You know, sometimes I just have to celebrate the fact that I got out of bed at all. At least it's Friday and a long weekend. Does anyone have any fun plans? . I chose some different things for my makeup today, though I am just loving the @viseart sultry nude palette more and more. . I mixed a tiny bit of the @rougebunnyrouge illuminator with my foundation to give some extra luminescence. This highlighter is seriously so pretty and has such a beautiful finish. . @burberry blossom blush is just a nice glowy rose flush that gave me the brightness I need to get me through the day. . @lancomeofficial monsieur big is finally back in my life, thanks to a giveaway from @pinkandpeonies. It's a burgundy shade that is super subtle, but I get the slight tint it gives that you can see if you stare at my eyes from an inch away 😅 . I havent used my @patmcgrathreal she's heaven lipstick in a little while so I'm taking it back out. It's such a perfect neutral deep nude but I love how these wear on me.

I thought about doing a pink or red themed post but I dont like pink or Valentine's day so you just get another #motd post instead 😅 . But seriously, I'm not a sentimental person and Valentines Day is just a dull holiday to me. I dont like fresh bouquets of flowers either (unless literally fresh cut from a garden) , and my boyfriend has known from day 1 to never get me flowers. We usually just cook a nice dinner together and and call it a day. . I am loving the @urbandecaycosmetics naked 2 palette again. I think their new palette is kind of a hot mess and I much prefer the original releases. . @narsissist douceaur is one of my favorite neutral blushes, though it really only shows up on me in the winter. . @ctilburymakeup flawless filter is just a permanent love at this point. . I've been wearing the @pytbeauty concealer a lot recently, which is great for spots and blemishes. . I got the @milkmakeup powder over the summer through Influenster and hated it, especially the packaging. It didnt help my oily skin at all, but now that its winter and my skin is drier, it works much better. It still doesnt control oil that well, but I don't notice it as much. . What are your thoughts on Valentines Day?

Over the past month, I've been testing out the @rephr.to brushes I ordered. I got 3 brushes, the 02 flat shader, 03 pencil, and 04 angled cheek brush. I also received the prototype 07 brush for free to test with my order. . After a month or so of using them I remain impressed with the quality of these brushes, as well as with customer service. I also wrote a pretty detailed review of all the brushes up on the blog now! . If you care to read a brush newbie's opinion, go check it out. Im quite new to the Japanese fude world, so I didn't have too much to compare with. But if you want a slightly outsider opinion and review, this will be for you. . Have you tried rephr yet? What are your thoughts?

It's a spectacularly gray day outside and I have too much to do do (and pmsing way too hard) to deal with people, so I'll be cranking away at work from home today. . I still put on makeup when I work from home because it helps put me into "work" mode. Anyone else with me? . I've got a face of easy favorites: A bit of @lauramercier indiscretion @ctilburymakeup lightly applied @burberry gold copper @ctilburymakeup bond girl

Really feeling the warm tones of the @3ce_official palette these past couple of days, and it pairs so well with the @surrattbeauty blush in chaleur. . My skin is at peak winter shade so my @ctilburymakeup flawless filter in #5 is slightly too tan, but if I apply it lightly, it gives me just a bit of warmth that I love. . Other products: @lauramercier tinted moisturizer mixed with @bourjoisparis healthy mix @burberry gold copper @marcjacobsbeauty mocha choco lata . I am so not ready for this week 😴 does anyone else feel like each day needs at least 5 more hours?

This @3ce_official palette is so nice, everyone. It is so cute and compact, but also has all the shades for a work look, day look, or night out - except I never go out so all "night out" looks are just weekend looks for me 😂 . I'm back to using my @narsissist fort de France highlighter, which gives such a natural and intense glow! It works so nicely on top of an already glowy blush, @maccosmetics extra dimension blush in hushed tone. . I've been using the @pytbeauty concealer a lot recently thanks to a couple spots that popped up. I'm extremely lucky in that I dont really get acne anymore (you should have seen me in high school though....) but I still get one or two spots every month. This concealer, true to all of pyt products, is so easy to work with and travel with. It is a harder formula but that means it stays on longer on my skin, imo. It's a bit too drying under my eyes, but it will work in a pinch if i forget my other concealers. . To top it all off, @bitebeauty french press gloss in dirty chai and @urbanoutfitters #uobeauty whiskey noir give me all the warm cozy vibes I need. . Today's an errands day for me, though I honestly am just so tired I wish I could spend all day sleeping 😴 happy Sunday! !
