This lipstick was featured in my April Favorites video.. I know it came out at the end of the month, but I fell in love with it that fast!!! This is a very pretty coral color that fits right in line with the orange/coral lip trend for spring! This is definitely a color for those who may not want to do the bright orange, but still keep you in with the trends. This color is well pigmented, and still gives me a nude feel (on my skintone). I did not feel like it was drying my lips, which a lot of lipsticks tend to do.

I have been changing my skincare routine a lot and I wanted to try out a cleanser that I used when I visited my sister in New York! St. Ives Naturally Clear Green Tea Cleanser claims to clear breakouts and reduce redness….. and I ACTUALLY AGREE WITH THEM!!! My skin is the clearest it has been in a while, and when I do have random pimples they’re not nearly resembling the pulsing red mountain they usually are.

With the weather warming up you have to work even hardEr to keep your makeup (and your body) fresh!!! I’m going to give you guys a list of 3 essential items that I think are a definite MUST to beat the heat!!!!
