Last Saturday, my mom and I headed over to our local Ulta for their Too Faced & Confessions of a Shopaholic makeover event. I'm a sucker for makeovers and had signed the two of us up a week earlier after I heard the word "free" come out of the cashier's mouth.
When we got there, both of us had the opportunity to choose one of three looks. I chose the everyday-at-the-office smokey eye look since I wanted to learn a little more about how to create one.
Both of our makeup artists were incredibly friendly. Mine gave me a smokey eye with brown shadow, a black shadow liner, and a emerald-green liquid liner on top. After the eye was created, she used Too Faced's Wrinkle Injection cream on my t-zone. I was absolutely amazed at how matte the cream made my shiny nose look! It's always the shiniest part of my face, and as soon as she applied it I knew I had to buy it and make it a part of my routine.

Then she finished my look by filling in my eyebrows, adding some blush and bronzer, as well as their famous Lash Injection mascara, which my mom and I got free samples of after the makeovers were complete. I love this mascara (I still love Chanel and Maybelline more, but this is up there too) and it makes me feel as though I have fake eyelashes on without looking well...fake.

Finally, my artist completed my makeover with this perfect shade of lipstick called "Cupcake"! I always have such a hard time picking a shade that looks good with the rest of my makeup, and as soon as I saw this product, I knew I had to have it as well. (It's even infused with champagne!)
Since I wasn't a huge fan of my final look (all of it was way to heavy for me; I had to wash it off as soon as I got home) I didn't take any after pictures. So instead, here's a before and after picture of me from today.

And there you have it: three of my new favorite beauty products!
