I have loved playing with makeup since I was a little girl. Of course it started out with blue eyeshadow and bright pink lipstick...What little girl knew better? I sure didn't! When I was a teenager, I wanted to wear as much make up as I could. It was usually thick black liner on my eyelids with even thicker mascara. Yikes! As time has gone on, I've started to see that less is more and the 'natural' look really is the most beautiful (why didn't I listen to my Mom when she tried to tell me that?) So, I try to keep my everyday makeup looking as fresh and natural as possible.
As promised, I have prepared a post to show you all of the hair and make up products I use daily, which are the products I have used in all of my photos.
As you may notice, all of the products in the makeup photo are 'drug store brands'. As much as I want to say spending more on your beauty products will give you better results, I personally have NEVER found that the case. I have bought makeup from brands like Chanel, Guerlain, Smashbox, Mac etc. and I still come back to these inexpensive brands! Do you notice a difference between the expensive and inexpensive brands? If you do please let me know in the comments. I would love to hear another opinion!
The one product in the photos I don't mind spending extra on is the Moroccan hair oil. This stuff is magical! But I have to say, I have more uses for the oil than just for my hair. I LOVE to moisturize my face with it. Moisturizing your face with oil seems like a recipe for disaster, I know, but it has never caused a break out! I rub about a pea size drop on face before bed, and in the morning my skin is super smooth and smells great. I haven't used lotion to moisturize my face in a year!

He amado jugar con maquillaje desde que era una nina. Por supuesto he empezado con azul sombra de ojos y lapiz labial muy rosa...Que nina sabia otra cosa? Yo no! Cuando era una adolescente, yo queria pintarme tanto como pude. Usualmente mucho maquillaje negro en mis ojos. Que fea! Despues de tiempo, he empezado a creer que menos es mas y ser natural es mejor (debo eschuchar a mi madre!) Entonces, intento tener un aspecto natural y fresco.
Como prometi, he preparado un post para mostrar todos mis productos que uso cada dia. Estan los productos que he usado en todos de mis fotos del blog.
Como tu ves, todo de los productos de maquillaje son productos de 'drug stores'. Puede ser que pagando mas en tus productos de belleza tengas mejores resultados, yo nunca he tenido esta experiencia. He comprado maquillaje de marcas como Chanel, Guerlain, Smashbox, Mac etc. y todavia yo vuelo a las marcas baratas! Tu notas diferencias entre los dos tipos de marcas? Si si, escribeme en los comentarios. Quiero saber otra opinion!
El unico producto en las fotos que no me importa pagar mas es el aceite de Morocco. La cosa es marvillosa! Necesito decir que tengo mas usos para el producto que solo en el pelo. Me encanta usarlo para el piel de mi cara tambien! Lo se, usar aceite para la cara parece una receta para desastre pero no, yo nunca tengo problemas con mi piel! Yo pongo una cantidad tamano de guisante antes de dormir, y en la manana my piel esta super suave y huele muy bien. Yo nunca mas usare locion!
