Makeup Manual - For Everyone From Beginner to Pro by Bobbi Brown

      I've had a copy of Makeup Manuel by Bobbi Brown for a while now and realized I never did a proper book review on it. As a huge fan of Bobbi Brown's work and of makeup, I am still thoroughly impressed by this book. Whether you're starting out with makeup or a seasoned professional, this book is a must have for all makeup lovers out there. It's quite simply the best.  

 I love that each chapter covers so much information in a condensed yet helpful form and it ranges from several topics. Brushes, different makeup products and how to use them plus tips for building your portfolio and more. There's also so many pictures showing off her technique when applying makeup which is very helpful.

make up for ever ultra hd concealer // Giveaway

       Recently I was lucky to be sent some products from Make Up For Ever and stashed a few aside for another giveaway! Introducing the new Ultra HD Invisible Cover Concealer..

      For the past month I've been wearing Make Up For Ever's Ultra HD Foundation and have been really loving it. This formula gives a light to medium coverage, click here to see a makeup tutorial I filmed using it. I've only had the concealer for a couple of weeks now and have gotten to try it a few times. I was impressed by the lightweight formula and how the concealer instantly brightened my eye area and remained crease-free without having to apply a setting powder over it. The foundation and concealer are a great match together if you're someone who likes a lighter coverage. Both apply smoothly and give a very natural makeup look. This concealer is meant to correct dark circles and is a must-have for instant undereye perfection.

#InstaTutorials

I've recently been playing with the idea of creating mini product reviews, hauls & quick tutorials on my Instagram and I've gotten some great feedback! I'd like to create these #InstaTutorials every week with an occasional #InstaHAUL or #InstaReview mostly including drugstore products! *I honestly go to Walgreens too much --- every week --- oops* A few weeks ago, someone reached out to me from a Walgreens campaign and asked if I could create a tutorial through pictures on my Instagram and I did =) It only took half an hour to get the shots I wanted and post it on the app. I've also been creating mini video reviews for another app called Showroom, which I've talked about in a few of my Youtube videos recently. Have you guys downloaded that app? You can find me under my real name, Sarah Ragsdale.
