BEST OF...

2016

Can you believe it's already the end of 2016? This year I discovered new and old beauty products, lifestyle items, and even media that I would like to share with you. These were all my go-to's, holy grails, and must haves of 2016. Hope you enjoy! :) 

BEAUTY

• Maybelline Dream Pure BB 8-in-1 Beauty Balm Skin Clearing Perfector

If you have sensitive skin, just like myself, this lightweight BB cream is perfect for you. Not only does it provide you with the perfect amount of coverage, but it contains 2% Salicylic Acid Acne Treatment, which will help clear up any blemishes on your skin. 

• Anastasia Beverely Hills Liquid Lipstick in the color CRUSH 

This long lasting matte liquid lipstick is perfect for any kind of makeup look you are going for.  It applies easily, lasts long, and looks great! 

• REDKEN blonde idol sulfate-free Shampoo 

This next product is for all you blondes out there. If you're constantly dying your hair lighter and getting highlights in it every so often, this shampoo is perfect for you. It's made to protect your hair from any damage that may occur, and leaves you with the softest hair! Smells great too, and who doesn't love clean, smooth, great smelling hair!?

• Herbel Essences NAKED dry shampoo

We all have those days where we wake up lazy, with second day hair, and want to do nothing but throw it up in a messy bun, or give it those loose lazy curls. This dry Shampoo absorbs all the unnecessary oils, and makes your hair look and feel like you put more than a minutes worth of effort into it! 

Misc

• FUJIFILM Instax Mini 8 Instant Camera

Truthfully, having a printed picture in front of you brings great pleasure to many. Today we are so wrapped up in our cell phones, that the only photo albums that still exist are the ones in our camera rolls. This mini polaroid camera is perfect to capture any special moment, and the best part is that you have the physical picture with you, rather than through a screen. This camera has been very popular the past few months, and it is 100% worth the investment. I also have a photo album specifically made for these 2.13" x 3.4"pictures, which is such a convenient way to store all the pictures I take! 

• FitBit Alta

Working 3 jobs, I tend to lose track of time a lot. Not being able to look at my phone for the time can be a constant struggle, when there's no other clock around. That's why the FitBit Alta is the perfect watch for you, if you're constantly running around. Not only does this watch provide the time, but it provides track exercise, sleep patterns, and allows you to set fitness goals for yourself, whether it's daily or weekly. All you have to do is purchase the watch, download the app, and you're all set. Now you'll know how fit you are, when you take part in your daily activities! 

• Shameless

You're lying if you say you don't spend lazy days binge watching Netflix. I know I do, but the only show you'll catch me watching is Shameless. This American comedy series provides a little bit of romance, a little bit of comedy, and LOTS of drama. I spend most nights losing sleep over this, and not only am I obsessed, but so are all my friends! Whether we bond over how Frank is screwing over his family, or what boy Fiona is on to now, we all constantly say how much we love this show. Trust me, once you start watching it, you'll get just as hooked as everyone else. 

Thanks for checking out my favorites of 2016!
