my beauty routine | night out

February 12, 2016

Happy Friday, friends! I have been so looking forward to this weekend, and in celebration of finally reaching it thought I’d put together my current “night out” beauty routine! Truth be told, I usually don’t wear much (if any) makeup day-to-day. But for blog photos and fun dinners with friends, I always have fun getting dolled up. Over time, I’ve narrowed down my routine to some very specific, favorite products. Everything you see below is in my makeup case at this very second, and what I’ll be wearing tonight to welcome the weekend in!

For every product except #1, click directly on the image to shop. Let me know your favorite beauty buys below! I always love trying new things.

    I saw your sunless-tanner review on Snapchat and it looked so good! Although I tan well in the summer, I may have to try it in the winter months when I’m not able to be out in the sun as much.
    Loving posts like these! Please make more!

    I use a lot of these products too! I’ve been looking for a good face sunless tanner, so I might have to give that Rodin + Fields one a shot! Also love the under-eye brightener, that’s always a problem area for me.

      Great Post, Kate!

      I’ve had a lot of questions about a scrub to pair with the sunless tanner, so for Kate’s followers I’m offering a bulk package for $90, which includes a bottle of the wonderful sunless Tanner and our microdermabrasion scrub! It is more than a 10% savings! I will be placing a bulk order and will invoice through PayPal to make it quick and easy!

      Let me know if you’re interested!!! You can always go directly to the link but you only get the savings if I order or if you set up a Preferred Client account.

      Happy Valentines!
