RECENT BEAUTY FAVORITES

TIRTIR Pink Cushion Foundation

TIRTIR has several great foundations, but the pink cushion foundation is a favorite for every day. It’s quick, easy to apply, and is buildable from medium to medium-full coverage while looking natural and skinlike. It also applies and wears well on all areas of my face, including my shine-prone and normal/dry areas. I wear shade 23N. You can see my full review and demo of it HERE.

Westman Atelier Concealer

I almost didn’t try this concealer, but I’m so glad I did! It has a very creamy texture and builds nicely from medium to nearly full coverage while looking natural and never cakey. It’s also formulated with hyaluronic acid and peptides to help firm and lift the under-eye area. Plus, it wears well throughout the day. I wear shade L4, which is a bit more yellow-toned than I prefer. But it seems all of the shades lean yellow. I hope they expand the shade range at some point to include more neutral and peach tones. I’m continuing to reach for it though, because it’s so creamy and flattering!

Natasha Denona I Need a Warm

I love Natasha Denona eye shadow palettes in general. I picked up the I Need a Warm palette during the fall Sephora Sale and have been reaching for it a ton! If you love top-quality warm peachy and bronze eyeshadows, you won’t regret picking this up! 

Ami Colé Lid Joy

I have been incredibly impressed with this liquid matte eyeshadow! The tiniest amount of product gives amazing color payoff. Simply swipe it on, blend it out, and go. It sets very quickly, so work one eye at a time. This is the type of eyeshadow that gives you a sheer bronzed look that’s easy and quick for every day. If you enjoy Merit Solo Shadows like I do, this is kind of the liquid version in my opinion. They also stay put all day long.

Make Up For Ever Artist Color Pencil Extreme

This lip pencil is creamy and glides on easily with a comfortable matte finish. It’s also waterproof and transfer-proof so it stays put. I picked up Wherever Walnut, which is a popular shade described as a warm rose nude. If you like the original formula, I think you’ll love this one because it’s even better!

Milani Cheek Kiss Liquid Blush + Glow

I will never say no to a good drugstore makeup product and I’ve been reaching for this liquid blush a lot lately! I love that it is a blush and highlighter all-in-one product that gives a flattering luminous effect to your cheeks.

It’s available in six shades. You can see each of them on me in THIS VIDEO. Pink Cava is my favorite and most worn so far.

Colleen Rothschild Hydrashine Lipstick Balm

This lipstick balm, reminiscent of Tarte Maracuja Juicy Lip,  is Colleen Rothschild’s newest product launch. I love that she packed these with peptides, hyaluronic acid, shea butter, marula oil, and vitamin E. They have nice sheer pigmentation and feel creamy, pillowy, and comfortable, with no minty, tingling effect. 

I’ve enjoyed shades Santorini Whisper (a nude) and Via dell’Amore (a pinky coral). You can see them on me in THIS VIDEO.

Essence Juicy Bomb Glossy Butter Balm

These butter balms from Essence have such a fun, retro 80’s feel! They are available in five shades. Although the darker, brighter shades are more pigmented, they’re still sheer and not too intimidating for everyday wear. These have fun scents and no flavor.

If you are looking for a fun lip product that is cushiony and hydrating, these butter balms would make great additions to your lip product rotation. 

Merit Retrospect

Merit recently launched its first perfume, Retrospect, and I was pleasantly surprised by it! The presentation of the perfume is beautiful and the scent is stunning.

This perfume is comprised of nearly 30% perfume oil so it’s made to last a long time on your skin. I find it transforms on me throughout the day and is a beautiful scent that’s truly unlike any other fragrance I have!

Top Notes: Bergamot, pear, ambrette, aldehydes 
Middle Notes: Jasmine, rose, rosemary, violet, orris
Bottom Notes: Vanilla, musk, moss

Ledda 20 Bourbon Brulee

This cozy, sophisticated scent is perfect for the fall and winter with its smokey, woody, boozy notes. It also has a slight sweetness to it which I love. If you found By the Fireplace from Replica a bit too smokey, I highly recommend trying this one. It’s everything I wanted By the Fireplace to be – it’s just smoky enough, but the other notes give it the cozy sweetness I was looking for!

Have you tried any of these products? I’d love to hear what you think of them in the comments below, along with any products you want me to try in the future!
