Styling // Sports Hats // Collab w/ Fanatics


Hey guys!
So this post is very exciting, I got the oppourtunity to eork with Fanatics which is an online shop that has all the sports fan merch you could ever dream of, and they asked me to style a MLB hat to celebrate the upcoming baseball playoff season. 

So I came up with 3 outfits using the New York Yankees' 47 Brand Franchise adjustable in the blue and white. I chose this one because I love the look it gives any outfit with the colour scheme, and also my dad has worn the fitted version of these since I was little.

NYC Haul // Makeup & Beauty


Hey guys!

So as promised, here is part one of what I bought in NYC. I did the makeup one first because I wanted to show you guys all the products before I used them. But since taking the photos I have tested all of them to give you guys my opinions on each item.

Let's get into it.


BRUSHES

In nyc there is a flagship ELF beauty store, and when I heard about it i HAD to go. I always order elf online and have to pay for shipping and crap, so going to the store I avoided that (with the cost of a plane ticket to nyc :/).
Anyway, I had a few of their brushes and absolutely loved them, they exceed any other drugstore brush. And the price is... wait for it...
$3 DOLLARS! 
UM??!?! YES PLEASE!
So I bought all the one I saw there and wanted and these are them.

BRUSHES FROM LEFT TO RIGHT:

Stipple Brush
Powder Brush (Flat Top Kabuki)
Blending Brush
Complexion Brush (New Fav)
Crease Brush
Small Tapered Brush

Love them all, go buy them all.

HIGHLIGHTERS


Highlighter is my ISH, so I'm always buying them to find my all time fav. I need one that looks like the heavens have a spotlight on me at all times. So here are the ones I picked up. 

ELF HIGHLIGHTER IN BLUSH GEMS


This highlighter was also picked up on my elf store rampage, and it was a good decision on my part, go me! This highlighter is the highlighter you use if you want that wet strong highlight on the top of your cheek. The best thing about it, is that it's only 3 bucks as well. Literally go elf cosmetics you are killing and owning the drugstore makeup game.

BECCA SHIMMERING SKIN PERFECTOR IN ROSE GOLD 




This does not have as wallet friendly a price as the elf highlighter previously shown BUTTTTTT you will get over it when you swatch this bae of a highlighter on your body! 
This gives you the most beautiful glowing from within look on your skin. It makes your skin look perfect and radiant. It comes in 4 shades this one being the newest shade, so you can find one perfect for your skin tone. From the palest of the pale to a deep skin tone you will fall in love with a shade. 
Keep in mind, these are always sold out at all Sephora's when I went to the one in times square there was one of these left and the rest were sold out, so good luck on finding one ;).


FACE POWDERS
I have a new found love for translucent powders they are just perfect for making your skin look smooth, but not cakey. 


This is a cult fav i the makeup world, it has been around since 1936! It comes in a variety of colours and finishes and such, but I just picked it up in translucent and it's perf.
Keep in mind, I love the smell its baby powder smelling, but if you can't put fragrance on your face buy the scentless one instead.


Another elf purchase. I picked this up solely because of shaaanxo on youtuber because she raved about it. I love it butttt, it's the hardest product to deal with. Getting a small amount of the jar is soo hard it makes me not want to use it. 

MAC FACE PRODUCTS


These are cult favs in my makeup collection. 

FROM LEFT TO RIGHT:

The face & body foundation is sooooo beautiful. It's basically and tinted moisturizer maybe even a little bit lighter than that (hardly any coverage). The reason I love it is because it gives you such dewy skin and even skin. If you just want to give your complexion a boost use it, if you need coverage or have oily skin avoid it.

The pro longwear concealer is perfect, no other one on the market can beat the job it does. It's so thin yet it can cover anything. Such magic, much love.

Lastly fix+. This is the do all product of the earth we live on. You can use it to moisturize your face, or spray it on top of your makeup to make it set nicely. You can use it with loose pigments or regular eyeshadows to make them really opaque and shimmery by spraying some on your brush. It's amazing, I think that everyone can find a way to use this and love it.

LIPS

If you have been keeping up with my blog, you are very aware of my obsession with matte neutral pinky nudes for my lips. So I bought a lot of the same color in different stick forms and here they are.




These are my new fav products, since I bought them about a week and a half ago they are the only things I use. They are all so pigmented and matte I'm in love. So I bought the elf one first and then picked up the inglot ones and they are the same damn thing. Only diffrence is that the elf on it 3 bucks and the inglot are like 19 bucks. Soooo the choice is yours.

COLOURS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT

Inglot Lip Crayon in 17 
Elf Matte Lip Colour in Praline 
Inglot Lip Crayon in 22



These are the other lip products that I bought that aren't lip crayons. 

PRODUCTS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in LOLITA

This friggen product is the best lip product I have ever used! That's a lot for me to say, considering lip stuff is my fav. This liquid lipstick does not budge it literally lasted all day to the point where my friend was like "what do you have on your lips". I loved it so much from the point that I put it on my lips that I wanted to go buy more so I never run out of it.

Inglot Lipstick in 405

Another spot on product from inglot! This lipstick is so matte and so opaque is almost as flawless as my mother beyonce. I love these more than mac shadows tbh. It also has really pleasing packaging if you care.

L'oreal Extraordinaire by Colour Riche in Molto Mavue 

This is my typical lip colour but in a glossy form just for when I wanna not do that matte look. Plus its cheap, so I dig it.

EYELASHES


I've been getting into falsies because I enjoy being overdressed for every occasion. These ones are ther 203 by Ardell and these give you a hella dramatic look which I love because i'm hella dramatic. They are super nice and fluffy I recommend.

MAKEUP BAG




This amazing little sephora makeup bag was a generous gift from my mom in NYC. This bag is not the cheapest bag out there but bruh is is the ish. It is the most perfect travel bag; it has the perfect amount of brush holders and ideal pocket space.
Highly recommend to all you world travelers out there.

MAKEUP STORAGE


This beauty was something I have wanted for a long ass time, and now that it is mine I can consider my life a better place. This is the muji acrylic drawers that literally every makeup fiend has including the kardashians. It look so nice on top of you desk and keep your makeup so nice. I hope I can pick up more so I can stack them, because right now I just keep all of my everyday stuff in here.

YOU MADE IT TO THE END.
