What's In My Makeup Bag!

What's In My Makeup Bag!

Being in the beauty industry and trying to find safe alternatives that really work has been a struggle for years. By the middle of a busy work day my makeup would be running off my face in just a few hours, and I couldn't provide special occasion makeup because I didn't feel comfortable using toxic products, or products that wouldn't last all day. After years of trying to find something I loved, my friend Caitlin introduced me to Limelight by Alcone. She is a health coach, professional makeup artist/esthetician and I completely trust her opinion when it comes to healthy products. All of their products are Professional Grade, Leaping Bunny Certified, and derived from the highest quality ingredients. And the coolest part is that everything is SUPER affordable! :) they also have amazing Organic Skin Care!  

Here is my 5 minute routine! :)

10. Enduring Lip Colors -
if you know me at all, you know I am obsessed with lip color! you will hardly ever catch me running around town without some sort of color on my lips. When switching to non toxic products the hardest thing for me to find was matte long lasting lip colors. Limelight has completely nailed it! These are my favorite. There isn't a shade i haven't loved. The color i'm wearing below is called Macaroon :)
