HAUL| Fall 2013 Back-to-School Makeup ♥

Hey everyone! I'm sorry that this post is late but I've been moving apartments and didn't have internet for the past couple of days. Just got it today and started to post this!

 I know a lot of schools have already started but I won't until next week so technically, this still applies (¬‿¬) ! If you already have your back to school look planned already, there are more days in the school year so you could still try out these products for different occasions ≧◠◡◠≦

PRODUCT SMACKDOWN| Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer w/ Broad Spectrum SPF 30 versus Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer SPF 15

Moisturizers are very important. Keeping you skin hydrated and moisturized allows it to look healthy and glowing as well as allowing for a smoother application of your base makeup. Some moisturizers include other skin benefits like acne clearing, SPF, and more! In the ring today, we have Cetaphil Oil Control Moisturizer w/ Broad Spectrum SPF 30 and Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer SPF 15!

RE-DISCOVERY| Estee Lauder Deluxe Pure Color Eyeshadow Palette

Welcome back to my blog! Last week, I posted daily blogs to help start up my blog, which is still really exciting to me! It was pretty tough finding things to talk about but I made it through! From now on, I will be posting Mondays and Fridays :)

Back of palette with names of colors

"Re-Discovery" is, like the name implies, about finding things in my makeup collection that have been collecting dust for a while! It was so exciting going through it today to find the hidden gems of my collection. Getting new things is very exciting but sometimes, you already have a palette or item that performs wonderfully or even better! I forget why I put it away in the first place O﹏o I try to rotate palettes and stuff so that it all gets used, but sometimes, I get stuck on one item and forget about all the others (︺︹︺)

HAUL| Korean Skincare and Makeup

Welcome back to Makeup With a Heart♡ : Day 4! Today, I have a small haul for y'all. I really love Korean skincare and makeup products because they seem to work a lot better for my skin. Don't get me wrong, I love my U.S. drugstore products as well, but the cute packaging and innovative products always make me take out my wallet mindlessly (╥﹏╥). Let's not get stuck on that and move on to the actual products!

From L to R: Skinfood Aloe Sun Mist, It's Skin Cleansing Oil, Skinfood Waterproof Suncream, Skinfood No Sebum Sun Matte, Holika Holika Bulgarian Rose Eye Cream, Skinfood Salmon Darkcircle Concealer Cream

REVIEW| Skinfood Salmon Darkcircle Concealer Cream

Day 3 of Makeup With a Heart ♡ ! I've been on the lookout for a good dark circle concealer for ages! Some don't cover them up well enough, others are too thick or too drying, or are too glittery. But, I think I've fallen in love with the Skinfood Salmon Darkcircle Concealer Cream ❤ It comes in two shades: 01 Salmon Blooming and 02 Salmon Beige (which I have). I have had this product for a week and used it everyday.

Shade 02 Salmon Beige

REVIEW| Maybelline Baby Lips Electro Lip Balm

Welcome to Day 1 of Makeup With a Heart♡ !! In commemoration of my new blog, I will be updating daily for the first week. I haven't figured out a schedule to do so but will hopefully have one when my life is more settled.

 I'm a little late on this, but hey, better late than never \ (•◡•) /. I have tried other Baby Lips and loved them and so decided to get these too. I have three of them: Strike a Rose, Oh! Orange!, and Pink Shock (there are six total).

From L to R: Strike a Rose, Oh! Orange!, Pink Shock

First Post!: Beauty Profile ♥

Welcome to my first ever blog post! I have always been a fan of reading blogs for the latest makeup launches and reviews. I was always attracted to their functionality and briefness. I mean, it's all nice to see a live video demonstration, but I never really have enough time to sit down and watch a ten-minute+ long video! Reading blogs is a much quicker process. Long introduction aside, let's get to the Beauty Profile! 

I decided to make one because I'll be reviewing lots of products (hopefully!) and so might not have time, space or remember to keep telling people about my beauty needs. This reference guide will hopefully be useful in deciding if a product I review is right for you or if you should pass! My Beauty Profile will consist of my foundation, concealer, and powder shades, my skin tone, type, and concerns, as well as my hair type. If you have any questions, comments, or recommendations, I'd love to hear them!

XOXO,

MWAH ❤
