Three ways to describe my beauty style: Classic and Glam, Pretty in Pink, and Total beauty babe--love giving advice to my besties

I wear makeup… A full face every day

My best beauty tip: Wear what is comfortable for you. I don’t believe in the phrase “less is more” because if I enjoy the look of more, then I'm going to wear more! If you have acne and wearing foundation makes you feel more comfortable and confident, then you rock that foundation! Don't ever let anyone make you feel bad for doing what works for you. Same goes for the girl who hates the feeling of lipstick, or doesn't like mascara: it’s all about what you feel best with. 

 

Fave lip product: L’Oreal Color Caresse by Colour Riche Lipstick in Rose Taffeta

Why I love it: These lipsticks are so pigmented and never dry out your lips. Rose Taffeta is perfect for getting those doll like rose bud lips. It is incredibly versatile; it looks great whether you're wearing a smokey eye or just some mascara.

Fave eye product: MAC Pigment in Pink Opal

Why I love it: When in doubt, pop on a duo chrome shadow, at least that's my motto. This pigment looks white but has a pink/purple undertone to it, meaning when the light hits your eye, you can't tell exactly what color the shadow is—it just looks luminous. I will wear this on its own with some mascara or with a smokey brown shadow for a more dramatic effect. Either way, this is my go-to. The price may seem a little steep but you will NEVER run out of the product. You only need a tiny pinch for both eyes.

Fave mascara: NYX Fly With Me Mascara in Jet Black

Why I love it: There are fibers in this mascara that build volume and length on your lashes. The rounded end makes it so easy to wing out my eyelashes.

Fave face color product: Tarte 24 Hour Amazonian Clay Blush in Amused

Why I love it: The Amazonian clay in this product absorbs oils, so the color stays on all day. Amused is the perfect color for any look and gives such a natural glow.

Fave tool: Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Buffing Brush

Why I love it: This brush makes it so easy to apply my foundation. I don't have much time in the mornings and this makes it so quick to buff in my foundation. I never have to worry about streaks.
