Enjoy Your Life. Adventurous
Expression of Beauty
It’s that time again! Summer is back, and my annual
list of summer drugstore beauty favorites has returned.
It’s always fun to change up your look with whimsical,
inexpensive makeup products, and summer is the best
season to try a trend that’s outside of your typical comfort
zone.
• Focus on colorful eye makeup with bright shadows like
the ones in this Revolution Reloaded palette. Experiment!
Play! And try some new techniques from your Pinterest

Ban the black and pick up a stick with sparkle.

season. It’s officially out! There are so many fun colors to
try, blues and aquas topping the list. But pinks, whites, and
purples can look stunning on so many eye colors. Get the
