

Cancer Hope Network’s mission is simple but powerful: “No one should face cancer alone.”

I’m still replaying my wonderful vacation to NJ I’m still replaying my wonderful vacation to NJ and CT from last week, including this cute outfit that I got to wear in the cooler weather. 

I love the wide leg pull-on style jeans so much that I have them in a few colors. And you can never have too many cardigans.💗

My gorgeous new jewelry is from the new Julie Vos store in Dallas. I’m obsessed with the brand and they just released a stunning new silver collection. Have you seen it yet?

I’m linking everything for you. Just comment SHOP and I’ll send it your way. Remember to follow first so IG allows me to message you.‼️

See you again soon (I try to post Monday, Wednesday and Friday). Have a FANTASTIC week!💐
