have you tried mented blush yet? ☺️
mented - mented Blush in ‘clay too much’ has been my go-to color during quarantine. it’s so warm and natural - almost like a rosy brown. i feel like it accentuates my skin tone without making me look overly flushed (a look that i save for evenings and more celebratory moments).
mented is one of my favorite brands because they are focused on creating flattering neutrals for all skin tones. their founders are two black women, and you can tell how passionate they are about their work. mented offers four shades of blush - pink, peach, berry, and this rosy brown. they have solid staying power and great pigmentation (since they are designed with darker skin tones in mind).
it retails for $22 on their website, and they have lots of promo codes if you sign up for texts or emails, making it accessible to try their products. i highly recommend!

zoom call makeup 💻💄 with glasses! 👓
i have given up on getting dressed for my daily work zoom calls, but i am trying to put a bit of makeup on my face each day. it keeps my morning routine semi-normal. this is my go-to face, to accentuate my eyes (i wear glasses and have under-eye circles, so i want to be mindful of shadows on my face) and give me a bit of a rosy glow.
(not pictured) fenty hydrating foundation in 420, dabbed on dark spots - i don’t do a full face anymore, but i do try to cover up spots.
URBAN DECAY - Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette (‘trick’ metallic rose shade on lid and ‘blackheart’ black with red glitter shade under eye) - i apply these with my fingers to save time.
mented - mented Blush in ‘clay too much’ on cheeks - LOVE this blush shade.
MAC - Mineralize Skinfinish Highlight Face Powder in ‘gold deposit’ as highlight - to give a little glow on camera.
URBAN DECAY - 24/7 Glide-on Eye Pencil in ‘zero’ + benefit - BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara to define the eyes.
Glossier. - Glossier. Lip Gloss in ‘red’ - gives me a little shine / dresses up the look. we’re talking so much so you want a little something something that stands out!
what are you reaching for in this season??

Perfect bronzer for Brown Skin 🤎
Finally, the perfect bronzer formula for brown girls!
It can be difficult to find a bronzer that matches deeper skin tones, and if you do it can be a bit ashy, or have super chunky glitter that doesn’t look flattering after application. I discovered Mented Cosmetic’s bronzers after trying their lip products and I haven’t looked back.
🤎 The Mented Cosmetics Sunkisser Bronzers come in four shades, and I’ve swatched them for you! Beach bum is super close to my skin tone so it’s a bit hard to see but it’s a nice light bronzer, and Vacay is my perfect bronzer match!
🤎The bronzers are super rich in pigment, but blend like a dream. “Sunkissed” is really the best way to describe them, as they aren’t flat matte colors, but they also don’t have any chunky glitter or anything weird. Just nice pigmented goodness.
🤎 The products are cruelty free, vegan, and have Vitamins A&E. Love that for us!
🤎 I apply for a snatched look right below my blush application with a slender fluffy brush, or all around my cheeks for an everyday bronzey look!
I hope you like it!

Beach Bum Bronzer 🌞
It’s official, the countdown to the last days of summer has started and I do not know how I feel about that just yet ...
But before summer is over let’s talk about my newest bronzer! This is the mented - Mented Bronzer in shade Beach Bum ($22.00). It is their just launched collection that comes with four shades; light bronzer, medium bronzer, deep bronzer, and rich.
These bronzers are vegan, cruelty-free, and are enriched with vitamins A and E! Made in Italy 💁🏻♀️.
I was super lucky to win this bronzer the day they launched on their instagram Live event! I chose the lightest shade of “Beach Bum,” and when they say these shades are buildable they truly mean it!
In my pictures you can see how even a light hand can define the cheekbones and gives you that bronze look. Now I was going for a super light look hence why I did not build and/or contour my face! But I can almost guarantee that it will do a fantastic job when I decide to go for a super full face of makeup.
These days I wear makeup 3-4 days a week when I have to work online and have zoom meetings all day. So I’ve been including this bronzer in my look for the last couple of weeks.
Mented Cosmetics is such an amazing brand that they even ask you to email them picture of yourself when you’re not sure what shade would match you best! That’s a win win in my book 👏🏼. No more second guessing what shade to buy and then return if you’re wrong. Mented is also determined to get ALL women to be able to find a shade that matches them perfectly no matter their skin tone!
Please check them out if you have not before, I promise you won’t regret it! I will continue to support them when I need to restock on more makeup!

💭🖤This foundation is so smooth and natural. I love how lightweight it is. You can wear this all day and its so natural looking. It blends perfectly into the skin. The formula is so amazing. It applies so nicely and is long lasting. You can wear this as a subtle look or build it up for a more glam look. Either way, it looks natural. That's the best part. It also has non-toxic ingredients. 🖤

a light sunday look 😊
this is my most minimal makeup look. i didn’t want to wear a lot since we’ll be hiking today and i’m also deep conditioning my hair, so i know that i’ll be washing it off.
SEPHORA COLLECTION - Bright Future Gel Serum Concealer in “pot de crème” - very good, inexpensive concealer. the color is a good match and it has good staying power once set.
mented - Skin Silk Loose Setting Powder in “medium / deep” - i am just getting into setting powders and i really love the quality of mented products. this is very natural-looking.
URBAN DECAY - 24/7 Glide-on Lip Pencil in “zero” - received this in a sephora gift and i am really impressed! glides on very well. i would definitely purchase a full-sized version.
benefit - BADgal BANG! Volumizing Mascara - this might be my favorite mascara ever! very dark (i like my mascara very black), and seems to lengthen and separate.
Glossier. - Glossier. Lip Gloss in “red” - this is a really good gloss shade for black girls. it is super red in the tube, but is clear / pink-ish on the lips. very shiny and smooth (the texture is really unique), with pretty good staying power.

Soft Matte Lipstick (Vegan Lipstick)
Brand: Mented Cosmetics
Product: Matte Lipstick
Have you ever tried a “nude” lipstick, and it just wasn’t quite right? I discovered Mented Cosmetics a little over a year ago, and their goal is to create nude lipsticks to perfectly match your skin tone.
Their products are non-toxic and vegan.
This is my go-to lipstick because it is a soft matte...for me it’s comfortable without drying out so fast while wearing it. They have a range of matte to semi-matte shades.
