April Favorites!

Hello again! Is it really a new month already? I can't believe how fast the months are flying by. I feel like I've just posted a favorites post and now I'm writing one for April. I have been loving a lot of new products and I love sharing favorites so lets start!

Foundation- L'OREAL True Match Foundation


For my last favorites' post I had mention Kat Von D's lock it tattoo foundation. I said I wasn't going to repurchase so I decided to go back to drug store products. There is nothing wrong with drugstore products. It's cheap and most of the quality are good. Just like top brands, there are so many foundation to try. I've heard good things about this particular foundation. The drugstore ones that I've tried before were the old Maybelline Fit Me and Revlon Colorstay. This foundation is very blendable. It gives me full coverage and is super lightweight. It is definitely everything I look for in a foundation. The only complaint is that I don't really like pouring the foundation out of the bottle. It gets pretty messy. It will be easier if it's a pump. That way it can control how much foundation you're getting. I will probably go back to drug store products for now just because they are coming up with a lot of products. I'm pretty excited to try them out.

Primer- Maybelline's Master Prime (Blur + Smooth)


I have been using Benefit's PROREfessional face primer for a long time. I've recently ran out of it and have been deciding if I want to purchase it again. It is pretty pricey but for the price I guess it does last you for a while. It's a really excellent primer but it's not what I am going to talk about. I want to talk about Maybelline's master primer. This primer is really nice. I found out about it through a guru on Youtube. She had mention that this was a really good primer. I decided to try it out and it was definitely a great product. It was very nourishing and felt like a very relaxing moisturizer. It was supposed to blur and smooth what ever area you needed to smooth. They also come in two other ones which are supposed to help redness and illuminate. I originally wanted to try the redness one but Target had ran out of those so I picked this one up instead. So far it has worked great. It smooths out very nicely and gives a good base for me to apply my make-up on. And it is definitely cheaper then Benefit's POREfesional primer. I will definitely repurchase this one and hopefully I can get my hands on the redness one as well.

Bronzer- Lorac TANtalizer Highlighter & Matte Bronzer Duo



I grabbed this product in December wanting to try it out. I've heard so many great reviews on this product.  I got the small travel size one just to test it out. The exterior of this product is just beautiful. It's sleek and is the prefect size to carry around for travel. I finally got around to using this bronzer. I love the highlighter and bronzer duo. The highlighter highlights the cheekbone so nicely and the bronzer just contour so well. It is a perfect combination for contouring. I think that even if the travel size is small, it'll last for a while. I definitely like this product a lot and will consider purchasing it again.

Blush- Milani Baked Blush



This product is definitely an oldie. This was probably one of the products I got when I was in the process of learning how to put on make-up. It was my first blush when I was still a newbie. I don't think I really liked it that much so I kind of threw it in the back of my make-up collection. After cleaning out and throwing away some of my make-up products I saw this one again. I think I didn't really like this one because it was too shimmery for me. It made my cheeks shine and shimmer too much. I decided to give it another try because I ran out of the one I was using. I kind of like the shimmer it gives me now. It gives my face a nice shimmery glow. 

Lipstick- Rimmel London Provocalips 16 HR Kiss Proof Colour



The name of this lipstick is no joke. Many of you have probably heard of this kiss proof lipstick. It is genius! You can kiss, eat, drink, hit something with your lips and the color will not come off. I wore this lipstick out all night while I was drinking and kissing my girlfriend and it lasted me the whole night. Of course I love my red lippy so I got a red one call "Kiss Me You Fool". There are so many other colors and I am excited to try some of the other ones. There are two sides to this lipstick. The first one is the lipstick color. After applying it on you will have to wait for a while for it to dry to apply the second one. I made the mistake of immediately applying the second one which was a bad mistake. It will be a mess if you don't wait to apply the second one. The only bad thing is that it will take a while to come off. Especially if you don't wear it for a long time. Other then that, I adore this product and I want to get my hands on the other colors.

Nail polish- O.P.I Alpine Snow 


I LOVE nail polishes. This one is a white colored one from O.P.I. I've had this one for a couple of months now but I have been wearing this so much in the month of April. This white is a very opaque color. It does not look like you put hi liter on your nails. It makes my hand look very nice. I love it. Anybody who loves nail polish will definitely love this one.

Make-up Brush Holder & Bath and Body Works


I have been loving my make-up brush holder so I have included this as one of my favorites. I recently got this from IKEA. I didn't really have a space to put my brushes so when I saw this I knew I wanted it. The silver things that holds the brushes up are also from IKEA. It's kind of feels like rocks. There were other colors but I specifically chose the silver color because I loved the way it looked together. 


I've also included this as one of my favorite because I have just been obsessed with wallflowers. Especially this specific kind. It is the "Brazillian Blue Waters" and it smells so nice. I had the candle and it smelled so wonderful. I knew that the wallflowers would give me more scent so I got it instead. It makes my apartment smell so nice. I love that I can smell it when I walk in. It so hard to describe the smell. It smells tropical. That would be the closest I can describe it to. 
Well this wraps up my favorites for April. I still can't believe another month has gone by. Before I know it I will probably be posting another favorites!

Las Vegas-April 21, 2015 (Day 3) Our Last Day

It was officially our last day in Vegas. We were both so sad that we were going to say goodbye soon. But we didn't waste any time and walked around some more. Our vacation was not long enough but we made the best out of it. I can't wait to go back soon! 




We ate at Bubba Gump. It was Forrest Gump related restaurant. Our waitress asked us three questions relating to Forrest Gump and me and my girlfriend had a hard time answering them because its been so long since we watched that movie.



Shortly after our wonderful dinner we headed over to Drai's for a Yacht Club. Sadly it was freezing cold so we didn't swim. It was very tempting though. We got in this club for free as well because of the person we know. And of course we got complimentary drinks.


My baby and her AMF drink. 


How cool is this! Their towels are personalized with their names on it. We wanted to keep them so bad for souvenirs.


We were up on the roof!


We love the night life. There wasn't a lot of people on the strip anymore after we got out from the club. It was 2 am in the morning and we made an impulsive move and got our tattoos done. It is not completed yet. We didn't plan on the same word but it just so happened we both wanted the same word. We both have two different designs for our tattoos but we share the same word "Faith" I can't wait to finish it up and show you all the complete design. I am so excited!



This is the end of our trip! Thank you for following us on our trip to Vegas! I had a blast and I couldn't share every little thing we did in Vegas but I got to share the main events with you all!
