I have been obsessing over anything ruffle and frills lately. This sweater is beyond my favourite and is it seriously so cute and girly. Have some detail on the sleeves just dresses up a casual look or you can totally dress it up to with a skirt.
I have been meaning to do a beauty post for some time now and I can't wait to review this amazing foundation with you guys. To start off, it won Allure Reader's Choice Award in 2016.
I have been using the It Cosmetics CC+ Full Coverage Cream with SPF 50+ for over a month and a half now and holy shoot you guys, I am so impressed. I wanted to use it for at least a month or two before I wrote a review on it because I wanted to give my most honest opinion and there is no better way in doing that than using a product for at least a month. Everyone's skin is different and you just don't know how products will react on your skin unless you use it for several weeks.
So first of all, I am going to give you a short little history on my skin. I have oily combination skin with the tenancy of breakouts along my jaw line and chin area. I have sensitive skin as well which is another reason why I wanted to use this product for at least a month because in the past when I have tried something new, the first few days to a week were great but if my skin isn't digging the new product then all hell breaks loose on the second week and lets just say my face is a pimply mess. Not cute!
Before using the It Cosmetics, I was using Bareminerals Bareskin Pure Brightening Serum Foundation which I love by the way but my face still wasn't exactly liking that foundation and the breakouts were still happening here and there. I then discovered the It Cosmetics CC + Full Coverage Cream and read so many amazing reviews that I knew I had to try it. I mean, what did I have to loose?
I am in the shade "Light." I have read and watched Youtube videos that if you don't know what shade you are, you should choose the colour medium. Medium is the most popular shade and that is actually the colour I purchased when I first ordered it but after receiving it, it was too dark for my skin tone, especially this time of year being the winter months. I sent it back and ordered "Light" and it was the perfect shade. I do often self tan in the winter which makes the light shade blend nicely but I am sure if I would have kept the Medium it would have worked just as well.
As you can see, it has a pump on the end which I really like. A little goes a long way so you don't want to use too much. I only use 2 to 3 pumps and that is all I normally need. The smell of this foundation is nice and it's not stinky like some other foundations can be. It almost smells like citrus which is nice and refreshing. The finish it leaves is amazing. Your face feels hydrated, your pores are definitely minimized and your face has a beautiful glow and dewyness to it which I specifically look for in a foundation. Even though this foundation has an SPF 50+ I still ALWAYS apply my own sunscreen underneath for extra protection.
I apply the foundation with the It Cosmetics Heavenly Luxe Dual Foundation/ Concealer brush. This brush applies the foundation nice and evenly and gives the perfect finish. I always buff the foundation into my skin in a circular motion for an even finish. I sometimes use the other end of the brush to apply my concealer under my eyes but I have to be honest, I tend to use my fingers majority of the time since I prefer that method better.
Not only does this foundation deliver everything that is says it's suppose to do but my complexion has improved significantly. I haven't been having any breakouts what so ever, the foundation stays in place all day and it is so easy to remove at night with your cleanser. This foundation is definitely a win in my books and I highly recommend you guys give it a try. Like the front of the box says, "Your Skin But Better." They couldn't have said it any better. It's legit!
This is a recent picture of me that I had shared on my Instagram page {sincerelymissash} wearing the It Cosmetics CC+ Cream SPF 50+.
If you are looking for a pair of running shoes, specifically Nike's, then you need the ones that I am wearing. I can't even describe to you how comfortable these Nike Free's are. When I say it's like you are walking on a cloud, I promise to you it really is. It's like you don't even have shoes on. These are my second pair that I have owned {the other ones being a different colour} and they both fit and feel the exact same. When I go for runs, walking for long periods of time or even going to the gym, these shoes will be your best friend and not to mention, they look cute with any outfit.
Let's talk about this ribbed asymmetrical mini skirt shall we.... It has an elastic waistband for extra comfort and stretch which I love because it makes those tops that much easier to tuck in.. Since this skirt is neutral, you can literally pair any top, sweater, tank, blouse you want with it and your choice of shoes are endless as well. It is super affordable and is a great piece to have in your wardrobe.
This lace sweater is everything. Cute right? I haven't stopped wearing it since I bought it and I literally wear it everywhere. This sweater looks really cute with a pair of flats and dark denim jeans to wear to the office or even paired with a pencil skirt and a cute pair of heels.
Also, these jeans have the perfect amount of stretch for those casual/ weekend days when you want to be comfortable but yet still put together. You won't regret buying these jeans. I promise!
Wow, 2016 has seriously came and gone so quickly. I really hope that 2017 is an even better year for everyone and that it goes even that much slower.
I am starting this new year off in black. Like, obsessed with this choker crop top. We all know that these types of tops have been on trend for a while and it's the "new craze" these days. I have worn this top so many times over the holidays it's unreal. The jeans are beyond comfortable and they have the perfect amount of stretch to them as well which is what I look for in a high rise jean.
Both the top and the jeans are so affordable and they are worth every penny.
