My Celebrity Before & After Photos

I had a moment today where it hit me! Being a mama took me on an adventure from feeling naked if my eyelashes weren't curled to being lucky if I washed my face in the morning. It only takes 10ish minutes to throw on some makeup so I am going to put more of an effort to look nice throughout the week. I feel a lot better to be honest. I don't want to be trapped in a "before" photo anymore.

I am admittedly a makeup hoarder. I used to spend a small fortune on expensive makeup but I have learned the cheap stuff works just the same. I like to buy mine on Amazon because it is soo much cheaper. I use "Subscribe & Save" on anything I can to save even more! My favorites are: 

• Neutrogena Concealer- MUST HAVE to hide my dark circles from chasing a toddler/exhaustion
• Neutrogena Healthy Skin Pressed Powder- Very light and doesn't feel like I am wearing it
• Neutrogena Nourishing Eye Liner- Doesn't smear
• Revlon CustomEyes Shadow- Has a little demo on the back telling you where to put each color to make you feel like you know what you are doing. :) 
• CoverGirl LashBlastFusion Mascara- The BEST mascara. I have tried the expensive and just about every kind! This stuff is amazing!
• Eyelash Curler- Must have!!!
• Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer- I hate feeling stuff on my lips but this is just like chapstick so I can handle it.
• Maybelline New York Fit Me! Blush- I am not picky about blush but this one is a good color.
• Cottonballs for applying makeup because I am ocd and like to use a clean applicator every time. :)

What is your favorite makeup that I should try? I keep hearing that the Naked Urban Decay eyeshadows are EPIC and I may ask for that for my birthday.
