TOP 10 | Best of 2017 Skin + Hair
Even though we are well into February already — yikes — I wanted to share my favorite skin and hair care from 2017 because some of these products were truly life changing. Since my skin was so problematic last year I didn't wear much makeup and experimented more with hair care and gentle skin care products. It gave me time to really appreciate the value of great basics and reevaluate what I consider holy grail material!

Burberry Cat Eyes Liner and Full Brows Review, Tutorial
JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser. Reactivate it to view this content.
Burberry released two new dual-ended products for brows and eyes this Fall, and they have quickly become essentials in my everyday routine. As many of you have seen over the years, the winged liner with strong brow combo has become my signature look, which is why Burberry's Cat Eyeliner and Full Brow Brow Tool feel as though they were made for me! I chose a soft matte red lip pairing for a glamorously dramatic edge, which I feel is more appropriate in the fall season.
The liquid pigment of both eyeliner and brow pen are easy to control and the powder ends create versatility and dimension. Although the black liner comes with a dark brown eyeshadow with gold pigment, I find that more wearable and creates structure without making the eyes look smaller. The eyeliner formula is exceptional, as dark and rich as the Tom Ford and longer lasting than the Hourglass. It does not pill and lasts all day. The brow pen is reminiscent of SUQQU's but is easier to control and is offered in the Ebony color which is the perfect blend of grey and brown. The brow powder is also phenomenal, and no brushes are required for application!
As for my base, I am wearing the following:
