Beauty Find: current favorites

Here are a few of my favorites right now... 
Some I've had for awhile and others, I've only had a short bit. But all of them I currently liking...a lot! I have kind of categorized each product. Let me know if you have used any of these products, I'd love to know your opinion on them too. 

Hair:
I first heard about this hairbrush from Zoe from her YouTube channel Zoella. Then I saw it in ulta, and knew I wanted to try it, but didn't get it. Then I was in there again, and decided to buy it. Glad I did! It's great! So soft & so gentle! And it does what it says with the pamphlet it comes with, which states: promotes healthy looking hair by noticeably increasing shine, leaving it looking silky smooth after styling.  I would recommend it to anyone, it's that good! 

This stuff is so awesome smelling! Mmm, it smells floral-y/fruity, but it smells really good! And it gives my hair an extra oomph. My hair can last about 3 days of no washing, it was only doing 2, until I used this stuff! But this stuff costs $18.98! Eek! But it's really good!


Make-up:
This is one of my neccessities for leaving the house! I try to never leave without my bold brow! This is great! And the price tag is only $3.00! Ya can't beat that by much less! But it lasts all day, it doesn't smudge and it gives me the look I want!

I just bought this mascara and I must say it's amazing! And it doesn't have any of the harmful things that normal mascaras have in them. It's a vacation for my eyelashes! The formula is so soft, it doesn't flake & it's so easy to wash off! But even though it's healthier, it's still voluminzing and lengthening! Amazing product! It will set you back about $30. But hopefully it will last a long time.

This is my go-to shade for fall & winter! It's perfection. The perfect berry shade. 
All because a girl came into my booth last year at Funkyfinds with this shade on! I wouldn't have known about it if I hadn't of asked her what it was! Back to the color, it's such a deep color, but it's still soft enough for you to dab it on your fingers and rub it on your lips. 

These two NYX products are great. The wonder pencil is awesome for your lower lash line. It brightens it well. And the HD concealer is great for spot concealer & under the eye. It's a great pick-me-up eye concealer!

Last but not the very least, this blending sponge phenomenol! I really like sponges. I received this last Christmas and I thought I didn't have a use for it, but I finally figured out that I do and I've been using it non-stop! This is not the beauty blender. But I still like it!


Body:
I bought this last year and I really haven't used it much until recently. It's been great for my underarms. They have been a bit irritated with the other deodorant I've been using so I decided to try this again and so far my underarms feel great! It an awesome product!

Apps:
Two apps that I have been enjoying are: scrabble & kindle! It's nice to work out your brain! I recommend both apps! 




And there you have it! Hope you enjoyed it! Leave comment below, if you like any of the products or if you have any questions or statements! Love y'all! -Ryn

Beauty Find: $10.98 mascara


Just yesterday started a fabulous sale on mascara at one of my favorite beauty stores around, beauty brands!!! $10.98 for at least 8 different high end mascaras! I went in yesterday, but I couldn't make up my mind, and I had made up my mind one of two things would have happened. 1. I would stayed until they closed for the day or 2. Bought all of the mascaras that are participating in the sale... Neither one was going to work, so I went on my merry way... And then promptly looked at reviews online. 

I'm one who loves volume on my lashes. The more va-va-voom on my lashes, the better! (That and lipstick...) 
So I think I've made the decision of which one I'm getting...(yes, I'm only getting one this time...well, I think!) I think I'm either going with the:
Tarte gifted Amazonian clay smart mascara
DuWop lash venom
Per-fekt lash perfection gel

If you're not sure you have a store near you, or you want to participate in this amazing deals, go to: www.beautybrands.com and check it out!!!


Also, Butter London made it to Beauty brands, and I am such a happy girl, because I just adore butter london and I told one of the sales associates last year, that the only thing that I would LOVE about beauty brands even more would be if they started carrying Butter London! And they did! The entire collection, beauty & their nail line!!! Whoop whoop! 
P.s. Just. The other day, my sister Heather texted my that www.zulilly.com was have a sale of 3 Butter London's for $26! Pretty good deal I might add, since it would cost you $45 otherwise, if you had purchased it through a retailer. But anyways, so all the sets I was looking at & thinking about getting was surrounded around a metallic charcoal grey color called chimney sweep. Well, I ended up not getting the zulilly bunch....but, as I was going through my nail polishes for the preparation for last Fridays DIY painted bobby pins, I discovered that I already own chimney sweep! Yippee! It was like a mini Christmas for me! So happy! 


And one more thing, beauty brands also has a sale going for $9.98 hair sprays... I would check it out if I were you! 

And they also have Deborah Lippmann nailpolishes 50% off right now! Because they had to make room for Butter London! ; )

Beauty find: colored mascara & dry shampoo



So, I was grocery shopping the other day (and what's grocery shopping, w/o perusing through the cosmetics?) Well the Kroger I went to, has sort of like a "what's new" section. So I was looking and low & behold, I found colored mascara!!! It's by Maybelline New York great lash limited addition. (I secretly want them to stay forever!) They have: teal, emerald, hot pink, purple, berry & royal blue! I didn't buy any that day, buuut then I bought two tubes a few days later. : ) Colors I bought were: I See blue (royal blue) & So Very Berry (berry). I may get more too! ; )

(Blue)
(Berry)
I've literally been wanting a periwinkle mascara for about 10 months, I bought one tube of CK mascara and it totally wasn't worth the $16.00 I paid for it! So I was super excited when I found this mascara! It's such an unexpected detail to put on your face. I'm going to have fun with these! P.S. these tubes are under $5.00!!! 


And the next product that I really like, is: Batiste dry shampoo in medium & brunette, which blends with tour hair! This is a fabulous product! If your tired of using dry shampoo that makes you look like you're prematurely graying & won't brush out of your hair, then this product is for you! And the scent is sooo lovely! It's very perfume-y! 
This product is a product of the UK. It's slightly expensive for just a can of dry shampoo, totaling at $8.99. (The Lord totally rocked my world, when I was in Marshall's and I found multiple cans for $5.99!!! He totally gives you the desires of your heart! Even if its a tiny thing like dry shampoo!)
Such a great product! I will be sure to buy more.  When I'll be in England I should stock up! ; )


(On a side note, did you know that the US dollar is stronger than pounds? Kind of strange, but awesome just the same! I'm a sponge right now, I'm soaking up all information about London! I want to visit so badly! I also want to meet ALL of the YouTubers I've grown to love & watch, I'll  post a blog about that shortly!) 

Hope you enjoy! And you should try these products out and then comment below to tell me if you like them! 👇👇👇 

Love y'all! -Ryn

Beauty Find: You can't go wrong with lipstick & mascara...

(Girl about town) 

Nothing is as fabulous than a woman wearing no more than lipstick, mascara & a lil powder on her face. It's a confident act to do that, and such a pretty one as well! Going au natural is a luxury in and of itself! One should do it regularly...

I'm a big fan of bright lipstick & mascara. It's so simplistic/elegant to me. Just the other day, I just wanted to wear red lipstick. I haven't worn red lipstick since Christmas time... But I REALLY wanted to! And for those of you who don't know me, I carry about 11 MAC lipsticks + others in my purse... (I've got a hook up of Mac supplies) and I carry them around with me, pretty much everywhere I go! It's been like this since high school... Crazy! And i get a little sad when i change out my purse to a smaller bag or im travling, i then only bring 4-5... Anywho, I think what spurred on the red lips, was that I had on a white V-neck (which I made & I absolutely love!) and something about a white v-neck and red lips, it's just well um, sexy.... And very chic! 

Now to the other part of this blog, I'm a HUGE fan of mascara! I will layer and layer and layer mascara on top of over each other to make them stand out. I'm a fan of my length of lashes, but my sister has such luscious lashes! They are incredibly long. I almost think she took all of the length and thickness from both my other sister and myself.

(Russian red)

A few weeks ago, my favorite beauty store: Beauty Brands was having a fabulous event, which they always do! And they are ALWAYS so nice. And they take competitors coupons! Big plus right there, since there are days when I think Ulta doesn't even take their own coupons...

Anyway, the beauty event was about 15 or so different kinds of prestige(high end) mascaras for $10.98 ea!!!! A total steal! So I bought 2 different tubes of mascara, which were: hyperlash by smashbox & glominerals. I really like hyperlash, the glominerals one, ehhh it's ok, not my fave. But I'll still use it.
One thing to add, go to an event early, because if you waited like I did, well, lets just say, the selection is few... Which I would have liked to try some of the others... Next time! 

And then a few nights ago, I was at Kroger's grocery store, and I had just pinned this mascara, like two days before. And so I bought the maybelline cat eyes mascare, which I layer with Hyperlash... And it works great! And I think I paid only $5.89 for, and I think that was a good price for it. 

Side note: 
Funny story, years ago, I hated loose eyelashes! Grossed me out entirely! Where I made my family get the loose eyelashes off my face and made them get them off their own faces too. And the whole blowing it off your finger and making a wish thing, um no! Eww! That's just disturbing. Like I said, funny story! Hah!



My favorites right now:

Lips:
Impassioned by MAC
Russian red by MAC
Girl about town by MAC


Lashes:
Benefit They're real?
Smashbox Hyperlash 
Maybelline the colossal volume express in regard feline 


On my wish list to get:
Rebel lipstick by MAC ( I saw on a customer, with fair skin like me, last Fall at an event and I have wanted it ever since!)
Ruby woo by MAC (I've heard this is the best red lipstick ever! It works for any skin tone.)
