I'm starting my favorites off with this new concealer. I generally don't switch my concealers up too much, I know what I like and I stick to it but I bought this Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous one on a whim and for days when I'm in a hurry I love the easy applicator. It's also super thick and brightening. I have mine in the shade Light.
So I have a story about these eyelash curlers by e.l.f. It's not often I get embarrassed by things anymore but one day I was on the train and I somehow left these on my seat. The train host started screaming that someone left their eyelashes on their seat. The crowded train started laughing and he was waving my eyelash curlers around in the air. I would have had to push through a crowd full of people to get them so I just counted them as a loss. But I couldn't stop thinking about them since these are literally the best eyelash curlers I've ever owned so I went out and bought two. I don't know how to explain it, and I tried to show it in the picture but these eyelash curlers are not as rounded as normal ones and they fit my eye perfectly. If you've found you struggle with normal curlers I highly suggest giving these a try. Disclaimer: a lot of people reviewed this badly and hated it. I LOVE mine. Just be warned!
This Revlon Kate Moss lipstick in 08 is new to my collection and I have been loving it. It's a true mauve and perfect for every day. It's a creamy consistency but really long wearing, something I love about all her lipsticks!
This e.l.f. waterproof eyeliner in Black has been sitting in my drawer for quite some time waiting to get some love. Recently I ran out of my favorite NYC eyeliner so I thought I'd give this a go. At first I didn't like it but the more I used it the more pigmented it seemed to become. It's a felt tip so it might've needed some time to get going but once it did it goes on super black and is super long lasting. Plus, it's $2.00.
If you've been around my blog for a while you know that I am a huge fan of my good friend Rainbow's blog and YouTube channel. She does inspirational posts and is one of the sweetest, most supportive friends I have here in the blog world. She's from New Zealand and her accent is amazing! I'm especially proud of this video she did recently sharing her story with anorexia. Please go watch it and give Rainbow some love!

Thanks Ella, it's such a perfect shade for anyone! Thanks so much for stopping in, I hope you are doing well and you have a fun weekend! XO -Kim
DeleteI used to use my eyelash curler religiously until I got the lash extensions. Then, after I let them all come out I haven't used one since. Funny how I couldn't live without it but now I don't know where it is. HA! I hope you enjoy your weekend beautiful!
ReplyDeleteIt is crazy how we are always changing. I'm like that with eyeliner, sometimes I can't live without it and then I'll go through phases where I like not wearing it! I hope you had a wonderful weekend and are having a great start to the week gorgeous girl! XO -Kim
DeleteIf I could have only one Beauty tool, it would so be my eyelash curler!! What a great story and bless your heart, thank goodness they are not crazy expensive!! That Kate Moss shade is glorious and so are you!! Have an amazing weekend beauty!!
ReplyDeleteI am the same, I have stick straight lashes so I'm attached to mine. I am happy these ones are super affordable. Thank you so much my beautiful friend, I hope you had a wonderful weekend and happy week ahead! XO -Kim
DeleteI love that shade of lipstick, you should try the Katy Perry line. I just picked up a few today and they're pretty damn good. I hope you have a good friday the 13th, it's my favorite day (after halloween of course).

DeleteHi Kim :)
ReplyDeleteI have the same cover girl concealer and got it for the same reason! :D I do really like mine but for some reason under the eye area it seems to be a little blotchy (just a tiny bit) and I don't know if that's normally something that happens with concealer because I've never really used concealer, is that common or should concealer slide on smoothly? By the way, I LOVE e.l.f :D They're such an affordable brand with great quality products :) <3 OMG the eyelash curler story >.< Why would the train host make such a big deal out of it hahah "someone left their eye lashes on the seat" oh my gosh. Though completely understandable on your part. I wouldn't have walked back after that person was so loud about it. I LOVED Rainbow's video :D <3 I'm so proud of her as well <3 Hope you're having a lovely day Kim :)

I feel horrible that it's taken me so long to reply to you Crystal! No, it totally should not be blotchy, which can be the concealer or other factors. Do you use a primer under your eyes? If you want to talk about it more, email me at thethirtysomethinglife@gmail.com and I'll give you some good recommends for primers and setting powders for under the eyes. I am such a huge fan of e.l.f., I love a good bargain! I know, it was so ridiculous, I was like yep, bye curlers, have a happy life LOL. Isn't Rainbow just amazing? Love that girl. I hope your week is off to a great start you gorgeous girl! XO -Kim
DeleteI love the rimmel Kate moss lipsticks! They are such great quality and have great lasting power! Great list, Kim! :)
ReplyDeleteThey are seriously some of my favorites! Thanks for stopping in Cara! XO -Kim
DeleteLove the look of that lipstick Kim! I watched Rainbow's video and found it so touching, so brave of her to share her story! Funny thing, I'm also obsessed with NZ accent! :D I

Isn't Rainbow amazing? Aside from the video she is one of the most positive people I know, she is so inspirational! Isn't the accent amazing? Do you still have one from growing up in Poland? I imagine I'd be smitten with yours as well! I hope you have a great week Paula, thanks so much for stopping by! XO -Kim
Deletethe concealer looks lovely :D

It's super good! Thanks for stopping in Clare! XO -Kim
DeleteI had the worst day on that Friday hon lol. On top of everything that's already been happening with the move, health and job, my computer decided to shut down on me and I haven't got it back since. Haha, so Friday the 13th really lived up to its name for me that one time. All good now, thankfully :D
ReplyDeleteI love the sound of that concealer as I am always on the hunt for a good one! That lippy is gorgeous as well. Love those Kate Moss lipsticks a lot! They are such a bargain and so so pretty. Thanks for sharing Rainbow-Rose's video. She's such a sweetheart <3
Hope you are having a great weekend hon!!

Awwww Nadia, I'm sorry to hear you had such a terrible day. It sounds awful! I'm glad it's all behind you, those days are the worst! Thanks for stopping by and leaving me some kind words despite your awful day, you are the sweetest! Hope you have a wonderful week ahead! XO -Kim
DeleteLove your eyelash curler story! I don't know why, but I feel like using eyelash curlers makes absolutely no difference whatsoever with how my lashes look. Maybe I am not using it right or maybe I should try the one you recommended from E.L.F! Well, I hope you have a lovely week ahead Kim!
ReplyDeleteI feel like you probably have nice curled lashes already hahaha. If you have lashes that are already quite curled it probably wouldn't do anything for you! Mine are literally straight as straw so it's an essential for me! I hope you have a wonderful week Katie, almost summer break for you right? Hope you are planning something fun! XO -Kim
DeleteDo you guys not have them in NZ? I'm gonna have to pick which ones I think you'll like and send you some! Hahaha I know, so ridiculous huh? I am so proud of you Rainbow, so many people are inspired by your positivity and your story, you are truly amazing! I hope you have a wonderful week my gorgeous friend, love you! XO -Kim
