I was beyond excited when my box showed up in the mail. Seriously it was like Christmas all over again!
There are the most amazing things in this box.
A few of my personal favorites are the fingerless gloves. They are going to be so nice this time of year!
The earbuds and the reed diffuser (which smells like sugar cookies) are amazing.
The candlenut body creme is the best smelling body creme ever. No joke! And it makes my hands so very smooth.
Inside the fabfitfun magazine are a few other giftcards and coupons that are super fun!
And I am so excited to try out the cranberry colored nail polish and dermalogica products.
Okay maybe I didn't have any favorites... I love them all!

Besides the actual products the thing I love most about this subscription box is the surprise of each season's box. You never know exactly what you are getting until it comes, you just know everything in it is going to be good! It's something to look forward to and who doesn't love getting a package full of goodies in the mail!

Holiday Glam With Red Lip & Plum Lip

Holiday Makeup

Hey everyone!! This holiday makeup look is pretty common this time of year. There is something about a sparkly gold eye, and cherry red lips that puts you in the holiday spirit! I thought I would try to pair this gold eye makeup with a dark plum lip to change things up. I honestly love both of them so much and would wear either or to a holiday party. If bold colors aren't your thing, don't worry! A nude lip would look just as incredible too!

 1- to set my lid so all shadows will blend easier.

6- all over lip to clean up any fall out. (this color has a peachy gold undertone, which was I wanted for the gold glitter to go on top!).

"These are a Few Of Our Favorite Things."

I am so excited to share with you a short list of gift ideas for your mom/sister/wife/friend! 

I wanted to keep it pretty simple so I am only sharing my very favorite products. Be sure to look in a couple of the captions for a bold code to use so you can get get some pretty awesome discounts!

Flora Body Care Scrubs

These Scrubs are absolutely amazing! We are obsessed. You can read more about what we think of them HERE. 

They are already inexpensive but be sure to use the code PUCKERUPSTYLE20 for 20% off! Plus if you buy 2 scrubs this month you will get the 3rd for free! So shop away because everyone will love them!

ColourPop Cosmetics

We absolutely love this make-up line!  From the eye shadows, liquid lipsticks, cheek colors, to the gel liners we are completely obsessed. One of our favorite things about ColourPop is the quality and price. You honestly can't beat it. Liquid Lipstics are only $6 and eyeshadows are $5! If you are new to colourpop or just haven't subscribed to their emails make sure you do because you will get a $5 dollar coupon to use on your purchase!

Bloke Body

These are my all time favorite lip balms. I have the sweet mint and orange blossom and I seriously could not love them more. They smell heavenly and make your lips as soft as be. I've never experienced anything like them except for maybe Baby lips but they don't smell like these do! 

They would make the perfect stocking stuffers and it would even be super cute to tie them on the outside of a gift!

Rocksbox

Roxbox gives you unlimited access to rent designer jewelry. All you have to do is sign up and add jewelry to your wish list. They will then send you 3 pieces of jewelry based on your style and specific requests that you can wear as much as you want. When you are done and want new pieces you send them back and they will send you 3 more pieces! It's just $19.00 a month and you can return your jewelry as many or few times as you want! Also, if you just love one of your pieces and want to keep it forever you can buy it and use the $10 of credit you get automatically each month towards it! 

I am not a huge jewelry wearer or shopper but I still love it! I also get sick of things super fast so Rocksbox is perfect for me. I also love that I am not locked into any contract and can cancel at anytime! I can't even explain to you how fun it is to get my jewelry in the mail!

Be sure to use code puckerupstylexoxo to get your first month free! 

They also have some good deals going on if you want to sign up for 3, 6, or 12 month memberships, which obviously would make an amazing gift!

Ulta

This is the best shampoo/conditioner. I have extremely fine hair and since having babies my hair as been falling out like crazy. At times I seriously thought I was balding. Since using Nioxin my hair has been so much healthier. I still loose a little hair but not chunks like I was before. It also adds so much volume to my hair. I love it! Right now I only use the shampoo and conditioner but they have a bunch of other products that I am dying to try. I would recommend visiting your local Ulta and checking everything out there! Also right now if you buy 2 you get a 3rd product for free!

I know this may seem like a boring gift but if you have a mom/sister/friend who wants healthier and fuller hair they will love this!

skin care.

Hey guys! I hope you all had a wonderful and safe Halloween! Thank you so much for all your sweet comments on our Halloween posts! 

Today I'm blogging about my skin care routine and all the products I use. My skin took a beating after all the Halloween makeup so I thought I would share how I nurse my skin back to health! 

STEP 1

Image Vital C hydrating facial cleanser

 

This face wash has helped my skin so much these past couple of months. Usually, I am EXTREMELY dry. I've noticed that my skin has been getting the hydration it needs because of the oil it produces throughout the day, which is something I've never had before. This cleanser also helps remove any makeup residue I have that makeup wipes don't pick up.

STEP 2

Image ILUMA Intense Brightening Creme 

I am obsessed with this. I have pink undertones, (which I hate). So sometimes I struggle with uneven skin tones. This brightener helps me so much to achieve that healthy, even glow that I want. It leaves my skin feeling smooth like a baby's bottom and brightens my skin making me look more awake, or in my case, alive! This will help with hyper pigmentation and age spots!

STEP 3

Image Ormedic balancing bio-peptide cream.

This product is my holy grail!!!! It's organic, which who doesn't love that?! And the smell is delicious! No really, my face smells like bubble gum, cotton candy! I use this product as my daily and nightly moisturizer. It contains organic Japanese green tea, aloe vera, chamomile and grape seed to restore and balance the skin.

Step 4

Image Vital C hydrating A C E serum

I use this product every single night right before I go to bed. It contains vitamin A, C, and E to help with hydration. It also helps reduce signs of anti-aging. 

STEP 5 (once a week)

GlamGlow Tingling and Exfoliating Mud Mask

I only use this product once a week because it is very intense. This mud mask leaves my skin radiant and glowing. It's used to work with the body's natural moisturizing collagen to provide gentle resurfacing exfoliation. It will help to leave skin smoother, brighter, and softer. It will provide tighter skin texture and help tighten pores. It will provide a more radiant appearance and will absorb impurities without removing the body's natural oils! Every time I wear this mask I can feel my skin tightening everywhere. I can visually see the mask working and fighting to help with my impurities. To say I'm in love would be an understatement.

Most of these products are from Image Skin Care. The salon I work at carries this line, so I'm able to get a discount. These products are pricey. I did find some links through Amazon that offer some discounts.

 I've noticed a tremendous difference in my skin. There are a million different product lines out there that are amazing as well. I've tried inexpensive products that I love and work for me too! I just wanted to share with you guys what I'm currently using and why I love them. If there is a product from here that you would like to know more about, I'm more than willing to help out in any way. Just leave a comment below.

Yes I have makeup on in this picture, but its not edited. I used the natural lighting so you are able to see my skin in real light. This picture was taken about 2 weeks ago when I was heavily dedicated to my skin and trying to drink more water. I definitely noticed a difference. This picture was not taken for the makeup I was wearing. It was taken because I was proud of my results. Right now... I'm trying to work my way back up to this (:

My Ride Or Die Products.

I am someone that absolutely loves to try new products! I feel like I'm always on the hunt for something new and something I will fall in love with. Well, the time has come where not only do I love some products I've discovered, but I really can't live without them. I thought I would list my top 10 products and explain how they've impressed me and why I love them.

MY TOP TEN:

1. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Wipes- This product is an oldie but a goodie. I've been using these wipes for about 4 years now and they're still my number 1. I feel like they get rid of most of my makeup, so then my face wash can do the rest. There is no makeup residue left over after I wash my face and the wipes are so moist! Plus they're at any local grocery store which makes it easy to keep stocked up!
2. Kat Von D Shade and Light Eye Contour Palette- This palette is amazing in every way possible! The shadows are extremely pigmented and blend very seamlessly. All the colors are neutral shades so the looks you can create are endless! The shadows are matte as well so they will work for everybody. If you're a freelance makeup artist this will be your go-to palette. I have loved using it for my brides! 
3. Loreal Infallible Makeup Setting Spray- I've recently discovered this and so far I'm very impressed with it. It holds my makeup together really well & sets my foundation perfectly to a semi-dewy, semi-matte finish. It's refreshing and smells good too. (I'm a sucker for good smelling products!)
4. Loreal Infallible Pro-Matte Foundation- Basically this foundation is my life! It's full coverage, but not heavy. I have been struggling with oily skin the last couple months and this has helped so much for me to keep my skin from looking like grease. I've been applying it with my Beauty Blender and the two together make for a match made in heaven! 
5. Loreal Lumi Light Infusing Primer- This is probably my most favorite product right now.This primer is applied to your face before you apply foundation. Primers make your foundation blend more evenly and make the skin appear brighter!! You can get any primer for oily, dry, or combinations of both skin types. I love this particular primer because of its beautiful natural glow it gives my skin. It's extremely sheer with a touch of shimmer to make the skin look radiant. Who doesn't want skin that looks beautiful?
6. Mary-Loumanizer by TheBalm- My all time favorite illuminator! I literally put this all over my face! I place it on my cheekbones, inner corner on my eyes, brow bone, and sometimes even a little on my bottom lip. By doing this, the light attracts those areas making my skin look like it's glowing and bringing out features that I want to pop! I recommend this product to everyone because I'm seriously obsessed with it. 
7. ColourPop Cosmetics Liquid Lipsticks- Liquid lipsticks are my jam! I love them because they dry matte and they're long lasting. I can eat, kiss my hubby, and talk without it coming off. I probably reapply every 7 hours!! I love this particular brand because you CAN'T beat the price, 6$!! Most liquid lipsticks start around 16$ and up! My go-to/favorite color is "Trap".
8. MaskCARA IIID Foundation Palette. I use this palette every single day on my face. I use it for my highlight, contour, and blush. The formula of this palette is remarkable. I have never felt a creamier product that blends like butter. The finish result brightens your skin making everything look so beautiful and natural. I use my beauty blender to blend it all in. It makes getting ready easier and faster because of how creamy it is. I have been enjoying this palette so much and have noticed a difference in the way my skin looks and feels. 
9. DonnaKaran Deodorant- I'll keep this simple, how complex can deodorant get?? Basically this is the ONLY deodorant that helps with all the glorious things our armpits do. I love the smell, and even if I do sweat, the smell is very powdery and girly. So I still feel like myself and I don't get self-concious. Side note: I know this is a ridiculous price for deodorant, but when I say I've tried everything, I have! This is my 8th year using this stuff and I'm still in love with it. That has to mean something, right?? (:
10. A Thousand Wishes Perfume- I have been getting so many compliments when I'm wearing this perfume! The smell is heavenly and long lasting! It's from Bath and Body Works! You also have plenty of options if you want the perfume, body mist, lotion, etc. I chose the actual perfume because it has alcohol in it which is what makes it last longer vs. the body mist. I feel like its perfect for all seasons and is appropriate for any event!     

 As of now, these products have truly impressed me. Some of these may not work for you, but I hope you found something that caught your attention and worth giving a try! I would absolutely love your feedback! Maybe even a giveaway on a certain product?? (; Stay tuned!!
