August Monthly Beauty Favorites:
FACE:
I received this First Aid Beauty Mattifying Gel in my August Ipsy Bag and I've been loving it ever since. I'm almost out of this sample because I've been using it just about everyday as my face Moisturizer. I love the gel consistency and that there isn't an overpowering scent to it.
My August Ipsy bag was a hit because I'm now mentioning another item I received in it. My skin redness has been ridiculous lately, so I've really been getting a lot of use out of the Aurora Pro Color Corrector in the shade Pistachio. This is a light green corrector which is great for redness. I mentioned all of that in my previous Ipsy Glam Bag "unboxing" that I will link below. I love this product!
My two go-to foundations that I've been reaching for this past month is the (once again) L'oreal Infalliable Pro-Matte & Maybelline Dream BB Pure.
L'oreal: I love this one on days when I want more of a coverage on my skin and a more matte look. It really does have great coverage and is one of my favorite formulas of foundation.
Shade: 101 Classic Ivory
Maybelline: This one is actually just a BB cream and not an actual "foundation", but I wear as a foundation over my moisturizer and primer. It is a sheer to light coverage which is normal for BB creams. The fact that it is a BB cream means it helps clear up some of my acne while giving me a slight glow/coverage. I love this for the summer time.
Shade: 110 Light/Medium Sheer Tint
I've had this Nude Rose Sculpt & Glow Palette by Bh Cosmetics for months now, but I just now got it out to try it out. I will have a little "mini Review" on this item soon so I don't want to give too much away, but it did make my monthly favorites!
Tarte has done it again for me. I swear there hasn't been a product by them yet that I haven't enjoyed. This is their highlight in Exposed. This is definitely a buildable highlight, but if lightly used it can be just a natural glow look.
EYES:
These two have been what I've been reaching for a lot this summer. I actually have a "palette review" on one of them and a "tutorial" using the other. I'll link both of those below. I say enough in both blogs about these gorgeous palettes, but I really enjoyed using these this summer and experimenting with more pops of colors in my looks.
I also wanted to start mentioning brushes that I love using in my monthly favorites. This is probably "hands down" my favorite eye brush. This is the Vegan Crease Blender by XO Beauty. It is such good quality and I really have no complaints with any of the brushes I've ordered from this brand. This has just been one of my top favorites for awhile! It blends shadows like a dream. I really recommend XO Beauty brushes.
I've actually sat aside my ABH Brow Definer and have been using this old favorite of mine. This is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Powder Duo in Taupe. This used to be the only thing I would use for my brows until I finally stepped out of my comfort zone to try more of a pencil brow product. I want to branch out more with other brands brow items, but I've been really content with my ABH products.
I haven't been wearing a lot of eyeliner this summer, but for those few days here and there I've been using this Ciate London Fierce Flicks. This is a felt tip liquid liner in a black shade. I really like this one because it goes on smoothly and is really easy to use with the felt tip. This is a good one for "winging" out your liner!
LIPS:
I've had more of a variety of lip products to share. I've used liquid lipstick, gloss, and regular lipstick a lot this past month. These are all great quality and brands I like using. These are a few of the ones I have been wearing most.
