Skincare
Still hands down THE BEST for stubborn below the surface blemishes. An easy 10 min mask I use once a week at night. I am almost half way on this product.
AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
I love this right after the BHA AHA mask. This is also perfect on its own. Loved it so much that it is now an empty.
Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 (with Ceramides)
I am still so in love with this body scrub. My skin has been a bit dry lately so that moisturizing factor has been working so well for me this month.
Beloved Cherry blossom & tea rose body scrub
My perfect pair with the Beloved Scrub. I am almost half way on this product, so very exciting after so many months of loving it.
Bath & Body Works A Thousand Wishes Shower Gel
This is such a versatile product that I am still loving. I have used it as a mask so many nights to get rid of any bumps I had.

I STILL LOOOOOOVEEE this, so glass skin on a budget for the colder winter months. I am so close to being fully done with it and I cannot stop talking about this and how good it is.
TIRTIR Milk Skin Rice Toner
This and the Tirtir Toner is still my fave skincare routine. I am now almost done with both of these products because I use it so much.
Lipikar Body Lotion for Normal to Dry Skin
Makeup
This is my ride or die and has been for so many years. I have gone through multiple of these and it has never failed me. Every powder I try is unknowingly compared to this because of how much I stand by this product.
Maybelline Fit Me® Matte + Poreless Powder
This was a product I discovered in 2024, and fell in love with the formulation so much. This has such a lightweight and serum like formula. This months fave / favorite shade in the entire line is “thx”.
Shop Blush | Cream, Liquid & Powder Cheek Color
These have been a fave since 2023, I love the shade “52 Self Made”, the perfect rosy blush that is perfect on its own or for a blush combo
Sephora Collection Blush
This feels like a highend luxury powder blush without the highend luxury price. Leaves a very pretty look to the skin. This months fave is “Oh Baby Pink”.
Powder Blush
This was a summer fave, and has continued on to being a makeup fave. I use this so much and have made pan in it. A 2025 Favorite and the best part its less than $10."I love the shade “Light”.
Cream Bronzer
If you have never tried a nude liner for cleaning up the brows, you are completely missing out on the most easiest, most natural looking, and affordable way to clean up the brows. This formula does not work for my watery eyes, but for the brows. You ...
Essence Stay & Play Gel Eyeliner
This was a love to hate to love again. I have realized that this is perfect for the colder winter months because of how moisturizing this is. For those with dry skin you would absolutely love this. Those with oily skin like me will find this works so...
FOUNDATION stick
This is such a forgettable product, but I decided that I would pick it up for the last month of 2025 and try to pan it, or at least use it to the most I can, and I am so glad I did. This is such a creamy formula and it glides on the eye so well with ...
L.A Girl Shockwave Eyeliner Pencil
This has been a favorite for such a long time. Since this is my second bottle I have it in a lighter shade than last time. This worked perfectly for my darker foundations, or my foundations that oxidize. This paired with the essence foundation stick ...
Elf Hydrating Camo Concealer
I tested this bronzer out last month, and after that I really fell in love with it that I could not put it down. It is the perfect tone of neutral warm leaning that is what I use for many of my looks I created this month. I have made sunch a dent in ...
Benefit Hoola Matte Bronzer
This was a product I tried back in spring of 2025 and I immediately fell in love with it. This is such a perfect product for those who have two tone lips and need a base lip. You apply this first, leave on for at least 3 mins to settle, wipe away, an...
Stuck On You PH Lip Stain
I still stand on how these are like a high end formula. They are not too thick, not gloopy or gunky at all. I am still loving the shade "09 Shadow Rose". I forgot about this product since its last mention in fly faves, but after I picked it up again ...
Essence - 09 Shadow Rose Extreme Shine Volume Lipgloss
This is up there with my Maybelline fit me pressed powder. It's affordable, great shade range, blurs the skin, and is not stuffy on the skin. My only issue is how little product this has because I always run through these. This is a repurchase produc...
Can't Stop Won't Stop Mattifying Pressed Powder
Kaja is way too underrated for my liking and they need to not be. I picked these up a while ago and have been loving them ever since then. They work perfectly on its own and also work well as base lips underneath my lip combos. They have a nice gloss...
Kaja Jelly Charm | Glazed Lip & Blush Keychain Stain
Italia is always making the best lip products. These liners are so nice and creamy and glide on the lips so well. They have a great lasting power and the shade range alongside the price can not be matched. This month I loved the shade "Light Brown"
Italia Deluxe Ultra Fine Lip Liner Pencil 1040 Brown
About face oh how I love these lipliners, these have been in my favorites for so many months. This months faves are "Little Little" , and "Smoked". The two shades were perfect pairings with the kaja lip glaze tints. So for those needing a new lip com...
Matte Fix Lip Pencil
This is such an amazing formula and it is literally $2. I have so many of these shades. It is creamy, affordable, and has a good lasting time. This months fave was "Plum and Get It". The perfect liner for my mauve lip combos.
Cream Glide Lip Liner
This is in my project pan, but ever since I picked it up it is such a good product. I do not think they make this anymore, so it is so unfortunate for me. This is such a good dark brown liner that works with certain eye looks, especially baby pinks a...
Eyeliner Pen
Oh Profusion how I love you. This has been a fave for a while, but it has been forgotten about so I picked it up and OMG I do see how important a base is for a shadow. My eyeshadows went on so smoothly. This product is affordable, creamy, blendable, ...
Profusion Pigment Base Eyeshadow Primer | White
This is so underrated from Milani. It is an older product but the formula stands the test of time. It sits on the skin so nicely and blends beautifully. The shade range has changed since its first launch, but if we hype this up the way it needs to be...
Rose Powder Blush
I am still loving my “Camelia”. The perfect cream base for my mauve blush combos, which is all I have been wearing this month.
Cream Blush Refillable Cheek & Lip Color
I have been loving this since I bought this during the spring VIB sale. It is the perfect tone for my complexion. Not to grey, but not to warm. This is the perfect formula for my oily skin. So if you're looking for a powder contour for the nose and f...
SEPHORA COLLECTION Colorful Contour Matte Powder 02 Light
This is a product I have been trying to get rid of for such a long time. It only has 3 shades so I use it when I do mauve looks. This made me realize eye base is very important. I have never had an experience like this shadow trio + the profusion pig...
Smashbox Sepia Photo Op Eye Shadow Trio Product Info
Tools
This is one of the BEST brushes I have ever tried. It is so versatile. It is the right amount of dense and flimsy. It picks up all of my bronzer formulas so well. The perfect size for my face. The quality is soooo good I want to repurchase so I have ...
Morphe M241 Angled Powder Bronzer Brush
I get the higher priced powder puffs. This one is super soft and flexible. I loved this one specifically for loose powders. It picked the perfect amount of product. I love the smaller versions of these for my purses as a touch up for long days.
Magic Perfectors Powder Puff
This brush set is one of my absolute favorites from Profusion. This month I loved the Face brush and I use it as a cream contour brush. It is the perfect amount of density that all my creams go smoothly on top of all my scars. This is also so versati...
Profusion It’s a Vibe Brush Set
The buffing brush in this set is the perfect for not only liquid foundations, but also powder bronzer and contour. I loved this for powder bronzer formulas that I have never tried before. One of the best versatile brushes in my collection.
Real Techniques Makeup Brush Set
Hair
This has been in my bathroom for such a long time. I do have an oily scalp, but during the colder dryer months, this is perfect for moisturizing the scalp and hair ends. It is so affordable, yet leaves my hair soft and shiny and moisturized.

Fragrance
This is one of my most reached fragrances in my collection. I love it so much, I also have this in its matching lotion. Its a deeper floral, not to immature, but also not powdery old smelling florals. It is perfect for all occasions, a quick throw on...
Oscar De La RentaBella Rosa EDP
Tested
This is my first time trying the grey tube and it is a very natural look to the lashes. I can build it up and I get more volume, but it is still on the natural separated lash look. Compared to the dark purple one that I used to have, this is very dif...
Prosa Volume Mascara
I am retesting this and even after all this time since I had first purchases this, I still do not like this. If you have texture or scarring this will not look good on the skin at all. The only place this product looks good is my forehead, which is o...
Elf Putty Bronzer
This has been a favorite for years, but I decided to retest it because I have not used this in quite a while. This is a thicker foundation but once applied this does have a skin like look to the skin. Sephora Collection is way too underrated for my l...
Sephora Collection Best Skin Ever Foundation
This blush performance is so good. For the price, it performs just as much. This does not require a blush combo, the way many of my other blushes do. It looks great on top of all my texture and my scars. A perfect powder for textured skin. Loved the ...
KVD Everlasting Blush
Ulta Beauty collection is way too underrated for my liking. These blushes are affordable and they have such a nice shade range. Pretty pinks and berries as well as peachy tones. So affordable and are perfect for sensitive skin. Will always buy these ...
Ulta Beauty Collection Velvet Veil Minerals Powder Blush
I am so sad that this is going to be discontinued. This has such a lightweight and thin formula that is perfect underneath concealers. It has a really nice color coverage to it and it doesn't make the skin cakey even after applying all your powders. ...
Milani Conceal + Perfect Undereye Brightener
This is such an underrated liquid bronzer, lightweight, easy to blend, and such a buildable formula. Milani plz do not discontinue these.
Conceal + Perfect Liquid Contour - Milani Cosmetics
I retested this out, and I finally figured out how to work with it. My problem for the longest time was that it would be visible even after foundation. Mixing it with a peach color corrector helped neutralize the green, but the green canceled out my ...
L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Green Corrector
This is SOOOOO good. Its matte, buildable, such a great shade. I cannot believe no one talk about this. I got this on a random Ulta trip just because. I am so glad I got it, because it is now one of my favorite matte powder bronzers.
Silky Matte Bronzing Powder - Milani Cosmetics
Makeup Revolution, why did you discontinue this!! This is such a pretty and buildable pink blush. Its that in between of a bright baby pink that looks absolutely stunning on the skin. It is buildable and can be built up to a very intense look.
Revolution Blusher Reloaded Pressed Powder
I wanted to love this blush fully, but it faded so quickly. It does work well as a blending shade, but on its own, it will not last. Love the formula, love the shade, but wished it lasted longer.
BLUSH - nabicosmetic
This has way too much scent to it. It does smell like a light perfume. This does mesh all of my powders together which is what I need. But I cannot with the scent.
Essence - Spray Fix
Ulta Beauty Collection is way too underrated for my liking. I need people to get on their zoom. This is such a great texture on the lips. Buildable and glossy with a balm feel on the lips that is comfortable and does not enhance any of my dry lips. I...
ULTA Beauty Collection - Chill Pill Gloss Stick Lipstick
This is such a good product. It did take me a second to figure out how to work with these but I love it. This DOES NOT BUDGE, so if you cannot do a good lipliner look, this may be way to quick drying. A trial and error product for sure. But I ate som...
ULTA Beauty Collection - Purple Fizz Magic Marker Lip Stain
I use to LOVE this. My ride or die for a good while. Now in 2026, it is just okay. I love the tint it leaves my brows, but it does not have enough grip for my brows. I need a stronger hold, that this just does not have. My makeup style has changed, s...
Ashy Brows 04 Make Me Brow Eyebrow Gel Mascara - Essence
I LOVE these so much. I got this on sale, and it is still that same serum formula that is easy to blend out. I need even more shades of these.
Shop Wildest Dreams | Weightless Liquid Blush by ColourPop®
I have some beef with this. The packaging keeps on coming apart so it has leaked on me. But the performance is really good. I love the shade, love the glitter, but hate the packaging. If you love glitter lipgloss that you can actually see the glitter...
META GLOW MULTI-REFLECTIVE LIPGLOSS - Essence Cosmetics
I wanted to love this so bad. But this is just not that great for textured skin. The glitter particles in it do not look well on my scars. It is very texture enhancing. I love the shade, but and the formula, but the glitters make my skin look extra b...
Halo Glow Liquid Blush Wand | e.l.f. Cosmetics
Dare I say I will be buying a more than $20 lipgloss again. I loved the frosty lip look this gives me. The glitters on this is stunning and very long lasting. I have been looking for a frosty gloss and this is perfect. I need more shades of these.

I am finally understanding the hype behind this show after so many years. I am fully obsessed with it. The plot, the overall story is not that great, yet it still grabs my attention. Have not been able to watch anything else. My favorite character is...
Teen Wolf (TV Series 2011–2017)
I love movies where I so not need to think. There is a good plot point and my man Steve Howey is in it. It is perfect for when I need to edit. We need to bring back motorcycles in media, whatever happened to it. I need a gmmtv show, a Netflix teen mo...
Supercross (2005)
One of the best movies of this era. It stands the test of time. The humor, the delivery, the actors and chemistry. Chefs kiss. I loved it when it released and I still love it now. My favorite character is Bumper, but my man Donald is a good second.
Pitch Perfect
I forget that there were multiple movies in this series. As much as I love the first movie, the 2nd one is not the same. Some moments felt forced, and trying to take the best from the first and transfer it, but it did not hit as well. Am I still gonn...

Such an iconic movie, the characters, the writing, the costumes, sooooo tea. This movie makes me believe want to believe in love again. I am still looking for that yellow dress even after all these years. I rewatch this movie at least twice a year. I...
Watch How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
I watched this movie for the first time when I was so young. I truly believe this shaped me into wanting to pursue dance. I fell in love with the bright lights, the costumes, and the makeup, and don't even get me started on the dance numbers. Will ne...
Burlesque
One of my favorite Netflix movies. My girl Victoria never misses. This movie is so colorful, and it is such an interesting plot. It is a light watch that can be watched int he background while editing. I rewatch this so many times, yet I still love i...
Afterlife of the Party
Ever since I have first watched this movie, it is always a rewatch every winter. It is such a fun plot point and I loved all the actors. It is such a fun and lighthearted movie, I have rewatched it so many times and I do not get tired of it.
Love Hard
This is my first time watching this movie, and I do think I am going to rewatch this, it does not feel like yearly rewatch, but I will watch it again in a couple years. I liked the plot, but I admit I needed more buildup for the brother and Anne Hat...
Bride Wars
This was my first time watching this movie. I like it. There were moments that it was frustrating but I loved the home feeling it gives. I am going to rewatch it again in a couple years. I loved the opening scene so much, that was my fave shot.
Watch Forever My Girl
This was my first time watching this movie. There really is not much to it. I felt like the male character was a stereotypical male character and I don't like how he end up with his coworker, while he was rude to her for the most part. The banter did...
Groundhog Day
Yes I did watch a Christmas movie in January. Anyways, I do like this movie. It had a good build up between the characters, and I loved the storyline. As someone who doesn't sleep most days, this was such a cool concept. I will be rewatching this nex...
No Sleep 'Til Christmas
I don't know how to feel about this movie. The plot was very interesting to me, but then I think more deeply about it, and realize it's odd. Im unsure about this movie. My favorite character was the friend that loved tea, I need to see her in more pr...
Watch Ghosting: The Spirit of Christmas
Okay chemistry!!! This was just a random watch and I loved it. The plot is so interesting and it had so many funny moments. I will be rewatching this next holiday season. I have added this to my Holidays movie rotation.
Holiday Engagement
My man MARCEL!!!!! I forget my girly from glee has projects outside of the show. I watched this randomly and fell in love with it. The concept is so cute. Loved the characters, the sets, the storyline. Will be rewatching next holiday season.

The Ugly Truth (2009) - IMDb
This movie has furthered my hatred for men. Not my man BONES though, he my fave character. There is so much going on in this movie, its just funny. I will probably watch this in a couple of years, solely because the men (except Bones) annoy me, or at...
Moms' Night Out (2014) - IMDb

I absolutely love this product. It works well for dry lips, and dry face and body. Will be repurchasing this product once I finish up some other skin care items I still have. Perfect for dry skin and oily skin that doesn't feel thick and heavy.
