My Current Favorites!

   Hi lovies! I'm back with another post and this one is very important for me because this corresponds with my first Youtube video of my new channel! As you may know, I had a Youtube channel before titled "MakeupByRuru." I don't know what I was thinking when I picked that name because I felt like all I could post were beauty videos. In my new channel, however, I'm going to be posting up vlogs, beauty, fashion and cooking videos! I am super excited about this new channel and I'm also getting distracted so let's get back to this post, ma homies!

 

    Today, I will be talking about my current favorites in beauty and fashion. Let's start off with beauty! My first beauty favorite is the L'oreal Magic Lumi Foundation. It is a great everyday foundation. It has an SPF of 20 and it makes skin look dewy. I have oily/combo skin and it's great because it doesnt make me more oily and definitely covers the few dry patches I have around my mouth. My shade is W6 Sun Beige. My next favorite is the Magic Lumi Primer. I love this product because you can use it as a primer and a highlighter. I use this primarily as a highlither becasue it has no shimmer but gives you a dewy glow and looks like you are glowing from within. The last face product I'm loving is the Milani Baked Blush in "Coralina." The name describes the color of the blush perfectly. Absolutely love this blush for the spring. It has gold shimmer swirled into it so you really dont need to use a highlighter. Here's a swatch.

  
  The next couple of products I'm loving are the Revlon Photoready 3D Volume mascara and the Maybelline Falsies Flared Mascara. I combine them together to get the false lash effect. They don't flake and definitley do not make my eyelashes feel stiff. This is my Holy Grail combination. Last but not least, for eyes, I am loving the L'oreal Smoldering Eyes Liner. It is super pigmented and does not smudge on the water line. It's also great for smoking out any eye look.

 

     Now on to my favorite part; the lippies!!!! Kat Von D Liquid Lisptick in "Outlaw" and NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in "Monte Carlo" have to be my most worn lip products this past winter. "Outlaw" is a true red. What you see in the container is what you get. "Monte Carlo," however, shows up a lot more pink on my lips. My favorite neutral lipstick is MAC "Please Me." It's a great mauve-y pink color and its close to my natural lip color so it works great as an everyday lipstick. I have great pictures of swatches on my hand but not on my lips. Here are some of the pictures I took.

 Here is a picture of the products on my lips. If you look closely, "Outlaw" has a blue-ish undertone, great for making your teeth look whiter, while "Monte Carlo" has a pink undertone.

     Let's move on to nails! I am obsessed with nail polish and the next two are perfect for spring! Such pretty pastel colors! The first one is Essie's "Bond With Whomever" and its a lilac color. This looks great on tan skin. The next one is from Nicole by Opi's Selena Gomez Collection called "Selena" This is like a peachy coraly color. Not the most flattering color for my skintone but I can't figure out why I love it so much. Both have a great formula. You only need two coats to make it opaque.
