At the
beginning of every month I’ll let you know what my top 5 favorites were in
makeup and/or skincare for the previous month.
Here’s what
I loved during the month of March:
1. Benefit Cosmetics Roller Lash
Mascara
I have a first impressions of
this mascara. I loved it then and I still love it. This mascara is amazing. It
really holds the curl and length all day while still keeping your lashes
looking natural. If I were ever to splurge on a mascara, it would be this one
(the full size is $24, I got mine as a free sample with purchase from
Sephora.com).
2. Urban Decay Naked 2 Eyeshadow
Palette
Even though I have a bunch of new eye shadows I want to use (like the new limited edition Maybelline Color Tattoos), I have found myself reaching for this palette most mornings. It has a good mix of light to dark shimmery shades. I don’t find the shimmer to be too much. These shadows last all day too. The double-ended brush that comes in the palette is high quality—one end it good for putting color on the lid and the other end is good for lining the eyes. The matte shade (Tease) is perfect for the crease. These shadows are so pigmented and blendable. Lately, I’ve been putting Verve (silvery-champagne color) all over my lid, Tease (taupe with the slightest hint of rose/purple) in the crease, Snakebite (medium brown) on the outer corner, Foxy (matte yellow-cream) on my brow bone and Bootycall (peachy champagne) on the inner corner. It’s my simple go-to look for mornings when I’m too tired to think about my eye makeup.
3. Cynthia Rowley Beauty Eyeliner in
Black
I received
this in my FebruaryBirchbox and have been loving it to tightline. This is a creamy liner so
it’s perfect for tightlining. I haven’t needed to put liner on my upper lash
line because this eyeliner is so pigmented.
4. L’Occitane Immortelle Precious
Night Cream
This stuff
is amazing! I’ve been using this since my eco-beauty moisturizer ran out and have loved it.
It is a very thick cream so a little goes a long way. It absorbs into the skin
nicely and when I wake up in the morning my skin looks and feels so hydrated
and smooth. I got this using my points at Sephora. I would love to purchase it
but it is super expensive ($7.2 for 1.7oz.). I hope Sephora has the deluxe size
sample again because I would definitely use my points!
5. Essence Lipliner in 11 In The
Nude
I mentioned
this lipliner in a recent haul post. This lipliner a great browny-pink nude color and is the other lip
product I’ve been reaching for this month. I wear this alone with some lip balm
over it or under most any other lipstick I’m wearing. It doesn’t dry my lips
out and leaves a nice color when my lipstick wears off.

products did you love during the month of March? Let me know!
