Most Used Beauty Products of Summer 2014





Summer is nearly over and its so sad because Canadian summers are seriously so short:( My summer this year was spent with friends and family and lots and lots of shisha ;) I'm lebanese I can't help it LOL. As for my makeup this summer, it was kept neutral surprisingly, I'm usually on the bright track when the sun is out. So my most used beauty products this summer were...

MAC Malt
Its a neutral mauve-y eyeshadow and I would just dust it all over my lid using a MAC 217 brush

L'oreal Liquid Liner
Its the original liner, its a brush tip lasts long and doesn't smudge out as much as the newer versions.

Benefit Dallas Blush
Obsessed over this blush, I use it more of a bronzer and lightly contour. But I hit pan on it so quick, literally...i can't even... #whitegirltalk



L'Oreal Butterfly Effect Mascara
This is a new product of L'Oreal and I liked it, it does give the "butterfly" effect but you have to focus on the application of it and apply it properly or else you won't get that well of a butterfly effect. Overall, satisfied with the product.

These were my most used beauty products this summer, what were yours?

Hello Fall

                             
Hello September,
I actually consider this month more of a new year because it is a new school year, its a fresh start to readjust your habits and goals. I have been MIA from blogging because I was not focused on what I want and what I want to accomplish. I had no clear idea of what I want to achieve with this blog. So I spent the summer trying to figure myself out and what I love to do and honestly I miss this, I love writing about beauty topics - its my obsession. So I'm back with a plan and brand new outlook on how I want to carry my blogging experience and without further adieu I think for my first post back I will talk about the famous Kylie Jenner lips.

Kylie has grown so much over the years and if you're not a Kardashian indulger like myself then you probably don't care for this post. But the Kardashians are my guilty pleasure, I love watching their show because of the fashion, makeup and hair. The Jenners and Kardashians are walking trend setters especially miss Kylie Jenner. She is most famous for her transformation from she got no mouth to did she get a lip job? People really don't understand how makeup can change everything if applied properly. 

To achieve fuller lips its all about the liner, and Kylie over draws her lips to create the illusion of fuller lips; as if she got a lip injection. Her makeup artist Joyce has spoken out about the products Kylie uses to get the famous mauve/nude lips and they are, MAC Whirl Lipliner and MAC Velvet Teddy Lipstick.
                 

You line your whole lip with Whirl if you have thin lips like Kylie just over draw your lips by going slightly on top of your lip. What I like to do for my lip is going a little bit over my cubic bone, just to make them look a little more pouted, and what I like doing is making the corners darker. After you finished lining your lips, apply Velvet Teddy just in the centre of your lips and mix it just in the middle and now you created this ombre/ illusion of fuller lips. This is the famous Kylie lips that she rocks everyday and whats even crazier is that every MAC has been sold out of Whirl for weeks all thanks to miss Kylie LOL :) 
                                                    

Hope you guys enjoyed this post,
Yara
