Hi everyone - I hope you enjoy this video showing you how to clean your makeup brushes and your Beauty Blender sponge using the Beauty Blender solid cleanser.
As I mentioned in the video, I have found a great dupe for this by Sephora Collection - the "Dry Clean: Solid Brush Cleaner". The two solid cleansers are pretty much exactly the same in my opinion, except the Sephora Collection one is $2 cheaper at $14 vs. $16 for the Beauty Blender Solid.
I find that using a solid cleanser is the easiest way to clean my makeup brushes. Once they are clean, I lay them out to dry and they are all set and ready to use by the next morning. There is no scent to either of these products, my skin has never been irritated them, and I have never found any residue on my brushes. I usually do this routine every 1-2 weeks depending on how dirty my brushes are.
I hope you guys enjoy my first makeup tutorial on YouTube! I always get so many questions on my makeup, so I wanted to show you all my typical everyday neutral makeup look, perfect for work, date night, going out to dinner, etc.
To create this smokey brown eye look I used the "warm quad" from the Kat Von D Shade and Light Eye palette. I have to say, I am really loving this palette, the colors blend together so nicely and you can use this palette to create many different types of looks for day or night.

I have come across such a makeup treasure, perfect for the coming summer months. Introducing the "Pot Rouge" by Bobbi Brown!
The product is one of Bobbi Brown's best-selling. Pot Rouge is a multi-tasking cream color that you can blend on the apples of your cheeks for a beautiful subtle blush look or blot it on your lips for a soft, stained finish. You can build the opacity simply by blending more or less into your skin until your desired level of color is achieved.
Swatch of the "Katie" Pot Rouge
The best part is that this formula lasts all day long! And there are tons of colors to choose from- I have "Kate" named after Katie Holmes, who is the face of Bobbi Brown. The packaging is a simple and classic mirrored flip-top compact- perfect for on-the-go application.
Do you have Pot Rouge in your makeup collection? What other Bobbi Brown products do you love? Let me know in a comment!
You can purchase Pot Rouge at Bobbi Brown or at fine makeup retailers, such as Nordstrom.
Retail price: $26
If you are obsessed with having the newest beauty products and latest trends then I know you have heard about the Anastasia Contour Kit. This kit has been all the buzz on the blogs and on YouTube lately, and every beauty lover has been raving about this amazing new kit! Well finally, the wait is over for me, and I was able to snag one the contour kits for myself!!
So let's get chatting about what this holy grail of contour even does!
You will be able to perfectly sculpt and define your features with the 6 powders featured in this kit. These powders were designed to contour and highlight your eyes, cheekbones, nose, and jawline.
There are six shades in the kit, in removable pans so you can easily change them to a different palette or replace them when they are empty. There are 3 highlighting shades: Vanilla, Sand, and Banana. And 3 contouring bronzer shades: Java, Havana, and Fawn.
I am loving the look of a defined contour lately and this kit is the best of the best when it comes to flawlessly sculpting your face.
Overall I really couldn't recommend this kit any more- it is definitely worth all the hype around it!
The only bad thing is that unfortunately you have to be some sort of a magician it seems to get your hands on one! I snagged mine at Sephora after signing up for their "alert me" emails but there was only a very limited quantity available.
Looks like more kits will be available in mid-May on the Sephora and Anastasia Websites. Retail price: $40.
I am always on the search for a new lipgloss- I must have hundreds- but when I came across this fabulous lip gloss by Urban Decay, I had to share with you all: Introducing the Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lipgloss!
This decadent lip gloss has a fabulously delicious vanilla-mint flavor that I adore. And unlike lots of other glosses, Lip Junkie allows you to get all that shine without the sticky hangover. If you want a super-shiny gloss, but can't stand the sticky texture, then Lip Junkie is definitely for you. The soft and smooth texture stays put much longer than other glosses.
The key ingredient, Maxi-Lip™, plumps the appearance of lips an average of 40% when used daily for a month. (Lip Junkie uses non-irritant plumpers, unlike other glosses that use stinging ingredients to inflame your lips.) The Maxi-Lip actually helps your lips become better defined, super-hydrated, and full.
My go-to shade for this gloss is Midnight Cowboy- a fabulous sheer sparkly nude that is beyond amazing over some of my favorite lipsticks.
What do you think? Do you love a glossy pout? What is your favorite lip gloss? Let me know in a comment on this post!
You can purchase the Urban Decay Lip Junkie Lipgloss at Sephora.
Retail Price: $19
The MVP of my makeup collection had to be the Urban Decay Naked palette - packed with super wearable shades, this palette is always my go-to for any occasion. Being a girl who adores makeup, I have accumulated and tested countless shadows over the years, and although NARS and TooFaced palettes come in and out of my life, I always go back to my Naked palette- trusted and true!
Naturally, after quite some time of wearing the Naked palette shades, I was ready for a change- I had heard of the Naked 2 palette but didn't think I needed it, thought it was too similar blah blah... Well I finally broke down and caved in- introducing the Naked 2 palette!!! My dreams have come true with the beyond amazing little sister to the original Naked palette! Boy am I LOVING this new palette- I am already so so obsessed!
Here is the low down on the uber fashionable and popular Naked 2 palette: This palette features a dozen pigment-rich taupe and gray-beige neutrals, plus five exclusive, new shades. This set contains 12 Eyeshadows in the following shades:
Foxy (cream bisque with matte finish), Half Baked (golden-bronze with shimmering finish), Booty Call (shimmering cork), Chopper (copper shimmer with silver microglitter)
Tease (creamy pale brown with matte finish), Snake Bite (dark bronze shimmer with metallic base), Suspect (pale golden beige with shimmering finish), Pistol (light gray-brown with shimmering finish)
Verve (oyster with shimmering finish), YDK (cool bronze shimmer with metallic base), Busted (deep brown with shimmering finish), Blackout (blackest black with matte finish)
The palette also includes a travel-size Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Naked and a double-ended, cruelty-free Good Karma Shadow/Crease Brush.
Urban Decay's packaging takes on a modern feel in Naked 2 with an art-school-inspired tin case and a hinged lid. Compare Naked2 with first Naked palette—packaged in warm, rich brown velvet with gold foil lettering—and you won't be able to resist owning both.
Sorry Naked, you will always remain in my heart, but I have officially started my love affair with Naked 2!
Available for purchase at Sephora
Retail price: $50
As promised here is another amazing Bobbi Brown product that is sure to become a summer staple. Meet Bobbi's foundation stick! This innovative Foundation Stick is designed for portability and adjustable coverage- it is easy to apply and blend all over the face or just where you need it.
How do I use it? Keep skin nude or use a tinted moisturizer. Instead of a full face of foundation, spot-apply the stick foundation just where skin is red or uneven.
Your skin will be feeling so much better without a liquid foundation over the summer months, and Bobbi Brown's foundation stick will give you the coverage, lasting power, and lightness that you crave in this hot weather.
With a bunch of different colors to choose from you will definitely be able to find your perfect match- I purchased "sand" and it looks great!
You can purchase this product on the Bobbi Brown website, Sephora, or at department stores (Nordstrom, etc.) Retail Price: $42
Oh yes- finally it is sweet sweet summertime here in Boston- and the heat is sweltering! Therefore giving me the amazing excuse of buying new summer makeup :) my new favorite is Bobbi Brown lately so you will be seeing a few posts in the coming weeks on some of the new products I have been using.
Introducing the cult favorite, Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick! I have actually had my eye on this for quite some time (ashamed to say like 2 years lol) but I just never purchased it for some reason... Boy did I waste time- If only I knew how amazing this product was!
The shimmer brick gives you the perfect summer shimmery glow, without looking shiny. I couldn't be happier with the look it gives me- and it is super simple and quick to apply. I purchased my shimmer brick in "Rose". Bobbi Brown has this shimmer brick in a few different colors, so check out her website for all of the details and shades.
Apply after your bronzer and blush, sweep your brush through all five shades of Shimmer Brick Compact and dust lightly on cheekbones. Focus on applying shimmer on the top of cheekbones - where light naturally hits the face - for the most flattering look. I have used this as my only color (replacing blush), so it is very versatile depending on the look you want to create.
The Face Blender Brush is a great multi-purpose brush, ideal for dusting Shimmer Brick Compact on cheekbones for a natural-looking, shimmery glow. This Brush can also be used with Sheer Finish Powder, Blush, or Bronzing Powder.
Face Blender Brush Retail Price: $48
Shimmer Brick Retail Price: $42
Both of these products are available on Bobbi Brown's website.
