Private vs Public relationships
Kicking off (pun is intended) my new relationship section of Khaurafab, I wanted to introduce the latest celebrity couple, Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. These relationship rumors started a few months ago but were confirmed when Taylor showed up at a Kansas City Chiefs game a few weeks ago. If you are anything like me and don’t understand football, I won’t explain anything football-related today—only the relationship details, what we know, and what I think about this relationship.
She has been to three games in his section and is usually always with Mama Kelce, his mother. If you didn’t know, Taylor is an Eagles fan, and Jason Kelce, Travis’s brother, plays for them. Making this football family a bit complicated but closer than ever. The brothers share a podcast called “New Heights Show,” where they discuss the topic of Taylor. He was open about some parts of the relationship but, of course, kept a lot of details private. We know that Taylor is private in her past relationships, but in this new relationship, she seems more public than ever. Many people wonder if she is really as private in her relationships or if it is the guys she’s been with.
Public or Private?
I don’t know everything about Taylor Swift, her relationships, or what’s going on in her life. However, this new relationship makes me think about Public vs Private relationships. Celebrity or not, people still experience these private and public relationships, which is an important topic when you are with someone. How does your partner feel about posting and being in public with you? Based on different scenarios, you can see where they are and whether that aligns with your morals.
Taylor and Travis are public figures, so their discussion of relationships is different. I am happy she is in an excellent, public but private, supportive relationship. We all deserve someone who shares morals and wants the same things as you. They most likely sat down and discussed how they wanted their relationship to work and how it would be public vs private. They need to do this in their professions, but I think it’s also a great question to ask your partner.
How do they feel about posting? Personally, I am a private person in terms of the relationships I care about. That doesn’t mean that posting is off the table; it’s more like it is not something I want to do ALL THE TIME, and I am not the type of person to make birthday posts and stuff like that. Or at least not significant displays of that. That’s me personally, but you may be different. Some people want to be posted all the time and to have someone to post all the time. It’s essential to be on the same page about some of these or let it be known how you maturely feel about these things.
Have you guys been seen out together?
Have you been seen out together as a couple? If not, that could be something to look out for. Being with someone who doesn’t want to be seen with you is alarming. If you guys are sneaking around, never seeing the light of day…maybe start to go out with them in a different setting. If you want more from someone, you must let them know and make sure you think of yourself. If they don’t want to be seen out in public with you, it’s something you should discuss; what are their intentions? Maybe neither of you wants anyone to know, and that’s fine. If one of you wants to be seen outside and the other doesn’t, you need to find things to do together and see if they are comfortable going or have a conversation about it.
I will discuss relationships in more detail soon, so make sure you follow the social media for Khaurafab and the newsletter.
The biggest style trends to know for 2023
The biggest style trends to come in 2023, all from ready-to-wear predictions. Each style trend can be dressed up or down and is a great way to make your style stand out.
The new year is almost here, so let’s look at some of the top fashion trends you are going to see in the year 2023. Make sure you are following the Khaurafab social medias so you can also see how to style these pieces.
denim is always the way
Marie Serre
I have said this in so many articles, so many trend predictions, and many videos, denim trends are everything! If you thought a denim jacket and jeans combo was a big trend a while back, you won’t believe the influx of attire made from denim in the next year. I have seen so many different ways to wear denim pieces and I don’t see this stopping anytime soon.
Fringe
Bottega Veneta
This prediction is coming straight from the runway, I saw so much fringe on the runways during fashion week. You can read some of my articles from fashion week linked in the button below, or you can simply watch some of the fashion shows during fashion month. Fringe was everywhere, I think this is due to fashion trends rotating, such as the roaring 20’s. Definitely start incorporating fringe skirts and dresses this spring.
Cargo
Cargo pants are making a come back, many of my favorite fashion It girls, including me, have been opting in for a cargo moment. This trend is also very close to the denim look we will be seeing, we will see cargo pants more often but then more and more people will begin to take this into their own hands. Meaning if you see a cargo bag, skirts, corsets, and shirts. You heard it from me first.
Heavy Cargos will also be big, heavy cargos give a different shape to your outfit and gives this cool girl look. Everyone loves the big pants, little shirt combo and this will be going no where. You can also wear a tight shirt or some type of biker or racer jacket with this cargo trend.
No Pants!
Kendall Jenner’s instagram
Ditch the pants in 2023! Many celebrities and influencers have been opting for this pants less style. They have also been on the runways time and time again. You can copy this style of the pants less look, tights, and heels. Or you could also wear items like leatards, skorts, and more.
Not your mom’s capri pants
Givenchy 2023 ready to wear collection
I feel like capri pants have only been worn by a select group of people for a while, moms and some of the outlier kids at school. Honestly, many people I know made fun of the look but this former 2000’s trend is back!
Please know that I will be adding to this article throughout the week/ month until New Years and maybe into early 2023. More exciting trends and styles to come so be sure you are subscribed to the newsletter to receive notification of any changes. Have a great holiday if you celebrate!
XOXO,

Getting the Hailey Bieber glaze donut look
Get the Hailey Bieber glazed donut look with the products in this article. It’s time to get the glazed, clear, Hailey Bieber glowy skin. Every product she uses is linked along with a description of how she uses them.
Hailey Rhode Baldwin Beiber is known for her “glazed donut” skin. She has the perfect, clear, glazed skin, and I know just the products to achieve it. These products are of course more attainable for everyday people and use.
After cleansing her face with a product I am not yet sure of, she uses a liquid toner. According to her Vouge video , she uses the Environ Skin EssentiA (AVST) Botanical Infused Moisturising Toner.
Next she uses the peptide glazing fluid from her brand Rhode. I personally just got the serum and am very impressed by its performance. I am going to use it for a bit longer and see if it continues to improve my skin, but so far, I really enjoy it.
She also uses the Rhode barrier restore cream followed by the dieux skin eye masks before starting her makeup routine.
Hailey also uses her lip peptide treatment, which is another product I have tried and enjoyed so far. All of these products seem to give her the glazed look but I have a few products I personally love that I also think give a great glaze look.
All of the products she uses are all linked on my storefront to shop plus direct links to Hailey Beiber’s brand rhode.

Closet essentials for every season
There are just somethings you need in your closet to build out your outfits. No matter what season you can always use these items to create a cute, stylish outfit.
The perfect white tee
A white tee or tank goes with everything and you can make any kind of outfit with this. Dress it up, down, or use it to layer. The white tank is very versatile for day to day, my favorite way to style a white tank for street wear is with a pair of baggy jeans, a sneaker, and some accessories that stand out. A cool sneaker or boot goes great too. My Favorite white tank is linked below, its a cotton tee that is similar to the one above. It is a great affordable piece to add you your closet.
“Cool Jeans”
I love a cute jean but especially a baggy or straight jean. I try to invest in good quality jeans because it is one of those items that you can’t live without. A good pair of jeans last a long time and while all of the products on this list are closet essentials I feel like jeans are one of my biggest investments in my closet. I linked where I get my favorite jeans but I have more suggestions on my instagram also linked with the jeans. Your first pair with them is also $50 off which is a great deal.
The body Suit
My obsession with body suits started in the beginning of my style journey. While it started with cheap, ba quality Forever 21 body suits I have now leaned into a good quality body suit. I buy mine from SKIMS and if you see some of my vlogs you’ll notice I wears skims often in general. They are comfy, stretchy, and good quality. I would definitely buy a body suit so you can make some cute, comfy outfits.
Shoes that compliment you and recieve compliments from others
I have many, many shoes. While I would not say I am obsessed I have surely gone through a lot of them and I know which ones I actually use of the daily.
A white or black sneaker
A cute boot
and I think you should always have a nice pair of heels just in case
This is the more minimalistic approach to buying shoes but when you are just building out your closet these are the shoes that compliment an outfit the most while still being able to make them fun. I for one love getting some of my more fun shoes from Steve Madden, because they are so cute and a more affordable luxury option.
White sneakers are a classic but if I have to see another pair of dirty white airforces ill throw up! There are a lot of different options, some pf which are still simple and versatile without being so predictable. For example I love the Club C 85 Vintage Shoes from reebok. I think it is still a safe shoe option and comes in different colors. Its also more affordable than air forces, its a great buy and has lasted me a really long time. I have nothing but positive things to say about the shoe.
Sundresses
having a few dresses wether sun dress or just some casual dresses can be a great asset to your wardrobe. You can look cute, dress it down or up, and wear it for different occasions. Everyone knows about the little black dress wardrobe rule and while I agree with this I would also add something a little more flowy to the mix. A dress with some flow makes it so you can mix and match with day and night looks even more. Add a heavier/ darker jacket for night and leave it be during the day. If you want more detailed styling tips you can always ask me on @Khaurafab on instagram. Or request a video on styling on the Khaurafab YouTube.
The accessories
A bag, some jewelry, or maybe a belt. Accessorizing will always make your outfit pop way more, no matter what season or time. Check out small shops on Etsy, mejuri, Jenny bird, and my amazon store to find cute versatile pieces.
The Impressive dating history of Pete Davidson
Pete Davidson has recently been known for dating some of the most famous, beautiful, and business-savvy women. Some of which you may not know he dated! Here is my list of these impressive women he has dated, as well as his dating timeline.
We all known Pete Davidson for a few things SNL and dating some of the most beautiful, smart, A list celebrity women. From singers, actors, and models he dates such amazing women that its just something he has become known for. While I can’t list everyone he has dated, I can list the most popular and known of his relationship.
2018- Ariana Grande
Pete Davidson and Ariana Grande
Starting the list off strong, Ariana Grande! At the end of 2018, after announcing his break up from Cazzie Davis the daughter of Larry Davis, they announced their relationship. At the time Ariana was also out of a relationship with Mac Miller, so the two out of the relationship was a shock however we love to see it. Not only did they date but were briefly engaged after only weeks into dating. They then called off the engagement for reasons I am not 100% sure of, in October 2018. On the bright side though, we got the song Pete Davidson from Ariana and we all know that was a hit. So much so that Davidson referenced it on SNL.
2019- Kate Beckinsale
Pete davidson and Kate Beckinsale
Pete Davidson and Kate Beckinsale began dating in early 2019 and created lots of press due to a few things. Their PDA, 20- year age gap, and the fact that he was only 3 years older than her daughter didn’t help. With Beckinsale being in the public eye for a while you would think nothing could get to her but apparently she could not take the press that came with the relationship, but only had positive things to say about him and they split within a couple of months.
Also 2019- Margaret Qualley
Pete Davidson and Margaret Qualley
Margaret Qualley and Davidson began dating in August 2019 as she was promoting her new movie. The two had a great summer fling however by the time October rolled around the relationship ended. However that was not the end for his relationships that October.
October 2019- Kaia Gerber
Pete Davidson and Kaia Gerber
He did not hesitate in time to find someone new, that same October he was seen many times with Kaia Gerber, the daughter of Cindy Crawford. The up and coming super model and Pete Davidson were seen all over Miami until about January of 2020. Due to Pete Davidson’s mental health on the decline and other factors the two split. He also said (and I am paraphrasing) that she was very young, he was going through a lot, and it wasn’t a good time to get into anything. This was reportable before he had checked himself into rehab.
2020 Olivia O’Brien
Olivia O’Brien
While the two didn’t actually date she has been liked to him. He apparently reached out in October of 2020 but she was seeing someone at the time. She talks about this on the BFF’s podcast and only had positive things to say about him.
2021- Phoebe Dynevor
Phoebe Dynevor and Pete Davidson
Not only was Phoebe Dynevor getting media attention for her role in Brigerton but she had begun being seen around with Pete Davidson. Rumors began to arise when they began flying back and forth England and NY to spend time with each other. This relationship was confirmed during a zoom call where he was asked about his celebrity crush and he said he was already with her. They continued to go and visit each other but after 5 months the couple split due to the distance between them.
2022- Kim Kardashian
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson
Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson was a shock to some. Due to her recent divorce to Kanye West this relationship caused a bit of controversy, however through this they seemed to be a very strong and positive couple. They were seen on public outfings, on Kim’s instagram, and with Kim’s children who seemed to take a liking to him. This was another age difference relationship though and while they personally haven’t confirmed all the reasons for the breakup some say it was due to the distance and demanding work schedules. So the couple split after 9 months.
Late 2022- Emily Ratajkowski
Emrata
Though this relationship has not been confirmed yet sources have seen the pair out and about in New York. Emily Ratajkowski also known as Emrata recently split from her husband after cheating allegations leaving her single a single mother in New York and honestly, we are living for her vibe recently. The super model and author has also started a podcast “High-Lows” and has been sharing a bit more of her life and other topics, so hopefully we can get a bit of confirmation soon. I think that if this is a true relationship I am very happy for the two and wish them the best.

How to Dress like Emma Chamberlain
Emma Chamberlain is a style Icon of our generation for her personality, and wonderful sense of style. In this article, I break down her style and share with you how you can incorporate her style with yours.
with my new series all about dressing like your favorite celebrities and influencers I decided to let my following on Khaurafab decide who’s style I would do an analysis on. The Khaurafab instagram choose Emma Chamberlain. Recent style in the last years has many different hints of aesthetics and as she has gone up in fashion, we have taken her in as an “icon”. She is a great style inspiration, trendsetter, and a now very established person in fashion. She has now been invited to MET galas, Emmy after parties, and award shows, and was even on the cover of Australian Vogue earlier this year. Because of her great accomplishments as a creator and style influence I wanted to break down her style from casual to the runway.
Home wear
When Emma Chamberlain is in her casual comfy space she likes to keep it cute and casual with sweets and a hoodie. In her own home, she will usually sport these while making tik-toks for her brand chamberlain coffee. She even wears her brand’s sweaters as well but for the most part, her home attire is always comfy and continues to stay in her main color schemes of dark green, creams, and yellows.
Casual Emma
A casual outfit of Emma Chamberlin seems to consist of a few key parts. Not only does her main color scheme come into play but she will almost always be seen in a loafer. This is her main shoe style and it has been for a few years now. She also avidly wears things like sweaters, collared shirts, and some sort of baggier/straight-legged bottoms. She follows a certain aesthetic and I think this is what makes her outfits seem so consistent, and fashionable, but also something attainable. Because her casual outfits are based on key elements, she is more able to make these huge fashion trends as they are things we can buy easily. The trends she partakes in and popularizes can also feel more timeless so when you are buying a pair of loafers, for example, this isn’t just a trend that will come and go. You are investing in a timeless piece, that makes fashionable outfits, while still being a part of this trend.
Classy Chamberlin
A more classy look for Emma comes out during events such as parties, trips, award shows, and the MET Gala. She is usually styled by Luis Vitton and her more frequent jewelry is Cartier. However recently she has been styled by other brands, one example being Loewe. Which really matches the funner part of her style aesthetic.
In conclusion
Her style has consisted of a few key things
A more casual and relatable style and energy
Colors such as yellow, dark green, white, and creams. I also noticed that she will usually add another color to the aesthetic and her clothing for a period of time but then switch it.
For example Earlier this year I noticed she was leaning more towards reds, this analysis is based on her instagram feed from around February/march of 2022 to May and then we see more blues and whites make it into the feed.
To dress like/ dress similar to the style trendsetter Emma Chamberlain you can incorporate a few things.
Loafers
long white socks
polos
Loose jeans, mom jeans, or any type of loose pants
Jackets like puffers and cardigans

How to dress like Bella Hadid
How to dress like a Cool girl and supermodel Bella Hadid. In this guide, I lay out the most used items she wears, where she purchases her items and the way to style like her. Read this to get that Bella Hadid style and more celebrity style guides coming soon on Khaurafab.com on Wednesdays at 12pm est.
On this new series in the Khaurafab blog its time to learn how to dress like your favorite style Icons such as Bella Hadid. We know her as one of the biggest super models out there and the epitome of the Model off duty aesthetic. while I have written about the Model off duty look before, this is specific to Bella Hadid, her most worn pieces and how to dress like her no matter what you look like.
Making it match
Get the Bella look by studying some of her more iconic street wear looks such as the one above. In this she is seen wearing a very cool, fashionable outfit that matches in colors and shapes. A big thing in style is matching things based on shades, different colors, and the silhouette you want to make. In this she wears all matching shades of green, making it a cool monochromatic look. She also wears a bomber jacket and a long skirt. The reason this matches is that they both have the sort of baggy feel like makes outfits look so unique and trendy. She also styled them with brown lensed glasses, pairing nicely with the colors she’s already wearing , and a black boot. All of these match perfectly with these earthy tones she’s going for, making it stylish and eye catching.
Where to find something unique
Look for something no one else has- Or at least that they probably won't . Bella Hadid loves thrifting and has said this many times. By thrifting you can find unique pieces, vintage pieces, and a lot of luxury designs for a cheaper price. I have thrifted many times and found some really cool pieces that were cheaper, different, and better for the environment rather than buying everything fast fashion. Thrifting can be hard sometimes and does take a bit of time, but its a great past time, but is worth the time and energy when you find an amazing item.
Hair we are
Putting together an outfit can look so much better with a cool hairstyle. Hadid does different hair styles all the time that are fun and stylish. They don’t even have to take a long time, you can find a lot of hair inspiration on Pinterest or tiktok, I actually have an entire board of unique hair styles on @Khaurafab Pinterest that you can try out.
The shoe essentials
I see a bit of a pattern in all of her outfits but the most attainable one may be some of these shoe styles. While she has a large variety, there are just some that she wears often in every day life. She frequents a sneaker, loafers, a boot during the winter, and a pair of kitten heels. These are all great shoes that are comfortable and yet can be so very stylish. If you want to keep is simplistic with the shoes I would suggest going for them in black, white, and neutrals so they can be worn multiple times with many outfits.
Match your Acsessoies
A little bit more accessories can go a very long way. This relates to the other tips in the beginning of the article, by accessorizing correctly with tones and colors that match your outfit, your style elevates. A cute pair of glasses, a matching purse, or juts some simple jewelry can be great to pair with any outfit.
A lot of her outfits are so great because she follows color patterns, has great taste, and owns good pieces. She also has many clothing items that are unique and stand out, making it so each thing she wears makes her street wear so much more elevated. I have a lot of style videos on her and other style Icons as well on the Khaurafab social medias. You can find them on the linked buttons below. Hope you found this article entertaining, have a wonderful day and stay Fab!

Best celebrity Halloween costumes of 2022
This Halloween stars went all out with their costumes, photo shoots, and parties! Though it was had to decide on the best I highlighted some of my favs of Halloween 2022.
This Halloweekend has been like no other, this year the costumes have been getting real creative. Even the celebrity costumes are getting more extravagant with multiple costumes, photo shoots, and glam teams on stand by. This Halloween is sure to be part of the bests.
A costume that gave me a spooky surprise had to be Kylie Jenner as the Bride of Frankenstein. Her photo shoot recreating the movies posters was creative and detailed. Jenner wore a Jean Paul dress in this picture. Though she had many Frankenstein outfit changes in this shoot.
Not every costume this Halloweekend has been a fright, we also has people like Lizzo in this Marge Simpson costume. The star did a truly amazing job with this cartoon costume.
We love a pop culture reference! Lori Harvey as Beyoncé in the ‘me myself and I” music video
Speaking of pop culture, many remember when Lady Gaga preformed her song ‘paparazzi’ while she fake bled out on stage. The moment was iconic and it was about time for it to be recreated. Addison Rae showcased her recreation on Instagram this Halloweekend and it’s amazing.
Another Jenner had a great costume this year, she shared the picture below on Instagram and I can’t help but notice…Is her red hair back?! She dressed up as Jessie from Toy Story and is having another red moment. While I’m a bit biased of this costume since I’m going as Buzz light year, I am loving this!
Bringing the costumes back in the Kar-Jenner family with the many Kim Kardashian costumes, specifically her kids . This year Kim Kardashian dressed her kids as 90s Rap and R&B icons and these photos are just as iconic.
Keke Palmer is Rapunsel is the newest posts. Along with dressing the part she shared her own version of the character in a skit posted on Instagram. The inspiration from this was from popular request and she delivered.
Chloe Cherry has been doing many editorials since being on Euphoria. She continues that trend with her Jessica Rabbit look.
After seeing all these costumes I’m beginning to think this list is going to be way too long! So I have to end it with 2 more amazing costumes. Pdiddy as the joker had to be at the top! Not only did her do an entire photo shoot but according to other celebs he stayed in character all night.
And again I have to shed light on Kylie Jenner because the costumes this year were insane! Not only did we get bride of Frankenstein, the Elvira, and now the space series below!
Hope you had a happy Halloween! Make sure to subscribe to the newsletter to be alerted when more articles are out! 💖

How to minimize Bloating
I know that we all suffer from bloating at some point or another. So this article is all about how to de-bloat and depuff. These are some of my best-used and most effective tools.
Bloating can really mess up your mood and outfit so in this article I will tell you ways to debloat at home easily. These tips are all really great to debloat fast and keep yourself well and less irritated.
A Morning stretch
A morning stretch can not only the the simplest way to help you unbolt in the morning but it helps your mental health too. A morning stretch is super beneficial for your body and it leads to a better routine, a great start to your day, and can help with the rest of your debloat.
The debloat massage
When you search for other remedies for bloating you will find some videos on how to massage your stomach in a certain way to debloat. While I do find that these work I would say that any type of gentle message on your stomach for about a minute or so can help as well.
Irritation
I get a great deal of irritation from certain foods and a lot of people have similar food irritations. Some don’t even notice how an irritating food can bloat you to the max. The most common foods that can bloat you would be dairy products and gluten. I know that it can be hard to take these foods out of your diet but it can be very beneficial in more than one way. I don’t eat meat and consume less dairy and my stomach has felt so much better. Then when I don’t eat gluten I feel and look even better. If you have anything that you would find irritating or would like to take the steps in reducing dairy or gluten its a great step to take. As well as a great step to other wellness and health practices.
My debloat tea
I make a specific tea blend that warms my stomach and debloats. My tea blend also has a lot of benefits for women’s health and you can find me making these teas in the mornings on @Khaurafab on Instagram. Tea is so great, comforting, and soothing for the stomach.

How to minimize heat damage to your hair
Heat damage can leave you with split ends, brittle hair, and future hair growth issues. I straightened my hair the first time when I was five years old but the times I was putting heat on my hair increased when I got to middle school. I would straighten my curly hair every couple of months and would put the most amount of heat possible on my hair. My hair became uneven, brittle, and evidently damaged. On top of that, I began bleaching my hair. With all this damage I am surprised with my hair growth and volume now, all because I found out some of the best ways to keep my hair healthy and happy even while putting heat on it.
Hair Prep
1) Just like you would prep your skin for makeup, prepping your skin for styling is as important. Before straightening your hair, especially if you intend to keep it straightened for a while make sure to wash and condition the hair properly. Washing the hair and making it nice and clean will help prevent build up.
2) Deep condition your hair and wash it out properly before as well. Deep conditioning can give the moisture and softness your hair will need before going through any damage. Also making sure the hair is fully detangled is best.
3) I usually put in a heat protectant through out my hair…I pretty much satiate it in a heat product and spray before hand. Making sure there is heat protectant is a great asset to your hair health. Please, if you take anything from my advice, Heat protectant is so important. I mean everything from this list is important advice but heat protectant is a really great tool to use.
Also make sure your hair isn’t wet when straightening either. Its not okay! Blow dry your hair with a brush until dry! If you need a step by step there will be a video posted on the Khaurafab YouTube channel soon after this article is posted.
Heat setting
A lot of people including me at times, use a very high heat setting to make sure that their hair is pin straight. I have to let you know though, that it is not worth it. Depending on your hair texture and the level of damage on your hair you should go away from that. For reference I have thicker curly hair and the maximum heat I will go to is about 375 degrees .I used to go over 400 degrees but that heat will make the hair practically fry, especially if you are using hot tools more frequently. If you are going from curly hair to straight I would say you can go 375 and if you are touching your hair up or straightening it daily lower the temperature.
Using less heat styling
Styling your hair with heat is always a risk so implementing heatless styles whenever you can is very important. You can get heatless curls with Satin curling rods, curlers, or my favorite , braiding your hair over night. Heatless options for your hair will always be the best way to avoid heat damage and minimizing the heat as well as how often this heat is used.
After heat
One of my favorite things to do after using all that heat on my hair is reversing it. This may not make any sense but I am about to explain my process in the best way I can. After I blow dry and then straighten my hair I will usually try to cool my hair down by lightly blow drying my hair on the cool setting. If I am going out with this hair I will simply cool down my hair and then go out but if I am going to sleep or stay inside, I do my same cooling method and then set it. Using satin products, this makes sure the hair doesn’t get frizzy and keeps its moisture and shine. The reason I cool down my hair is to close the hair follicles. After, I will Oil the ends of my hair too.

Five Big Fall Fashion trends 2022
These five Fall trends are everything you are going to see this fall, winter, and in 2023. All of these trends are confirmed by what I have seen on the runway and on the streets.
Fall Fashion is amazing because of the vibe, aesthetic, and the transition into the winter months. Layering clothes becomes more and more prominent, and fall colors are every where! I am about to list five, but throughout fall and winter I will be posting non stop fashion and style inspiration.
1) New Denim
Denim isn’t just about your jeans, I have been seeing so much more denim on denim and new jean trends. While I have already wrote about denim trends in an earlier article, I am here to say it again because it is just so prevalent. I like to use runway examples because they really show so much of what’s to come. So not only have I been seeing more denim from smaller designers, but also in recent runway shows that leads me to believe that not only is this a fall fashion trend but that this will extend into multiple seasons this year and next.
2) The baggier the better
If you thought we were going back into skinny jeans soon, you’d be mistaken. While I do think that there will be some tighter styles to be seen, the fashion world still loves a bigger pant. Not just jeans but bringing in some business pants, diffrent textures and colors is everything this fall.
3) Fuzzy
Every year around fall and winter we attain some type of fuzzy or fluffy obsession. These seasons are so cozy, that you just want to be wrapped up in something soft and comforting. This year, I’m feeling a fuzzy bag vibe. Not only have I seen it around, but as enthusiast, I can admit I have been on this trend for a while. Since summer I have been carrying around a fuzzy, yellow Marc Jacobs bag that you can see in many of my posts. It is in The Marc Jacobs tote bag collection, and while I am in love with this fuzzy bag I will be trading my yellow to a fall color.
4) A forever favorite…UGGS
We just can’t get enough of UGGS recently especially platform Uggs. I have been seeing everyone wearing these and I even decided to give in the other day and buy a pair only to find out that not only were they sold out , I would be waitlisted until December. The popularity of those boots is growing more than it has before, for the comfort, look, and vibe that these shoes give off.
5) Silver Sunnies
The metallic sun glasses trend is everywhere and in my opinion this trend is another that started in summer. This started with the dad glasses trend and the metallic Prada glasses everywhere, not only that but we are in a certain time where we are not only more into fashion, but into more unique and creative pieces. So when brands like Balenciaga and Prada are making new types of attire and accessories, we watch on and create a more accessible trend. Which is why we are so obsessed with the dupes. I want to say I have seen these glasses everywhere! Especially on Instagram and TikTok.

The Importance of Exfoliating your skin
Exfoliation is a great step to incorporate into a routine and in this article, I talk a bit about it. The reason you should exfoliate, what, and how much It has helped the different parts of my skin. For information on the products I use, you can find them on the Khaurafab-approved section of the website.
Exfoliation can be one of those things that really changes the texture of your skin in the best way possible. I am about to list all the reasons and best ways to exfoliate your skin for the best results. I have used these exfoliation methods and have seen great results in my skin, whether on my face or body.
Benefits & Exfoliates
When some people think of exfoliation they think of those exfoliating beads in cleansers or other harsh products for your face. Exfoliating daily, especially with things like these exfoliation beads can actually have negative effects on your skin. You need a more gentle option for everyday use or every other day, like a liquid exfoliate. A liquid exfoliate will do the same great things like get rid of dead skin and promote the stimulation of collagen, which is exactly what we need.
When you exfoliate you are getting rid of dead skin cells, unclog your pores, and even your skin tone and texture. By clearing dead skin cells you also allow more absorption of of your skin care routine in to your skin. Along with that the motions you make while exfoliating can help with the production of collagen, making improvements in texture and pumping the skin. You can also get great results by doing a deep exfoliate every week or so to extend the results. If you have issues in texture or dullness, exfoliating can be a great step to add in your routine.
Body exfoliates
I have always struggled with having these little red bumps on my arms and I knew I needed to fix them. They had made me very insecure so I began to take the correct steps to fixing it, this included using a quality body exfoliate on my shoulders and upper arms every 2-3 days. By doing this the dead skin cells and texture began to melt away, but with that the skin can also become dry which is exactly why I used a hydrating lotion to bring back the moisture and not the texture.
This goes for other parts of the body as well, using a scrub on areas you want to shave before shaving can make the part of your body so much smoother afterwards. The exfoliating removes the dead skin and build up so when you shave it is cleaner, smoother, and gives softer results. You can give your skin even more silky smooth results by using lotions and body serums after. Skin care isn’t just for your face, but your body. Its important to take care of every inch of this and a proper routine can be so beneficial.
where to find quality products to exfoliate
The benefits of exfoliation are great but to find some products that are Khaurafab approved you can check out the “Khaurafab Approved” section of this website where you can find products I have loved and tested. Each product I list on my site is always linked for your convenience and if there is ever a product I feel I can’t live without, or some sort of sale I am always posting them on my instagram @Khaurafab. You can also find more in depth video content on the Khaurafab Youtube channel, all linked below. Thanks for reading and sharing, all the products I love for exfoliation will be out on 10/8/22 and there should be a YouTube video out on 10/7/22.

Crucial Hair care tips
My best hair advice for healthy, moisturized, and longer hair. All of these methods have been used by me before and are from my experience and hair care journey. My hair is longer and stronger now, thanks to these hair care tips and more tips coming soon.
Keeping hair healthy is so important, and so is building a good hair routine. We are always so adamant about building a good skincare routine that sometimes we neglect other wellness routines, like hair health. Here are my greatest…my most crucial hair care tips. Along with hair tips you can also find my favorite curly hair products on my post-10/1 12pm est.
1) Finding the right products
Figure out your hair texture and pattern whether its straight, wavy, curly, coiled…
Do some research on what type of products are best for your hair, you can also do this by following Khaurafab’s socials and the newsletter
2)Sleeping in satin
Sleeping with a satin pillow case or even satin sheets (Satin sheets and pillow cases are amazing for skin too)
Wearing a bonnet or satin head scarf can help with frizz as well as retaining moisture. Any satin or silk products will help retain the moisture in your hair.
Using a satin curling rod can give great properties while giving you great heatless curls in the morning.
3) Use hair oil to massage the scalp
On a nice clean scalp get a quality hair oil possibly jojoba, argon oil, or something of the sort
Massage the oil into your scalp with your fingers, to make the effects better try to hold your head tilted down for a few second while you lightly massage the scalp.
This should promote more hair growth as well as making you calmer
4) Avoiding heat
I know a lot of people say this but its true. Stop using heat on your hair!!! I have gone almost 6 months without straightening my hair and I have seen so much improvement. My hair is longer, healthier, softer and bouncier.
5) Create a routine based on the following
How oily or dry is your hair? Very oily means washing your hair more often while Dry hair means washing your hair less.
What are your hair goals? growth, volume, moisture…
Start to put some masks in your hair for your hair goals and convert your products to your hair goals
More tips on beauty, fashion, style, wellness, and more are all here on Khaurafab.com and on the Khaurafab social medias. Everything you need content related is linked below. Remember that on 10/1/22 you can find some of my tested and favored curly hair products and brands.
The return of the Tumblr era
The Tumblr era an attitude is coming back in a few different ways but why and how? In this mini article I begin to discuss how this era is returning.
Around early 2014 Tumblr reached its peak and people were making around 100 million posts a day. While Tumblr seemed like just a social media platform, many remember Tumblr as more of an aesthetic or era now. The platform was mostly used by 2014 teens and had a certain “grunge aesthetic” if you will, though this wasn’t the only aesthetic going on at the time I can confidently say that people hold on more to this rather than a lot of other types of content on Tumblr. The reason I say that Tumblr is having a comeback is based on what Ive been seeing in our everyday social media apps.
We have seen time and time again the need for nostalgia in fashion and media. We like to take trends and reinvent them into more modern ways because of the fashion cycle along with like I said before, nostalgia. Since we are going through so many micro trends, the fashion cycle is moving evidently faster meaning media will as well. I think I have seen hundreds of videos now about a “better time” or a “simpler” time in the 2010’s and while we can all agree it was just around the corner, it is getting an early comeback in certain ways.
The first was musically, the return of arctic monkeys, a new Taylor swift album, and a Carly Rae Jepsen album screams 2012-16. Specifically it is hinting at that Tumblr era I have been talking about. More and more artists that were popular in this era are coming back, a big indication of this return.
Social media has become a bit, saturated, instagram is no longer casual and fun. This has been a commonly acknowledged thing, since many people including celebrities have commented on the shift in social media platforms. Instagram is no longer what it was, people just want to have fun on the app and be able to interact with their friends. Instagram has also been shifting to more of a video platform, this isn’t desirable to many because this certain type of content is being pushed out more. The app, along with many others, has not been the same and people miss that. While Instagram will not change its algorithms, people want the old Instagram back, they want that casual posting era. We are going to see more people using Instagram as they would Tumblr, more people using cameras (not on their phones), and straying away from posts that feel “forced”. More people want to be real, to the point where every one is even using an app called, Be real. On this app you can only post at a certain, random time and it comes from the front and back camera. Everyone wants to feel real and genuine and this is what we are going to get from media.
Fashion wise, things are coming back but differently. For example, ballet flats are making a comeback, not to say that it was ever fully out. Most people attributed the trend for ballet flats to these feminine, cottage core, coquette aesthetics and while I agree…I could also say that it came back to many other areas of the fashion cycle. The trend cycle is moving faster an faster and that means that we will be seeing trends from everywhere come back no matter what era but we will all notice them getting faster and faster. So think back to the trend of that time and you will being noticing more and more people using these trends in everyday fashion. They will however be curated into their own, more modern, ways. Each style pattern that comes back won’t be the same but it will be similar. For example, middle parts will come back, just maybe not that dramatic swooped one that covered everyone’s entire face.
The Tumblr era is all about that grungy, genuine, fun kind of look. We are incorporating more and more of these things now. Each trend in media and fashion will be directed from that Era and come back in new an different ways. We are beginning to incorporate more casual posting, blurry photos, darker eye makeup, and the grunge look I’ve been talking about. I will be talking more about the fashion trends to be seen with this very soon so make sure to stay active with Khaurafab as to not miss out on anything !

New York Fashion Week 2022
For each day of fashion week, I wrote about each of the most iconic shows and a bit of what I saw in them. This means trend predictions on color, silhouettes, and more. Read more to find out just what I saw.
There are many reasons I love fall, specifically September. Not only is it my birthday on the 8th but the next day, September 9th, is the first day of New York fashion week. Each year I get the joy of celebrating a new year, and designers new collections. This year some fashion milestones were hit as well such as Fendi celebrating 25 years of the Baguette bag. For these reasons I just HAD to talk about my absolute favorite New York Fashion Week moments.
On the first day of New York fashion week we got to see so much from Fendi as it was the 25th anniversary of their most iconic bag, The Baguette bag. In this show we saw a lot more than your regular collection, and there was a good reasoning for that according to The official Fendi account where I found this quote “ ‘I didn’t want to do a traditional ‘collection’ for the anniversary, rather it’s a celebration of a time, of the moment the Baguette became famous” shared Artistic Director of Womenswear Kim Jones ahead of last night’s unforgettable show. This show was artistic, the runway was large and had many different sharp turns. The models glided from each angle and square of the runway with grace and attitude, while giving the attire life. This collaboration with Marc Jacobs, part of it included many common things in Marc Jacobs collections such as large fur hats, monograms, platforms, and more. I loved everything about this show down to the collection, trends, and excitation which is why it is apart of my favorites of fashion week.
Fendi Resort 2023, New York fashion week 2022
On the second day of fashion week I was in awe of Sergio Hudson’s spring show. I think that the colors used in the collection, along with many of the other color schemes seen in fashion week are very pleasing to the eye. As seen in the collection there was a lot of this green or chartreuse, along with electric blues and a pumpkin shade of orange. Along with this I saw many dresses and blazers, which makes me think of a more fashionable business kind of look in which I have been seeing a lot of. Based on the patterns I am seeing within the past two days of fashion week I think we will be seeing many of these colors coming into our wardrobes along with seeing more and more of these business type silhouettes.

The third day, was going to be show stopping rain or shine, and this time it was rain. The Tommy Hilfigure Show was held in the rain, creating a dramatically artistic, dramatic ambience. Models like Ashley Graham, Julia Fox, Amelia Gray Hamlin, and Lila Moss strutted the runway in this school girl/ Andy Warhol inspired attire. Many primary colors and many layered clothes , making each piece more and more visually pleasing. As well as having the bold colors on the runway, there was also a new monogram design used in the new collection. The patterns used in this collection leads me back to thinking we will be seeing more aesthetics like grunge, school girl, and business casual come up. Alone with this we will continue to step out of this “clean girl” or “neutrals” look and bring more bold outfits to the light.
Tommy Factory Fall/winter 2022/2023 at New York Fashion week 2022
The first ever Vogue World 9/12/22 , a moment to remember as they celebrated 130 years of Vogue. Out of all the shows during fashion week, this was my all time favorite. It was not like your normal fashion week show. There were no serious faces strutting the runway, they were smiles and laughter. Along with this there were many shows entwined… Lil Nas x preformed, they were dancers, and the models made the show their own by doing their own dancing and fun moments. Many iconic models walked along as well and if you missed this show I highly suggest watching it on The Vogue website or view some clips on the Vouge or Khaurafab Instagram. It was a show to remember and I hope that Vouge World continues for years to come.

Mirror Palais recently gained some traction on tiktok in the beginning of summer due to their beautiful Spanish-esque aesthetic. The brand has since become an aesthetic and something every one wanted to obtain summer 2022. So it is no surprise to me that they absolutely killed their first fashion week show. It was held in a church, which some would feel is controversial, but I think is artistic. The clothing was very fitting to this Spanish aesthetic and it set a tone for the show. Dreamy, artistic, detailed, gracious, are only a few words I can use to describe the show and the collection it features.
The 80s are BACK with this new Tom Ford show. Models owned the runway with big hair, big earrings, and sequins. This show made Fashion week come to an end in the best way. Something else I love about this show was the way the models slowly and dramatically walked down the runway in their 80s glam. I truly think that it was one of the best ways to start wrapping up fashion week.

Best Dressed at the Emmy awards
Last night was the 2022 Emmys and while there were many great moments the best will always be the fashion. In this post I list my favorite looks of the night and why.
Each year Celebrities gather to honor actors, directors, and other artists in television with an Emmy. As great of an honor it is to even be nominated, winning one is a great achievement. During the Emmys we are also able to see many great fashion moments, best dressed lists, and accidental matching out fits on the runway. Making the Emmys one of my favorite times to review red carpet attire.
This year we started the evening off with, a fashion and style icon, Zendaya. Her and her Stylist Law have created Iconic, glamorous looks year after year. This year she kept is simple but classic with this black gown my Maison Valentino (who she has been wearing a lot of recently), Bulgari jewelry, and an almost vintage hair style. She looks as beautiful as ever. Not only did she look amazing on the carpet, but even better winning her Emmy.
Since we are already on a vintage style topic, I would like to bring up Elle Fanning who got inspiration from the 50’s and old Hollywood in which we can definitely see with her choice of hair and the over all dress style she has on. Her long black dress includes small pink fabric flowers on the chest along with the same pink on the inside part of the outer layer of the dresses skirt. This look was very classy and fit into theme well, Elle Fanning just screams modern day old Hollywood.
Lizzo is a very bold person in Personality and this translates in her attire as well. She has been seen wearing very big and bold dresses at award shows and events. This time she wore this Red ruffle dress with a high bun. This look is apart of the best dress list because of how eye catching this look just is. Maybe its the red or the size of the Dress or just Lizzo in general but I couldn’t help to look at her a few times and study this glamorously beautiful dress. May I also say she is another stunning award winner on the night.
Another bold look hit the Emmys when Sandra Oh stepped out in her iconic purple color in the form for a sequin suit. She looked very 70s-esque with the all purple look. Even the waves in her hair and the bangs gave off a very nostalgic, outgoing look that matches her personality and makes me want to buy a purple suit for myself.
Emmy- nominated actress and writer Quinta Burnson wore this custom Dolce and Gabana dress last night. This dark bronze dress shined at the Emmys and gave me another old Hollywood glamour vibe. She looked especially when winning her Emmy for Abott Elementary, it is so amazing to see her grow. I used to watch her on buzzfeed videos and she has really Mae a name for herself.
Last but not least I had to include Sofia Vergara, an icon and a generational heartthrob. Sofia Vergara looks stunning per usual in her Lara Basic dress and Lorraine Schwartz jewelry. Everything down to the hair and makeup looked wonderful and can I just say how does this woman not age? Sofia Vergara has looked the same for years and while her age may be slowing down she is not. She continues to make everything look good and be the center of glamour in the room.

My best skin care advice
I have gone through skin care products galore and I have been through so many skin phases. While I know the skin goes through a lot with stress, hormones, and other factors I have been able to reduce my break outs with a few simple steps and tactics. These are all just simple things and small lifestyle changes you can start incorporating, in order to begin your journey into better skin.
My first peace of advice for you is too keep where you sleep clean. This means changing out your pillow cases regularly around one a week. I used to do this once every two weeks and though it worked for a while, one day I realized my skin was beginning to break out again. Right around my cheek area, which is an unusual place for my usual break outs. I then realized my, at the time, new dog was sneaking into my bed when I was gone and sleeping on top of my pillow. after this realization I began to not only make sure my dog stayed off my pillows but also washed them more often. The cleaner the surface, the less likely you are to collect dirt, sweat, oil, and excess makeup.
Having a clean surface is a great step but also crucial to properly wash your face. I wash my face twice a day, and every time I sweat. Cleansing the skin, especially washing your face with a quality cleanser that works for your skin type, is extremely beneficial. I use a salicylic acid cleanser, as it breakdown sebum, sebum is what gives you these break outs in the first place. These cleansers break down clogging oils and prevents as many break outs. I would recommend doing your research and finding the best one for you. Also remember not to use hot water directly on your face as it can be damaging to the skin, use cold water or tepid water and a quality cleanser for the best results.
Taking care of your body is key to taking care of your skin. I know that every one talks about drinking water exercising to help with your skin, that’s because it is very valid advice. Your skin is apart t of your body, it is your largest organ and in order to properly take care of your skin, you have to give nourishment , love and care to the rest of your body as well as your mind. Bringing healthier lifestyle choices is beneficial for your skin and over all well being in the long run. Since incorporating better habits into my routine, my skin has been so much better. Everything is about good regimen . I mean we already promote skin care routines, so by adding more healthy routines you will surely help your skin. Some healthy habits to include in your routine can be…
Working out as much as you can
drinking more water
incorporating vitamins into diet
eating less irritants
taking the time to check your mental health
giving yourself moments of self care
This is my recent skin, today actually. I have started back on these rituals and will be updating the Khaurafab social media about my skin as well as the wellness that goes behind it.
In my beliefs about skin care, it is not just about what you use on your face, but in your body. Eating right is really important too, that’s why I say to avoid anything that you are aware irritates you. For example, chocolate is not exactly the best for my skin, while I can admit to still consuming it around the holidays, I try my best to avoid it. Trying to reduce irritants in your system can not only benefit your skin but your over all health, which is most important.
All the advice I wrote about are all things I have picked up from personal experience, my own personal reaserch, and other peoples advice. If you need any more skin care advice specifically on skin care products you can read Khaura Fab approved on September 10th.
All about new denim trends
Denim will always be one of those things that doesn’t come out of style. Jeans are and will always be a wardrobe must have, but I have been seeing so many new ways to wear and style Denim. The new styles of Denim aren’t necessarily new, people have been doing different things with their jeans for a while but certain denim apparel has really caught my attention.
Almost everyone has owned a denim skirt at one point or another, they are cute and simple, a great addition to your closet. Recently, I found this skirt from Devised Antithetical that was recently worn by Kylie Jenner. This skirt is a reworked Levi’s Jeans made into a very unique mini skirt. I own the DD mini and love how it looks on me, as well as loving that I found a mini skirt that is different than your everyday basic Jean skirt.
Reworked and reimagined denim is so big right now, which is exactly why I added this EB denim reinvented vintage capsule collection. The collection includes multiple new denim apparel that really stands out. The entire brand stands out as well, in that they have some big celebrity customers including Kendal Jenner, Selena Gomez, Hailey Bieber, Lori Harvey, and more. EB denim really shows new ways you can wear jeans and re-wear denim.
Levis is apart of this trend in more than one way, not only are they one of the biggest names in apparel but they are one of the first jeans brands and the biggest. They recently collaborated with Guizio, creating a collection of cute jeans and denim corsets. Each with great detailing and a nice fashionable look for fall.
Many popular names in fashion seem to be producing many of these denim trends such as Marc Jacobs. In their tote bag collections “The tote bag” they have a blue jean look in more than one of their designs. More recently they released not only another version of this tote bag but also more denim worked apparel such as jeans, tops, and jackets.
While I have many more examples of brands incorporating more denim designs, my last example of this has to be Good American’s new line “demin obsessed”. This line is very self explanatory as well as having many variety of denim that is a bit more suitable for every day fashion. Though I think that I could wear any of the pieces I listed above, Good American has more items that every day people can wear. This line is very stylish and body positive.
For more trend predictions make sure you are subscribed to The Khaursfab Newsletter as well as following all our social medias @Khaurafab. You can also find Khaurafab on YouTube, where I will be posting beauty, fashion, and skincare content. Following our socials is a way to get different and more engaging content from me and I am always so grateful for everyone joining the Khaurafab community.
Five iconic moments in 90’s runway fashion
90s fashion will forever be one of the greatest eras of style, for the dramatics, the art, and the icons who walked the runway. In this article, I list a few of the most iconic moments in 90s runway fashion.
There are so many iconic moments in the fashion, whether it’s a runway moment , an iconic hair flip, or a show. I have counted my five personal favorites to reflect on.
1)In 1999 a moment in fashion history was born. The Alexander McQueen spring/summer 1999 fashion show has always been one to remember, but not only for the clothing on the runway, but the performance. There are so many background elements for this performance that I love, McQueen was only 30, an independent designer from London, and did not have the big budget most have for these types of shows. Yet he hired some of the biggest models , each walking the runway for around £100 each. So many icons walked that runway, the show itself was huge. Though the most amazing and memorable moment of them all, was when Shalom Harlow stepped on a revolving platform in the middle of two robots. In the video below you can see just how powerful and artistically she moves. I assume being a ballet dancer helped with this, as her movements and expressions. In the video you can see how she doesn’t flinch when they are toward her head, she lifts her arms gracefully, to allow the robots to spray her with paint. They did not rehearse this either, making it even more impressive. This performance had raw, immersive, and expressive emotion making it so artistic and inspirational.

2)A moment in fashion that I don’t think is talked about enough is Vivienne Westwood autumn/winter 1993. The reason this is iconic in my eyes is because Niomi Campbell fell over in 9 inch Vivienne Westwood platforms. You would think a fall in such a big show would result in a super models demise, but it was quite the opposite. In a British vogue interview in October of 2019, Campbell says that some designers began reaching out to her asking for her to purposely fall at shows. Her fall made an impact on fashion, so much so that those shoes are on display at Londons V&A museum.

3)Thierry Mugler , has pieces that I can only dream of wearing. Mugler in general is iconic, everything Thierry Mugler has produced is a piece of art and fashion excellence. Thierry Mugler is a huge part of fashion who has touched the lives of many with his pieces, as he is such an influence. Not only were the pieces he created amazing, but he hired transgender models like Teri Toye and Connie Fleming and also including Drag artists Joey Arias and Lypsinka. Mugler had more diversity than any, an opened many doors to inclusivity in fashion. Not only with gender but we got models of different size in shows, which is not something not seen much in the 90’s, an something designers are still trying to integrate more now. This is why instead of a specific show he is iconic for, I think Thierry Mugler himself, is an iconic moment in fashion due to the inclusivity of the shows, the designs, and artistry.
4) In 1998 Alek Wek had thrown off the blonde wig she was given to walk the NYFW Betsey Johnson show. Most thought that this was a planned act of defiance for the show, but in reality, Wek threw it off because she felt that it wasn’t her. She did not take it off to cause a scene but a statement, she was just starting out in fashion and did not want to feel like she was not represented. It was seen as a rebellion of the European standard of beauty and is still talked about greatly.
5)Naomi Campbell has shown time an time again that she can make an iconic moment happen on and off the runway. This time she walked for Gianni Versace men’s wear 1998, where even though it was a runway show, it was mostly a performance. The show began with dancers in Versace, and ended with Naomi Campbell gliding on stage in a sparkling Versace dress with a fake gun in hand. As she walked towards one of the other models, who is down on the floor seemingly panicked, she approached and pointed the gun at him multiple times during the show. While this wasn’t the last part of her performance, it was the most iconic one. I continue to see people edit this clip of Campbell to songs that invoke power, being that it was such a powerful moment to watch.
The products I use in my everyday makeup
A list of my everyday makeup products that have lasted me all summer long, some all year! You will absolutely love this list and these products are such great investments in your makeup bags.
I decided to make this blog post simply to be able to link everything I use in one space so not only can you find the products I use in my everyday makeup videos. Now you can also shop them directly. This will be an ever expanding list of makeup products I currently use everyday, later we can move onto things like full glam products, eye shadows, etc. Enjoy the article!
1) My everyday foundation is the Kosas Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation. It has SPF, Hyaluronic Acid, and Niacinamide so its perfectly hydrating with a glow finish. You can buy this directly from The Kosas website or from Sephora, where I got it. If you know your undertones and everything you can simply try to color match your self or go into Sephora to try to get your best color.
2) The hourglass cosmetics Vanish Airbrush Concealer is a product I have used all summer and enjoy very much. It is creamy, not too heavy, and blends easily. While it says that it is a full coverage, I find it to be more on the medium coverage side as I have tried some “full coverage” concealers that have a different effect. This is one of those products that doesn’t sweat off during the heat waves we’ve been having an I really enjoy having an airbrush look, even while its over 100 degres.
3) My contour stick is and has always been the Fenty Beauty Match Stix Matte Contour Skinstick in the shade Mocha. I bought this when it first came out and I have continued to buy it. I’m going to be honest though, I initially didn’t have the best luck with it only because for a very long time, I didn’t know how to blend it the way I should. Makeup products are very important but so is technique, I still use this contour stick everyday and always recommend to though.
4) I wear cream blush and power blush because I layer my makeup for a few reasons. Because I use a cream an power blush I usually have to buy two different blushes, but since buying the One size beauty blush pelette, it has eliminated the need to buy two separate blushes and a high lighter. All three items come in one, for a reasonable price, they are nicely pigmented, and I feel that they are long lasting.
5) My bronzer is the Makeup by Mario SoftSculpt Transforming Skin Perfecto. I really trust the bronzing products makeup by Mario makes, as Mario has been doing Kim Karashian’s makeup for a very long time and has created so many different snatching contouring tricks. I believe that buying the products your favorite maker artists use or produce is a great way to get a quality product that works. which in exactly why I use this bronzer. As well as making my face have a radiant glow.
6)Since we are on the topic of makeup by Mario products, you should know that the majority of my eye shadow looks are done with the Makeup by Mario Master Mattes Eyeshadow Palette. It has everything you need for everyday makeup looks and glam looks as well. This pallet is a great investment in your makeup routine and if your anything like you you’ll use it everyday.
7) While I have only recently began using the Tartelette Tubing Mascara I really enjoy how it makes my lashes look . I decided to change it up a bit since I record so much makeup content on the Khaurafab platforms. I was recommended this product from an Ulta associate who swore it was amazing and popular for a reason. It extends the lashes, separates, and gives volume. Simply put it on one lash as a time, coat it well and shape each lash. When taking it off use micellar water and make sure to get it all off as it does stick on.
Note that this is the makeup I use everyday but I still switch out products for different looks or I’ll use more or less of each of these products depending on the day. If you want to see these products in action makeup sure you are subscribed to Khaurafab on YouTube, as well as following our other socials all @Khaurafab. Thank you for reading and supporting!
