spring things.

sorry for the silence yesterday, guys--it's been an insane week! i really feel like something is shifting, though; i'm crazy busy but it's all extremely positive. there's a centering, or something, happening.

this post has nothing to do with that. nope, tonight i'm going to talk about one of my favorite things: beauty products! i haven't done a makeup-related post in awhile, and even though i have a fairly simple daily routine (foundation, blush, mascara, lipgloss), i love talking about this stuff. so here are the items i'm swearing by right now:

{ aveeno positively radiant foaming cleanser. gentle enough for my sensitive skin, but cleans thoroughly. }

{ aveeno positively radiant daily moisturizer, spf 15. moisturizing without being greasy, and again--perfect for my sensitive skin. }

{ bare minerals foundation. i'm the palest person known to man, so i wear the lightest shade, but this is like miracle makeup for me. it covers without drying me out, and it doesn't feel like i'm ever wearing makeup. }

{ bare minerals blush in lovely. a perfect pop of color for the cheeks. }

{ maybelline define-a-lash mascara. i'm not a mascara fanatic, but i do like this one. and the green packaging is nice and cheerful. }

{ neutrogena moistureshine lipgloss. i use a shade called "hooked on pink" that i think has been discontinued, but i love the brand--great, saturated color that's a little thicker than your average gloss but still shiny. and of course, i'll always love my cherry chapstick. }

{ organix coconut milk shampoo and conditioner. you guys, i am obsessed with coconut. i love the smell, i love the flavor--and this stuff smells like the real deal, not that plastic-y, faux-coconut scent. yum. }

{ moroccan oil, a.k.a. miracle serum. i first discovered this stuff via emily's blog, and then went home to visit my parents and found a bottle in my mom's medicine cabinet. it's fabulous--it smooths my wavy, humidity-loving hair instantly and it smells fabulous, especially on top of the coconut shampoo. }

so, those are my top beauty picks right now. what are yours? please share--you seriously have no idea how much i love this stuff!
