Hey Guys!
I thought that it would be a really fun if I started doing monthly makeup / skin care favorites. I will be posting some high end but also drug store makeup that I was loving in the month of November and I hope you guys enjoy seeing what I've been obsessing over! ♡
Too Faced : Born This Way Foundation
♡ My first favorite is The Too Faced Born This Way Foundation! It is honestly the best foundation I have tried thus far. I could never find a foundation that didn't make my face feel caked on or oily, but this one is amazing and doesn't make me feel like that at all. Despite the fact that it is more of a medium coverage foundation, you can definitely build it up! This foundation is oil free and it also contains coconut water, which helps balance out the moisture levels of the skin without over hydrating. It also has alpine rose, which helps brighten your skin and hydraluronic acid which smooths out and makes skin look more younger and youthful. Which is a big plus if I get all of that from just putting on my everyday foundation. I also was able to find my perfect skin match with this foundation. I tend to have a hard time finding the right skin shade in most foundations; either it has too much of a orange tone or the color is just too dark. But with Too Faced, they have such a wide variety in my opinion that I was able to find my match. Too faced also always has the most cutest packaging!!! <333Anastasia : Master Pallet By Mario
♡ My second favorite product of the month is the Anastasia Master Pallet by Mario. I'm going to be honest with you guys, I didn't know who Mario was at first, lol. So I did some research and his name is Mario Dedivanovic, he is a makeup artist and I believe he has a YouTube channel as well. But back to his palette, it is gorgeous!!! What drew me to this palette, is that it has so many fall shades that I wanted to use for this season. The shades in this palette are all very pigmented! I did experience very little fall out with the metallic shades, but it really didn't bother me at all. This palette has 5 satin shades, 4 metallic, and 3 matte. My favorite shades out of this palette are Isabel, Violeta,and Muse.
♡ Isabel is a burnt orange and has a matte finish. ♡ Violeta is said to be a dark brown, but I also see hints of red tones in it, so to me, it's more burgundy than brown. It looks way different when you actually swatch it! ♡ Muse has a very pretty rose gold shade with a metallic finish.
Wet N Wild : Coverall Primer
♡ The next product is the Wet N Wild Cover All Face Primer. I am in love with this primer it glides on smoothly and doesn't make your face feel oily! It helps my foundation stay on all day and I feel like it is a dupe for the Smashbox Photo Finish Primer, so if you're looking for a good primer that is inexpensive, you should definitely try this out it is only 4.99$.
Colourpop: Highlighter Stole The Show
♡ My next Product is a Colourpop highlighter in the shade Stole The Show. This highlighter has a very creamy texture. It is very pigmented and bright! To tell you guys the truth, I don't really use this on my cheeks as a highlighter, I only use this particular highlighter for the inner corner of my eyes. Of course, you can definitely use this as a highlighter for your cheeks! It is beautiful, but I don't like how it looks on my skin color. I just love how it gives any look I create that pop in the inner corner!
Lorac : Behind the Scenes Eye Shadow Primer
♡ My favorite eye shadow primer at the moment is the Lorac Behind the Scenes Eye Shadow Primer! This primer is very gentle and also very light weight! A big plus to this primer is that it is oil, fragrance, and paraben free. It keeps my eye shadows on all day without any creasing!
Dermalogica: Active Moist
♡ Next product is a skin care product! So I found out about this brand through my job and I love it so much. It is the Dermalogica Active Moist Moisturizer. This moisturizer is very sheer. I hate when I have to put on moisturizers and it feels very thick and heavy on my skin. It is very easy to apply and uses plant extracts and amino acids that can help with dehydration and improve skin texture. I love using this especially during the winter time when it starts to get cooler outside, because my skin tends to get dry and this helps out a lot. So definitely try them out I actually use more than one product from them and my skin feels great!Kat Von D : Lolita
♡ My next product is a liquid lipstick! It is the Kat Von D liquid lipstick in Lolita. Lolita is one of my favorite lippies in my collection it is the perfect rosy nude! It is also definitely very long lasting! There are many mixed reviews about her formula; some people say that it's patchy, but personally I didn't experience that. I honestly think her formula is amazing and all her products are vegan!
Colourpop: Bepper
♡ Last but not least, is the liquid lipstick that I have been using the most by Colourpop and it is called Beeper! This color is a good everyday nude! The formula is ultra matte, so you might want to apply chapstick before but I really do love it! It is also very long wearing! If you are looking to find different shades that are matte and affordable please check out Colourpop. They are literally only $8!
