Beauty Trove's Top 5 for May 2019

Hey Everyone!  Happy Tuesday!  I hope your summer is getting off to a great start.  Sorry I've been MIA for a long time.  I've been dealing with some medical issues and then this past fall one of my family members got really ill and then passed away.  It has been very difficult but I am managing and hopefully better times are coming.

I've been testing out a lot of new makeup lately as well as shopping my stash.  If you're interested in what I have been enjoying in the amazing world of cosmetics, please read on.

1.  Vivid Pigment Palette ($50.00).  This is a magnificent palette.  If you are looking to add more color to your makeup collection, then the Vivid Pigment Palette will not disappoint.  These are matte and bright hues to create a whole colorful look or to just add a pop of color to a neutral eyeshadow.  Don't let the colors fool you, these eyeshadows blend out seamlessly.  I really love the blues and purples in this palette.  The Vivid Pigment Palette will be restocking soon.  I would also check to see if you can get a promo code or wait for a sale to pick this beauty up.

2.  On the Cusp Super Shock Highlighter ($8.00).  Colourpop's super shock formula for highlighters is one of my favorites.  This cream to powder highlighter is perfect for both neutral and colorful eyeshadow looks.  It is simply gorgeous with its golden champagne gleam that can be seen from outer space.  A must have highlighter for the summer.

3. Anastasia Beverly Hill's Lip Gloss in Freya ($16.00).  If you want to create a bit of sparkly to go with your golden goddess makeup, Freya is the way to go.  This ultra shiny gloss has gold and pink sparkles that can be worn on a neutral lipstick or on its own.  It is sure to kick up your cosmetics game.

4.  Pixi MatteLast Liquid Lipstick in Au Naturelle ($14.00).  If you are looking for the perfect rosy nude liquid lipstick, check out Pixi's Au Naturelle.  It is perfect.  Their liquid lipstick formula is comfortable and is not too drying.  It does transfer but liquid lipstick wears nicely and doesn't look strange throughout the day.  It pairs nicely with the ABH freya gloss.

5. Kiehl's Cucumber Herbal Alcohol-Free Toner ($16.00).  Cosmetics work well on a well taken care of face.  I've been using this toner for the last month and totally love it.  Kiehl's cucumber toner gives a slight astringent effect (little bit of tingling) to help tighten powers and pH the skin.  It is great for those with sensitive skin, like me.  I think this will be my main toner from now on.
