Top 3 Bronzers

I recently filmed and uploaded a video all about my top 3 bronzers that I am loving for the warmer months. These bronzers are great for transitioning our paler skin tone from winter to summer.

Make sure to check out my video here!

Physicians Formula makes some of the best bronzers at drugstore prices. You can always find them on sale at CVS buy one get one 1/2 off or recently at Rite Aid buy one get one FREE!!! This product reminds me a lot of Bobbi Brown's shimmer bricks and Dior's bronzer. I like using this for a subtle wash of color or highlight. The great thing is you can use the shades individually or swirl them together for different looks. 

My favorite makeup artist on set told me about this Bobbi Brown Bronzer in Natural. She told me to use this all over my face for a natural wash of color and pick me up. If i'm lazy and barely have time for anything I'll dust this all over for a bit of color, works great on my eyes too. 

This beloved Jouer bronzer in perfect tan is sadly no longer available. Jouer has a new one called sun tan that is very similar without the spf in it. I rarely hit pan on products, but this bronzer works year round on me and is a grey natural contour shade that works on so many skin tones. 
what are some of your favorite bronzers? Have you tried any of mine?

Physicians Formula Happy

Lately I've been on a Physicians Formula makeup happy kick. Just check out my Monthly Favorites & Lets Play With Makeup videos on my youtube channel.

What's so great about Physicians Formula Makeup is that it's gluten free, sulfate free, parabin free, and something like 90% organic. Now for those who have sensitive skin or who are severely allergic to cosmetic products, this is the brand to give a try.
my goto look lately using physicians formula


I use to have VERY sensitive skin growing up we could never figure out exactly what I was allergic to, but I wish I knew about Physicians Formula back then.

Straight from the website:
Physicians Formula products are formulated for sensitive skin and do not contain PABA, nor over 100 known skin irritants. Our skin products may benefit you because they all offer the claims below:
  • Non-Irritating
  • Non-Greasy
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Dermatologist approved
  • Non-comedogenic


  • This nude wear powder is perfect for setting your super cc+ from the brand. I hated their BB cream, so I'm so happy they came out with the Super CC+ to make up for that. 


  • I'm obsessed with this all in one palette. It's an eyeshadow, bronzer, blush, and highlighter all in one! Talk about convenient for traveling, on the go, or the simplistic women out there.

    Very few drugstore brands have matte quads and even fewer have hi quality ones. When I discovered that Physicians formula has a collection of matte palettes, I freaked out! sadly I could only get my hands on this one. 

    Just look at this happy blush! It's suppose to be fragrances to boost your mood, but I'm happy just looking at this sweet blush. 

    Another product that I'm loving is the sexy boost mascara that some folks just hate, but I swear I can do 3-4 coats of this baby and not clump at all! It doesn't smudge on me and I love the volume it gives my not so voluminous lashes. See this mascara in action when I use it in my videos linked above and here. Also if you have sensitive eyes, this baby will rock your world!

    What are your goto mineral makeups to use? Have you tried Physicians Formula before? What are your thoughts?
