August Shopping List

Hey,
Can you believe it's already August!? Summer has gone by so fast! So for anyone confused by the title of this post let me explain. I have decided to start a new monthly post where I share my list of things I want to pick up in the month, from high end to drugstore, things from skin care, nail polish, perfume and makeup, possibly even hair! Exciting! Then at the end of the month do a haul on everything that I picked up that was on the list. Now I wont just do one big monthly haul nor will I only buy things on the list, I will have more then one haul a month but this will ensure at least two because I have decided to spilt this up into two separate hauls, nail polish and everything else, reason being not everyone is a polish junkie like myself, and polish can be quite long and I do hoard it so it will just be easier to have a separate haul on it, with that said unlike the monthly haul for all other items on the list, which polish will have its separate list in this post; the polish hauls will be more then just the list but hopefully the list will help minimize the amount of polish I hoard! I have seen a few other bloggers do this before and I just loved the idea so lets jump right into the products. Before getting into this I'm going to explain my list a bit better, it's spilt between beauty and nails, in the beauty there is high end and drugstore, within that it will be sub categorized in sets, face, lips, eyes and other. If there is a lot of products from one brand instead of typing each time the brand I will sub categorize it into that brand. Sets will be the only thing with links.

June Favorites 2013

Hey,
Were half way through 2013! This summer is flying by and it's that time for monthly favorites, I haven't done one of these in a while and I don't have to many things but I still wanted to share what I have been loving this month!

Lets start with the thing I have loved the most, Naked Basics. What can I say, everyone raved about this palette and what's not to love a palette of five matte neutrals and one shimmer. I have used this palette loads throughout the month, its so great for grunge looks to classic pin up looks. Out of all the colors my favorite has to be Walk of Shame, just a matte skin tone but yet it is so beautiful and great on the lid.

Next are the two most used lip colors of the month, I rave about these lipsticks all the time and that would be the Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipsticks, especially the Kate Moss line. The color I have obsessed over this month is 110, a gorgeous bright coral, great for summer. The other lip color I have loved is one of the L'oreal Colour Caresse Wet Shine Stain in Rose On and On, I hate the packaging but love the color and product, I don't feel like it last for ever but I do like the texture, it's not for everyone since it is quite sticky and not always very comfortable/

Back to eye products, the Rimmel Lycra Lash Extender is so nice, at first it wasn't anything special but now it's so amazing it lengthens and add a bit of volume. Another Rimmel product I have been loving are the ScandalEyes kohl liners in Dark Brown and Nude, I have been using the brown in my tightline and switching between it and the nude in my waterline. I also really like using the nude under my brow to really highlight and make my brow stand out. Last thing for the eyes would be the Maybelline 24 hour color tattoo in Barely Branded. Just shimmer skin tone, its great under shadows, I don't personally use this on its on, I tried it once and creased on my in an hour.

Last product would be the ELF Contouring and Blush Duo, this is the original one. The bronzer is the perfect shade for my skin. I personally love a strong contour and this give me an almost drag queen one!

I have seriously been terrible at blogging these past week, but I have a few post coming out this next week. What are you favorite products this month?

September Favorites!


Isn't this cute? I find it on google, I was going to use a picture of all my favorites but I couldn't find my phone or camera.
Hey,

So I wrote this on the first, and I went all day not realizing that it was October, I just hope I didn't write the date any where...

So the first thing I have been loving is the Kat Von D Tattoo Concealer, I had gotten a sample of this and the MUFE Full Coverage concealer a while back and I have been using this one more and I absolutely love this concealer, I'm going to give the other one a try too, but I think I might get the full size of this concealer.

Another favorite of mine this month and the past three has been Coastal Scents Fall Festival palette, I'm not going to talk about this too much, since I rave about it constantly, but I am going to add the link here for the review I have on it.

This month I was using a combo of two Rimmel mascaras, Lycra Lash Extender and Extra Wow; I love the way this combo makes my lashes look. I have been testing out the Wet n Wild cream liner, to compare it to the ELF one, and it is definitely a favorite of the month. I also wanted to mention the Avon Perfect Eyebrow pencil, it is a dual ended pencil, one side spoolie other side the brow pencil and it is really great, I think they might be doing away with them so I figured I would mention these so there's still a chance to try before they are gone, and I really do love these, I use this every day for my brows, it is my all time favorite thing for my brows and its cheap. As I was typing this an Avon commercial came on...

For blush this month I have been using an ELF Studio line blusher in Blushing Rose, it is such a gorgeous blush for fall, I love the way this looks in the backs of my cheeks half in the hallows and half on the bone. Revlon Colorburst? Lipgloss in Rose Gold has been my go to lipgloss this pretty much just lives in my bag now, it is so pretty I really don't know if they still have this one but if they do check it out it is so pretty for fall, or just any season.

I have been in a rut lately, using the same products, but changing up my eye makeup, and by that I mean using four different colors and just changing the placement, I think I'm going to do one of those basket of the week things, that make you switch it up and get some use out of other things, maybe if I do I'll make a post about it.

What have your favorites this month been? I should have a late mani monday posted later today.
