Goodbye to Rebel In Pastels and say hello to....

Blonde Aesthetic is something that I have been working on and actually contemplating whether or not to start for quite a while. I haven't been using this blog as much only because, to be frank, I felt somewhat confined to just posting anything "beauty" related. I also had a few doubts with the name and how I wanted to present myself on it. I feel like "Blonde Aesthetic" is me. I am blonde (which is how the name came to me) and I feel like "aesthetic" is beauty and beauty comes in all shapes and forms so I don't have to limit myself to just reviewing and talking about beauty products, but also talking about my life and the beauty that I see through my eyes (and the lens of my phone haha).

I will still keep this blog open to the public but it will remain inactive. Thank you for the loyal following and hopefully you will enjoy reading Blonde Aesthetic as much as I will enjoy writing in it.

“Create your perfect light with this palette featuring three shades of Ambient Lighting Powder, which utilize Photoluminescence Technology to filter out harsh light and refine the appearance of complexion. Each of these high-tech, soft-focus finishing powders recreate an exquisitely flattering light source. The powders can be applied individually or layered to imbue skin with a multidimensional glow” - Hourglass Cosmetics  


Best Of 2014



Wow! Can we first talk about how 2014 is almost over? Looking back at all the memories and amazing times over this past year is always such a joy and that made me think, ‘Why don’t I do the best-of-the-best products that I’ve purchased this past year?’ and with that, this post was born.

These 14 products of 2014 are, in my opinion, the best products I’ve purchased this year and having been incessantly using. Some of them are on the expensive side (and they are worth every penny) while others are drugstore products that work miracles!

But fortunately, it's not overwhelming me anymore so be prepared to get a whole new batch of posts!
Anyway, enough of that, lets get on to my

Rebel's Drug Store Haul + Reviews


Hi hi hi fellow readers and welcome to my first ever Drug Store Haul! I honestly have to say that I should have started this Blog Post idea a looooong time ago. I am a big big fan of getting make up at drug stores and have been purchasing my main make-up from brands like Maybelline (as you all will see soon), Covergirl, L'oreal, etc. I am a strong believer that drug store makeup is just as good as higher brands of makeup, it just depends on what products you're buying. So ladies and gents, lets start my first ever Drug Store Haul!
