Mommy Needs

So today might have been one of those days, the ones where your hair isn't quite right, you may have gotten dressed in your sleep and your makeup is looking pretty crazy next to your unpainted nails and dry legs. And you could have walked out with a towel in your bra because you ran out of breast pads... Wow, I know I'm a hot mess. As the untamely mommy look took it's rightful place in my schedule today, so did the inspiration for a quick look at my everyday essentials. Maybe you have your own, maybe you don't.. But I thought I'd take a minute to share my beauty (secrets) .. (; No matter what I turn to roughly these 6 things to try and uplift my over all appearance.

1. Clinique dramatically different moisturizng gel, found at any local Macy's department store (; its a MUST! I swear by Clinique, it has totally improved my skin and kept my face soft without the oiliness or thickness. I use it twice a day and it has changed my life. Not an exaggeration.
2.  Big Sexy Hairspray, anyone who knows me, knows I love big poofed hair, next to my poof comb my hairpspray is my favorite. I am a recent convert and use it daily. It smells good and has perfect hold, I also use the root boost foam a couple times a week. These guys know big hair.
3. Fake Bake, my fabulous Uncle Tyson got this for me last year. During my pregnancy I quit tanning and by the time I was due, I was a white fatty. It was perfect for the countdown to birth, giving me a little self esteem boost haha. This self tanner comes with a mit for streakless application and perfect color. I use it on my face all the time and it's perfect for anywhere else on the body also. It has lasted me a long time, SO worth the investment. They have their own website if you want to check it out! (;
4. Bare Essentuals Buxon nude lipgloss, sometimes just a little tinted moisturizer and lipgloss is all you can manage to get ready as a mom. My mom got this for me for Christmas and I take it with my EVERYWHERE. If you ever want good product or to spoil yourself, just go to Sephora. Seriously.
5. Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer now, I dont use this product in my own supply, I found it from a friend. I use a cheaper version because this stuff is quite expensive. If you are a minimum makeup kind of girl this is perfect. It's the best way to lighten your complexion and give you some color on a quick day.
6. CoverGirl LashBlast, I have NO EYELASHES at all. So when I go makeup free, you notice man. A little mascara goes a long way for a girl. This mascara is thick and makes my eyelashes show for the little ones I do have. It's cheap too. I used to use waterproof because it helps hold my lashes better but now I am trying to maintain the small amount of lashes I have left, so I use the regular kind. I would recommend that.  Easily washable.

There you have it, my essentuals for a quick pickerupper (; Happy Blogging! If you have any products you can't live without and would care to share, please do!
