Everything in my makeup bag

October 16, 2015 By Ruthie Ridley 17 Comments

Beauty has never been one of those things that came natural to me! I never was taught, to be honest! My mom was that gorgeous woman that only required a splash of foundation and a little red lipstick! She was/ is flawless! I remember being in middle school, I started shaving my eyebrows and penciling them in with a black pencil, followed by a little black eyeliner on the upper and lower lids! LOL…. moving on to high school, stepping away from the black eyeliner and doing loads of white eyeliner instead… cute! Somewhere along the line I was introduced to Sephora and MAC which brings me to today. 
 It is national beauty month so I wanted to share a little about what is in my make up bag! I keep it just as simple now as a I did then!! Here’s what I got:

 1) Lancome 24 hour wear foundation

2) MAC Studio fix powder

3) NYX full coverage concealer

4) NYX Brown brow pencil

5) Anastasia of beverly hills dip brow

6) Urban Decay Half Baked eye shadow

7) Maybelline “one by one volume express”

8) 3 lipsticks: “Infrared” by Smashbox, “Diva” by MAC, “Black Magic” By Dolce and Gabbana

9) Viva La Juicy perfume

10) Blush ” Gleeful” by MAC

 That is it! Nothing more, nothing less! Simple simple! I am all about quick and easy with my makeup routine! What’s in your makeup bag?! 

My non negotiables a right here:

• “Infrared” by Smashbox, MAC studio fix powder, Lancôme 24 hour wear, NYX concealer, Anastasia of Beverly Hills dip brow  
Sunday makeup right before leading worship 🙂

    It sounds like you’re producing difficulties yourself by attempting to solve this problem rather than seeking at why their can be a difficulty inside very first place

    This is a right weblog for anyone who really wants to learn about this topic. You realize so much its practically not easy to argue on hand (not that I personally would want…HaHa). You actually put a new spin using a topic thats been discussing for decades. Fantastic stuff, just great!

WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WHAT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST MIRACLES YOU HAVE EVER WITNESSED GOD DO IN YOUR LIFE?!✨🫶🏾🕊️❤️‍🔥🙌🏾🙏🏾🤍

I’ll go first!! Earlier this week I was just thinking about how faithful God has been to me over the years! I think we all go through different highs and lows, but it’s so good to stop and look back and remember what God has done! 

Back in 2008 when Ben and I just got married, the market had crashed. I had purchased a home on my own in CT- We lost the house and our cars were repossessed - I honestly felt like we would never recover from that!!! Not to mention, I felt so much failure and shame attached to that season!

Fast-forward to 2019, we begin working with our dear friend  @cody.d.williams  on purchasing our very first home together and he told us all the work that needed to be done with our credit,etc. we took a year and did everything we could to get things right! Not only were we able to purchase our first home together in 2019, but everything from the past was no longer a factor & two years later we were able to purchase an even more magnificent property that we now call home 🏡 

Why was this a miracle for me? I think because I thought we would always be behind & nothing would ever change. We rented for 7+ years before we were able to purchase a home as a married couple and that started to discourage me! 

Just a reminder that little miracles happen everyday and that your worst is never the worst.  God can turn your situation around in a moment!!! The BEST is yet to COME!!! Keep believing ⭐️
