It Cosmetics Miracle Water

#ITGirls #ITGuys and #BeautyBagDolls I am so thrilled to be bringing you a review of the brand new It Cosmetics Miracle Water. It Cosmetics has debuted so many new products this fall and I am so excited to get to try them all and right now my skincare routine is dominated by It Cosmetics products for a good reason. They are just suburb. The It Cosmetics Miracle Water is available on It Cosmetics.com and Sephora.com however to learn more read on.
The Miracle Water is just so good! My skin is left soft and glowing. Perfectly prepped and ready for moisturizer. 

 I am so happy to tell you that this is such a must have in your beauty routine morning and night! This has changed my skin for the better. I immediately noticed that my skin was brighter and softer.  There is not other product like this on the market. I have tried toners and other micellar waters but this one takes the grand prize. It doesn't leave your skin feeling tight, dry or stinging like others on the market. Instead it is filled with ingredients like "anti-aging peptides, hydrolyzed collagen, rose, aloe, rice, chamomile, green tea water, licorice root and vitamin C." The It Cosmetics Miracle Water 3-in-1 Glow Tonic also "combines a skin-brightening radiance booster to enhance radiance, a potent anti-aging treatment essence to reduce the look of lines and wrinkles and restore skin's appearance, and a skin-softening micellar cleanser to gently remove dirt, oil, impurities, and all traces of makeup in one simple step. Perfect for all skin types, this groundbreaking tonic is formulated with Secret Sauce fermented complex: seven key fermented ingredients that work to increase absorbency and maximize the efficacy of your moisturizers and serums." I have sensitive acne prone skin and this truly didn't irritate my skin at all in fact it felt comforting which is why I choose to use it both morning and night. I love using it at nice just to make sure I got off all my makeup which if you use Confidence In a Cleanser you will have no issues. I find that this does indeed prep my skin for my Bye Bye Lines Serum and the my moisturizer which is tough to choose between the new Secret Sauce (review coming soon) or Bye Bye Redness Moisturizer which is what I use every morning, right now I am using Secret Sauce every night. The Miracle Water just preps my skin beautifully leaving it soft and glowing I am so happy I have this in my skincare routine, it is an absolute beauty bag must have and a 5 $$$$$. EXTRA LOVE FROM ANNA is in order!

Shop It Cosmetics.com or Sephora.com because this is exclusive to those two websites.

NOTE: I RECEIVED  It Cosmetics Miracle Water AS A FREE PRODUCT SAMPLE TO TEST AND REVIEW!

I have reviewed several It Cosmetics products so please search It Cosmetics in the search bar to read other reviews

Physicians Formula Butter Blush Murumuru Blush

#BeautyBagDolls if you have been following over the past few years than you know I had a fear of blush that has faded over the years and now I am a huge fan of blush and one big reason is that Physicians Formula has come out with so many beautiful shades and formulas that fit different skin types. The newest formula in blush from Physicians Formula is their Butter Blush Murumuru Blush which is available in two shades Plum Rose and Natural Glow. Both are beautiful shades and plum rose is one I like to wear at night with more of a dramatic nighttime makeup look. The shade Natural Glow is my everyday daytime look and is just as beautiful.
Adding this blush to your makeup routine will awaken you face and your sense of smell!

The shades are amazing and I must say they are noticeable but once you open these the very first thing you will notice is the scent they smell like summer! It is heaven for me on a cold winter day!Physician's Formula Murumuru Butter Blush has an ultra-luxurious formula, infused with Murumuru Butter, delivers a radiant Brazilian goddess glow! Moisturizing wonder features ultra-refined pearl and soft-focus pigments that smooth skin texture, brighten skin tone, and deliver a gorgeous blushing glow. Incredibly soft and ultra-creamy texture combines the best features of a powder and cream blush. It is infused with a powerful blend of Murumuru Butter, Cupuacu Butter and Tucuma Butter, from the lush and nutrient-rich Amazon. Packed with essential fatty acids and pro-vitamins that soften, condition and moisturize skin, leaving it silky soft.

I am in love with this blush and I love the bendability of the formula it truly is game changing (like velvet) and different than any other blush I have tried! This is a beauty bag must have and 5 $$$$$.  I want also let everyone know that these will be available in fine drug stores and mass retailers in March 2017.

Visit Physicians Formula to purchase

NOTE: I RECEIVED THE Physicians Formula Butter Blush Murumuru Blush ( in shades Plum Rose and Natural Glow) AS A FREE PRODUCT SAMPLES TO TEST AND REVIEW!

FYI: I have reviewed several Physicians Formula products so please search Physicians Formula in the search bar to learn more.

    The It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Matte Vol. 2 Romantics Eye Shadow Palette & Brush that I cannot live without! Beauty Bag Must!



    I quickly fell in love with this pallet after using a bunch of different shades over a couple of days. I used the shade Peaceful all over my eyelid then on the lid I used Desire on the outer corner I smudged some Romance and Enchanting to create depth I smudged and blended with a dash of the Devotion shadow to make it look like  different kind of day to night eye. I also used Trust wet to line my eyes and the Transforming Pearl Powder on my brow bone and inner corner to brighten it up and create a lift to my eye area. Now this didn't take me more than 5 minutes to achieve even thought I used several shades because the formulation of these eye shadows are so luxurious. It glides right on without tugging or pulling my eyelids shows up with just one swipe and does not crease even after wearing it all day long. I am so happy that IT Cosmetics includes eyelid loving ingredient's like peptides, collagen, silk and antioxidant because I have super sensitive eyes and like the others the  Naturally Pretty Vol. 2 Romantics  Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette, didn't settle in  fine lines around my eyes and it didn't travel.

    If its no already obvious I give the IT Cosmetics NATURALLY PRETTY VOL. 2 ROMANTICS MATTE LUXE TRANSFORMING EYE SHADOW PALETTE GETS A 5 $$$$$ FOR BEING A CREAMY, HIGHLY PIGMENTED SHADOW THAT DOES NOT TUG WHEN YOU APPLY IT. IT DOESN'T IRRIATE SENSTIVE EYES AND HAS EYE LID LOVING INGREDIANTS LIKE PEPTIDES, COLLAGEN, SILK AND ANTIOXIDANTS.

    It Cosmetics Sunshine In A Compact

    #BeautyBagDolls Sunshine is now in a compact for you to bring with you anywhere! How you ask? Well #ItGirls like myself know that It Cosmetics stand for Innovative Technology and they have managed to make the BEST bronzer out there. This is called It Cosmetics Sunshine In A Compact. It is a Vitality Anti-Aging Matte Bronzer. That's right its a matte bronzer which for me is what I have been searching for my entire life. To learn more and to buy yours visit http://www.itcosmetics.com/
    The perfect matte bronzer that delivers the look of sunshine from a compact! Thanks It Cosmetics for making this my Beauty Bag Must!



    First, I want to say that this compact is huge and can be used on your face and body for the best tan I have ever gotten from a compact ever! It has ingredients like hydrolyzed collagen, peptides, silk and antioxidants while blurring away the look of pores and imperfections. It is also a talc-free matte bronzer that never settles into fine lines and wrinkles. I am so happy that I finally get to ditch the bronzer filled with glitter and shimmer for my new Beauty Bag Must have not only for summer but for year round bronzing. It glides on easily and I enjoy erasing my imperfections by evening using this to contour my jaw line. I had no skin sensitivity and I a love that it is talc free as well as cruelty free. I even corrected some areas I missed with my sunless tanner before a friends wedding and this blended perfectly making my mistake non existent. The It Cosmetics Sunshine In A Compact is just awesome for a lack of better words. I cannot believe I didn't try this sooner! The shade Warmth is just perfection. I give it a 5 $$$$$.

    It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Essentials

    #BeautyBagDolls & #ItGirls you all know who you are you get that feeling of excitement and nervousness when you get home a package is sitting on the steps that has It Cosmetics in it. Excited because its It Cosmetics of course and nervous because the box has the newest products in it from It Cosmetics that you hold to a high standard and let me be the first to tell you my nerves faded quickly when I opened the box because it was filled with my complimentary PR samples that were love at first use. I had to chose one to start with and I picked the It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Essentials Eyeshadow an the must have Heavenly Luxe No-Tug Duel Eyeshdow Brush (No5). These two are the perfect combination to perfect eyeshadow. Learn more and purchase yours here @ http://www.itcosmetics.com/

    This is a perfect palette to use at home and to take with you on the go! It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Essential is a beauty bag must!


    I have reviewed the eye shadows from It Cosmetics in the past, they were the full size ones and they are perfection as you know and this one is a fraction of the size but still packs the same punch! It is not only in an adorable easy to travel with pallet (perfect to take with you on vacation or to tuck into your beauty bag when your on the go) but it has the same amazing anti-aging and skin loving ingredients such as the peptides, hydrolyzed collagen silk and antioxidants. I also am thrilled to say It Cosmetics is developed with plastic surgeons and dermatologists so I know it is good for my sensitive eyes & skin along with being talc free, paraben free and cruelty free.  Now that we got the details out of the way let me tell you about these six amazing matte shades and one transforming Hello Light shade. They are indeed all matte unless you tap your brush into the transforming hello light shade to give it a radiant satin hue. I am in love with all six shades Imagine is a  Matte silk beige, Wonder is a Matte nude khaki, Dream is a Matte desert sand, Passion is a Matte nude taupe, Intrigue is a Matte earthy sepia and Allure is a Matte smoky gray. I am telling you all that I have used all of these shades in so many different ways and don't be intimidated by the two darker shade Intrigue and Allure are amazing and I also enjoy using them as a liner with the duel ended brush it easy to get the perfect line or even to wing it out. The Heavenly Luxe No-Tug Duel eyeshadow brush truly applies these shadows with ease and never tugs my eyelids. This is a brush like not other, in fact it is the holy grail for eyeshadow brushes and I give it a 5 $$$$$ buy yours now @ http://www.itcosmetics.com/heavenly-luxer-no-tugr-dual-eyeshadow-5 As for the eyeshadow it truly stands the test of long wear ( I have been wearing daily for at least 15 hour days) it does not crease and my favorite part is the color pigment truly lasts all day. How I apply it in the morning is exactly how it looks when I got to remove it with ByeBye Makeup(see my previous review of this amazing It Cosmetics makeup removing balm). It also never flakes off and into my eyes because It Cosmetics has nailed the matte shadow field which I LOVE a matte shadow. The easy to travel with pallet is perfect for a day at the beach that turns into dusting on some amazing It Cosmetics Naturally Pretty Essentials Matte Luxe Transforming Eyeshadow Palette for a night out while looking put together and perfect or taking out of your purse for a quick touch up at the office before a huge meeting! This It Cosmetics Natrually Pretty Essentials get a 5 $$$$$ for its staying power and ability to be good for my eyelids while making me feel pretty.
