GRWM-Products Tutorial

It's been awhile since I did a "get ready with me" style post and I've been trying out new products that I feel you need to know about.  Next week, I will be posting links on how to buy some of these products at Nordstrom so stay tuned for that update!

For skin care prep, I used Trader Joe's coconut oil and some baking soda to slough off and exfoliate.  Next I used Natura Bisse Oxygen Mousse cleanser to wash the oil off and then Natura Bisse's The Cure All-In-One Cleanser with my Foreo.

After washing, I applied the Knesko Skin (made popular by the facial given on the Kardashian's to Kris and Caitlyn) Nano Gold Repair Collagen Face Mask and let sit for about 30 minutes.  After that, I applied my Natura Bisse Diamond Eye Cream with the La Mer eye cream tool, Natura Bisse Tensolift to the muscles I need to paralyze, Kypris Beauty Elixir, and a little Natura Bisse Essential Shock Cream.  (Reminder, links to purchase coming NEXT WEEK!)

For my primer, I tried the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter (shade 4) and let me tell you-I am obsessed with it.  After, I used Nars All Day Luminous foundation in Santa Fe.  Concealer, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Custard but first I used the Smashbox Under Eye Primer and then I dabbed Bobbi Brown Corrector in shade Porcelain on the inner corners of my under eye for brightening.  For contour I used Diorskin Nude Air Glow Powder.  For bronzer around the perimeter of my face and cheeks, I used FakeBake Face and Body Compact (Side note, for my actual tan, I use FakeBake Flawless Darker).  I used my Beauty Blender to apply Bobbi Brown Sheer Finish Loose Powder to set the look.  For blush I used Chantecaille Cheek Shade Laughter.  For highlight, I used my Chantecaille Eye Shade in Perle (I love this eyeshadow for highlighter!)

For eyes, first I used Smashbox 24 Hour Eyeshadow Primer, and then I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette's shade Tempura all over the lid.  I really like my ABH Aurora Glow Kit, but I find the shades are a little too glittery for my taste to use for highlighter, but I actually love them as eye shadows (I know, I know-I used eyeshadow for highlighter and highlighter for eyeshadow-in my opinion, highlighters are just giant eyeshadows anyways).  I applied Spectra on the base of my lids.  It wasn't bright enough, so I tapped into my KKW Beauty KKWxMario palette and I think I used shade Vegas-it was the burgundyish maroonish shade (I REALLY wish the names of the shades were under the pan....!!!) on the creases of my eyes.  I then put some more Spectra and then used Smashbox Always Sharp Waterproof Kohl Liner in Black only on the top lash line.  I blended the liner with Osiris from the Anastasia Beverly Hills Prism palette and then coated up with my tried and true mascara, Diorshow-the original.  Then I filled in my brows with Benefit Precisely, My Brow Pencil in Shade 3.  Then I applied my two pairs of Ardell 120's and set my face with Caudalie Beauty Elixir.

Lips:  Buxom Full On Lip Polish in shade Jill

All day, my face looked so dewy and glowy and I am not sure if it was the nano gold mask or the flawless filter, or a combo of all, but thats why I took so many selfies :). The cat's name is Chach and he wouldn't allow me to take pictures without meowing so I used him to pose with.
