Eyebrows have been a very important part of the makeup scene for years now, but recently they have become one of the biggest trends in the beauty community. In fact, many will say they feel naked without their brows done. Particularly, the ‘brows on fleek’ trend has taken the world by storm. ‘Brows on fleek’, if you don’t already know, refers to a very filled in architectural brow. This usually has very sharp, clean edges – especially on the tail of the brow. This is especially great for those who have very sparse or minimal brow hairs. This look especially leaked its way into the everyday world through beauty gurus and makeup enthusiasts on Youtube and Instagram.
Month: March 2017
Birchbox – February 2017
Welcome to February’s Birchbox! Right off the bat, I have to say that I really love this month’s box, it’s super cute and Valentines Day themed! But, what matters is what’s inside, so let’s get into it!
I’m going to start with the product I was most excited about, which is the Dr. Brandt Microdermabrasion Skin Exfoliant. I really like this, it makes your skin baby soft after using it. That being said, I don’t know if I would ever pay the $79 for the full product (eesh!). The next thing I got was a BioRepublic Skincare Cucumber Breeze Soothing Fiber Mask. This is essentially your basic sheet mask, it felt nice and cooling while on but I don’t know if it really did a whole lot.
Ipsy Bag – February 2017
Welcome to February’s Ipsy bag! Unlike some of my other beauty subscriptions this month, this one is very un-Valentines Day looking, which I’m not sure I’m happy or mad about. But, that’s neither here nor there. What matters is the products, so let’s get into it!
The first thing that immediately stood out to me, partly because it didn’t actually fit in the makeup bag, was this Luxie Beauty 514 blush brush. This brush is so pretty, it’s a light pink handle with rose gold. It’s also super soft and great for applying blush or bronzer without getting too heavy handed. Speaking of bronzer, I also got the Elizabeth Mott Whatup Beaches matte bronzer. First of all, I love the name. Second of all, how am I supposed to actually dip a brush into this microscopic bronzer?? Like, literally its the size of my thumb nail.
Sephora Play! – February 2017
This is my first Sephora Play! subscription bag, and I’m super excited!! As you might expect, the bag for February is very sexy and sultry looking…well as much as a bag can be. I do like the bag idea, instead of a box, because at least you can repurpose it in a more practical way. I also have to say, that already the Sephora Play! subscription has a lot more brands and products that I have heard of and have wanted to try than some of the other beauty subscriptions. So let’s discuss what we got!
