Beauty Find: Current Favorites




I don't really have month by month favorites, but I do have current favorites! I use most of these products on a day to day basis. Each one of these work so well with my skin and some are just really fun! A couple I haven't had for very long but I enjoy them just the same! 

Shall we get into it? I think we shall! 

1. Not your mother's Beach Babe texturizing sea salt spray. 
I know I have posted about this in another post, but I really do like this stuff! I really like how I can spritz this on my hair and walk out the door! 

2. Batiste tinted dry shampoo. 
Uuuh-mazing stuff! Great for the 2 day or 3 day hair. Plus when you spray this stuff on your hair blends well into your hair, it's great when you're on a time crunch and you don't want to look like you're prematurely graying. ; )

3. Nerium night cream. This stuff is unbelievable! So amazing! So worth the price. My skin has so improved in just the 2 months of using it. It's so moisturizing and leaves my skin baby butt soft each day I use it! I have dry/oily skin and I have had NO trouble with it irritating my skin or making it more oily. If you want more info on this product: www.styledbyryn.nerium.com.

4. Shocking Hot pink hairbands.
I heart these. They are so cute. Especially when I do a messy topknot or high ponytail. They are the perfect pink, you won't mind exposing them. If they had a whole pack, I would totally buy it! But I got like 4 or 5 in a pack with more neutrals at target. So I guess I'll have to buy another pack! : )
 

5. EOS lip balm. My absolute fave brand of lip balm (and shaving cream)! Trust me, I've tried many! I've been using this stuff for about 3-4 years and I just adore this stuff. It has a creamy texture, minty flavor & leaves your lips luscious! ; )

6. Pacifica eyeshadow palette in enlighten. Though it will work well in the fall, it's working great for me right now! With gold and the peach color, you can't really go wrong with it! It's perfect. It also stays on all day, without making you have a crease. Perfect!

7. Love & Toast,  Honey Coconut and mandarin tea.
I'm one to layer my perfume on, just loke i like to layer my clothes... I like the results usually, and I'm one to spray as much on so I can smell it too, because what's the point of having a yummy fragrance on, when you can't smell and enjoy it too! These are perfect for laying, not a strong fragrance at all but just enough that you know you smell good! 
(This is me & my sorry attempt at showing you how I spray my perfume on!)

8. Butter London nailpolish in Wellies.
This is such a fun color! I enjoyed it so much when I had it on my nails. It was super neon, but not a gross neon. I just like this color so much! It has a yellow-y cast to the green. Such a fave!

9. Philosophy clear days ahead.
This face wash is super gentle, yet so refreshing! It help keep zits at bay. And it isn't trying at all. Such a good product!

10. Maybelline great lash in I see blue limited addition. 
Perfect pop o' color! I just really like the blue. It's not a true royal blue, rather a periwinkle of sorts. But I still adore this stuff! 


Whelp! I hope you enjoyed my current favorites as much as I enjoy mine! If you want me to review a product(s), leave comment below, and I will try my hardest to review it! : ) love you all so so much!

Beauty Find: You can't go wrong with lipstick & mascara...

(Girl about town) 

Nothing is as fabulous than a woman wearing no more than lipstick, mascara & a lil powder on her face. It's a confident act to do that, and such a pretty one as well! Going au natural is a luxury in and of itself! One should do it regularly...

I'm a big fan of bright lipstick & mascara. It's so simplistic/elegant to me. Just the other day, I just wanted to wear red lipstick. I haven't worn red lipstick since Christmas time... But I REALLY wanted to! And for those of you who don't know me, I carry about 11 MAC lipsticks + others in my purse... (I've got a hook up of Mac supplies) and I carry them around with me, pretty much everywhere I go! It's been like this since high school... Crazy! And i get a little sad when i change out my purse to a smaller bag or im travling, i then only bring 4-5... Anywho, I think what spurred on the red lips, was that I had on a white V-neck (which I made & I absolutely love!) and something about a white v-neck and red lips, it's just well um, sexy.... And very chic! 

Now to the other part of this blog, I'm a HUGE fan of mascara! I will layer and layer and layer mascara on top of over each other to make them stand out. I'm a fan of my length of lashes, but my sister has such luscious lashes! They are incredibly long. I almost think she took all of the length and thickness from both my other sister and myself.

A few weeks ago, my favorite beauty store: Beauty Brands was having a fabulous event, which they always do! And they are ALWAYS so nice. And they take competitors coupons! Big plus right there, since there are days when I think Ulta doesn't even take their own coupons...

Anyway, the beauty event was about 15 or so different kinds of prestige(high end) mascaras for $10.98 ea!!!! A total steal! So I bought 2 different tubes of mascara, which were: hyperlash by smashbox & glominerals. I really like hyperlash, the glominerals one, ehhh it's ok, not my fave. But I'll still use it.
One thing to add, go to an event early, because if you waited like I did, well, lets just say, the selection is few... Which I would have liked to try some of the others... Next time! 

And then a few nights ago, I was at Kroger's grocery store, and I had just pinned this mascara, like two days before. And so I bought the maybelline cat eyes mascare, which I layer with Hyperlash... And it works great! And I think I paid only $5.89 for, and I think that was a good price for it. 

Side note: 
Funny story, years ago, I hated loose eyelashes! Grossed me out entirely! Where I made my family get the loose eyelashes off my face and made them get them off their own faces too. And the whole blowing it off your finger and making a wish thing, um no! Eww! That's just disturbing. Like I said, funny story! Hah!



My favorites right now:

Lips:
Impassioned by MAC
Russian red by MAC
Girl about town by MAC


Lashes:
Benefit They're real?
Smashbox Hyperlash 
Maybelline the colossal volume express in regard feline 


On my wish list to get:
Rebel lipstick by MAC ( I saw on a customer, with fair skin like me, last Fall at an event and I have wanted it ever since!)
Ruby woo by MAC (I've heard this is the best red lipstick ever! It works for any skin tone.)
