5 Beauty Products I Cant Live Without

I think we can all agree that growing up a girl has its perks, but it is also expensive! Makeup is part of that equation. Most girls love makeup and we all have our favorite products as our go-to when we are in a hurry. I’m going to share with you some of mine! 

Kai Body Lotion by Gaye Straza: I first found this product in a shop along the coast of California and I fell in love with it. It has a jasmine smell to it. Sadly, it is on the pricy side, but it is worth it, and it surprisingly last a long time! 

Roller Lash by Benefit: One word to describe this product: AMAZING! I highly recommend it. This mascara gives me the length I need and the fullness I want! You can find it in an Ulta near you or online. 

BADgal Liner Waterproof by Benefit: You can barely touch the lid of your eye and the product just glides on. I haven't found an eyeliner that I have ever been in love with until I tried the Benefit line. Its easy, breezy, and beautiful…oh wait thats covergirl (: 

MAC Global Glow Bronzer: If you have fair skin, I recommend this bronzer because it isn't too too heavy! It goes on light and easy! This is also a great product that I use for contouring! I recently discovered contouring and I will post a great informational link about how to contour below! 

MAC Viva Glam II Lipstick: I have had this lipstick for probably 4 years and I haven't really used any other color! It is a nude lipstick and it goes on super smooth. I love it because a nude lip goes great with whatever clothes you're wearing that day! 

Share below in the comments your go-to’s with me! xoxo

Why Visiting NYC Makes You Want To Live Nowhere Else But There

Washing the subway, cab rides, and Times Square out of my hair was bitter sweet. Yes taking a shower and feeling fresh was nice but leaving the city was heartbreaking.

Anything you want at any hour is at the tip of your finger tips. I mean, it is the city that never sleeps. While I was visiting I forgot that there were different places in the world other than The Big Apple!

You have the diners, drive-ins, and dives! There is endless amounts of local places to eat! You definitely won’t run out of food.

All the neighborhoods! They are all so unique and different! My favorite was Greenwich Village in the Meatpacking District. You have the hustle & bustle of the city but not too much of it. Just the right amount!

Shopping, Shopping, Shopping! Endless amount of it.

Central Park, Battery Park, Bryant Park, & many more. The small get away from the big city.

BROADWAY! When I was visiting I saw Phantom of the Opera. Seeing a Broadway show of Broadway is a must do.

All the people! You’ll get to meet people from all over the world!

NY pizza! We ate a Juliana's Pizza in Brooklyn. She started and owns the famous Grimaldi’s Pizza! Yummy!

Subway! We took the subway one day & the other days took a taxi! But if you think about taking the subway is a cheaper way of life! No car insurance, car payment, or gas! Plus you have no worries of people drinking and driving, just running late to work!

The views… Seeing the skyline every now and then will remind you why you started your journey here.

Here is a list of places I went to and enjoyed very much!

1. Juliana’s Pizza: 19 Old Fulton Street, Brooklyn, NY

2. Washington Square Park 

3. Chelsea Market (my favorite out of everything) 75 Ninth Ave 

4. Brooklyn Bridge (I suggest going to Brooklyn Bridge Park, getting an ice cream from the 

Factory & then walking it off by walking the bridge back to Manhattan 

5. 9/11 museum 

6. The New York Plaza Food Hall(go to the shoppes and go to the lower level, they have 

different little shops and restaurant to eat at. Quite cute! 

7. Sprinkles Cupcakes!  780 Lexington Ave.
