Makeup Revolution Blushing Hearts Triple Baked Highlighters Swatches & Review

I knew immediately upon seeing a picture on Pinterest of the three Makeup Revolution Blushing Hearts Triple Baked Highlighters that I absolutely had to have them.  The packaging was Instagram-worthy cuteness and the highlighter shades looked stunning.  And for only $7.00 each at Ulta, it was a no brainer that I was destined to purchase all three.

One of the very first videos I ever filmed for YouTube almost a year ago was a review and swatches video of the three Makeup Revolution Vivid Baked Highlighters, which I still love and use to this day.  Makeup Revolution makes great high quality makeup at drugstore prices.  My next venture into their brand will be to try their lip products, as their rose gold lipsticks and salvation velvet lip lacquers are calling my name, as well as their gorgeous metal makeup brushes.

Check out the tutorial below for my complete review of all three Blushing Hearts highlighters, where I give you my completely honest review and swatches of all shades.

SPRING Warm Makeup Tutorial | DEWY AND GLOWING

Ahhh Spring!  The warm shades, the dewy cheekbones, the glowing makeup looks...with every new season comes the refreshing feel of new makeup and beauty products that suit the season.  I am in love with warm makeup shades, and there is no better time to use them than Spring.

I always tend towards warm oranges, pinks and reds, as I feel they look best with my own hair and skin tone.  However, don't feel like these are the only warm shades you can use - venture out and try warm toned pastels, such as blues, purples and greens. 

I also love a "dewy" or "glowing" look during this particular season.  Of course, if dewy and glowing is your thing then feel free to rock it all year long, but for my combination skin Spring is neither too hot nor too cold for a little extra dewiness.  So go crazy with that oil and highlight, and check out the tutorial!

How To Get Perfect Brows in 3 Steps | Brow Tutorial for Beginners

It took me many years to find a good eyebrow shape and an eyebrow maintenance routine.  In high school I did the inevitable no-no that all girls mid-puberty tend to do at that point in their lives: I over-plucked my eyebrows.  Significantly.

Looking back at pictures the best I can describe their appearance is that of a thin-lined upside down semi-circle that began way too far inward and ended well before it should have.  Basically, it resembled something scarcely called an eyebrow with very few actual hairs left after my plucking sessions.

Sadly, like most, the damage was done.  While most of my eyebrow hair have grown back I still find myself in my adult years with sparse brows and areas that never regrew.  Damn those easily accessible Sally Hansen tweezers.

So what does one do when one hath pluckith too much?  One goes to Sephora and tries out as many brow products as possible to try to salvage what is left of one's poor teenage decisions.

I've tried products from the drugstore, Sephora and Ulta, and I can say without a doubt that good brow products are worth the splurge.  Can you find some great drugstore dupes for those high end items?  Absolutely, but results may vary.

In this tutorial I use two high-end products and one drugstore product to achieve what I've deemed the "perfect brows" (at least for me).  It's the routine I've come to after years of practice to give me the full, natural looking eyebrows that I've desired since my youth.

EVERYDAY LONG LASTING Makeup Routine & Tutorial | Tips for ALL Skin Types!

Unless you are a beauty blogger or vlogger, the average person does not have many days of the year where they get "glammed up."  Usually you fall into an everyday makeup routine, finding and sticking to your favorite products, and never stray too far from your trusted brands.

My everyday makeup routine changes by the season, sometimes by the month.  As a YouTuber and Beauty Blogger, I am always finding and using new and upcoming products, incorporating them into my makeup routine as a method of "putting them to the test."

My penchant for trying new products, and subsequent makeup addition, has lead me to this: my go-to everyday long lasting makeup routine.  I choose products for those days I know I will be out that won't leave my normal-to-oily skin looking like a greased hamburger at the end of the day.

In this video I also give some tips and tricks for choosing shades of makeup for different skin tones, including highlight, blush, and bronzer, and how to achieve that natural, fresh and matte everyday look!

ALL PINK Breast Cancer Awareness Inspired Makeup Tutorial

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month!  This is clearly evidenced by the all-pink-everything theme being showcased in store windows and worn by professional athletes.  The goal of using the color pink is to bring awareness to a cause and help to fund the research for a cure.

This all pink makeup look was inspired by the amazing and powerful women that are currently battling, have survived and have died of breast cancer.  I really loved the end result of this tutorial and the simple yet brightly featured pink fading eye look.  This tutorial is super easy to re-create, it only take a little bit of time and patience blending out that hot pink shade, and a lot of love and inspiration provided by a great cause.

Get your PINK ON!

Easy Wicked Witch Halloween Makeup Tutorial | Green Eyes & Ombre Bitten Lips

My annual Halloween makeup and costumes are almost always last minute, and over the years I've had to get creative finding interesting but easy costume ideas.  I've always loved makeup and it has continued to be the centerpiece of every Halloween look I do.

While this Wicked Witch inspired makeup look MAY appear difficult to re-create, it's actually very simple!  The goal with makeup is to have fun with it and remain creative.  I used just a few different shades of greens and yellows to achieve this look, and a lot of blending.  While you are re-creating this look you can blend and move the colors around in any way that you like; in other words, make it your own!

The "bitten" lip was a fun addition, but unnecessary if you don't have these dark lip colors handy.  A bright red or even nude lipstick would go great with this.  Add some Wicked Witch accessories like a hat, nails, black robe, or broomstick, and you're ready for that Halloween party!
