Hi all! I'm currently watching a marathon of Betty White's Off Their Rockers on Lifetime. The idea of the elderly pranking young people is just hilarious. It's the kind of stuff you'd find on YouTube, purely genius.
Well we're heading into August and is it just me or did July fly by so quickly? Something I look forward to at this time are monthly favourites, which is basically sharing your most loved beauty and even non-beauty items of that month. Today I'm going to share mine!
My favourite nail polish find was Revlon ColorStay Long Wear Nail Enamel #310 Vintage Rose.
For the entire month I've only been using the Dream Bouncy Blush By Maybelline in #20 Peach Satin. It gives this gorgeous glowy finish which I love and the peachy colour works perfect for any skin tone.
I think Maybelline's The Rocket Volum' Express is a popular one with many. Mostly because it does what it says by giving great volume and even length. I love how this mascara does not clump or weigh down my lashes. I'd definitely re-purchase this.
Probably one of my most favoured makeup items of the month and possibly the year is L'Oreal's True Match Super Blendable Crayon Concealer. Mine is in the shade medium/deep W6-7-8 and it's basically at its end! I cannot find it anywhere to re-purchase so I'm sad about that because it's the only concealer that works perfectly to hide my blemishes. It is really creamy and super blendable (no wonder it's called that) and I love the retractable feature (no sharpening!).
I've never used Suave Professionals hair products before until someone told me about how surprisingly great they work. After trying the Keratin Infusion Smoothing Conditioner, I'm in love. This stuff is amazing for such an affordable price! I have naturally wavy/curly hair and after my first time using this my hair was both visibly and touchably soft and smooth. I did not even get these kind of results with Moroccan Argan Oil Products!
I love cleansing wipes for removing makeup and this Exfoliating Renewal Wet Cleansing Towelette from Ponds is amazing. It easily removes face and eye makeup (although I swear by eye makeup remover solutions for a thorough clean) and contains these tiny beads which takes care of the exfoliation and has the most amazing citrus scent.
I never leave out toner from my everyday skincare regime and this Blemish Treating Astringent from Bioré is great! It leaves a tingly sensation which I love in astringents and contains Salicylic acid which I'm sure everyone with acne would be familiar with. This formula is also oil-free which is a plus.
Not every product you buy you're going to love and this was the case with Herbal Essences' Hydralicious Reconditioning Shampoo and Conditioner. I usually love Herbal Essences but this one did not do it for me. I bought it because I wanted to try something new and the smell was great, however after using it I really did not like it. My hair did not feel thoroughly clean after shampooing as it was WAY too reconditioning (at least the name does not lie) and I felt it unnecessary to use the conditioner. Even after finishing off with the conditioner and rinsing, my hair felt a little heavy and did not smell like the lovely scent from the bottle (which is my major attraction with Herbal Essences). Overall a huge disappointment for me.
That concludes my favourites for the month of July. Let me know what are yours in the comments and also which products of mine you may have and enjoy. Also, have you tried the Herbal Essences' Shampoo and Conditioner? How did it work for you? Have a good one!
P.S Thanks mom for the beautiful post card!
