Spring 2014 Fashion & Beauty Haul + Update on Fitness & Tieks!

Call me crazy, but I always wish haul videos could be longer! There is so much to show, but alas, I picked only the latest and greatest to share. For added variety, so I decided to update you on some goodies I had purchased before and have been using/wearing — such as my Tieks and Mat Lumiere foundation!

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed in Rose Gold Review, Photos, Swatches

Today I wanted to explore rose gold, which is still very much in trend this Fall. I will focus on Becca's Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed ($38 USD), a creamy powder luminizer that absorbs and reflects light for a superbly natural glow. The texture of this powder is silky and easy to blend. Becca makes some of the most coveted highlighters on the market, so check out the swatches after the jump!
