A few moths ago, I came to my senses and went out and purchased a new mascara. I was sadly using a clear mascara (I know) on my lashes. I purchased one of the newer mascaras from Maybelline, The Colossal Volume Express. I got it from CVS, for $6.99 and you can find it HERE.

For my foundation, I use the Maybeline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation. I like how "fresh" look I get after I use this foundation. It doesn't look unnatural or cakey. It's also really easy to blend out onto my face.

The powder that I ALWAYS reach for would be the E.l.f Clarifying Pressed Powder. I sometimes use this alone, because it gives off a matte, finish to my face. It seems to boost the 'life' that my face gives off. (Strange but True!) It sets my foundation nicely as well. I keep one of these in my locker at school because there are days when I'm stressed, and my face gets oily. 

I reach for the E.l.f All Over Cover Stick because it covers up the deep circles under my eyes. I keep the E.l.f Complete Coverage Concealer nearby as well because I can mix up the colors and use it for any problem areas I have that particular day. 

For cheeks/highlighting, I use a blush. Most likely the NYX Powder Blush in Mocha. I like the flush of color that it gives my face. I highlight with the Wet & Wild Illuminating Face Powder. I can't use this all over my face simply because it is too shimmery. I use it as a highlighter/bronzer, because it gives me an amazing glow! 

I don't really have a particular product for eye makeup that I use everyday. I just reach for anything. But I always use an eyeliner, whether it be liquid like the E.l.f Liquid Eyeliner or a Pencil one like the Wet & Wild Color Icon Pencil. Mascara is also a must, I use the Maybeline Great Lash Mascara in Clear/Transparent. I deem that Clear mascara is way easier to use, and it gives the same results!

For lips I always reach for...ready...VASELINE! It's just something that I've been using since I was a baby, and I will continue to use forever. It such a simple way to stay soft, and moisturized. For a lip color I use my E.l.f Lipstick in Seductive. It gives my lips a simple wash of color. Nothing to crazy!

Those are the products that I reach for everyday! I do change these products up, depending on what I'm feeling. When  get new products, depending if I like them, I use them more often and push the older products to the side! I know, its bad, but don't act like you don't get excited over a new goodie!!

Hi everyone! Today I'm reviewing a foundation that seems to be getting a lot of great reviews lately. The Maybelline Dream Liquid Foundation is a liquid foundation, that has a air whipped consistency. It also has a medium consistency. This foundation cost around $10, and can be found at most drugstores and Ulta outlets. I reviewed this foundation for my Youtube channel, you can see it below.
Packaging: This foundation is housed in a glass bottle, and comes with a pump. It has 1 fl. oz of product which is standard for regular liquid foundations. The pump on this bottle is really nice. You can lock it, when you want to travel with it so that the pump doesn't spontaneously spurt out foundation. You can also control how much foundation comes out of it.

Color/Pigmentation: When I was buying this foundation, I looked into many drugstores (target, walgreens, rite-aid, etc.) and they never had the darkest shade. On Ulta.com the foundation comes in 12 shades. Ranging from light porcelain shades, to deeper shades. I was really scared that the foundation would be too light for my skin. But I purchased the shade "Cocoa" and it was perfect. I compare foundations to the Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in "Tortuga" because that was a dead on match for my skin. This foundation matches exactly and I'm really happy with the match.



Quality: As far as quality goes with this foundation, I have no problems with it. It seems to stay on as long as I need it to. I need it for about 7-8 hours a day and it stays on great. The only issue I have is, if I have on a white blouse and if I were to lay my head down on my sleeve, my face would "come off" on my blouse. I'm not sure if that's the foundation or the way I set my makeup.

Overall i really love this foundation. It has become my favorite drugstore foundation. I love the consistency of it and I think it makes your face just look flawless. I will definitely recommend it to someone looking for a great drugstore liquid foundation.
