Favorite Summer Beauty Products

Hey Guys!! Happy Friday!! This post is going to be about my favorite beauty products that I love to use all Summer long!! I'm thinking of turning this into a seasonal post.

Tinted Moisturizer

When it starts to get really humid and hot outside, I like to keep it light on my face. I put away my BB cream and other foundations and only use my tinted moisturizer. The only one that I have found in my shade is by Stila. This was $34 but so worth it. It is so lightweight, I forget I have it on. It blends so well with my complexion and gives a nice fresh and flawless look. It also has SPF 20 which is good when you are in the sun. Hopefully I can find another tinted moisturizer that matches me but for now I'll stick with this one.

Bronzer

I just love the glowy, bronze look during the summer. These are two of my favorite bronzers to use during the summer. I have two from Victoria's Secret but I dropped one and it is in pieces :( so I have been using this Mega Glow Bronzer. It has just the right amount of shimmer and just looks amazing. I got this during a Semi Annual sale so I'm not sure if this one is still being sold but they do have great bronzers. When I don't want to wear a shimmer bronzer, I reach for my Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Bronzer in Medium/Deep. This smells just like chocolate and makes me want some every time I use it. I love the color pay off and just how good it looks.

Gold and Bronze Shadows

I love rocking a gold or bronze shadow during the summer. It goes so well with the glowy, bronze look that I love so much. I do use other colors but tend to grab for gold or bronze shadows. These two are Mulch and Amber Lights by Mac.

Bright Polish Colors


I love bright colors and cannot wait until Spring and Summer to wear them on my nails. I always wear bright pink all summer but try to switch up the colors with yellows, blues, corals and other fun colors. I have so many bright nail polish colors to choose from.

Fruity and Floral Scents

When it starts to get warm, I put away my musky, strong scents and bring out my floral and fruity scents. To me, these scents are lighter and perfect for the warm weather and just scream summer.


So that is it for my favorite summer beauty products. What products you do love to use in the summer? Comment below and let me know!!

Okay, I'm going to attempt to get back in the gym. 

I want to cut out sugar but its so hard. I love sweet stuff and still looking for a substitute!!

Since my no buy has been over, I really haven't gone crazy and brought much. I do want to get some stuff off my wish list!!

    I go for gold and bronzy shadows too every Summer. I'm trying to add some color on my eyes lately but I usually stick to these shades when I'm in a rush. Those bronzers are pretty, I still have to try that Too Faced bronzer which everybody loves. Great faves and it is so Summer-y!

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post  here.  I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...
