March favorites

Hey beauties, happy friday. This month has gone by so quick and online class has kept me busy. I promise I will have my ipsy and lipmonthly up as soon as possible. So I will begin with all these awesome goodies I have discovered and loved this month.
 
Milan's Conceal and Perfect 2 in 1 Concealer and Foundation
After saying goodbye to Mac foundation I have been on the lookout for some full coverage foundations that will  not break me out and hide my acne scars. I had heard such great reviews I decided to go out and buy it. I am so glad I did. This bottle is average size and comes with a pump. Yay! Always a big plus when you aren't struggling to get it on your brush. I picked mines up at cvs for $10. The shade range is very limited. I believe there are 14 colors. The color I chose was 02 neutral. I believe this color will be great for summer when I am outdoors more often but for now it was a bit darker so I wear it mixed with my Covergirl.
 

I was completely impressed with this foundation. I have acne marks so this really acted as a concealer. It does not feel thick but it did have a full coverage. It settled to a semi matte (I have dry skin), and lasted almost all day. It also had a scent. A very lovely scent and if you are familiar with Milani and their lipsticks you know they are lightly scented. For those who do not like fragrances do not be worried the smell goes away but as you are applying you will get a whiff of it. This along with loreal lumi are my holy grails.
 
Ulta's Matte Lip Cream
My favorite color of the bunch has to be spirited. This color is a cooler toned down pink. It had been a while since I used these but since Ulta was having sales I thought I would bring them out and share swatches. These lipsticks dry to a matte that is comfortable on the lips but let me warn you that they take forever to dry. Up to 30 min. Yea big no no, but if you catch them on sale when they are half off (around $4) they are totally worth the 30 min drying wait. They do last a good while on the lips but they will fade away when eating and do transfer.

JeBeaucosmetics, cat eye eyeliner and Dark bronzer:
 I mentioned these products in my previous post if you would like to see my full thoughts. I wont bore you again with the same stuff so ill just quickly mention that they eyeliner dries almost instantly to a dark black matte making it easier for me as a beginner to apply it. As for the bronzer I love that a little goes a long way and blends without hassle. It is amazing.
Nyx Cosmetics Brow cake Powder
The color I picked up was dark brown. This brow palette is tiny and great for travelling. It includes a small spoolie and angled brush. It has a gel and two brow powders. If you apply the gel first it helps tame your brows and helps the powder as well last longer. I loved, loved this palette. I grabbed it at target but I do not remember the price. It may have been under $8.

At Home Teeth Whitening: Does it work?

Smile Brilliant  Happy Thursday beauties. It has definitely been quite a while since I posted on the blog but Since the holidays are just around the corner I wanted to share The perfect kit to get your teeth looking great for the family photos. (Read to the end for a special surprise.) Have you ever tried an at home kit before? This definitely was not my first time, but prior to tryin one out I made sure to do my research. "At home kits may not be for everyone. Some do not cater to sensitivity and It is not suggested for those who have had a lot of work done on their teeth."   Smile Brilliant reached out to me not to long ago and after learning from some friends that they enjoyed the experience and loved the out come I decided to give it a go.  Of course you do want to do some research of your own on any product. This is my experience and   These are my opinions:   This at home Kit was definitely unique. The
