Burberry Eye Colour Contour Eye Smoke and Sculpt Pen Review, Photos, Swatches

Burberry just released the hottest new eyeshadow product called the Eye Colour Contour, and it comes in my favorite form — a retractable pen! These are not your standard range of shades, since they are intended for smoking and sculpting the eyes with precision and ease. I love the mix of brightening neutrals and sultry browns. Check out the swatches after the jump!

Equitance Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36 Review, Photos, Promotion

Southern California weather has been unpredictable, but one thing is still certain – sunscreen is still the most important step in our beauty routine. With every year as we age, the pile of anti-aging creams and potions on our countertops becomes a mountain but sunscreen is the most crucial product in wrinkle prevention.

I have lots of sunscreens that I rotate through, but the Equitance Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36 is one of my favorites because of the formula. It provides just enough moisture for my dehydrated skin, but it never makes me look oily or greasy at the end of the day. It's a great product for those who like to multi-task and cut down on morning routine time since Equitance's sunscreen is a 3-in-1 SPF, brightener, and makeup primer.

A lot of my readers and subscribers tell me they have tried so many heavy sunscreens that end up clogging pores. This Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36 has a matte finish so even those with oily and combination skin types can feel confident wearing it under foundation. Plus, Equitance's key brightening ingredient, Linoleic acid, is also formulated into the sunscreen so you get the benefits of skin care as well as skin protection.

Equitance is offering a Valentine's Day sale! Get 14% off the entire site (excluding two gift sets) plus a free full-size bottle of the Broad Spectrum Sunscreen SPF 36. The promotion will end on Sunday, 2/14 so use code RAEV14 to take advantage of this deal while you still can!

TRAVEL | What's In My Carry-On Bag

And the travel begins!! I will be headed to Bali in a week, so I bought a new carry-on duffle bag because I am committed to traveling as minimally as possible this year. For once, I packed it neatly and organized my skin care, makeup, and accessories into pouches so I figured I would share it! I once used to cram as much product into my carry-on as possible, but in general, I wear less makeup and I finally learned to bring only what I truly need. I hope this inspires you to pack less, too!

HOW TO | Flawless Skin with Burberry ♡ Fresh Glow Fluid Foundation and Cashmere Concealer Reviews + Swatches

The start of this new year has been interesting to say the least. From moving (again) to health and fitness to makeup, I feel that so much of my life has changed, and for the better. My skin is nowhere near perfect, but it improved greatly in 2015 and I am proud of the progress. Since I am finally free of cystic breakouts and purple welts, I love going sheer and weightless when it comes to my base makeup!
