Makeup Favorites of 2013!
I rarely ever post about my monthly favorites since I feel like I would be repeating the same products over and over again, with that said I wanted to share my staple beauty favorites that I absolutely loved in 2013! Most of these have popped up in some of my favorites last year as well.

| 2013 Favorites |
When I look over 2013 and my makeup stash, I feel I used a lot more lip products and I kept going back to the same lip color over and over again. For 2014 I really want it to be the year of experimenting with eye makeup, let's see how that works out!

| Cheek Favorites |
Cheeks (I don’t think I’ll ever get over peach blushes)
Color Studio Pro Blush in Natural Glow [review] - I would say this is
the blush that I really fell in love with since the start of the year. It’s the
perfect natural looking blush to wear without giving you an excessively bright
cheek. It’s wearable for daytime and evening.
Catrice Blush Duo in Peach Sorbet - Loved this blush for
daily wear. It looks very bright and livens up my complexion and goes well with
nude and light pink lipstick. I really like the duo shades since I use the
lighter as a highlight shade.
Wet n Wild Color Icon Blush in Mellow Wine - Where have you
been all my life!?! The newest dusty peach blush in my stash that wears all day
without fail. It looks so beautiful on the skin, easy to blend out. It’s just
effortless!

| Eye Favorites |
Eye Makeup
Wet n Wild Color Icon Eyeshadows in Comfort Zone [review] – I definitely
used more of the brown side of this palette, my favorites are the Eyelid and
Crease shades. It just looks lovely with any makeup look.
Catrice Maximum Resist Volume Mascara – I never got around
to reviewing this one since I’ve run out of it. This gave my lashes such volume
and curl all day without flaking. It wasn’t the most perfect mascara since it made my lashes stick together sometimes but it was a good one to use this
year.
Essence Gel Liner in Midnight in Paris [review] – This was my
repurchase this year and I will keep going back to it. It’s easy to apply and doesn’t
smudge on my waterline, love it!
Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bold Gold [review] – Paired with any bronze makeup look, I used this as a base and it really makes metallic eyeshadows pop. Wears all day without fail.

Foundation
Catrice Infinite Matte Foundation in 030 Apricot Beige – A very
lightweight foundation that wore really well in the evening for a light
coverage. I’m not huge on full coverage foundations but this one I really liked
for the natural finish.
Garneir Oily/combo BB cream in Light – I loved this BB cream
formula, it’s the most matte BB cream I’ve tried and I really like how it
brightens up my complexion during the daytime.
Pressed Powder
Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in 050 Silky Beige – I hopped
on board the Stay Matte train since this is so raved about, I love how it feels
on the skin with application. I got this in a slightly darker shade to wear on
top of the Garneir BB cream, the perfect pair for me.
Luscious Flawless Finish Powder Foundation in 0.5 Warm Ivory [review] – Every time I needed a completely mattifying finish, this powder was there for
me. I wore this on my t-zone throughout the Summer months and it outlasted
every other powder I have to keep my t-zone shine free.
Highlight
ELF Studio bronzer in Golden [review] – Another recent purchase that I
felt was missing in my makeup stash all along, love this for an everyday
highlight but can also be intensified for nighttime.
Concealer
Hard Candy Glamoflauge in Tan – I’ve tried sooo many
concealers this year, I can think of at least 4 off the top of my head and none
of them I truly fell in love with then with this baby. It’s the perfect shade
with the best coverage and wears nicely all day.

| Lip Favorites |
Lip Balm
MUA Love Hearts in Hot Lips - I really like the texture of this compared to
any other lip balm. It has a sweet vanilla scent and really keeps my lips
hydrated.
Maybelline Baby Lips in Pink Punch - I love the scent of
this one! I got this in my secret blogger swap from the lovely Sara Hassan. I
love wearing this on top of any lipstick to hydrate my lips.
Lipsticks
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balmstain in Honey [review] - My everyday too lazy to wear makeup lipcolor
Rimmel London Kate Moss in Shade 05 [review] - The best bright pink lipstick that perked up my makeup
Luscious Signature Lipstick in Coral Pink [review] - My favorite long wearing every
Luscious Super Moisturizing Lipstick in Dusty Pink [review] - This is one of those lipsticks I never wear at the start of my day but mid-day to hydrate them a bit
Lip Gloss
Luscious Plumping Lip gloss in Berry Smoothie - The only lipgloss I really wear on its own, it feels smooth an
