Recent Sephora Haul

Perricone MD No Foundation Foundation Serum - I've only used this once, it's not full coverage but it is buildable. The best thing I noticed right away is you don't feel like you have any makeup on at all.

NARS Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow in Dione - These eyeshadows can be worn wet or dry. I wore this color today up to my crease and then I just blended it out and up toward my brow bone. Very pretty color.

NARS Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow in Himalia - I haven't worn this yet but it's a very pretty and super pigmented.

NARS Larger Than Life Long Wear Eyeliner in Dark Chocolate - This is an awesome eyeliner and it truly is long wearing. It's creamy and pigmented and I love it. I got a sample size in black and loved it so much I bought a full size in brown.

L'Occitane Rich Body Cream in Shea Butter - I love this body cream. It makes my skin super soft and hydrated. The scent is not overpowering which I appreciate. I will definitely repurchase.

Favorite Hair Tools

T3 SinglePass Twirl Professional Curling Iron - I've had this curling iron for around 3 years and I love it. It's well made, has several heat levels and curls better than any other curling iron I've tried.


Bellamihair 6-in-1 Complete Curler Set - I just bought this about 2 months ago and I love it. It gets super hot and I hate wearing the glove so I burn myself a lot. When I curl my hair with this, the curls last for a couple days. It's expensive so remember to use the coupon code, well worth the money!

Conair Infiniti Pro Blow Dryer - If you blow dry your hair on a daily basis, do yourself a favor and buy a nice blow dryer. This one is around $30 so it's not terribly expensive but it dries my hair so much faster than the cheaper ones.

Mini Walgreens Haul


Wet-n-Wild Melrose at Night, this is limited edition, I couldn't find it on the Walgreens website so I guess it's only available in stores.

 From left to right: crease, browbone, definer, eyelid and crease

Top: Neutrogena nourishing eyeliner
Bottom: Covergirl ink it!

Left: Covergirl ink it! in 230 black ink
Right: Neutrogena nourishing eyeliner in 30 spiced chocolate


Left: Wet-n-Wild 528A pink ice
Right: Wet-n-Wild A035 V.I.Pink

Here I'm wearing the Covergirl ink it! liner on my upper lashline and the Wet-n-Wild pink ice on my lips. I found the liner easy to apply and I love the color of this lipstick, very happy with both purchases.

August 2014 Empties

Here are the products I used up in the month of August:

Coconut Shower Cream by The Body Shop - I really liked this, it's super creamy and I love the coconut scent, would definitely repurchase. My only negative with it is the bottle is hard to squeeze, with my painful hands it was hard for me.


Coconut Body Butter by The Body Shop - Love this body butter, have bought many of these and will buy more. I love the coconut scent, it leaves my skin soft and hydrated.


Macadamia Natural Oil Deep Repair Masque - I mentioned this in my Current Hair Products post. I love how this smells and it leaves my hair super soft.

Purify Coconut Water Cleansing Wipes by Pacifica  - I liked these, they are gentle on the skin with a gentle scent of coconuts, will definitely repurchase. I got mine at Target.

Alba Hawaiian 3-in-1 Clean Towelettes Pineapple Enzyme - These are good wipes, gentle on the skin but remove makeup well and the scent is not over powering which I like. I would repurchase these.

The Clean Truth Cleansing Cloths by Ole Henriksen - I got these in one of my Birchboxes or Ipsy bags. They were ok, nothing special so I won't buy them.

Angels on Bare Skin by Lush - I mentioned this in my Favorite Lush Products. This is good for dry, sensitive skin. I would repurchase it.

Batiste Dry Shampoo - This is my favorite dry shampoo. I have to use the original kind because the scents of the others by Batiste are too strong and give me migraines. I usually buy 2 at a time because my daughter likes to use it too.

Yes To Cucumbers Face Cleanser Towelettes - I got these in one of my Birchboxes I think, they were gentle and soothing on the skin. They can be found in most drugstores, I've seen them in Target and Walgreens.

First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser - I loved this and will be purchasing the full size. It's gentle and my face felt very clean after using it.

It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC Cream - As soon as I used this sample I went online and purchased the full size. I mentioned it in my Weekly Faves & Flops post. I haven't worn anything else all summer.

100% Pure Honey Cream Wash Gingerade - I got this sample in one of my Birchboxes, it was nice just not enough in this little sample for me. I love lots of suds and there just wasn't enough product in the sample size. I doubt I would buy it just because I have so many other body washes that I love.

Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre 24 Hour Miracle Cream - I got this in one of my Birchboxes as well, after using it once I went online and bought the full size. It made my skin feel younger, softer, smoother. Will definitely repurchase.

Bain de Terre Macadamia Oil Nourishing Shampoo and Bain de Terre Macadamia Oil Nourishing Conditioner - I love Bain de Terre products so I would purchase these again.

*All of these pictures were taken with my iPhone in my bed because I'm having a rest day. That's how I roll some days.

Favorite Lush Products

Buffy Body Butter - Hands down this is my most favorite product by Lush. If you get bumps on your upper arms and the backs of your thighs, this is for you. I use it every other time I shower and it's completely smoothed out the roughness and bumps on my arms and back of my legs.

African Paradise Body Conditioner - You use this at the end of your shower, slather it on, let it sit for a minute and rinse off. It will leave your skin soft and the scent is not overwhelming which I like.


Angels on Bare Skin Cleanser - This is a facial cleanser and gentle exfoliator. It's kaolin clay based with finely ground almonds and lavender flowers. Great for dry skin.

Ocean Salt Cleanser - This can be used on your face and body. Great for acne prone skin.

I love just walking in a Lush store, the people there are always so helpful and super nice. What are some of your Lush favorites?
