5 Beauty Items I Can't Live Without

There are so many fantastic beauty products that I couldn't even begin to put them all in one post so I thought I would start off with my top 5. These products are ones that I have been using for a long time and love. They span makeup, skincare, and hair. Hopefully this will inspire you to try at least one of these products.

1. Maybelline Dream Fresh BB 8-In-1 Beauty Balm Skin Perfector

This is by far my favorite foundation or bb cream. I have tried many and I always come back to this one. I actually received a sample of it and didn't think much of it so I just put it in my drawer. One day I ran out of my other bb cream so I thought I would give it a try and I LOVED it. The coverage was enough to blur any blemishes I had but it still felt light and natural. I am on my 3rd one and I know it won't be my last. I wear the shade medium.

2. Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette

I was late on the Naked Palette train. I never bought the first one and I wasn't going to get the 2nd. I ended up buying it with a gift card after the Tarte one I wanted was sold out. It turns out that was one of the best things. All of the colors are amazing and pigmented. I use every single color and there are so many combinations. This is what I take with me any time I go anywhere and it is perfect. I can't imagine not using it.

3. Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

I have to do a lot to keep my skin clear and it is a rather intense process. This is the first thing I use in the morning before I do my makeup and part of my nighttime skin routine. It is a great cleanser and keeps my skin nice and soft. I love it and have two bottles of it one in my shower and one by the sink. I give it an A++

4. Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Anti-Frizz Serum

This is a life saver. My hair is a major pain and frizzy. I put this in before I straighten or curl my hair and it keeps it shiny and not frizzy. I have frizzy, hard to manage hair and this keeps it nice all day.

5. Rimmel London Lasting Finish Lipstick-Kate Moss Collection in shade 014

This is my go to lipstick. It is a pinky nude color. It looks great by itself or you can put a nude or clear sparkly gloss over it to spice it up a little. I always carry this with me in my bag and I probably wear it 7/10 times that I wear lipstick. 

There were so many more products that I could have picked but these are my top 5 everyday products.

Hello!

Hi there!
As you may have guessed, I'm Kelsey. I am 17 years old and live in the USA, however I suggest that you pick some exciting accent from some place in the world and read the rest of this in that accent because it just makes it that much cooler. No, I'm not crazy, give it a try.
So, I figured I would start off with a little getting to know me post. The first thing for you to know is that I love music with all of my heart. It is my passion and what I want to do with my life. I am a singer first, but I play guitar, piano, violin and I am about to learn the ukulele. I am in 2 choirs and that't pretty cool because they are audition only ones and I am the only young person in them. One of which is the elite chamber choir and there were only 3 spots for my voice part.
I have a slight obsession with makeup, and by slight I mean I am completely obsessed. I love makeup, beauty, skin care, and fashion. I find the ever changing trends fascinating and I would study them all the time if I could. I probably have enough makeup that if I never bought any again, I wouldn't run out until I was 50.
Ed Sheeran is my favorite person in the entire universe so I probably talk about him way too much. Demi Lovato has had an amazingly huge impact on my life. I also majorly love Little Mix, Taylor Swift, Cher Lloyd, Tyler Ward, Rita Ora, Mumford and Sons, Sleeping With Sirens, The Ready Set, We The Kings, Passenger, Selah Sue, Macklemore and many others. My all-time favorite TV Show was Gilmore Girls and I am still so sad it went off the air. Right now I watch Pretty Little Liars and Grey's Anatomy religiously. Mean Girls is the best movie ever and anyone who says otherwise is a LIAR. I know every line.
I live 10 minutes from the beach but I never go, I don't even know why. My dream is to get signed by a record label and be able to support myself and my family with music. I'd also love to find a way to be able to help people and animals because that is another one of my passions.
This got long so I am going to stop here and do a part two some day. But until then I hope you will stick around and keep reading to see whats coming. This gives you a little taste into some of the things that will be on here but it is sure to expand and grow. On a side note, I am very excited because March 23rd and 24th I will be at Playlist Live in Orlando getting to meet some of my All Time favorite Youtubers so make sure you check back because I will be posting everything about my trip and the experience here!
Thanks and much love. xx. Kelsey
