Happy summer! There are so many makeup releases right now I can not keep up. What I can tell you is that I don't wear foundation in the summer but I may have to check out some concealer. I hope you are wearing your SPF and enjoying all your new makeup finds. Here are some of the goodies I am hoping to get.

Origins Original Skin Retexturizing Mask with Rose Clay, $26

I received a sample of this and it literally changed my life. In terms of trying to remove these pimples on my chin. This mask dries everything up and brings it to the surface. I'm going to keep using the sample to see what happens but I feel like it's helping my skin. This may be one of my favorite skin care products of all time.

The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Solution, $5.30

I already bought this and I've been using it for a week (video coming soon). I need to get rid of these pimples on my face! My dermatologist originally gave me a retinoid prescription but that stuff is horrible. The side effects are crazy. I'm now back to trying skin care products from Sephora because there has to be away. I think I've found a product that will help me.

My goal is to get rid of these pimples on my chin once and for all.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Eye Primer, $23

In almost every eyeshadow tutorial I see on YouTube they use eye primer on top of the other eyeshadows. A lot of people have specifically been using Anatasia Beverly Hills Eye Primer. I usually don't usually use that many primers but I need this to help step up my eyeshadow game. Hopefully, this stuff works.

Indique SEA Tahitian Wave, $520 (4 bundles of 24 inch)

My go-to Indique Pure Wavy wig is about to be 7 years old. I need to replace her but I'm not buying Pure hair again. My new strategy with hair is to buy cheaper hair that way I can buy a more plentiful about. So no more thousand dollar hair purchases. I bought a second batch of Pure hair and it's not the same. Sadly, I don't see myself buying any more of that hair unless it returns to its previous quality.

I'm not giving up on Indique though. So I'm switching to the SEA collection. It's steam treated South East Asian hair. The price point is sweet and I won't have to curl it so much if it already has a wave. I appreciate that the brand is transparent enough to discuss how they treat the hair. I'm going to keep researching hair brands but right now this is my top choice. Please leave recommendations in the comments.

KISS Blowout Lash Pixie, Multipack, $12.99

I love individual lashes! After two bad experiences, I'm realizing that there is very little training when it comes to becoming a lash technician. So now I'm going to give strip lashes a try. Honestly, this is a skill I should have mastered years ago. Better late than never right? I have small eyes so I need to start cutting the lashes and making it work. I'll keep you guys posted.

These lashes look full like individual lashes so I am really excited to use them. I haven’t tried applying lashes in years so this should be interesting.
