New Holy Grail Foundations?!

Sooo I have been trying this new foundation out for a little over two weeks now. I have had days where I loved it and days where I just can't stand it... But no joke it has become my Holy Grail foundation for those natural dewy looking days... I am talking about the Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation plus Concealer.. If you like full coverage but don't like looking Cakie... you need to try this, and if you are pale like me they actually have a color for us! It retails for $27.00 but totally worth it, being a little bit goes a really long way! You can always go to Clinique and get a sample if you do not want to commit to a whole bottle!

Beyond Perfection Foundation!

Duo chrome smokey eye tutorial

Decided to create  Duo-chrome look today after watching Batalash on youtube of her duo-chrome smokey eye!

Products I used-

Foundation: Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation in Breeze

Setting Powder: Coty Airspun in Translucent

Eyebrows: L'oreal Brow Stylist Definer

Eye Shadows: Morphe 35N Palette, ColourPop Super Shock Shadow in Kindness(sorry it can only be purchased in the metamorphosis colab quad with CoffeeBreakWithDani

Eye Liner: ELF Studio Eyeliner and Shadow stick

Mascara: Studio Gear Definitive Mascara

Highlighter: Physicians Formula Mineral Glow

Contour: ELF Contour Palette

Setting Spray: Mario Badescu Facial Spray

Lipstick: ColourPop Lippie Stix in Brink

Top 4 Circled in the picture above: First one I placed from brow to lash, next one over I used to define my crease, then the next row I used the first one to deepen my crease and outer edge, followed by the one next to it to blend everything together.(Sorry the shadows aren't named) I than took the shadow end of my elf liner and shadow stick and used it as a base on my lid, I blended that out with the two black circled shadows at the bottom of the palette. Then the star of the show, I applied ColourPop's Kindess all over my lid with a moist brush ( I use Mario Badescu Rose water to wet my brush) Followed that up by tight lining my upper and lower lashes and added a coat of mascara.

On my Face I used the Clinique Beyond Perfecting Foundation in the shade Breeze and applied that with a damp beauty blender. Followed by Coty Airspun powder to set my foundation. I used the ELF Contour Palette in light and highlighted with Physicians Formula Mineral Glow.

Then I set my makeup with a few sprays of Mario Badescu Facial Spray.

For lips I used ColourPop's Lippie Stix in Brink!

There you go! Now I would love to see this be recreated if you do recreate it make sure you tag me in it on instagram using #DuoChromeRosa! Oh and please comment below any ideas on what you would like to see next!
Thanks again for stopping by my until next time, stay beautiful!

Elf Shadow Lock Eyelid Primer

So I have had a couple of people ask me about eyelid primers, now I have quite a few sitting in my make up collection... but I always find myself reaching for the ELF shadow lock. Not only does it do its job and sometimes even better than my high end primers... BUT the biggest bonus is that it is only $2.00 that's right... $2.00 and not going to lie I think it works just as well if not better than the UD eye shadow potion! Don't believe me, try it yourself!  Here is a link to it!

LA Girl Haul!!!

Decided I wanted to come out of my daily norm and try some different products, I was looking around on YouTube and saw many beauty gurus using LA girl concealer so I figured, Hey why not?! Then the shopaholic in me came out and one item became six! Descriptions of products and links are below!

First product is the LA Girl PRO.powder HD loose translucent setting powder, which retails for $7.00. Wanting to see if it lives up to my expectations since I currently use Coty Air Spun powder to set my face.

Next is the LA Girl BB Cream in Fair, it retails for $7.00. Figured I would give it a try for those "no make up" make up days!

This was the whole reason for me placing the order LOL! The LA Girl Pro Conceal in Porcelain, it retails for $5.00, coming in cheaper than most drugstore concealers and lately I have heard many rave about it, so of course I needed to try it myself!

And last but not least, this is the LA Girl HD PRO Smoothing Face Primer, it retails for $7.00, I am in the market for a good yet affordable pore filling primer so I decided to give it a shot since I am out of my tride and true make up forever step 2!

    Well that was all I have in my haul today, promise there are more to come along with a holiday look I am putting together which should be up hopefully by Saturday! And as always thank you for stopping by my world!! Until next time...

New hauls and swatches coming soon!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't posted as often as I normally do but I have a morphe swatch/haul and a LA girl haul coming soon, and a possible holiday make up look!
