My Favorite Bronzer

Even though I have a natural tan, I like to use a light bronzer to give me a little glow especially during the winter. Here are 2 that I use.

Cargo Beach Blush is a recent purchase for me. I got it in Coral Beach for $28.00 at Ulta. It comes in a round tin and has 4 different color strips and the colors have a gold shimmer to them. You can blend the colors together or use them individually. What I like about this is that I can use the darker shades as a conture, the lighter shades as a highlight, or blend them all as a blush.

I have used Physician's Formula Shimmer Strips forever. You can use it as an eyeshadow, bronzer, blush, or highlighter. Like Cargo it comes in different color strips that can be used individually or blended together. It also has a gold shimmer to it but I don't think the colors are as vivrant as the ones from Cargo. I use the Sunset Strip palette. It cost around $12.99 at a drugstore that carries the brand.

Cargo OneBase


Cargo OneBase is a concealer & foundation in one. It comes in a silver squeeze tube with a wand applicator. Each tube is 0.60 oz and comes in 6 shades. OneBase isn't for all over face usage, there isn't enough product for it. It's for spot usage in key areas like under the eyes, the nose, around the mouth, and other imperfections. I found that this product feels light and blended well with my skin without looking spotty. It also contains vitamin E, avocado extract, and chamomile to help with you skin. I think it's great for a quick make up application when you don't have enough time to do a full makeup routine. And since it's small you can take it on the go. I was surprised on how much I like this product. The price is a little high at $26 for the amount of product but I think it's worth it.

Review
Pro: Portable, Blends Well, Go for Quick Application
Con: I wish there was more product

My favorite Eyeliners

These are my 3 favorite eyeliners. They all last for a long time, pigmented, and glides on smoothly.

Cargo Eyeliner High Pigment Pencil come in 2 color and cost $16. Of the 3 I think this one has the boldest color in black.
Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner come in over a dozen colors, with the same names as some of there popular eyeshadows, and cost $17. The pencils have a bit of glitter on them and with all the colors they're good for fun, bold eyes.

Rimmel London Exaggerate Eye Definer come in 2 colors and cost $5.50. Unlike the other 2 pencils this one is automatic but it does come with it's own sharpener on the end of the pencil.
