Spring 2024 Beauty Haul

 

Hey there!

With spring almost upon us (although New York seemed to have missed that memo this weekend; hail and snow ❄) I'm going to share with you some of the beauty products that I am LOVING this season!
There are a lot of drugstore brands in this haul plus some of my favorite brands overall.
So, scroll on for some of my current favorite beauty products and maybe discover your next favorite😊


You can watch a video of my spring haul here





In no particular order:




1. Charlotte Tilbury: On the Go Kit



My favorite brand of the moment is Charlotte Tilbury!
And her products are now available at Ulta.
This little kit is perfect if you want to try some popular products of Charlotte Tilbury's in the sensational 'Pillow Talk' shade.

This kit includes: 
Mini Pillow Talk Eyeliner
Travel Size Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! Mascara
Mini Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk Original
Mini Matte Revolution lipstick in Pillow Talk Original
Mini Matte Beauty Blush Wand in Pillow Talk 

This kit goes for approximately $52 at Ulta.

2. Maybelline: The City Mini Eyeshadow Palette Makeup in Skyscape Dusk



Maybelline's City mini palettes have been around for a while, but this one in Skyscape Dusk is perfect for achieving the ever popular Ballet-Core makeup this spring.
With matte and frost finishes this little palette is affordable and great for creating natural eye looks.
This palette retails for around $8.

3. Maybelline: Expert Wear Eyeshadow in Made for Mocha



Sticking with Maybelline eyeshadows, their Expert Eye singles are great when you need a specific eye color.
This one I picked out for my 90s Nostalgia/Monochromatic tutorial is in the shade Made for Mocha and is a lovely medium matte brown.
This eyeshadow single retails for about $4.

4. Hard Candy: Eye Def Eyeshadow Marker in Pink Ink Metallic



A fun brand that doesn't get enough recognition is Hard Candy.
And their eyeshadow marker is incredible! Long-lasting with great coverage.
This one is a pretty pink shade with a slight metallic finish.
It was absolutely ideal for my Ballet Core look.
This fun shadow stick goes for about $6

5. Wet N Wild: Color Icon Multi Stick in Green


Another fun brand is Wet n Wild Beauty.
This multi-stick in Green is a fantastic way to add a bold pop of color to your makeup routine.
The green shade is one of the color staples in this spring's Mermaid-Core look.
I used it as an eyeliner and it lasted all day; with no running or smudging.
This stick retails for approximately $3.

6. Maybelline: Color Tattoo Longwear Multi-Use Eye Shadow Stix in I am Fearless



Hopping back on the Maybelline scene, this shadow stick is a superstar.
It's smooth and blendable but with expert staying power.
This lavender purple shade has a shimmer finish that adds extra sparkle to eyes and is excellent for creating a Mermaid-Core inspired makeup look.
This shadow stick runs about $8.

7. Maybelline: Master Precise All Day Liquid Eyeliner in Emerald Green



Liquid liner is essential, but colored liquid liner is next level.
Maybelline's Master Precise liner comes in quite a few great shades.
My favorite so far is this emerald green one.
It has almost a jade, matte finish that lasts for hours.
It was the ideal liner for my Mermaid-Core tutorial because it gives great under the sea vibes.
This liner retails for approximately $9

8. Revlon: Super Lustrous Pearl Lipstick in 300 Coffee Bean



I was in need of a brown lipstick for my 90s tutorial.
So, I checked out Wal Mart's website and saw this lipstick from Revlon and knew it was meant to be.
This was perfect for my 90s look and it is a really nice neutral brown for everyday makeup.
Revlon's Super Lustrous Lipsticks come in so many shades.
This one has a pretty pearl finish that I love.
This lipstick goes for around $7

9. Relove by Makeup Revolution: Eye Light Metallic Liquid Eyeshadow in Dazed & Bling


I wanted some bright metallics to really bring my Mermaid look to life.
Enter Eye Light liquid shadows.
These little guys are packed with pigment and iridescent shine.
The teal blue and light purple shades scream Mermaid-Core.
You can use them all over your lids or as a liner (like I did) for a quick pop of shine.
These are so reasonably priced. They retail for approximately $3.

See how to use them as a liner in my Mermaid-Core tutorial 






10. e.l.f. Lip Lacquer in Clear


To really pull off a 90s lip I didn't just need brown lipstick, I needed glossy brown lips.
Fortunately, e.l.f. had my back with this awesome clear gloss.
I put it right over my brown lipstick and it was perfect.
The brown lipstick dyed the applicator, but it hasn't resulted in any color transfer to other lipstick looks.
You can wear this gloss on its own or over other lip colors.
This clear gloss can be yours for about $3.

See how to use it in my 90s Nostalgia tutorial





11. Milani Color Statement Lipstick in Pink Frost



My Ballet-Core look was in serious need of a pretty pink lipstick.
And I found the most perfect shade from Milani.
Pink Frost is a lovely soft pink with a gorgeous shimmery frost finish.
This lipstick is an essential for Ballet-Core and ideal for anyone who loves a pink lip.
Another bonus: it has the scent of watermelon flavored Jolly Rancher Candies. It seriously does.
This pink lipstick costs about $6.

See how to use it in my Ballet-Core tutorial






12. e.l.f.: Putty Blush in Bora Bora



I have become such a fan of this putty blush from e.l.f. 
At first the name made me think 'do I really want to put putty on my face?'
But, it was the right color so I purchased it.
It is an amazing cream blush! You can use just a little for a soft flush or use more for a strong pink blush.
It is not sticky or heavy, it blends like a dream, totally buildable, long-lasting and didn't make me breakout.
I loved it for my Ballet-Core tutorial.
You can pick up this putty blush for around $7.

13. COVERGIRL: Clean Fresh Yummy Lip Gloss in 200 Laugh-Vender & 500 Havana Good Time


These lip glosses from Covergirl are all kinds of cute.
They are extremely hydrating and minimally sticky.
They have a light tint of color to them.
I used Laugh-Vender for my Mermaid-Core tutorial because I wanted a really high shine lip with a purple tint.
They also have a lovely sweet scent that makes me want candy 🍬
These glosses go for about $9 each.

14. Maybelline: Lash Sensational Sky High Mascara in Blue Mist & Burgundy Haze


I just picked up these colored mascaras from Maybelline.
Colored lashes are a big trend this spring, so a grabbed a burgundy and a blue shade.
These mascaras are about $10 each.
Stay tuned for my tutorial using both of these mascaras coming soon!




15. Sephora Favorites Fresh Face Makeup Kit



I am super excited to try the products in this kit from Sephora!
Looking at all these amazing products, I think I will actually use every single one. 
Usually with kits and gift sets there are a couple products I don't use or just give away, but this one has such a great variety.

There are many full-sized items in this kit that makes it a total steal!
This kit is $45 at Sephora and contains:

Danessa Myricks Mini Beauty Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder mini in Universal

16. Charlotte Tilbury: Flawless Look Birthday Set


Because I turned a year older I got to choose a gift with purchase from Sephora.
Of course I chose this little Charlotte Tilbury set (in the VIB and Rouge category).
I'm so excited to try some of her skin care products because I never have before.
And I can never have too many mini Pillow Talk lipsticks!

This set includes:

Matte Revolution Lipstick in Pillow Talk
Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray
Magic Cream Moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid

I'll be reviewing the pieces of this set soon, so stay tuned!





17. Samples Galore


An awesome perk of beauty purchases is you typically get a bunch of beauty samples (so you'll make more beauty purchases).
These are a few of the samples I've received lately:

SEPHORA COLLECTION Rouge Lip Satin in shade 20 Never Enough trial size
Gisou: Honey Infused Hair Oil
Peace Out Instant Pore Perfector
Pat Mcgrath Mattetrance™ Lipstick Flesh 3
