My Current Go-To Palette's!

Who doesn't love a good eye shadow palette, better yet one that you could use with just about any look? Ever since I came across the Makeup Forever Pro Artist Palette #1 and the Buxom Dolly's Wild Side I have been in love. Both palette's are very pigmented and very universal. Since I have hazel eyes and I typically like to wear my everyday makeup more on the natural side I tend to grab the MUFE palette first. Depending on what I am wearing or if I am just simply bored I will add in a pop of purple from the Buxom palette as well. So please take a look at these beautiful colors and comment down below your favorite color as well as your favorite palette you have been loving and think I should try out.

Ipsy Glam bag: October 2015 Unboxing

Hello beauties! So because of my lack of patience I wanted to rip my packaging open and try out my new goodies I have been waiting all month for. I enjoy getting monthly subscriptions, its like Christmas for only $10! If you have not subscribed yet, I highly encourage you to do so(: Let's get on to the reveal shall we?

Peter Lamas- Exfoliating Pumpkin Facial Scrub

It says that it is made for all skin types, deep cleanses, exfoliates and brightens skin.

Yummmm! Excited to try this out, I LOVE anything Pumpkin related.

It Cosmetics- Hello Lash Mascara

Claims that it is a 5-in-1 Clinically Proven mascara that increases Length and Volume.

My lashes are needing a little love and I honestly hope this works out for me. I will let you all know what I think about it.

Eva.Nye- Therapy Session Hair Mask

Made with Keravis protein, Argan oil, this claims to deeply condition the hair and strengthen. 

Interested in giving this a try, I am always up for trying new hair masks. I am a hair junkie, I guess the given industry I am in has made me that way.

Emite Make Up- Tweezers

I have never heard of this brand before, how did Ipsy know I was in need of new Tweezers?

Plus they are pink and look just like tweezerman.. hmmm we might have a possible dupe on our hands.

The Balm- Meet Matt(e) Hughes long lasting liquid lipstick

I had to swatch this and give it a try because I have been obsessed with liquid lipsticks lately. This looks like a cross between Lolita and love sick by Kat Von D. Super excited to wear this to work and put this to the ultimate test. Smells like peppermint which I LOVE, hopefully I wont be able to lick it off lol.

Well everyone that concludes the unboxing of my October 2015 Ipsy Glam bag, I hope you all enjoyed. If you receive Ipsy bags as well I would love to know what you got in yours, leave a comment down below. Have a wonderful day everyone! XOXO Sedona

K Beauty! The New Innovative Trend of 2015

What is 'K Beauty' might you ask? K beauty stands for Korean Beauty. The next big thing and Global buzz of 2015. Korean beauty has been featured at popular retailers such as Sephora as well as known magazine publishers. It is quite simple; look for the products that are gentle, made with natural ingredients and that are innovative. The look to achieve is Porcelain looking skin, with a natural dewy finish. In our heads FLAWLESS is what we see. So don't be afraid to slap on that oil or bazaar products you would have never thought of using before.It has to be working right?

With our busy lives we tend to neglect our skin and put it last. Sometimes we fail to wash off our makeup or we fail to protect with SPF and most importantly we forget to moisturize. Our skin is indeed the largest living organ on our body, it is also the first to come in contact with any surface and any form of lighting. This slowly ages our skin and diminishes that flawless look we want to keep forever. So we wonder how can we change our skin over night? Well the answer is you will notice a difference instantly and sometimes overnight. But the complete change will take time, the natural cell turn over for young skin is 28-30 days versus older skin which is almost double that. It does take time, but the more TIME you invest the better results. Korean Beauty consists of a multi step facial, this will give you the deepest cleanse and the best results.

Step 1: Remove all makeup! Oil cleansers are a great first start. This will remove all the dirt, makeup as well as oil.

Step 2: Exfoliate. This step is optional for daily use and should be done at least 1-2 a week.

Step 3: Cleanse the skin. This will remove all the left over debris left on the face, during this step I like to use my clarisonic to really give me that deep pore cleanse.

Step 4: Use a Toner or Essence. This will help balance the natural pH of the skin, smooth and moisturize while removing oil.

Step 5:  Sheet masks or Mud masks. This will help moisturize and also work as an Essence for the face.

Step 6: Serum. Each serum will help do different things, but majority of them will help lift, brighten and tighten.

Step 7: Eye Cream & Sleeping mask. This will help moisturize and replenish the skin as well as the under eyes while you sleep.

Step 8: Apply SPF. This step is optional before bed, but is a must in the morning!!!
