It wasn't until a couple of years ago that I started to really understand the benefit of using a face primer. I always had this idea in my head that using a primer would either make my skin become more oily or cause it to breakout. However, I quickly discovered that isn't the case with some primers. A primer is a base for your foundation that creates a smooth canvas for makeup application. It can help smooth pores, increase longevity in your makeup, and help soften any minor skincare concerns.

The Bell Sleeve Blouse You’ll Wear All Season
The bell sleeve trend is out in full force these days. And I have zero complaints over here. I am loving the exaggerated sleeve! However, I have found that this white bell sleeve blouse is more understated than some of the others I've seen. And for me, that is a good thing. While I love bold prints, ruffles and bows, I find that the simplicity of this white blouse is going to get more wear this season. Pair it with denim or white pants [also worn here] for a classic yet elevated look. ...

I actually ended up loving the two layered together and so wish I would have snapped a photo with the jacket on. ...
