Ever since KKW Beauty  launched a few years ago, I have heard incredible reviews of their lip liners and was so excited when I had the chance to try them for myself.  These retail for $12 each, which is the most affordable product from KKW and a relatively good price when it comes to a high end brand. They are sold on KKW's website and in-stores and online at Ulta. I bought these when they were 50% off at Ulta a few months ago, which is a great deal and makes it more comparable to drugstore prices.  There are over 40 shades available on the KKW website, ranging from Nudes, Reds, Pinks and Peaches. All of the shades aren't available at Ulta, but they do carry a nice range in store and online.  The names are based on a gradient system correlating with the tone of the shade ranging from 0 to 5, for example I have the shades Nude 2 and Red 4. I haven't really seen any other brands have a system like this when it comes to naming the shades, but it makes it so easy to find...

A few months ago I purchased the KKW Beauty Classic Blossom Palette, and since then, it has become one of my absolute favorite items in my makeup collection! Before I bought this palette, I previously tried a powder highlighter and a lipstick from KKW Beauty's 2019 holiday collection and loved the quality of both, so I was very excited to try another product from the brand!  The Classic Blossom Palette is made up of 10 beautiful primarily pink-toned and berry shades, with a range of finishes.  The theme of this palette is inspired by Kim Kardashian 's daughter, Chicago, as well as Kim's love of cherry blossoms.  This palette retails for $45 on the KKW website, as well as online and in stores at Ulta. I was able to purchase this during a sale at Ulta, so I ended up getting it for less than half the price, so I would definitely keep a look out for any upcoming discounts!  The matte shades are some of the best I have ever used, with the perfect amount of pigm...

My yearly favorites posts have become a tradition on my blog since I started in 2017 and even though in 2020 I didn't wear makeup as often as I usually do, I still want to share some of my favorites of the year! This list is comprised of some old favorites that have been featured in many of my end of the year wrap-ups, as well as new products that I tried for the first time in 2020. I narrowed it down to five products per category to show you the best of the best!

In honor of National Lipstick Day, I'm going to be sharing a list of all of my favorite lipsticks! Out of everything in my makeup collection, lipsticks have always been my favorite thing to collect through the years! Ever since I started my blog in 2017, each year I post an updated list of my favorites, but I usually focused more on my favorite lipstick lines and formulas - to switch it up this year I'm going to dive into the specific shades that I love the most. Some of the products are limited edition and may no longer be sold, but I will be sharing the closest dupe the brand still has available.
