Hey Youtube Family! It's your girl Lia back again with another video. And today's
video as you can see from the title is my May favorites. Now I haven't done a
favorites video in so long but your girl is back with a favorites video. First I
want to start off by saying I apologize for my absence lately. Now if you guys
have been following me on everything Instagram. Snapchat I've been pretty much ghost
from snapchat. And even if you've been watching my
recent vlogs you guys know I've started my new job and all that and it's just
been a little bit of an adjustment to get used to spending a lot of time at
work and being so focused at work and coming home and then unwinding and
spending time on editing videos. I've been recording videos out the wazoo. Every
Saturday I still sit down like I am right now this Saturday and I film
videos. But editing those videos has been a challenge. Finding the time to edit
those videos has really been a challenge and I am so sorry that I've been missing
in action and I'm so sorry that I normally have been a Monday Wednesday
Friday upload type of a girl. I've been consistent and I always talk about
consistency on YouTube and delivering consistency to your audience to keep
that engagement and I haven't been not doing that so far. Like I said I'm trying
to find that work-life balance right now. It's so funny I made a video a while ago
and I'll probably still upload it about how it was so good at juggling both work and
YouTube at the same time and now now that I started this job because that
video was filmed before I had this job it's not as easy to hold it together. And
I know so many people have more things going on than just job and YouTube. They
have kids. They have husbands. They have families. They have all this other stuff
and somehow they're still able to juggle it and I envy them because I'm still
trying to find that balance. So your girl I'm not gonna say that I'm like
disappearing but just know that that Monday, Wednesday, Friday it's probably
not gonna stay the same. But I'm still gonna consistently put out content. Your
girl hasn't disappeared. You guys every time I post a new video you're like
you're back you're back. I'm not going anywhere. I'm still here but I'll be
uploading more soon. I promise you. I have like four videos of hairs that you guys
haven't seen. You haven't seen my main concept Sassy Curl. You haven't seen my
authentic deep twist. You guys haven't seeing my Outre Kinky Curl. Trendy
tresses. I have trinity tresses in right now Some videos you haven't seen yet but
trust me they're coming your way. So just want to explain my absence or lack of
videos to you guys before I jump right into my favs of this month. Now you guys
are gonna ask me about my hair like I said it's trendy tresses. Now I have not
tried it long enough. It's only been one week with this hair and I'm trying to
juggle whether I want to put it in my favorites category or not. I'm not right
as of yet I'm still like I said trying to determine how I truly feel about this
hair. I think it's a beautiful hair but I have to justify the price tag to my
audience because I like to bring you guys my full thoughts and my true
thoughts on these products. So this hair is not in my favorites of this month but
it is a pretty hair and I just wanted to address the hair cuz I'm gonna get a lot
of what hair is that comment and questions. It's trendy tresses. I took you
guys as advice and I tried trendy tresses. Now for makeup let's get to my
makeup products. Now foundation I have been loving this foundation. I
pretty much have used it half the month of May and it is the NARS natural
radiant long wear foundation. Now oh my goodness you guys have been begging me
to try this and my pocketbook has been like hold on wait girl we gotta wait for
some sales to come through for we spent that kind of coin. So I waited to the
Sephora VIB sale came around this spring finally purchased it and now I
see why you guys wanted me to try this foundation so much. It is my favorite. Now
I don't know whether you guys have seen my review of this or not. I'm wearing it
right now and I'm filming my review today for this foundation. So I don't
know when this is gonna go up in relation to it but you guys will see
fully why I love this foundation so much in my review video. But just to give you
an overview I think I love the coverage of it. I love that it says it's full
coverage. It's really not. It's medium but I love a medium coverage. I love the finish
of it. It's not matte and it's perfect for going into these summer months to
have that natural kind of glow from within because I feel like I'm giving
you guys a glow from within. And it's not just the highlight. I do have on Bobby
Boss highlighter. But I love this foundation like I say review video
coming for it soon. But NARS did they thing. Now switching gears into eyeshadow
palettes. Now I debated and went back and forth with
whether I was gonna buy this palette or not and then finally with the new
Sephora VIB saleI went ahead and made the plunge. Made the decision to purchase and
I'm so glad I did. I don't know why I was holding out so much on this soft glam
palette because these colors are me. Every single color in here is me. Now I think
the reason why I didn't buy it off back was because I owned at least four of
these shades. I mean cyprus umber is in the modern
Renaissance palette as well as I don't know whether it's orange soda or burnt
orange one of these two is also in the Anastasia palette. And I think I own
dusty rose as a single shadow. So I own some of these shades. So I was like do I
really need to spend this but I think you do. It has these two I use as
transition these two I like to use this crease these I use in the outer V and
they have so many lead shade options it's not even funny
so if you're looking for a palette and you you need somebody to say go ahead
pull it pull the trigger on it I'm saying right now pull the trigger on
this palette because it is it it's a must buy so another product I recently
bought I bought all these things at the Sephora vib sell but you guys know I'm
trying to be a less spin Dior makeup type person I really don't buy a lesser
sale going on so I keep everything I want to buy to a minimum and something I
wanted to buy was the Kat Von D tattoo liner now I have it on today I didn't do
a wing I just did a normal kind of thing I like to kind of when I apply my lashes
now I like to do a liner now because it's such an easy guy I one day I'll do
a false lash tutorial if you guys want that let me know down below but if
you're beginner liner really helps get the lashes together and now it's super
quick when you have kind of sort of a base or something to follow but in your
lashes on is so much easier and I think this liner I said in my favorites video
my dearly favorites video I didn't have a favorite liner at that time now I do
now I do Kat Von D liner is $20 but I think it's really worth it it's so easy
so being or friendly it glides on like a dream you don't have to do like a whole
bunch of shake your precision is incredible because it's so thin look how
thin that is like that is thin and it is good so like
I said love this aligner now in terms of primer it's probably been in one of my
favorites videos before I do not care because it's summertime and again and
once again this is my summer go-to primer it's easy in the morning I don't
have time to put no primer in my hand rub it together rub it into my face I'm
a spray and go kind of a girl and I love the spray and go of the primer water now
I'm dry skin I said that in all my videos I'm dry skin so I'm not gonna use
nomads poreless I'm not gonna use any of those kind of poor feeling type of
primers like I don't have huge pores either it's really about applying it for
the moisture I love moisturizer I use my ponds dry skin and going over with my
primer water now some people don't need problem I need it just for hydration and
this is a great primer for hydration so if your dry skin it's worth the price
tag now I feel like a bigger bottle is like $32 maybe like 33 it's not in the
cheapest and you're like it's just water but it's not about this water special
something what they put in this water response which I'm putting this water
because it's good and last but not least is this elf lip plumping cloth now I've
never been a glossy type of girl I love the Anastasia Beverly Hills gilded lip
gloss but that's the only gloss that to date before this point I really owned I
didn't really own any gauss's because I wasn't a gloss fan now I have no lips
I'm team little lips I'm seeing no lips I'm TV where are those lips girl and
this really does plump now it does give you that little tingly sensation but I
feel like my lips do have a little bit of plum pitch to them now maybe it's in
my mind it's imaginary plum pitch but let me live my dreams now this is like
one of the more expensive elf products and saying that it's probably like 5 or
6 dollars but it is worth it I think they have it in three shades or four
shades I own three out of the four shades
it's the gloss for me I'm like I said I'm normally a matte lip type of girl
but this has really broken me out of my shell and it's way cheaper than the
gilded by otter size near Beverly Hills now this has been my favorites if you

instagram make sure you are at Lille Avant 89 I don't know how active I'm
