Splurge or steal: Toner
How many of us really use Toner?, I have to admit it, I don’t always use Toner. But if you are using the correct toner, it can be very beneficial to your skin.
The purpose of toner was to tighten the skin & shrink your pores, and some toners use alcohols, alcohols dry your skin and when the skin is dry, it becomes tight.
When looking for a toner, find one that is alcohol free or is very low in alcohol, specially if you have dry or sensitive skin. Oil is needed to protect your skin so you don’t want to rid of all of it.
You don’t want to abuse your skin.
These are two amazing Alcohol free toners:
Neutrogena Alcohol-Free Toner 8.5 oz ($7)
This alcohol free toner refreshes your skin without getting rid of the natural oils, it doesn’t dry up your skin and its :
Oil-free
Non-comedogenic (won't clog pores)
Hypoallergenic
Absorbs quickly
Kiehl’s Herbal Extract alcohol free toner ($21-$60)
This toner is is made with herbal extracts and its gentle on all skin types, and Contains no alcohol or harsh synthetic drying agents.
*TIP: When using Toner, its best to spray just a bit on your face then dab w. cotton ball. (you can purchase a small bottle at target or walmart & also use less toner)

NAKED 2: Let's just say there's a whole new way to get Naked!
Urban decay does it again, this is a follow up to their NAKED palette which I love!
this pallete lets you go from a soft look to a sexy Smokey eye.The new Urban Decay Naked 2 colors are listed as follows:
- Foxy- cream bisque with matte finish
- Half Baked- golden-bronze with shimmering finish
- Bootycall- shimmering cork
- Chopper- copper shimmer with silver microglitter
- Tease- creamy pale brown with matte finish
- Snakebite- dark bronze shimmer with metallic base
- Suspect- pale golden beige with shimmering finish
- Pistol- light gray-brown with shimmering finish
- Verve- oyster with shimmering finish
- YDK- cool bronze shimmer with metallic base
- Busted- deep brown with shimmering finish
- Blackout- blackest black with matte finish
This set is already out and much like NAKED it’s a collection of neutrals & black.
Now although the shadows do look a bit similar, they are a bit different; naked 2 has more cool and neutral tones.
