Top 10 Black Friday Beauty Deals

This is my 3rd year sharing my Black Friday beauty deals, but this year I've done things a little different. Instead of posting random deals and coupon codes, I've rounded up 10 of my favorite beauty websites and shared what I like to think are the best deals. There are some steep discounts on high-end skincare and makeup in this post (I'm talking 25% off Sunday Riley if you play your cards right). And just like always I've added the Ebates cash back rate if the website is offering cash back. If you're not already a member of Ebates, like seriously where have you been? The website is completely free and it's very easy to use online, through the phone app, and also in select physical stores. With just a few clicks of your mouse you'll be able to earn cash back on most of your Black Friday and Cyber Monday purchases. I honestly advise you to get your credit cards and PayPal accounts ready because the savings are coming your way!

Purple and Orange Smokey Eye

This year will be the year that I'll start being a little more daring with my makeup. I don't longer want to be intimidated by colorful eyeshadows, metallic finishes, and things that are considered a bit "out there." I want to play with bright shades, dark colors, and try different makeup techniques. One of those techniques that I wanted to try out is the halo eye. This isn't anything new or particularly groundbreaking, but it is much different to what I usually do with eyeshadow. The beauty about the halo eye is that you can use any eyeshadow combination that you want! I've tried a more subdued version with browns and a metallic gold eyeshadow and the look still came out beautiful. Hopefully this colorful look will inspire some of you to give the halo eye a try.

The Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, and Cyber Monday Haul

Your girl got a bit carried away last week with all the Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals. What can I say? I love saving money on things that I would buy regardless. And the cool thing about this shopping trip is that a few of the places I ordered from were donating a portion of the sales to several worthy causes, which is a win-win situation. In this haul you're going to see a little bit of everything from a toothbrush, to some very fancy shoes that I've been wanting for years. I also got some more derpy pins to add to my very random collection, so if you're on the market for new pins then you might enjoy the three companies that I'll be sharing with you. And like always, it couldn't be a Laura Neuzeth haul without sharing some new makeup products.

Cyber Monday 2016 Beauty Deals

Online shoppers, today is our day to shop! In this post you'll find the best Cyber Monday beauty deals, coupons, and also the Ebates cash back rate. And let me tell you, most of the websites listed raised their cash back percentage, some will even give you more than 10% cash back. If you're not a member of Ebates, then you have to quickly register so you can earn cash back on your Cyber Monday purchases. I advise you to take out your credit cards because there's some amazing beauty deals coming your way. Some of the deals are honestly too good to pass out.

October 2016 Favorites

Last month I predicted that October might be the month that could turn this year around and well... I can safely say that it definitely gave me a brand new outlook on life. This last month was so enjoyable and it allowed me to have so much fun. First of all, my new job at bareMinerals has been absolutely incredible! This last month I also got the opportunity to make new friends and reconnect with one of my oldest friends. As far as makeup goes, I had so much fun playing with more colorful looks thanks to the Juvia's Place The Nubian 2 palette which I recently used in a tutorial. I'm feeling more and more like my old self as time goes on, which is definitely a really good thing.

Fall Makeup Using the Juvia's Place Nubian 2 Palette

After uploading my Top 5 Eyeshadow Palettes post, the requests to recreate my makeup started pouring in on Snapchat and Instagram. I honestly didn't think anyone would comment on my eyeshadow look, but little did I know that you guys were going to love it. This is a much different makeup than what's been circulating on YouTube, so I can definitely see the appeal. For this look I decided to play with plum and pumpkin tones, aka two fall basics. I don't think many people would think of pairing plum tones with a "pumpkin spice" type of color, but I personally think the both colors look amazing together. All the eyeshadows used for this look come from the incredibly affordable Juvia's Place The Nubian 2 palette which I've been obsessed with as of late. 

Top 5 Eyeshadow Palettes

Despite owning a lot of eyeshadow palettes, for some reason I had never dedicated a video to my favorite palettes in my makeup collection. In this post I'm going to be showing you my all-time favorite eyeshadow palettes for every budget and color preference. There're palettes that are a complete steal and others that will be great everyday investments. I even made sure to include options for people who love neutrals and more colorful options, as well as those who prefer matte to shimmer. And as always, you're going to be getting a lot of information in this post and swatches so you know what to expect.
