Beauty Spy: Total Beauty Babe Mary M. shares her picks

GL babe marym of Sacramento, CA spills her beauty bag secrets. Find out which scented product she hearts and why she’s grateful for the vampire trend…

 

Three ways to describe my beauty style: Pretty in pink, Love to switch it up, Total beauty babe—Love giving advice to my besties!

I like to take my own unique beauty style and blend it with suggestions from other beauty gurus. I love reading beauty books and looking in magazines for more ideas. I'm always watching YouTube videos from beauty bloggers to see what products they use and to see if those products would compliment my fair, sensitive skin. I always thought that being so pale was annoying, but then the vampire phase swept through, and suddenly, pale skin is considered beautiful again!

I wear makeup…Always--even if it's just some gloss

My best beauty tip: Don't apply foundation first. Do your eye makeup first, because if you apply foundation first, any excess shadow might fall below your eyes and ruin your foundation.
