Kylie Lipkit: I'll admit, I was not that interested in Kylie's lip kits at first because I didn't think they could be *that* great. But eventually I caved in and bought two lip kits, and now I see what all the hype is about!

'Candy K' is definitely my favorite shade. These are great for occasions where you will be taking lots of photos because they really make your lips pop. And you won't have to worry about reapplying because these suckers last all day. My only suggestion is to keep your lips exfoliated and moisturized because, as with any matte lip product, it can cause a drying effect.

Each lip kit comes with a lip liner and a liquid matte lipstick. And I can't lie, I'm a sucker for cool packaging.

Anastasia Brow Studio: I have a serious love for Anastasia. This company is the end-all, be-all of eyebrow products. I mean, Anastasia herself does Kim K's eyebrows - that's how you know you're big time! I just recently purchased this brow kit during the big Nordstrom sale that all of us bloggers freak out over ;) So far, I'm loving it.  It comes with a double-sided brush: one side is for applying the "dip brow pomade" product, and the other side is a spooly to comb out your brows. The dipbrow pomade is made to be waterproof and smudge-proof; it works great on oily skin and in humidity! And the silver tube is a brow gel that holds your brows in place all day long.

Available here: Nordstrom sold out of this particular set, but they have a 5-piece set here. You can also purchase the pomade individually here (I have the shade 'dark brown'), the brush here, and the brow gel here.





Living Proof No Frizz Styling Cream: I live in Louisiana, where it is 300% humidity at all times... which is a nightmare for girls like me with naturally wavy/frizzy hair! But this product by Living Proof really helps me to combat the frizz. I apply it after I shower when my hair is still wet (mainly at the ends) and blow-dry hair as normal.

Available here: Sephora


Anastasia Contour Kit: Yet another Anastasia product :) If you have been following the blog for a while, you may remember first seeing this contour kit in our Christmas Haul Post. It is now August and look how much product I still have left! I really do love and recommend this product. I mix together the two outter brown colors to contour my cheekbones, forehead, nose, and jaw line. I use the top middle color (slightly yellowish) to set my under eye concealer. And I use the top right color to highlight the inner corners of my eyes and the bridge of my nose.

Available here: Sephora (I use the shade 'light to medium'). I apply it with this brush by Kat Von D.
