GRWM | Simple Daytime Glam

Hello loves! In this get ready with me I wanted to do a look that was simple but had a little something special to it so I did a bold lip using ColourPop Cosmetic's liquid lipstick in the shade Tulle. I kept the eyes very simple - to create the look I used the Jaclyn Hill Morphe Palette. I love this type of look for the day time - it's simple but is still glamorous.

How I Style a Bun: With & Without a Sock Bun



Hey everyone - welcome back! Today's video is going to be a little different. I wanted to show you guys two different ways that I style my messy buns. I do use a sock bun for one of the styles and it has seriously been a life savor. 

I hate the humidity so I have been wearing my hair up a ton this summer. I also like to wear my hair in a bun on 3rd & 4th day hair. I try to only wash my hair 2-3 times a week so wearing it up lets me wash my hair less.

I hope you enjoy - like this video if you want to see more hair tutorials. Thanks so much for watching

SmashBox Photo Finish Primer Water Review

I have never been the biggest fan of primers. I just never found 'the one' that felt right on my skin. I have rather normal to dry skin and really dislike the texture of many primers. Many of them have that silicone texture which just does not sit right with me. 

I am a much bigger fan of primers that provide moisture to the skin. I used to LOVE the Lorac AquaPrime and although I do not own it, I think I would be a lover of the TooFaced Hangover Rx primer because they both provide a more hydrating feeling. 

When I heard Smashbox released a Primer Water, I was all over it. I love sprays such as MACs Fix Plus and the fact that a product was created to apply to the skin before makeup that would help your products last longer and provide a refreshing boost of moisture made me a happy makeup junkie. The spray bottle makes application a breeze. Not only that, but it's a sanitary way to apply a primer as well. The pump distributes plenty of product with just a couple of sprays and the mist is nice and even so you don't have to hold the bottle at different angles to make sure your entire face gets covered. The mist of product feels so refreshing. It's an instant sensation of freshness and hydration to the skin. After letting the Primer Water set for a little while your makeup has a nice sheer canvas and application is really nice. The formula is made with out alcohol, oil, or silicones so it's suitable for all skin types :)

The spray can be used a couple of ways to ensure your makeup is locked in place. I personally could use this stuff all day long, especially with the warmer months approaching. You can use this as a true primer and spray it before your makeup, you can use it as a setting spray OR you can use with as a refreshing mist just to add some hydration to your skin. 

The Smashbox Prime Water also leaves the skin with a tacky feeling after a few seconds of application so it provides a base for your makeup to adhere to. 

Have you tried the Smashbox Primer Water?
