ALL OF THE GLOSSIER GOODS

If you know me, then you know I'm an absolute Glossier junkie. It was love at first Balm Dotcom! Seriously. Glossier's mantra is "skincare first, makeup second" and they have the best line for girls who favor a natural dewy kind of vibe. Every product fits well into my beauty regime. I mean, it makes up most of my skincare and makeup routine at this point. I adore every product I've ever tried (which is all of them) and have repurchased some multiple times! So, here's the low down on a few of my faves.

1. Balm Dotcom // $12 // Buy it. The best multi-use skin salve that also comes in different flavors! 

2. Haloscope // $22 // Both Quartz and Topaz are magical but get your hands on Moonstone in the new Black Tie Set before it sells out!

3. Boy Brow // $18 // I've repurchased this one a few times and my brows won't go without it. I dedicated a whole blog post to this guy a while ago!

4. The Supers // $28 each // The newest additions to my skincare routine. I like the freedom of adjusting my skincare to the needs of my skin. Mix and match them if you're into that too!

5. Milky Jelly Cleanser // $18 // Probably on my fourth bottle of this stuff. It takes off your makeup gently cleanses your skin. A must have if you are new to Glossier!

FACE OF THE DAY

Getting ready in the morning is always such a drag, but the part I look forward to the most is when I can sit at my vanity and put my face on. Now, I do favor a more natural makeup look, but I take my time and enjoy the process. Half of the fun for me is trying new products and some of these bits are old favorites while others are fresh on my radar.

NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer: I have been using this for a solid year now. It smells nice, is super light on the skin, and looks fresh on the face. I recommend applying it with your fingers; saves time and is one less brush to wash!

Wayne Goss Brush No. 2: Speaking of brushes! This is the brush that I hear every beauty guru gush about and now I know why. First off, it feels like luxury. The bristles are the softest out there and it is the perfect shape to highlight/contour. That's all I really use it for but if any powder products peak your interest, then you need this brush. 

YSL Touche Eclat Neutralizer: This is the newest member to the everyday makeup team and I can't see myself without it. The rose gold tube looks pretty on my vanity while the peachy toned concealer inside totally hides the fact that I don't get enough sleep. Bye-bye under eyes!

Marc Jacobs Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara: Another tube sitting pretty on the vanity. Mascaras are a necessity for me but I tend to be super picky with formulas. I've been keen on this one since it doesn't smudge and gives me va-va-voom lashes ASAP!

Tweezerman Lash Curler: A tool that goes hand-in-hand with mascara. My lashes need a good pump or two to stay nice and lifted before any mascara goes on.

Glossier Balm DotCom: This skin salve will forever be a favorite. I have a tube on my vanity, in every purse, on my bedside table, everywhere. If you've never tried Glossier, this is a staple. Go get 20% off here! (P.S. Phase 2 came out! Currently placing my order...)

Bobbi Brown Creamy Lip Color: When I'm not rocking the natural balmy lip, I'm wearing this. I don't tend to wear lipstick all that much but this one is comfortable to wear and adds a nice color and subtle sheen to enhance my pout.
