Look of the Day – Autumn Aesthetic 

With the cooler weather comes sweaters, legwarmers, and booties… this is one combination I’ve been waiting all summer to sport.

Farsali Rose Gold Elixir

Magic in a bottle…. no, seriously! Once you’ve tried this product, and have incorporated it into your beauty routine, you will find it hard to live without.

First let’s start with the smell. The website describes it as an uplifting citrus aroma – which it is. However it is not overpowering or bold, just a nice sweet smell, that I believe has a slight honeysuckle aroma as well.

Next, the texture… it is super light and silky. In short, it feels great on your skin. It is super versatile as well. I have used it as a moisturizer for my face and lips, and to blend my foundation with my kabuki brush. Both applications are spectacular. Their website (Farsali.com) lists other great uses as well.

This product is for anyone and everyone as it is completely natural. The ingredients include: rosehip seed oil, pumpkin seed oil, 24k gold, vitamin E, lemongrass oil, and orange peel oil.

It comes in two sizes 15ml ($35.00) and 30ml ($54.00). I’d recommend just getting the larger size right off the bat, because you are going to love it.

Be forewarned – this product does sell out from time to time, so plan accordingly 🙂

Statement Shoes

So if you are like me, wearing black is pretty much an everyday occurrence. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE color, but black is classic and it goes with everything which makes getting ready in the morning so much easier.One way I counterbalance my day to day outfits, so that I don’t constantly look like I am heading to a funeral or some underground goth party, is to add a pop of color or pattern with the shoes I choose to wear.

Usually I search for more bold and bright shoes so that they really stand out from the otherwise monochromatic outfit, but if truth be told I can be seen in head to toe black quite often as well.

So next time you are out and about shoe shopping, try opting for the colorful or more daring choice 🙂

It’s getting so close to fall! I know I’m a couple weeks early before the first official day of autumn, but here it goes. The weather is almost cool enough, so here is some fall weather outfit inspiration.

Wish

By now, most people have heard of Wish. For those of you who have not, Wish is an online shopping app, that has TONS of beauty related products, and several other things too. But for the purpose of this post, I wanted to focus on the beauty product element of Wish.

First let me start by saying, I was extremely skeptical when I originally downloaded the app. They have beauty products listed on there, from brushes to lashes, and everything in between. The prices are CRAZY low, so… of course I figured there had to be some kind of catch, right?!

Inevitably, I threw caution to the wind and placed an order for the items you see pictured above.

Let’s start with the lashes. Super long, great quality, and best of all, I got five pairs for $1. For those of you that try a lot of different lashes, like I do; these were about the same quality of Red Cherry or Eyelure. They fit the length of my eyelid and were flexible and easy to apply.

The beauty puffs… These were also $1 for a pack of four. If you are expecting to get a Beauty Blender for that bargain price of a quarter, you are mistaken here. These are decent for applying powder in a baking situation, but not much else.

The pore strip masks… I love these. It is a peel off mask that smells fantastic. It cleans out your pores great and leaves your face feeling clean and unclogged afterwards. These come in a pack of ten for, you guessed it…A DOLLAR!

The brush set… I have yet to splurge for the real deal on these luxury brushes, but the set from Wish is okay. Not great, and not horrible…Just okay. These were the most pricey product I purchased off the Wish app, at a whopping $10 for ten brushes varying in size.

Overall Wish is a good place to start for items you want to try.. Especially if you are on a tight budget, but must satisfy your need for beauty products. Many items start for $1… Yes A DOLLAR!

What have been your favorite products you’ve purchased off the Wish app. (or maybe products we should avoid in the future)?

Thanks for reading!! 🙂

NYX Vivid Brights Liners

NYX has done it again! The NYX Vivid Brights liners are so amazing. These relatively new liners are so fun and creative. They come in nine different shades, pretty much every color of the rainbow (literally); and for only $7 a piece, it’s easy to collect them all. Which you will indeed want to do.

The color payoff is bright and vivid (as the name suggests). It is an easy to apply liquid liner with a brush applicator. I would easily give these liners a 10/10 because of their price point, their versatility (as they can be used in so many ways), and because of the range of color choices.
