At Beauty Box 5, we try not to play favorites, but at the end of the day, there are certain blogs that we can’t help but sing about, and My Newest Addiction is one of them! Laura is seriously knowledgeable and always gives a fun, in-depth review of products we really want to try.

So, without further ado, meet our Blogger of the Month!

BB5: Tell us a little about your blog!

Laura: Have you ever tried to remember a makeup look you created, but couldn’t think of exactly which colors you combined? My Newest Addiction Beauty Blog started as my makeup diary. I posted pictures of my makeup looks and listed the products. My posts quickly turned into reviews due to readers requesting my opinions on the products I was trying out. I now post mostly about beauty but throw in some fun extra posts about my family and other things from time to time.

BB5: If you could only use three beauty products for the rest of your life, what what they be?
Laura: Only 3? A great cleanser, blush, and mascara.
BB5: Good choices! What are some of your favorite brands?
Laura: My cosmetic tastes range from high end to extremely affordable. My favorite brands include Laura Mercier, Jane Cosmetics, Stila, TATCHA, and Amarte.
BB5: Care to share your favorite thing about Beauty Box 5?
Laura: I love Beauty Box 5 because of the variety of products included in each box. The Nubar nail polish included in the October 2013 box has been my favorite brand/product I’ve discovered the Beauty Box 5! I had never tried it prior and now I own several.
BB5: You. Are. Awesome. Any last words of beauty wisdom?
Sure! If you try something new with your makeup and you don’t like it, don’t just rule it out… revisit it again and you will likely find that you just needed to practice!
Laura’s favorites
  • Lip balm: TATCHA’s “Gold Collection”. It feels so soothing and moisturizing and I feel the effects for hours.
  • Mascara: IT Cosmetics “Hello Lashes” and Jordana “Best Lash Extreme.” They both do a great job at adding volume and length.
  • Eyeliner: The liquid liner from Jane Cosmetics, specifically the one called “Golden Black.” It is black with the most gorgeous gold highlights.
  • Blush: “Lotus Pink" from Laura Mercier. It is the perfect pink and I always feel pretty when wearing it.
