Makeup Routine October 2016

I recently switched a few makeup products and wanted to share with you all my makeup routine as of October 2016! Since I have posted makeup routines before but never posted which makeup brushes I use, I also wanted to incorporate that as well into this post. So, here is my makeup routine as of October 2016!

Brushes:
  • Foundation brushes: BareMinerals Precision Face brush and Tarte Powder Player Bamboo Pressed Powder brush
  • Foundation/finishing powder brush: Bareminerals Full Flawless Face brush
  • Bronzer brush: Sephora brand Multitasker Complexion bronzer brush
  • Concealer brush: Sephora brand Perfecting Concealer concealer brush
Makeup Products:
  • BareMinerals Original Foundation in shade golden medium - I switched to this foundation recently over the summer, and I love it. One light layer of this foundation provides great coverage, and stays on for more than 12 hours a day. It also provides SPF 15, which is great, as it provides me with sun protection.
  • Hoola Benefit Cosmetics Bronzing Powder - This bronzing powder is great! It is very pigmented so you only need to use a small amount, but it looks fantastic. I can never go without applying this bronzer when I do my makeup!
  • Laura Mercier Matte Radiance Baked Powder Bronzer in shade 03 - I just started using this bronzer since I got a Laura Mercier gift pack and it was in there, and it is a great bronzer! The bronzer has a beautiful pattern on it, and is very light and not super heavy! I switch between this bronzing powder and the Benefit one every so often, but I can't stop using this one as well!
  • BareMinerals Original Mineral Veil - I have been using this finishing powder for over a year, and I am still as in love with it than when I started using it. It is super light, keeps my makeup set for over 12 hours, and keeps me from becoming super oily, which is amazing! This finishing powder also provides SPF 25 sun protection as well.
  • Benefit Cosmetics Boiing Industrial Strength Concealer in shade 01 - This concealer is amazing; I have tried other concealers that didn't stay on very well, but this one is amazing. There is a reason why it is called the Industrial Strength Concealer. This Boiing concealer stays on my face all day and covers up my imperfections perfectly!!

Getting Through Finals Week

As winter break is approaching and finals week is coming up, many students are stressed about how to study in order to perform successfully on their tests. Here are some tips on how to be calm, well rested, and ready for finals week. 1. Use Quizlet  - I started using Quizlet my junior year of high school, and I have used it ever since. I am now a freshman in college and I still use Quizlet for my classes. Quizlet is amazing; if you have a lot of terms you need to memorize, Quizlet is the perfect online website that will help you study those terms. Once you write in the terms and their definitions, there are a variety of options you can choose in order to study the terms, including a test, flashcards, etc. 2. Get lots of rest - Don't stay out late when you know you have a final the next day. Getting a lot of rest is beneficial if you want to perform well on a test. It does sound lame to go to sleep really early, but if you do so, your body will thank you. By going to sleep early...

Spicy Veggie Bean Chili

Since moving from my old house with a tiny, cramped kitchen to my new house with a large, open kitchen with an island, I have been meal prepping, cooking, and baking a lot more. With this, I have been keen to try new recipes! I do eat meat, but most of the time I tend to cook vegetarian and vegan meals. This vegetarian chili recipe was one that I came across while browsing for a good, hearty chili recipe, and it is so delicious I had to share it with all of you. I did not come up with this recipe myself. The lovely Shannon, with her blog "The Glowing Fridge," posted this recipe. Her website is amazing, and I highly recommend you check it out. (Also, if you are interested in more plant based recipes, take a look at Shannon's website here: https://www.theglowingfridge.com ) Ingredients: 1/3 cup vegetable broth (or 1 tbsp olive oil) - for sautéing 1 onion, diced 1/4 of a finely diced jalapeño (optional) 3 minced cloves of garlic 1 bell pepper of any color, diced 1 ...
