Very Late September Favorites

I know I know I'm super late. Like super late. But better late than never! Last month I bought a few new drugstore beauty products, just to try out. I also started using my Bella Bamba blush again, but it kinda broke me out so I've started to use it less. 

MAC Mineralize Foundation: Legit my favorite foundation. Yes, its MAC. No, it doesn't break me out. Its beautiful, makes my skin look flawless, and I believe that its an overall amazing product. 

Daisy by Marc Jacobs: Even though Daisy is a summery scent, I still like to wear a small spritz of it every now and again.

Maybelline Big Eyes Mascara: Its not the most popular Maybelline mascara when compared to their Falsies line, but I promise you its an amazing product. Every single eyelash is individually covered with mascara. Making your lashes look longer and make you eyes look "bigger".

Maybelline Fit Me Concealer: Its a good drugstore concealer, because theres different shades for every skin tone, but it broke me out. Maybe its because I have sensitive skin, but oh well. Its a good product, really covers up redness and any blemishes. 

Rimmel London Kate Moss Lipstick in 12: Its a beautiful Fall shade. Bright, matte lipstick that lasts. Because I live in the US there isn't a wide selection to choose from, but this was one of my faves. 

Sugar by Fresh: Now that the air is becoming colder and is harsh against your skin and lips. Sugar is one of my favorite chap sticks because it smells nice, rejuvenates your lips and smells nice too!

Tresemmé Split Remedy Hair Spray: In love with this hair product. Especially when my hair is damaged. A couple spritzes in my damp hair after I take a shower. After a couple of days my hair feels stronger and softer. 

Bella Bamba Blush by Benefit: Everyone loves Benefit products and yes, I'm one of them. I like how they look (the packaging and on your face) and their smell, but the thing is that Benefit breaks me out. It's weird because everyone that I know that wears Benefit makeup, has never broken out from one of their products. I wonder why. Other than that I wish I could wear it all the time, but its not the greatest for my skin type. 

Wet n' Wild Coloricon Eyeshadow Palette in Comfort Zone: I don't wear a lot of eyeshadow, but I really want to start. I thought the best thing for me to do is to put a light layer of natural eyeshadow, so that I can familiarize myself and then over time use other colors. This palette has two different types of "natural" eyeshadow shades, but I only use the bronzier side. I don't like the green shadow color, so I'm staying away from that. Other than the colors, the product is overall really good for a drugstore product and I'm really happy with it. 

New & Noteworthy

These are my new beauty buys as of 2 weeks ago. Sorry for taking a while to post this. I just started junior year (in high school) and I got super busy from day 1. On to my makeup buys! 

I bought Sephora Favorites "Give Me Some Lip" Set, which is a little box of Sephora's best selling lip products from different brands. It includes a Fresh "Sugar Rose" Tinted Lip Treatment, Laura Mercier Lip Glacé in "Bare Pink", Buxom Full On Lip Polish in "Dolly", NARS Lip Gloss in "Turkish Delight", Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in "Rhubarb", and Tarte LipSurgence Lip Luster in "Glitzy". 

I haven't tried them all, but right now my favorites are the Tarte Lip Luster, Buxom Lipgloss and the Sugar Rose. I haven't tried the NARS lip gloss yet, but a friend of mine told me that its very sticky, which I'm not so happy about, but we'll see. I also haven't tried out the Laura Mercier lipgloss, but it smells good so I'm excited to try it on. I'll write another post about the one lip product I liked the most out of them all soon. 

Tarte Lip Luster in "Glitzy"- Its a purplish- pink color. Its a bit sheer on the lips, but if you overly apply it, you can get a deeper color. It smells really good and also has a slight glitter to it, but I barely noticed it when I put it on. Its also very moisturizing on the lips, so it works a little like a lip balm, which I love! 

Buxom LipGloss in "Dolly"- I have another Buxom lipgloss in a light pink, that I kinda stole from a friend, I forgot the name, but I love it. If you haven't tried Buxom lip glosses, your missing out, unless you don't like it when your lips start tingling (hehe). What the lip gloss does is create a look of more plump and full lips. It has Vitamins A and E, which helps keep your lips soft and moisturized. Its very shimmery, especially this color, so I would wear it more a night, when I go out or something. I love it!

Fresh Sugar Rose- If you have an account with Sephora, you probably know that every year on your birthday you are sent a small tester of the Sugar lip treatment. What it does is moisturize and heal chapped lips, while making your lips look as healthy as ever! I have both the original and the rose scented lip balm, but I prefer the original more. Rose sent is a bit to strong for me. 

Real Techniques 4-pc Core Collection- Best. Brushes. In. The. World. I am truly in love with these brushes, especially the bluffer brush. This collection come with a Bluffer Brush, Contouring Brush, Foundation Brush, and a Detailing Brush (in that order). Its my first real set of brushes and I was really excited about them. I heard Vivanna and Lily talk about them a ton, so I said why not. I use the Bluffer Brush to apply my liquid foundation, because it spreads the foundation evenly on my skin, unlike some foundation brushes I've used. I love using the Contouring Brush when I apply highlighter. Its absolutely perfect.

Maybelline New York Big Eye Mascara- Yes, I bought the new Maybelline Big Eye mascara. Yes, I thought it would make my eyes look bigger. No, it didn't make my eyes look bigger, but it made my lashes longer and fuller, which I love love love. It has a two brushes, a thicker brush for your top lashes and a thinner brush for you bottom lashes. Both do an excellent job at being mascara. I love this product. It took over for my Cover Girl Lash Blast mascara.
