Beauty Spy: Retro and girly Maya C.


This Southern girl from Kentucky knows how to play up her pale complexion with pretty pinks and nudes. But she’s not afraid to experiment with brave looks (She loves a good cat-eye—a girl after our own hearts). Here are Maya C.’s best beauty secrets: 

 

Two words to describe my beauty style: Edgy and punk

How I would describe my beauty style: I like trying out today's makeup trends, but I also like attempting retro looks. You can’t go wrong with a good cat-eye! I like wearing a different look every day.

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

My best beauty tip: Experiment with new looks. Some might be an utter disaster, but you might end up finding a style that’s stunning on you.

My favorite lip product: Baby Lips Lip Balm by Maybelline

Why I love it: It keeps my lips plush and moisturized. Fruit punch is my favorite flavor, because the hot pink shade is perfectly pretty and it smells exactly like fruit punch!

My fave skin care product: Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion by Clinique

Why I love it: Just because I have oily skin doesn't mean my skin can't get dry. I use this at night and my skin feels hydrated and smooth by morning.
