Eddie Funkhouser; First Impressions

It's been absolutely ages since I did a beauty review, so I am pretty pumped to publish my first impressions on a few Eddie Funkhouser products. EF kindly sent me a package last month, you can see my unboxing in my highlights. The box was filled with rocking products including the Decadence eye shadow palette, Ultra Definition Eye Lining Stylus, and a multitude of Molten Metal Matte Lip Creams, keep reading to find out which products were my favorites.

For a little context I saw Avenger's End Game while testing out this makeup look lol. So I put this look through a lot.

I used the Decadence palette for my eye look, while I loved the finished look I used a few matte separates to complete it. This palette is filled with shimmer and glitter shades. Lately I've been going for a very bronzed and sparkly look and this palette fits that routine well.

City Girl Skincare Series| 3 | Sweat Proof, Sunshine Friendly Makeup

After taking a few weeks off from blogging due to work changes, family trips, and just a lack of inspiration I'm back to share more tips in my city girl skincare series.

I'm quickly learning that summers in the city are hot, sweaty, and kind of gross. Most days I'd rather forego makeup, but over the last few week's I've been using FRÉ's Glow Me Tinted Defense Moisturizer. I've been using this since the start of spring, as soon as the sun emerged in NYC. This year I'm really trying to take using an SPF seriously and find it super convenient that this tinted moisturizer contains SPF 15.

City Girl Skincare Series| 2 | DIY Mask Recipe for Congested Pores

My skin has been absolutely thriving on The Better Skin Co. products that I featured in my last post, my skin is smooth and deep breakouts seem to clear up quicker than ever.

I asked on my instagram story if you would like to see more of the 'City Girl Skincare' posts and I decided to make a series of it! These posts will be focused on how I combat environmental stressors/pollution as well as congestion.

It's been a hot minute since I used my holy grail face mask. I have definitely posted about this before but I love using aztec secret indian healing clay, along with ACV to clear my pores and 'reset' my skin. I used to do this weekly, but that tradition fell by the wayside these past few months.

City Girl Skincare Series| 1 | Anti Pollution Skincare Routine

Originally I planned to write a gym bag essentials post focused around cruelty free skincare I of course keep in my gym bag, but I realized that my skin has changed a bit in the past few months and part of that I think is just that I'm getting older, but part of it also has to do with the change in my environment.

In January I began working in NYC, I still live about 1-2 hours (depending on my preferred transportation method) outside of the city-- but after being there 5 days a week I was starting to see a change in my skin.

My skin started transforming earlier this winter (Hello aging) and I rarely have a breakout, however I was experiencing dry patches here and there, as well as an increase in clogged pores. I love using oils so I recently switched to Herbivore's Emerald oil, and use that in place of my moisturizer.
