New video series! Woo! One of my favorite things to do is to pick out beauty products for my friends and family, fact. After a bit of thinking, I figured, hey, why not film me in action! Laugh if you will, but my girl Kristen and I had a majorly fun time filming at my friend Sal’s house (hence, the Louise cameo).
To say that I’m a mascara hoarder would be an understatement. I’m too afraid to actually go into my beauty closet and COUNT all of the mascara that I’ve hoarded over the years because, yeah, it might be a little bit scary. In this BATTLE OF video, I compare two similar mascaras from Benefit and Tarte to see which one works best for me. Check it out.
I’m heading to New York this morning (yay!) for my cousin’s wedding…annnnd, I’m super excited. I haven’t been back since Christmas and good god, I really miss my nephew (and sure, the rest of my family too). Since I’ve been slowly packing, and I do mean SLOWLY, I figured that I’d make a quick video on my beauty product “to-go bag” for travel. I keep this baby packed and ready to leave at a moment’s notice. Let me know what you think!
Here’s a weird fact: I really only started wearing makeup toward the end of college. Ok, with the exception that I did, occasionally wear the super classy white eyeliner on my eyelids during high school. Oh yeah, I did that. So sure…now that I actually DO have to wear makeup, my routine is usually under five minutes…mostly because I’m lazy and always running late. In this video, I show you my not-so-secret under five minute routine (FOUR minutes, to be exact!) that will give you the bare minimum as far as coverage, and not looking like a beast.
It’s time for May Favorites! Truthfully, I still have a LOT to learn about making YouTube videos, but I genuinely do enjoy making my monthly favorites videos. Ha, my manager would be so proud! It’s not that I’m uncomfortable in front of the camera (quite the opposite, actually), but I have absolutely no eye for editing and/or filming. So there’s that. I’d much rather be in my pajamas, hair in pony tail, zit cream on face, writing a blog post. Truth. With that said, I digress, and present to you…my favorite things for May!
