Hi Friends! As you know the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is tomorrow and I wanted to make sure you don’t forget about your beauty products this year. This is a great time to purchase makeup you’ve been dying to try or restock on some of your favorites, like that liquid foundation you just ran out of (I’m clearly in great need of this! Been waiting on the sale to restock). In today’s blog, I’ll be sharing with you some of my favorite beauty products that I use every day and some makeup I’m dying to get my hands on. Below is a reminder of the anniversary sale dates.

EVERYDAY WEAR
When it comes to my everyday wear, I’m a total full-coverage girl! I have redness in my skin and some imperfections I like to cover up, so getting a make-up that has great coverage is highly important to me. I’ve been using Lancome foundation for some time now and it gives me that full coverage I’m looking for without it feeling and looking caked-on. It gives my skin a healthy and natural glow giving me the perfect base for the rest of my makeup. I use the press powder as well to seal it in and complete the look. In the teint idole ultra wear foundation I wear color 220 buff or 260 bisque. In the dual finish powder, I wear 220 buff.
WHAT BEAUTY PRODUCTS I HAVE MY EYE ON
Ok, I’ve been dying to throw out old make-up and buy some new products. I figure this is a great time to get great quality make-up at some great affordable prices. Only during the sale are the prices marked down or special gifting items available. Once the sale event is over the prices go back to their original price. That is if the product is still in stock. ALL THE GOOD STUFF SELLS QUICKLY so you want to be sure you get early access to the sale so you don’t miss out.
This sultry red lip set is iconic and a limited edition set. This set has three iconic textures; the velvet matte lip pencil a lip product that gives you the convenience of a pencil with the application of a lipstick in a jumbo-size crayon design. The velvet lip glide is a high-pigment formula that glides on like a gloss, cloaks like a lipstick and feels like nothing else. Powermatte Lip Pigment is a liquid pigment with a zero-gravity feel that offers matte color saturation with ultra-flexible long wear.
I love a good contour and I’m in need of a new palette and I have my eyes set on the Contour Pro by Lorac. Ever since discovering how to contour I seriously can’t do my make-up without it. If you haven’t tried it yet, do it! You’ll thank me later. I’ve always loved the look of a great cheekbone and would pound the blush on to help extenuate that look, but ever since I’ve found contouring in my life it gives my cheekbones the look I want without overdoing the blush. I can’t wait to try this palette out.
I love wearing neutral colors and this Times Nine Eyeshadow Palette screams me. It has an array of textures, ranging from matte to lustre to frost, it lets you create a variety of looks for both day and night. There are saturated, soft and smooth with all nine hues that are packaged in one sleek compact for easy portability. There are five different color palettes to choose from. This is also great for traveling.
