Summertime makeup routine

I look a hot mess because I have been outside all day (hence the sunburn!) but here is the list of makeup items I use everyday. I have sensitive skin that is mostly dry and I do break out pretty easily. But many of these products have been part of my routine for over a year now and I love them. All products were purchased from Walgreens or Target and prices are approximate if I could not find the exact price and had to look it up.

1. Elf Studio Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20: $3
2. Maybelline Fit Me #120: $7.99
3. Covergirl Trublend Minerals #410: $8
4. Maybelline Super Stay 24 hr concealer in Light Clair: $7.99
5. Rimmel Natural Bronzer in 021 Sun Light: $5.49
6. Wet n Wild blush in Pearlescent Pink: $2.99
7. Wet n Wild Brow and Eyeliner Pencil in Dark brown: $0.99
8. Wet n Wild eyeshadow trio in Walking on Eggshells: $1.99
9. Maybelline Eye Studio eyeliner in Master Drama: $6.49
10. Maybelline Falsies in Black: $5
11. Urban Decay All Nighter Spray: $29 from Sephora--- I know it's crazy expensive but for the summer I LOVE this. It keeps my makeup on so much longer!

Product Review: Garnier Fructis Leave In Conditioner

I have heard a lot about this product but I never went out of my way to purchase it. I found it at Deals for $3 and decided to try it out. I can already tell I won't be repurchasing. It hasn't done anything bad to my hair, but after a week of using it I haven't felt/noticed anything different.

BUT! I should explain my hair type because it may be helpful for other types. I have naturally dry hair and I color it every 7 weeks. So I really need good quality products to keep my hair moisturized. Unfortunately, this product isn't going to be one I keep around. It does smell great but for my hair type it just isn't doing the trick.
