Look Sun Kissed Year Round!

No creative title for this one...Well, I thought about saying, "It's blaming outside" but then I was like ehh, lets just get into this post!

I have been switching up some of my products with my normal make up routine.  I usually use Benefit Hoola bronzer, which I love, to contour my face, but I recently went back to using Bahama Mama by the Balm.

I have used this product before and I don't know why I switched.  Probably just to get something different in my life.  This is an amazing product for contouring! The color is a rich brown color with out much read so it gives you a deep contour.  This is suuuupppeeerrrr pigmented so a little goes a long way.  I noticed over the past few weeks since I started using it again, my face looks like I just came back from a tropical island with an amazing tan (hence the Bahama Mama Name!).  The structure of my face after I contour with this color is georg too!

This brand tends to be on Hautelook a lot, and that is where I first purchased products.  I heard a lot of talk about them via Youtube and I finally tired Bahama Mama and Mary Lou-Manizer, a beautiful high lighter.

Mary-Lou Manizer is a shimmery champagne color.  If I am not using this on my cheekbones, then I put this right under my brow bone.  It's the perfect hint of color that catches the light and keeps your face glowing.

I really love these two products.  I have branched out to purchase more items, but I have their liquid liner, Swing, on my list and a bunch of their eye shadows.  They have really great pallets.

I love their packaging too! It's so cute.

Check out their sale this friday on Hautelook!  Trust me, I will remind you on Thursday!!!!!

Alert! The Balm Cosmetics on Hautelook!

 

If you haven't tried something from The Balm Cosmetics already, you need to head over to Hautelook and start shopping!

I first heard of this line through another beauty blogger and became obsessed with their Mary Lou-Manizer highlighter and their Bahama Mamma Bronzer.  I am always on the hunt for a good bronzer that is matte, teh perfect brown and something that doesn't break down from my oily skin after a few hours.  Bahamma Mamma is perfect for contouring the face, or applying, lightly, because it is very pigmented, as an all over color to give you a sun kissed look. 

 

Mary Lou-Manizer is to die for also! With a name like Mary Lou-Manizer, how could you not want to buy it!  Beyond the great name, it also has amazing qualities.  It is a really great light goldish bronzer.  It pairs really well with a neutral face or anything with pink undertones to it.  This high lighter catches the light just right and gives you that extra pop on your face to give your skin more dimension and lift!

 

 

The Balm eye shadows are super pigmented also! They have a great option of palettes.  The Balm Voyage is great if you are looking for something with fun colors that will give you a lot of looks.  If you want something all nude to create more natural or subtle looks, then get their Nude'Tude Palette.  Meet Matte Nude is one of the few all matte color palettes out there, so grab this one to pair with any palette you currently have, or to just wear on their own.

 

 

Trust me, you will be very happy with the products and the price of this line! So, get shopping and let me know what you end up buying!
