Necessities

So I wanted to be a cool blogger and make a post about my favorite beauty products.  There's too many to cover in the entire beauty umbrella, so I decided to just go with my favorite makeup products that I absolutely can't do without.

 

1. Image Day Spa night-time moisturizer.  I had really bad skin for a long time, then my sister told me about this awesome face wash from Image.  When I bought the face wash, the lady told me about this moisturizer you wear at night and it makes your skin SO soft and you wake up with glowing skin.

2. MAC Paint Pot.  LOVE this stuff.  You just put it on your eyelid before eyeshadow and it works as a primer.  Also, if you feel lazy it comes it different colors so if you get a shimmer one (Rubenesque is my favorite) you can just put that on and call it good.  They're $18 from MAC...kinda pricey but super worth it.

3. Mary Kay concealer.  I am 21 and already have bad circles under my eyes.  Slap some of this on after you put on your foundation and they disappear.  They're $9 and last for like a year.

4. Image Daily Defense Matte moisturizer.  This stuff is awesome.  It's for oily skin so it doesn't feel nasty and oily when you put it on.  Also it has SPF 30 so you don't smell like sunscreen all day :)

5. Kabooki brush.  I got mine from the Beauty Bar in Bountiful and it's Mirabella brand...I've had it for about a year and it's in great condition.  Love it.  I use mineral foundation and it puts it on super fast cause it's huge.

6. Naked Minerals foundation.  My sister and I took a makeup class at Bountiful High a couple years ago and this foundation was included in the kit.  It covers up ANYTHING on your face you don't want to see.  It comes in a darker shade and lighter.  I buy 1 of each and use both of them or either depending on the day and how tan I am :)  You can buy it online...they're about $25 each and last a long time.

Tuesday night at the Facer home

Hi, my name is Kelsey and I have an awesome husband.  

I saw this "deep pore cleanser" thing on Pinterest and wanted to put it to the test. 

(1 T. unflavored gelatin + 1 T. milk microwaved for 10 sec. and smeared all over your face...dried for about 20 minutes then painfully peeled off) 

I had been talking about it for a while and the other night I mentioned to Austin I was going to do it later that night...I was doing my homework and the next thing I know he walks out of the bathroom like this:

I was dying.

He said that he had this Avon lady in one of the wards on his mission and he would always buy stuff from her to help her out.  So then I decided to make mine and put it on....

We sat there not able to talk to each other or laugh at Friends because of our stiff faces for about 20 minutes.

We obviously live a really exciting life :)

P.S. My mask didn't work as well as Pinterest said it would....bummer.

The Vow

Remember when this movie came out and everyone and their dog had something to say about it?  Well it took me a while to get to the theater to see it, but when I finally did I loved it.  Best part of the show:

"I vow to help you love life, to always hold you with tenderness, and to have the patience that love demands. To speak when words are needed, and to share the silence when they’re not. To agree to disagree on red velvet cake, and to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home.

I vow to fiercely love you in all your forms, now and forever. I promise to never forget that this is a once in a lifetime love. I vow to love you, and no matter what challenges might carry us apart, we will always find a way back to each other."

So cute.
