August 2013 Favorites

I'm going to start doing a favorites post each month on my blog! I thought it would be a easy way to share my thoughts and opinion on what I'm liking. Maybe I'll start adding other favorites that are non-beauty? Anyways without further ado, let's start!

Physician's Formula Organic Wear 100% Natural Origin Lash Boosting Mascara:

I love this mascara! It gives my lashes a good even coat of volume without looking clumpy. This mascara isn't a very "wet" mascara, so it dries fast and helps me hold a curl. One downfall I found with this is that it smudges on me, so I just had a waterproof mascara on top and it lasts all day! This mascara combo gives my lashes a falsie effect.

EOS Lip Balm in Passionfruit:

I've had an obsession with EOS lip balms since I discovered them my freshman year of high school! I love how they come in a little ball shape, and it gives me the perfect amount of hydration that doesn't feel like something is sitting on my lips. I've tried a lot of their scents and this one I just discovered and have been using this as a lip balm non stop! It's not too sweet or fruity but the perfect amount of each combined. 

Essie's Nail Polish in Boxer Shorts:

This color is a shade of purple that I don't own in my collection. It's a purple that has a blue undertone in it. It's still a bright color but dark at the same time, perfect for a transitioning from summer to fall.

Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous Foundation:

I have been using this foundation almost every single day of the week. This foundation may replace my holy grail Revlon Colorstay. One of the main reasons is that this foundation has a pump, something Revlon can really work on! Also this literally lasts all day on my face without it moving around in the hot summer months. If you're looking for a new foundation definitely check this one out.

(For color references I'm around a NC25-30 and I use 842 Medium Beige)

Maybelline's Color Whisper in Petal Rebel:

I have already done a review on this lip stick. Now this color just looks great for the summer time. It's a really pretty pink color.

Biore Acne Clearing Scrub:

I love this scrub and use it every night in the shower! It isn't abrasive to the skin because it uses little microbeads to help you scrub off the dead skin cells. I found that this helped a lot with my acne. And I have used this for the past 4 months? I think this is my favorite cleanser/scrub from Biore.
