"Makeup is Art. 
Beauty is Spirit."

~ Beauty Brands ~
I started wearing makeup during my last two years of high school. In that time, I learned a few important lessons. One, color can be fun, two, every feature on your face cannot have a moment, and three, makeup should only accentuate your natural beauty, not make you look like someone else.  Now as an adult, I am on a journey to find makeup products that make me feel the most like myself and achieve a seemingly effortless look.  Over the summer, I had a lot of fun shopping around for products that were healthy for my body and gentle on my skin. Through a lot of trial and error, I have found what I like to call my "holy grail" system that helps me achieve my beauty goals.  

For My Skin: 
I have always had really sensitive skin so I have to be very particular about the type of products I put on my face. For me, natural products work best.  Below is a list of the soaps cleansers scrubs and moisturizers that I use to keep my skin supple, clear, soft and beautiful.
  1. Alaffia Authentic African Black Soap [Unscented]
  2. Burt's Bees Orange Essence Face Cleanser
  3. Burt's Bees Peach and Willow Bark Deep Pore Scrub
  4. Burt's Bees Daily Moisturizing Cream [Sensitive] 

Makeup:
I am so pleased with the makeup products I am currently using. They are a great base for any occasion and the best part is that they are inexpensive! Beauty on a budget is the key. 
  1. L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer- Medium Beige  
  2. Dual Ended Contour & Highlight Stick- Medium 
  3. BLK/OPL TRUE COLOR Pore Perfecting Liquid Foundation- Heavenly Honey and Truly Topaz
  4. Black Radiance Eye Appeal Lasting Mascara [Argan Oil-Infused]- Black
  5. Black Radiance Soft Focus Finishing Powder- Golden Almond 
  6. Origins Cosmetics Pinch Your Cheeks Powder Blush- Sugar Cookie
  7. Essence Pure Nude Sunlighter- Be My Sunlight
  8. MAC Lip Pencil- Whirl
  9. Milani Color Statement Lipstick- Teddy Bare, Red Label, Cabaret Blend
