CoverGirl Ready Set Gorgeous Review + GRWM & pics from #1DOrlando







 Hey, Guys! So on My Youtube Channel today, I posted a Get Ready With Me Video where I just prepped myself with minimal Makeup for a pretty chill day as well as a First Impressions on the CoverGirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation.
So Tonight, I'm just going to finish off by telling you all how the Foundation held up and what my final thoughts are.

So, When I first applied it, it felt very light weight and it was pretty light coverage but definitely built up to medium coverage when I applied a second layer and that manages to cover up my blemishes flawlessly without making them look cakey or clinging to my dry spots.

My skin is combination, leaning more towards Dry but I do have an Oily T-zone and I was very surprised to find that such a light foundation didn't make me look oily at all.

This color blended in seamlessly into my skin, and if you're interested in this foundation I'm pretty sure You'll find a shade because they do have a pretty good selection.

I applied the Foundation around 2:30 and it is now around 10:30 so it's been a good eight hours and it still doesn't feel like I'm wearing anything but I am noticing some oil starting to peek through the surface. (Do Keep in Mind that I didn't apply any setting powder)

All in all I am very impressed with this foundation and I look forward to using it in the future. You can't go wrong with the price, it ranges from $7-8 which is incredible!

Here is the Video :)

I also wanted to include some Pics from my Weekend at Universal Orlando for One Direction's Album Release I talked about it more in depth in the video but basically it was tragic to say the least but it all paid off when I saw their beautiful faces and heard their angelic voices.



 (Yes, I saw Josh Devine and it was a very beautiful moment in my life)

Nail and Lip Combo for Every Woman | Elizabeth Martinez



Hello, Beauties!
-Trying to find the shade that best suits us can sometimes be a challenge therefor while pondering on the idea of which shade best suits ME I came to the conclusion that there is typically three types of women.

1) The " I'm all about the Business" woman
2) The Rebel
and 
3) The Plain Jane

No, you don't have to be just one. 
In fact, I think that I personally dive into each of these categories every once in a while.

To put it in perspective:
1) The "I'm all about that Business" woman doesn't want to be too overdone so she'll settle for a berry toned products on her lips and cheeks while utilizing pales and pastels on her nails. This says, "I have very important papers to sign on an everyday basis so my nails need to be easy to keep up with."

2) The Rebel is the woman every girl wishes to be. She wears dark lips and dark nails year round. No explanations. She does what she wants and she's not afraid to show her wild side.

3) Plain Jane. She would want her intro to be just like that. Don't think she's boring, she knows exactly what shes doing. By matching her lips precisely to the color of her nude nails, good ol' Plain Jane is telling the world that shes preparing to conquer it. One sleek move at a time.

Fixer-Uppers

 
 
 
 

We've all had those moments where we feel like one little thing is going to ruin our entire day and at times it can get a little overwhelming. Yes, I understand that there are real problems out there in the world but what about us?
What about the moments when every aspect of our make up is so flawless that we're almost positive we'll get 100+ likes on Instagram, but right before we show our excitement we notice that our lips look like they haven't felt water since last year?
Or when we have a really important event that we need to get to, which we've been preparing for all week but then suddenly the night before, we can feel a crater forming on our foreheads?

This is life, and this stuff happens which is why it's important to try out different products and find the ones that work for YOU!

Once You've found your life saving, 'Fixer-Uppers' as I like to call them, Your life will be so much more simple! In other words, You won't be panicking, searching for home remedies on Youtube.

Products that help me and I believe might help you also are Petroleum Jelly (Vaseline), Sleep Pillow Mist by Bath and Body Works, Advantage Daily Soothing Acne Wash by Clean and Clear, and Nail Envy by OPI.

Petroleum Jelly is awesome for many reasons but all have one thing in common: Moisturizing. My primary uses for this product is to take away chapped lips and heal excessively dry legs especially during the cooler months. Apply this twice daily to your lips and in just one day your lips will look and feel very different.

Sleep Spray is my secret weapon for the nights when my head hits the pillow and I just know it's not going to be easy to get me to fall asleep. I spray a few times on all of my pillows and my sheets and in a few minutes I feel relaxed and comforted. Not sure what the science is behind it, but it works.

The Acne Wash by Clean and Clear was an accidental discovery. I purchased it for someone else but ran out of my own face wash before I could give it to them and it truly amazed me. I don't even use this as an actual face wash, it's more of an 'On the spot' treatment. If I have sudden breakouts caused by hormones or stress, I will apply this evenly all over my face and go to sleep with it. The next morning almost all of my blemishes would have disappeared.

And lastly, there is nothing uglier than uneven nails, so Nail Envy by OPI has allowed me to have strong and beautiful nails, without the fear of having one break off.

I hope these tips helped you!
