A Foundation That Made Me Love Myself, And My SELFIE!

Hey there Beauty B's...


I missed you guys. Sorry I have been super quiet for way too long but I have a lot more time on my hands these days during this social distancing. I decided it was time to bring back my blog as it's my passion. So let's kick it off with an article I recently had to write for school for a certification in the Beauty Industry I am working on.

How many times do you browse Instagram and see flawless selfies and yet the foundation the person is wearing somehow does not fit you, or make you love your Selfie or YOURSELF? Throughout my years in the industry I have always struggled as a mixed person to find foundation that truly works for my skin tone without me having to buy a million products. I have heard this from so many people out there and I finally found a brand that caters to that niche. We all have reasons as to why we wear foundation but most of us it’s to cover imperfections that we are shy about. Instead of not loving yourself for the imperfections you have, why not cover yourself and take care of yourself at the same time. That is exactly what the PUR Cosmetics Love Your Selfie Foundation does. The foundation has a large shade rang with over 100 shades available with all different undertones. It also not only is foundation but can double as a universal concealer meaning you have a more uniformed look for those everyday beauty lovers out there. Wait there is more that make this foundation so great. IT actually has skincare infused ingredients to help better those imperfections that you are trying to conceal. Meaning over time you can truly love yourself with and without makeup. This foundation   truly helps you love you and of course those selfies you will be posting on Instagram.

 One great aspect of this foundation is that it is clean beauty. PUR has broken the boundaries that many clean beauty brands have not achieved yet by including darker skin tones in the want for clean beauty products. There are so many foundations out there that are clean but their shade ranges really truly only cater to light, medium, dark. PUR has truly helped many of us out there feel included and not be ashamed of our skin tone and wish it was different so that we could have makeup that caters to us. PUR realized the world is changing and that the need for more shades and clean healthy ingredients is something that is truly needed and they answered the call.

I have owned a million foundations in my life and never have I had one truly make me feel good about myself inside and out. While I still have imperfections and still cover them daily, I have noticed a difference in my skin. I am breaking out less, my skin looks smoother, and over time I have seen an improvement in the dark spots that I am sensitive about. My Instagram photos look amazing and even during a professional shoot for blog that I am partnered with I looked flawless. I get more compliment on my makeup every day and am thankful because without this foundation improving my skin and making me feel better on days that I am low; I don’t think I would love my self nor any SELFIES more than I do now. If you want to join in on the clean beauty, vegan, cruelty free, and USA made beauty brand that wants to include all I challenge you to take the PUR LOVE YOUR SELFIE Foundation for a whirl. The price of the foundation is $36 and can be found at Ulta Beauty, Purcosmetics.com and at select Macy’s. I want to end with saying that while we cover ourselves why not lover ourselves and that is exactly what this foundation will do for you.  

Alright Beauty B's I gotta go......

Oh baby, baby, how was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here?
Oh baby, baby, I shouldn't have let you go
And now you're out of sight, yeah
Show me how want it to be
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now, oh because

My loneliness is killing me (and I)
I must confess I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

Oh baby, baby
The reason I breathe is you
Boy, you got me blinded
Oh, pretty baby
There's nothing that I wouldn't do
It's not the way I planned it
Show me how you want it to be
Tell me, baby, 'cause I need to know now, oh because

My loneliness is killing me (and I)
I must confess I still believe (still believe)
When I'm not with you I lose my mind
Give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time

Oh baby, baby (oh oh)
Oh baby, baby (yeah)

Oh baby, baby, how was I supposed to know?
Oh pretty baby, I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess, that my loneliness is killing me now
Don't you know I still believe
That you will be here
And give me a sign
Hit me, baby, one more time
