Sona Selects April Edition

Can you believe it’s already April? I guess time flies when you’re having fun! And speaking of fun, I’ve got some fun, new products I’m obsessed with. Last month I shared all my skincare favorites for Sona Selects, so this month I’ll be sharing all my latest makeup favorites. Keep on reading to see what I’m loving this month in the makeup world!

 

1. KKW Beauty Baking Powder ($18)

Have you guys seen my new makeup tutorial using only Kim Kardashian West Beauty products?? I’ve been using the new KKW Baking Powder  in the translucent shade to set the concealer under my eyes and to create a subtle definition before I contour. See why I love it here!

2. Pérsona Cosmetics Cali Glow Highlighter ($24)

Of course, I had to include the new Pérsona Cosemtics Cali Glow Highlighters ’cause they’re AMAZING! Zuma, the medium shade, is the one that compliments my skin tone the best! It gives me the perfect sun-kissed glow and is super versatile. For a bunch of different ways to use Zuma, check out this blog post!

 

3. Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler ($17)

You know I’m all about the eyes, so it’s no surprise that I have four eye products you need to try this month. First off, my all time favorite eyelash curler by Shu Uemura (available on Amazon!!)  Sure, you can probably find a cheaper one, but theres something about THIS one that makes your eyes look that much more dramatic.

4. L’Oréal Telescopic Mascara ($7)

I just found my new favorite drugstore mascara! It’s the L’Oréal Telescopic Mascara, which lengthens, thickens and separates my lashes to perfection.

5. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil ($20)

The next eye product I’ve been obsessed with is the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in the color ‘Alkaline.’ It’s a a deep berry shade with a creamy, soft formula that stays put all day.

6. Diorshow Brow Styler ($29)

And lastly, BROWS. The Diorshow Brow Styler is one of my go-to brow pencils that will seriously take your brows to the next level. It’s a dual ended brow pencil with an ultra-fine pencil on one end and a brush on the other end (read more about my brow must-haves here).

 

7. Too Faced Natural Nudes Lipstick ($22)

Lately, I’ve been super into nude lips and have found two new favorites this month! One of my newest faves is from the Too Faced Natural Nudes Collection. The collection comes in 10 nude shades and they’re seriously all gorgeous, but I’m definitely loving the shade ‘Skinny Dippin’‘ the most!

8. L’Oréal Colour Riche Shine Lipstick

On the more affordable end, I’m digging the  L’Oréal Colour Riche Shine Lipsticks. For nudes, ‘Glossy Fawn’ and ‘Dazzling Doe’ are definitely the ones you should try! They’re super rich and hydrating too, which makes them great for everyday wear.

    I am thankful you share all your goodies with us (makeup, skin, clothes, etc.) I value your opinion!!! It helps me a lot. My new product of the month I love ( well, besides my identity palette and my Zuma) is the Catrice liquid camouflage concealer. It’s what $7. I LOVE it. It’s not drying and blends and covers like a dream. ??have you tried it ? Thanks again for you.

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 2:13 pm

      Omg you’re so sweet all the time love. There’s no better feeling than finding a new makeup item that you love. :) It sounds amazing!

  • ReplyLusine NaljayanApril 5, 2018 at 11:54 am

    I don’t mean to be biased because you’re my fave blogger buttttt, I am literally OBSESSED with the #identitypalette and #caliglow Zuma highlighter!!! I wear them almost every single day, even for work (I work nightshift as a nurse). My patients and coworkers always tell me I’m glowing and if I’m pregnant! Lol, I tell them, it’s Zuma!!! Lol. I really like the UD glide on eyeliner. I have yet to try the others. Love all your input and feedbacks. Thank you for always sharing <3. #Sonafam #24hrclub

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 2:14 pm

      Lol, this seriously made my day! I’m so happy you’re loving your pérsona products, it makes me so happy! Love ya babe.

  • ReplyAna Karina CahueApril 5, 2018 at 2:13 pm

    I’m in the hunt for a new eye lash curler, My lashes are naturally very straight and I find it annoying when some curlers leave the outer lashes looking kind of droopy. I will give this one a go!

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 3:05 pm

      This Shu Uemura one is AMAZING. Let me know how you like it!

  • ReplyDeirdreApril 5, 2018 at 2:27 pm

    L’Oréal Telescopic has been one of my faves for a few years now.

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 10, 2018 at 11:56 am

      Really?! You’re on it. It works so amazing for the price!

  • ReplyElanaApril 5, 2018 at 2:28 pm

    Thanks for sharing – Need to order your highlighter – looks so pretty and the l’oreal lipstick looks promising!

  • ReplyAlexandraApril 5, 2018 at 2:37 pm

    Would you recommend the urban decay eyeliner formula? I need a black liner for everyday makeup.. any suggestions? Thanks! Love your blog!

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 3:09 pm

      Yeah babe, I am loving this eyeliner right now! The formula is so soft. :)

  • ReplyOlivia GarciaApril 5, 2018 at 2:44 pm

    I have almost everything you’ve mentioned, but I definitely NEED Zuma in my life! I’m waiting for my fun money on my budget next month so that I can get it. :D

    My favorite blog, by far!

  • ReplyMaureen KedzieApril 5, 2018 at 4:03 pm

    I’m so excited about this post! I haven’t tried the majority of the products and I’m really interested in giving some of these a go. I love my Cali glow highlighter, and use it most days of the week! I’m also loving the Clarins Instant Light Lip Balm Perfector in rosewood. It’s such a pretty nude color! But im almost out. I’m so excited about your recommendations I may have to try both! #24hrclub

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 10, 2018 at 1:10 pm

      Aww I’m so glad you love your #CaliGlow and I’m excited to see what you think of these products, let me know how you like them babe. Xx

  • ReplySummerApril 5, 2018 at 5:27 pm

    I have been using L’Oréal Telescopic mascara for quite some time. It is great for getting right into the roots of your lashes because of the skinny wand. It also works on the lower lashes in distributing the mascara quite nicely. I cannot be without Revlon undereye dark circle eraser. It not only conceals but it will brighten the under eye region as well. I also love L’Oréal concealer crayon in fair. Awesome concealer!!! I enjoy your tutorials & blogs, Sona.

  • ReplyCamillieApril 5, 2018 at 5:50 pm

    I want to try the too faced lipstick! Thanks for always sharing what real works of makeup! Xoxo ?

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 3:12 pm

      It’s so gorge and it smells SO yummy! I’m basically obsessed!

  • ReplyLa Bijoux Bella | by miaApril 5, 2018 at 6:33 pm

    This post reminds me there are sooo many things in here that I needed to purchase. The first thing is perhaps the Dior brow styling pencil … love ♥️ it!
    Very little very featured products.

    I’m actually really digging my Coty air spun powder. I used to use the Laura Mercier translucent powder but was looking for something cheaper. This does a great job of setting my makeup and keeping me matte ??

  • ReplyCindy JimenezApril 5, 2018 at 7:05 pm

    Ooh trying out that telescopic mascara now, been needing a new one. Plus it’s BOGO half off at Ulta. Thanks for the tip!

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 3:13 pm

      That’s amazing babe! It’s one of my favorite new drugstore mascaras! Let me know how you like it. :)

  • ReplyMaria RodriguezApril 5, 2018 at 7:31 pm

  • ReplyLeticia NavarroApril 5, 2018 at 9:34 pm

    Wow, they all look amazing!! Would love to try them all but shooting for your highlighter ? Thanks for sharing!

  • ReplyShivangi mittalApril 5, 2018 at 9:46 pm

    There are so many products , I wish I could get my hand on !

  • ReplySafia QammarApril 6, 2018 at 3:43 am

    Amazing products. I’m in love with a peachy pink shade. It’s by a national make-up brand here in my country. I’m loving it, it’s best for spring and summer.

  • ReplyMonicaApril 6, 2018 at 7:06 am

    I wanna definitely give the dior browstyler a try.. I already have full brows but just some sparse area at my arch which could use some filling in.. I’m loving the cover fx setting powder which works like a dream for me..?

    • ReplySimplySonaApril 9, 2018 at 3:18 pm

      I’m so glad you’re loving that CoverGirl powder, it works wonders! And so happy you’re loving your Zuma too. Love ya babe.

    Oh man! So many great products!!! I swatched the new TooFaced lipstick the other day at Ulta! It felt so creamy! I loved the one in pout about it! It looked gorgeous!!! Loved this post!!!! ???

  • ReplyPamelaApril 12, 2018 at 9:02 pm

    If Sona says that a product is good.. then a product is REALLY good! I want to try the l’Oreal mascara and I NEED the Shu Uemura. Here in Italy it’s spring and the temperature is rising, so my make up will be all about the eyes.
    Thank you for the post, mia bellissima, you’re the best ❤?

  • ReplyYasmin SamimiApril 18, 2018 at 7:04 pm

    I have and I use the urban decay eye pencil its sooo good, I want to try your highlighters (Zuma) and the Dior brow pencil.
    Thanks for sharing , you’re the best xx

  • ReplyKrisztina CliftonApril 20, 2018 at 8:01 am

    Beautiful picks! That highlighter and lipstick look gorgeous!! I’m curious to try the L’Oreal mascara…that brand never lets me down!
