My three favorite beauty products for the week

Hello Beautiful,

Here are my three favorite beauty products for this week.


1) Too Faced-Lip Insurance $19.00 This lip primer is hydrating and works great for people that put on a lip product and it bleeds into fine lines around the mouth. This anti-feathering product is quick-drying and locks in lip products so they won't fade, feather or transfer.


2) Aveda-Nourish-Mint Renewing Lip Treatment $16.00 This lip treatment smooths the appearance of fine lines helping with lip products bleeding. Over time the lips become naturally plump using organic spearmint and has a vanilla flavor.


3) MAC-Prep + Prime Lash $17.00 This lash primer gives lashes a plump-undercoat under mascara making it last longer, lashes become more intense and longer. This product smoothes and conditions lashes and works good under any mascara formulas.


Thank You very much for taking time out to read my beauty blog. If you have any comments, questions or want me to do a beauty product review please comment in the box below.

Yours in Beauty,

Tuesday tip Dec. 2nd 2014

Hi Beautiful,


    Hello! I thought this would be a great holiday season tip. Crush up a sparkly eyeshadow you never use and mix it with clear nail polish for your own custom shade.

I hope that you and yours had a great Thanksgiving Day.

Stay Beautiful,
Heather Williams
