A Vlog: Fav Beauty Products

                                         

 
Today I’m linking up with Momfessionals and sharing my favorite makeup products! I haven’t filmed a vlog (video blog) in a while, so I thought this would be a fun way to connect with my newer readers. I can’t foresee doing another makeup/beauty vlog, so here’s my one casual shot at it. Hope you enjoy it! 

Eyes – Starts at 1:14

Shadow Primer:  | Eyeshadow:  | Eyeliner: Maybelline New York Unstoppable Onyx (for waterline) / – color “Factory” (to blend under waterline) / Revlon ColorStay Liquid Liner (top lid) | Eyeliner smudge brush: Sonia Kashuk Smudge Brush | Brow Highlighter: bareMinerals eye color “Soul” | Mascara: Maybelline New York Colossal Cat Eyes Waterproof Mascara

Face – Starts at 4:21

Foundation: Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse (Nude Beige Light) | Powder: Mary Kay Mineral Powder (Beige 0.5) | Under Eye & Blemish Concealer: Merle Norman Dual Action Concealer | Contouring: NYX CW 07 (dark) & CW 02 (light) | Blush: Nars Orgasm | Bronzer:

Lips – Starts at 8:35

Liner: MAC Lip Pencil Soar Liner | Lipstick: | Lipgloss: NYX Glam Gloss “Glitter Dreams”  | Lipstick + Lipgloss mixed: Maybelline Super Stay 10 Stain Gloss (Refreshing Red) + Revlon Pink Whisper


As promised in the video, here’s a picture of what my face looks like when I have way too many of the previously mentioned products loaded up on my face. 😉 Maybe great for a formal function, but that’s about it!

PS: I’m guest posting today over at Jen’s blog What You Make It for her new series called “Coffee with New Moms”. I’m talking about my rollercoaster of emotions after finding out I was pregnant and the struggle of adjusting to my new normal.

Hi! I’m Erica, and I absolutely adore sharing my life on this website with you! I come here almost daily to blab about all of the things related to being a regular wife and mother in today’s ever-evolving society. I share about our new home, what’s on our kitchen table, what we’re hanging in our closets, where we’re traveling to next, my crazy 5 a.m. work outs, how I make time for girlfriends, our faith, and much more. We always have a lot of balls in the air and somewhat thrive on the chaos. I believe in the power of story-telling as a form of inspiration and entertainment, so I’m here to do both! I was born and raised in north Alabama and recently re-planted roots here again after my husband transitioned out of the Army (he is now in the Reserve and it’s going so well!) I’m a super proud mom to three little girls (ages 7, 4, and 1) who seem to be the stars of the show around here (for good reason – they’re pretty great!) I’m so glad you found me and are here reading! I hope we can get to know each other here on the blog as well as Facebook and/or Instagram. xoxo
