Quick + Easy Everyday Makeup Routine


Hey Y'all!
So it's been a minute since I posted about makeup so I thought I'd share a quick rundown of my go-to every day routine.
*Disclaimer- I don't wear makeup every day, but if I want to wear a little and I'm in a hurry, this is my jam!
Honestly, even when I'm not in a hurry because ain't nobody got time for all that! *shrugs
Occasionally I'll switch a thing or 2 up- a cream contour or add Stila kitten to my lid, but for 
the most part these are the main products I reach for.
This look is super natural with a little UMPH!

All items will be pictured & linked below as well as a little description of how I use them.  :-)

*The only item not listed is Urban Decay Shadow in "DarkHorse"- I use it to fill in my brows a bit.

1. Clinique Stay Matte Foundation 
Helps control that oil, honey!

2. Garnier Combo to Oily BB Cream
I mix the Clinique & Garnier together for additional shine control.
I'm a grease ball in the summer!
The Clinique is a bit thick, so I mix them to thin it out.

3. Garnier Anti Dark Circle Eye Roller
I apply this first before any additional concealer.

4. Maybelline Fit Me Concealer
I apply this under my eyes after the Garnier roller, as well as the bridge of my nose, chin, and forehead.

5. Neutrogena Shine Control Powder
To set my under-eye and t-zone.

6. Laura Mercier Bronzer
I use this as bronzer on the hallows of my cheeks, forehead, and apply it to my eyelid crease.

7. Nars Orgasm Blush
Obvi where this goes, ain't it? lol
Them cheeks girl!

8. Maybelline Master Highlighter
Cheekbone highlight, tip of nose, and a little above my brows.

9. L'Oreal Lash Paradise Mascara
Apply this gem to my top & bottom lashes.
Seriously guys, soooo good!  It's been replacing my Carbon Black lately. Say whaaat?!

10. Maybelline Falsies Push-Up Drama Mascara
I apply this to my top lashes over the L'Oreal just to make them a bit bolder.

11. L'Oreal Colour Riche Balm in "Nourishing Nude"
Love this stuff!  Super natural color & moisturizing!



Annnnd you're done.
Hope you guys enjoyed!!
Til Next Time...

Terin

Buy Now, Wear Now + Transition Into Fall


1. Balloon Sleeve Top by H&M 
I'm just really living, breathing, dying, and resuscitating for the bell/ balloon sleeve trend!
Really think this is an awesome transition piece and it's also super versatile to dress up or down.

2. Ispark Bootie by Indigo Rd
Snagged these beauts the other day!  Can't wait for them to arrive. 
The open toe booties are super on trend right now. 
Also- DSW is doing a BOGO half off on ALL shoes so I ended up getting these for about $15 since they were already on sale!
Score!!

3. Corbin Genuine Calf Hair Loafer by Halogen
Something about loafers are just so appealing to me lately and every wardrobe needs a pop of cheetah because...RAWR

4. Mid-Rise Rockstar Distressed Jeans by Old Navy
SERIOUSLY you guys, these are the most comfortable pair of jeans I've owned in my entire life!
I want to live in them!
  They do run large and are super stretchy.  I'm usually a 6, I got these in a 4 and they're soooo dreamy. 

5. Mid-Rise Rockstar Jeans by Old Navy
I recently picked these up along with a dark denim pair..  I'm telling y'all that 1 pair really has me on a kick for Old Navy jeans.  I'm obsessed. 
They're also doing a good sale right now. 😉

6. Eyelet Layer Sleeve Tee T-Shirt by Topshop
Again these damn poofy sleeves.  Can't get enough.  
These sleeve details are major this season you guys!
I feel like this is an adorable piece to add to your closet, it just has the cutest details.  
Very baby doll vibe.  

7. Leopard Print Scarf by BP.
Scarfs on scarfs on scarfs.  They're a must.  Especially blanket scarves because if you get too chilly they can be a blankie too!  It's like a 2 for 1. 
Perfect pop of leopard to add to a casual look.  

8. Shepp Bootie by Steve Madden
Really loving these!  Super good deal from DSW.
They're also really reminiscent of pairs I've seen at Nordstrom but for way less dollhairs! (not a typo)
And don't forget they're doing a BOGO half off!
Run- don't walk.



And that's all folks!
I hope y'all enjoyed this post.  
As always feel free to leave any questions/ suggestions in the comments- discount codes & links are below.
Til next time...

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale | Try-On Haul


1. Chelsea28 Bell Sleeve Sweater -Click Here to Shop-
2. Ugg Wrin Rib-Knit Slipper -Click Here to Shop-
3. Leith Blouson Sleeve Sweater -Click Here to Shop-
4. Reebok Favorite Oversize Crew Sweatshirt -Click Here to Shop-
*Sale ends August 6th- Prices go up August 7th.



So this post is a bit late going up because I sat for a week obsessively refreshing pages trying to snag more items that I desperately needed..  oops.
Things sold out extremely fast, some have come back in stock (and sold out again), and some are still available! *Shocked face- grab the defibrillator! 
I've been waiting to post this because I wanted it to be a "try-on" style haul and I was waiting on 1 more package to arrive. :-)
And now we're all set to rock this so let's hop into it! Ribbit...
(I'm hopping this frog pun isn't too corny. Haha.)




I chose this beaut because it's just so unique and unlike anything else I own..  
Big sleeves are so on-trend right now and I must admit I am totally diggin it.
I chose the "pink adobe" color because I don't typically buy any pink clothing.
I must say in person the color is more gorgeous than I expected.  
It's a pink/purple/mauve color, very unique- and super soft!
This thing has me craving Fall..  Bring on the pumpkin spice!!!








This was the 1st piece I seen that got me interested in the sale.
I don't own any bell sleeve tops and I love that there is a fitted sleeve underneath so that your whole arm isn't out for the world with the least little movement and it'll actually keep you warm in the chillier months.
I'm really surprised this sweater didn't sell out immediately!
I was up at 7am the day that the sale opened to the public to make sure I snagged this!
Super soft and it makes me feel like a fabulous butterfly that just busted out of it's cocoon.







This Reebok sweatshirt!  UHHHH you guys, it's like lounging in a cloud.
I love that it doesn't have a hood like a lot of others do, because hoods just cause issues.  
They ride up your neck, they mess up your makeup, they mess up your hair... 
Just not a good time.
This is just thick enough to keep you cozy, the side slits are a great detail, it covers your butt so it'll be perfect with leggings, and I can just tell y'all now I'll be living in this!
I'm also loving the pocket.  
I love hoodies/ sweatshirts with pockets!  Idk. It's my thing, let me live.







Again... Something I'm for sure going to be living in.  All day err day!
I was a bit nervous after reading the reviews saying that these run extra small.
I'm usually a 7.5- I ordered a 9 and they fit perfectly with just enough room left to wear socks if I want.
I have the other UGG slipper that doesn't have a back and I've pretty much worn them to death, so I thought these would be great plus they have a back to keep my whole foot warm!
Seriously they were such a bargain how could I not?! Usually $119, on sale for under $80!
Plus, they're just sooo cute, right?!

-Click Here to Shop-




And that's all for my NSale haul! -For now at least.. *covers eyes.
Hope y'all like my first try-on haul style post!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale | My Top Picks


Hey Ya'll!
So this is the first year I've been super pumped about the Nsale!
The sale opened to the public today July 21st & ends August 6th.
So before I jump into my top picks- here's a run down of the way it works.
 It opens to Nordstrom card holders first before it opens to the general public.
During those days, if you're a card holder you can purchase in store or order, and if you're not you can still browse the preview on their site which will show you everything that will be included in the sale, it's original price, sale price, etc etc..
The sale includes: Womens, Mens, Kids, Home, and Beauty.
I'm not a card holder because I would most likely be bankrupt, (jk..I have self control. Sometimes)
but I have been browsing all of the items as well as reading blogs and watching try-on hauls.
Last night I added all of the items I knew I want to a "wishlist" (which you can do on their site) so that I would be ready this morning (I set my alarm for 7AM... no biggie..).

Warning..  These items go quick!!!
Anything in your cart is not reserved and CAN sell out.
Luckily the main items I wanted I was able to snag this morning and the others I have open in my browser, and am still hoping to get them at some point if they come back in stock.
I've heard that if an item is out of stock Nordstrom restocks a lot of items every day, but I've also found that refreshing the page like a mad woman is rather effective as well. 
Whatever works, right?

So let me shut my mouth and get into it.
The following items are ALL items I am hoping to get my hands on and I feel confident
my life cannot go on without them.
*Original & Sale Price will be below the photo as well as a link to the item.

Bell Sleeve Sweater by CHELSEA28
Originally: $89.00
On Sale: $58.90
I snagged this beauty up because it's unlike anything I have in my closet.
Bell sleeves are super on trend, but this top is unique because under the bell sleeve is a built in fitted sleeve so that your arm is still covered and warm.
I think that's a great unique touch.

Rib Knit Open Cardigan by DREAMERS BY DEBUT
(Currenty Sold Out- Will update prices later.)
I am anxiously refreshing the page over and over just praying to get this!
It looks so snuggly and amazing.  A chunky cardigan is a staple for Fall & Winter.
All of the reviews say it's amazing.
Wrin Rib-Knit & Genuine Shearling Slipper by UGG
Originally: $119.95
Sale Price: $79.90
Grabbed these up first thing!  
I'll probably wear these as shoes, majority of the UGG 'slippers' are more like shoes.
I have the open back slippers and live in them, so I thought these would be great too.
Reviews say they run extremely small, I'm usually a 7.5 and ordered a 9.
Corbin Genuine Calf Hair Slide Loafer by HALOGEN
Originally: $89.95
Sale Price: $59.90
I think these are incredible!  Sassy and classic at the same time.
Everyone needs a little leopard in their life.  RAWR
(What sound does a leopard make?  Idk)
They're out of stock in my size *cries a river- but I'm keeping a check on them!

Favorite Oversize Crew Sweatshirt by REEBOK
Originally: $55.00
Sale Price: $35.90
Again..  I'm constantly refreshing the page hoping to get this.
I feel like this is something I'd just live in all winter.
It covers your butt so it's perfect for leggings.
The white color is called "Chalk/Grey" but a Nordstrom rep has assured me it's indeed white.

 V-Neck Pullover by BP.
Originally: $39.00
Sale Price: $24.90
Over-sized sweaters are a must.  They're just so versatile.
Snagged this in "grey med hthr".

 Blouson Sleeve Sweater by LEITH
Originally: $69.00
Sale Price: $45.90
This hidden gem isn't something I'd see online and say "yes, need it", but I seen
it featured in a try-on haul and it really caught my eye!
Right now it's only available in the color shown above, but if any other colors restock I'm definitely ordering!
Prasata Bootie by VINCE CAMUTO
Originally: $149.95
Sale Price: $99.90
Booties are everything lately.  I think these would be great transition shoes from Fall and into Winter.
I'm being indecisive over these just because I can't decide between black and brown- it would be silly to get the same shoe in 2 colors.... Or would it? Hm.




I'm also linking some of my favorite blogs that have done posts on the sale
as well as a couple try-on hauls that aided me in my decisions on what I just had to have.

Happy Shopping!

Terin

Sephora Collection Citrus Brush Cleaner | Review + Demo

Retails for $11.50 at Sephora
4.0 OZ
Paraben Free
Claims to clean & condition dirty makeup brushes without soap or water.
Can be found here.


Hey Ya'll!
So I decided to give this a try after an Ulta MUA told me she swears by the Parian Secrets formula.
The Sephora Collection brush cleaner is actually a collab with Parian Secrets and is the exact same formula just packaged differently.
You can find the original Parian Secrets cleaner online in various sizes for more reasonable prices, but I opted for Sephora's because it was easier to get a hold of and is in a handy dandy spray bottle.

So... Does it really work??
HECK YES!!!!
I am completely and utterly obsessed.  I'm really not quite sure how I ever lived without this stuff and I'm not sure I'll ever wash my brushes with soap and water ever again.. lol
2 sprays is all you need even on larger powder brushes, swirl the brush on a paper towel and it comes clean..
So clean that all of the junk that comes off of it may scare you.
It has a fresh Citrus smell (which I love) and leaves my brushes super duper soft.
This cleaner is quick drying, but does leave your brush a little damp afterward so I wouldn't recommend using it and then going in to do your makeup right away.  
Granted your brushes won't be as clean as if you scrubbed them with soap & water, I've found the foundation brushes are the hardest but it definitely gets majority of my brushes totally clean.
It's great as a spot cleaner in between 'real' washes.
*Demo below cleaning a foundation brush..


Another thing I use this for is to clean my foundation mixing pan.
I have such a hard time cleaning that darn thing with soap & water but just a half spray of this stuff and it wipes clean.

Overall, I definitely recommend this little miracle product.
I think this size bottle would last the average person quite a while.
I haven't even put a dent in mine and am already planning on purchasing back ups.
So go run, don't walk.
You need it.
Right now.
:-)
