Think Pink

I teamed up with Glossier for their #GlossierPink Pinterest board. Since Autumn is upon us I thought I would share some of my favorite pink beauty products.

I am not a pinky pink kind of girl I like more mauvy pink tones for summer. So here are my top picks.

For the past 5 months I have been loving the balmdotcom from Glossier. I apply this to my lips before I apply any makeup so my lips are nice and hydrated. As you know from this post & this post I am a bit of a lip balm/chap stick connoisseur junkie. I Do Not like my lips to feel the slightest bit dry and this stuff is awesome and the coconut one smells like German Chocolate Cake..YUM!! The best part about this product is it is multipurpose so you can use it on any part of your body that is dry or rough like your nails/cuticles so it’s perfect to carry in your purse.

I think I own all of the Real Techniques original collection but I mainly reach for my pink brushes. They are so affordable and are so super soft. I also am starting to really like the beauty blender, but I still love the real techniques miracle complexion sponge but since it ain’t pink well…. LOL

From Left to Right: Beauty Blender, Blush brush, Setting brush, Stippling brush, Retractable lip brush.

All the brushes below I have received in my ipsy bag and wouldn't ya know ipsy comes in it’s signature pink bag and it is definitely a beauty fave of mine. Who doesn’t love trying new products. Am I right ladies?

I digress..brushes right. So these are my favorite of favorites eye brushes (with a blush/highlight brush thrown inWinking smile). Like not just because of this post and their pink these are what I reach for on a daily basis. They are all soft and do exactly what they are supposed too with no fuss.

From Left to Right: slmissglam blush brush (I use for highlighter), Luxie 205 tapered blending brush, Royal & Langnickel medium eye shader brush, Elizabeth Mott all over shadow brush, Luxie 215 small angle brush.

Now for the makeup.

I reach for my Stila the natural palette the most during the summer cause it’s easy. It has everything you need for an eye look.

It has all the mauvy pinks that I love and an awesome highlighter. I must admit the bronzer in this palette is not my fave but it definitely can be used in a pinch if this is the only palette you have on hand. Only drawback to this palette is it has been discontinued so if you see it in a Nordstrom Rack like I did grab them all. Winking smileI did find a lot of these shades are comparable to some in the Lorac Pro as well.

Two top blushes for summer are always dandelion and bella bamba from Benefit. They are the perfect pinks and most of the time I use them both. These blush palettes like this are usually released during the holidays so if you see them at Ulta grab one you won’t be disappointed.IMG_5235

Last but not least in the makeup department is lippies and OMG I have way too many pinky nude, pinky mauves and pinky pinks glosses. During the summer I reach for something that is sheer and quick so I have way more glosses then I do pink lipsticks.

My favorites at the moment are Be A Bombshell’s pout potion in Secret mixed with Model Co lip lacquer in Morocco. They are both nudey pinks but Morocco is slightly warmer and I just like how they look together.

I also love my Buxom lip polishes, creams & glosses. Can you tell which one I love the most. LOL Dolly is my fave cause of the mauvy pink factor that I love so much but Erin (on the left) & Berry Blast (on the right) are both gorgeous pinks as well.
