First of all, I'd just like to officially announce that I'm combining my beauty and personal blog together, because It's just getting ridiculous keeping track of my countless blogs and websites. I don't think anyone really cares where I post to, so I figured I'd just make the change now.
I'm also working on getting a domain name for this site, so hopefully that will be up soon. And for those of you who are interested, I've added a "To-Do-List" tab to the menu where you can find my Fall To-Do List which will hopefully inspire me to do more blogs and videos.
As for the Lately List series...this will be all the things I'm doing, eating, loving, using lately. There will be a non-beauty list and a beauty list. It all just depends on if I can gather things together. This will replace my monthly favorites videos on my channel for those who watch that.
Now, On to the lately list.

MAC STUDIO FIX+ SKIN REFRESHER/FINISHING MIST
Rating: 4/5
I've got maybe a dozen more uses out of this thing left, but I've been using it in combination with my Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse foundation. For some reason, I love the smell of this stuff. I use it with my Maybelline foundation because it tends to make me a little oily and it's the easiest way to keep it under control all day.
HARD CANDY WELCOME MATTE POWEDER
Rating: 3.5/5
I've been using this on occasion instead my MAC Studio Fix Powder over my foundation. Some of the foundations and BB creams I've been trying lately have been giving me grief with cakey-ness. This powder has been doing a good job at setting without getting cakey.
MAYBELLINE DREAM MATTE MOUSSE FOUNDATION (HONEY BEIGE)
Rating: 4/5
Years ago when I first got into makeup (2009?) this foundation was one of my go-to foundations. I recently rediscovered it at my sister's house. It looks really natural, but gives your face this smooth, flawless look. It doesn't feel like you have anything on either. My only problem with this foundation is that I can't find a perfect match for my skin.
MAYBELLINE DEFINE A BROW
Rating: 4.5/5
This is my new favorite brow product! I love everything about it. The only reason I deducted half a point from it was because I would've preferred a spoolie at the end of it rather than a tiny comb.
REVLON COLORSTAY WHIPPED FOUNDATION (RICH GINGER)
Rating: 4.5/5
By far my new favorite drugstore foundation. It's a gel-like whipped consistency that feels like what I wish some BB creams would feel like. Medium to full flawless coverage. There's nothing bad I can say about the foundation itself. However, it didn't get a perfect score because of the color match. The foundation shade matches me about 95%. It's just a tad bit too pink for me. Nothing too noticeable. Other than that I love it!
INDIVIDUAL FALSIES
3.5/5
I love the look individual falsies give and the fact that they stay on even after you take your makeup off. However, they're so insanely difficult to get on correctly. With practice, these things look like you gave yourself eyelash extensions though.
