January 2017 Beauty Favorites makeup product details and breakdown:

I started with a clean and moisturized face. I primed my face with Milk Makeup Blur Stick to help my makeup last longer. Then using an Artis Oval 10 Brush, I applied NARS Velvet Matte Skin Tint Foundation in “St. Moritz” to even out my skintone. I set my foundation with LORAC POREfection Baked Perfecting Powder in "PF4".

For my brows, I've been filling and shaping them with my go-to brow products: Benefit Cosmetics Goof Proof Brow Pencil and Benefit Cosmetics 3D Browtones. To see my full brow routine, click here to watch my full tutorial.

On my cheeks I've applied the Marc Jacobs Beauty Air Blush in “Flesh & Fantasy” using the Marc Jacobs blush brush. I contoured my face with my favorite, Benefit Hoola Bronzer, and finished off with a little bit of highlight on the high point of my cheeks using Laura Mercier Highlight Powder.

For my eye makeup, I wanted a natural look with a pop of gold on my eyelids. I used the Urban Decay NAKED Basics palette (Crease: Faint, Lids: W.O.S, Highlight: Venus) to create my eye makeup, then created a gold cat-eye with MakeUp ForEver Aqua XL Eye Pencil in ME-42 as my base and pop of color for my black winged cat eye look. I created my usual cat eye with NYX Cosmetics Vinyl Liquid Eyeliner. For my lashes, I used the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara to volumnize my lashes and added some false lashes using Ardell Invisiband Glamour Wispies Black (lovee!).

For my lips, I'm wearing NudeStix Magnetic Matte Lip Color in "Greystone".

On my nails, I'm wearing the new essie Gel Couture Nail Polish in “Lace Me Up” from their Spring 2017 Ballet Inspired Nudes.
