Friday Favorites #6

one // two // three // four // five // six

1. Spotify Choral Playlist

I love listening to choral music. I find it beautiful and inspiring. I’ve compiled 3 (!!!) hours of some of my favorite choral songs into a Spotify playlist and I’ve been listening to all week. I love to listen to it when I’m working on projects. It’s appropriately named “Choir Nerd”

2. Any Way You Slice It – Kate Spade Pineapple Studs

I love pineapples. I love to eat pineapples. I love the look of pineapples. I love pineapples. And I really want these pineapple studs from Kate Spade.

3. Superstay 24 Color Lipstick in All Day Cherry

I rediscovered this lipstick in my collection and remembered why I loved it in the first place. It’s a wonderful long lasting lipstick in a great blue-toned red.

4. Peppermint Essential Oil

We just turned on our air in my apartment. (as in last night) We’ve been relying on ceiling fans, open windows, and floor fans since April. Last night, it was very humid and we decided enough was enough. But before that decision came, I diluted some peppermint essential oil in some 100% aloe vera gel and cool myself down.

5. Brackets Code Editor

I’ve been using Brackets a lot this week. I’ve used both Sublime Text and Dreamweaver in the past, but I love a lot of features of Brackets. I love how I can split the screen between my HTML and CSS. The live preview is a game changer. No more constant refreshing! Woo! (Although the live preview does stop working if you inspect an element in the browser.)

6. Leah #SheReadsTruth

My roommate sent me this article the other day. There’s a lot of good in this post.

“Friends, hear this truth from God’s Word today: You are God’s masterpiece, created for a purpose (For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them Ephesians 2:10)”

 

 

#staymatteswitch – My (Easter) London Look

I rocked my Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation on Easter Sunday. I’m loving the foundation that I received through Influentser to review!

 

1. Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser – I applied this all over.

2. Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation – I used my foundation brush from Sonia Kashuk (No. 121). I have the foundation in 103 – True Ivory

3. Rimmel Lasting Finish Blush – I use 004 – Tickle Me Pink. This product has been repackaged and renumbered as 140 since I purchased it.

4. – 5. CoverGirl Flamed Out Shadow Pencils – I use Crystal Flame – 305 in the inner corners of my eyes and Hot Pink Flame – 320 on the rest of my lids.

6. L’Oreal Paris Infallible Super Slim Liner – in black, upper lids only! Generally I only apply from outside corners to about 2/3 across.

7. L’Oreal Paris Voluminous Million Lashes Mascara – Upper lashes only!

Other products used:

Rimmel London Professional Eyebrow Pencil

Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara for Lash and Brows

Naked Bee Natural Lip Color – in Plum Orchid

All that and some Lilac Perfume Oil and I was set to go to church in my new dress!

I hope everyone had an amazing Easter! I went on my first Easter egg hunt! Did you do something special for Easter this year?
