8 products i would, will & need to repurchase haha! These are just some of my faves that I constantly use.
Not in any specific order, by the way. 
1.
I'm obsessed with contouring, so I use the bronzing part of this bad boy every day probably.. I love how it contours. & it's really not as shimmery as it may seem, LOVE IT.
The blush part is cute too, I do use it often.

2.
This would be my go-to quad, because I love golds on my tan skin tone. Clearly I need to repurchase this asap!
But it's very pigmented & super shimmery, love it!

3.
First of all, the website says its $10, but I think it's way cheaper in drugstores, so even better :D
I obviously abused this thing, need a new one, but I like trying new products so i haven't bought it yet. I use this to get the bright under eye effect. It blends flawlessly, and apparently it's also a treatment so yay! The only downside is that there's not much product, it goes pretty quick, so keep that in mind.
Definitely get your hands on this guy if you have dark under eye circles!

4.
My eyelashes are naturally long, so I don't really have a huge collection of mascaras, however, I've tried enough to know what works the best for me. I usually go for dramatic lashes, so I like a mascara that applies a lot of products but doesn't clump or flake. Honestly, one coat of this & you'll get superfab, long, dramatic lashes! Love it!

5.
Again, I think this is way cheaper at drugstores. Here's the thing, I love the sharp look of liquid liners, but I'm just the worst at applying it without messing up and ruining my shadow! I think it's because of my super long lashes that are always in the way! So, I decided to try a gel liner & OMG! So easy to apply & if you're into the sharp eyeliner look like I am, you can build up the product and create the line to be as sharp as you want. I love this product guys!!

6.
So I've been looking for a really good drugstore concealer for bright under eyes effect, and I've been loving this one! I think I'll try this in a shade lighter. But this product blends SO well guys, if you set it properly with powder, it won't crease or smudge at all! And it doesn't hurt that the packaging is super fab!

7.
I know this is really expensive for drugstore makeup lovers, but guys I think I've had this for like 2 years now! This stuff lasts forever and it's the best to set your liquid foundation or even to use on it's own. You can build up the coverage. And I want to cry forever because I hit pan :'( But I will always keep repurchasing this bad boy!

8.
I like to apply a little bit of concealer on my lid, let it dry & then apply this primer. I find this base works fine for me, making my shadow last. I've been using it forever!

Alright guys, that's it for my 8 products I would repurchase! Let me know what products you'd continue repurchasing and how you like the products I mentioned!

Hi dollllls<3 Here's a couple tips to get your makeup lasting all day without creasing or melting off!

First, start with a cleansed face, and then moisturize & prime your face. I use the ELF Studio Mineral Infused Face Primer- $6.00. It may be only $6.00 but I swear on it, it seems like it would be oily, but it really creates a smooth canvas for foundation application, your make up will last!

Then apply your foundation & concealer as you normally would, make sure it's blended of course. And next you need to apply powder to set your makeup. The common mistake people make is to swipe your brush as you apply powder, don't do that!! You're only going to move your foundation and concealer, and smudge everything rather than set it. When you set using a powder, you want to gently pat it in. I promise you'll see a difference! This will make your makeup stay put all day.

After you're done, I suggest using a setting spray. This makes your makeup stay on all day and gives a more natural finish. I use the ELF Studio Makeup Mist & Set- $3.00. High end: Skindinavia Makeup Finishing Spray- $29.00.

Stay tuned for tips! ;)

Let me know how these tips worked for you!! :) xo, Rotem ♥


 Truly apologize for the eyebrows, guys.. growing those bad boys out :)
anyways! Here's another neutral look. I think I'm going to start using liquid liner again.. comes out way darker! I used gel liner here.
I used the Revlon Colorstay 16 Hour Eye Shadow in 505 Decedant.
Stay tuned for more looks dollsss

NYC Smooth Skin Bronzing Face Powder in 720 Sunny -$2.99

New - So packaging is better looking.

E.L.F Studio Contouring Blush & Bronzing Powder - $3.00

Old - so packaging is worn out.



Keep in mind that I use these products to contour, so that is how i'll review them! :)

Packaging: Both of these products are compact, you can keep them in your purse for on the go touch ups!

They both contain mirrors inside, so that's a plus for both.


Shimmer VS Matte: The downside to E.LF is the shimmer! When contouring, you don't want shimmer, but it's very slight so it works for me! The NYC is matte, so that's a plus for NYC.
Long lasting? I found that ELF lasts me all day, whereas NYC lasts only a few hours. However, I do think this is because NYC is a bit light on my tan skin tone.
How it applies? I find that the NYC barely applies on my skin (again, probably because I'm tan).  I did have to go over my face a couple of times to get my desired pigment. Try ELF if you want more definition. ELF applies very well and is very pigmented.
Color: *My hand is darker than my face. However, I still find that the ELF shows up more on me. ELF is more brown, whereas NYC is more orange. I think if you are lighter than me, you should definitely try NYC. If you are more my skin tone, definitely ELF.
Right: ELF
Left: NYC 
Sorry it's kind of blurry guys I'm still getting used to this!
