My February Favorites

I'm a little late on bringing to you my February favorites, but better late than never! I'm now at home with my parents for my LAST spring break ever. Hard to believe I'll be a graduate in just 2 months and making my permanent move to the city of dreams, NYC.

February was a month where I really preferred the quick and convenient looks, without having to think too much into what I put on while still knowing it would look good.

Favorite Beauty Gurus: Part 3

If you've been following me for a while, then you are probably familiar with my 'Favorite Beauty Gurus' series: Part 1 & Part 2. It's about that time for an updated list of more beauty bloggers/YouTubers I follow and LOVE!

• Annie Jaffrey
• Twitter: twitter.com/AnnieJaffrey
• Blog: www.anniejaffrey.com
• Annie is by far one of my absolute favorites to date! She lives in NYC, has a Swiss background, and is a very healthy and happy girl. I admire her a lot. Her blog is just as impressive as her channel, so definitely check out both. She just seems very genuine and sincere, which I think is something not everyone can portray immediately online. She has a great sense of city style and enjoys sharing healthy recipes to help other girls be happy with their bodies.

• Ingrid (Miss Glamorazzi)
• Twitter: twitter.com/missglamorazzi
• Facebook: here
• Ingrid is fun to watch due to her peppy personality. She's silly but has great taste in fashion, jewelry, and makeup of course. She's one of the few YouTubers that I've followed who admits to having very oily skin, something that I share with her. Watching her videos will brighten your day, so check out her channel linked above!

• Rachel Talbott (Check In The Mirror)
• Twitter: twitter.com/racheltalbott
• Facebook: here
• Blog: www.checkinthemirror.blogspot.com
• When you watch Rachel's videos, you can only imagine how incredibly sweet and genuine she is. She has experience in the industry and brings forth her knowledge for staying healthy and maintaining good skin. She updates her blog very frequently and is a part of my list of what to browse before going to sleep each night! She also includes fashion/OOTDs into her videos and blog, as well as relationship advice.

• Nikki Phillippi
• Twitter: twitter.com/NikkiPhillippi
• Facebook: here 
• Blog: nikkiphillippi.blogspot.com
• Nikki is good friends with many of the other gurus such as Rachel and Ingrid in this post. She has such an amazing sense of humor and is also very genuine like Rachel. She is unique to YouTube I think due to her background and is very down-to-earth. She also has many blog posts and videos about staying healthy, eating well, and overall taking care of your skin. She suffered with acne in the past and has shared her stories to overcome and maintain better skin. She's also awesome to follow on Instagram, so check her out there too!

Make sure you check out all of these beauty gurus! Who are your favorites?

xx, Ariana

June Favorites!

It's been a while since my last post, but I promise it's only because I've been busy doing great things and blogging on From Sunshine to the City! I also have been saving money and trying not to spend too much on makeup (even though it's proved to be VERY challenging).  

Since my last favorites post in March (I can't believe how long ago that is), there are a few changes! I haven't been switching up my makeup too much since I'm usually in a rush to get to my internship.

Part 2: Favorite Beauty Gurus

One of my most popular posts was where I covered my favorite beauty gurus whose blogs/YouTube channels I follow every day and are my inspiration for my blog and for my personal makeup purchases! I only featured six in that post, but over time, I have a lot more that I'd like to share with all of you. For now, I'll stick to four, but look forward to a 'Part 3' soon!

Favorites: Eye Makeup

This is a continued Favorites post, so I suggest you check out my favorite face products too! I am going to list out each of my favorite eye makeup products by category. These are all of my personal favorites and a few that I have heard rave reviews about and will try once I'm out of the ones I'm currently using! I use my MAC and MUG shadows pretty much everyday, which you can read about in My MAC Palettes post.
