I haven't done a 'products i'm loving' sort of post since my monthly favorites for May and i've been meaning to share/briefly review a few products on here, so i thought i'd do a 'currently loving' post! These products are all really ones that have been in my collection for a while & i've rediscovered, or products i've just gotten in the past month or so and have become staples for me. There's a mixture of hair, eyes, face, & lip products, so a bit of everything! Hope you enjoy. :)
♥ CHI Silk Infusion - I typically wash my hair at night & let it air dry, but lately i've been washing my hair in the morning and blow drying it instead (usually too tired/lazy at night!). So i've been putting in a little bit of this into my damp hair before i blow dry it, to protect it from the heat. This makes my hair super soft and healthy-looking, and i noticed my hair dries faster with this in.
♥ Got 2 B Guardian Angel - My phase of wavy/beachy-hair loving has ended and i've really been enjoying wearing my hair poker-straight. Once my hair is dry, i spritz a bit of this in before i straighten it. It smells gorgeous and makes straightening my hair a breeze since it really does protect the hair well and makes it super soft and shiny. This is probably my new holy grail heat protectant. :)
♥ L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black mascara - I've fallen in love with this mascara! I was running out of my go-to Clinique High Impact mascara, but felt like trying something new and ended up trying this one, which is literally a third of the price of the Clinique one. It's super black and makes my lashes look amazing, almost like falsies. Just like the name implies, it's really volumizes the lashes. Two coats of this and you have *the* perfect eyelashes.
♥ Revlon Brow Fantasy Pencil/Gel in Dark Blonde - My Rimmel brow pencil was getting smaller & smaller so i went to go pick up a new one, but it was nowhere to be found! So i ventured to find a new one & my mom actually spotted this one for me. I was a bit hesitant to get this because i don't really like 'gimmicky' products like this, with two different products in one 'thing', but thought i'd try it anyway. It's a lot less red toned than the Rimmel one (i used to one in Hazel) and goes with my hair color a lot more. The gel is amazing as well. Will be repurchasing this over & over!
♥ Urban Decay Primer Potion - I know i did a post on how i had converted to using Too Faced Shadow Insurance instead of UDPP, but i got another tube of the primer potion with the Naked palette and it just reminded me of how much i love this stuff. I got comments on that post about how UD had started making the primer in tube form, so i think when i use up the Shadow Insurance, i will definitely be purchasing the tube form of UDPP instead! Don't get me wrong, they're both great primers, i just find UDPP works better with my eyeshadows & my skin for some reason!
♥ Sephora Collection Professionnel Mineral Powder Brush #45 - I got this brush as a gift from my sister back in March and i can't believe i haven't blogged about this yet! I use this to apply/buff in my Bare Minerals foundation and it makes doing so a dream. It helps to build up the coverage and is super soft. I know some people use this for liquid foundation as well, but i use it for powder. It washes up really nicely as well & dries quickly! Can't recommend this brush enough, it's hands down a must-have for me.
The flash washed out the color quite a bit, but it's deffo a bright coral. :D
♥ Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in 525 "Peachy Scene" - Kinda bought this on a whim on my first ever trip to CVS. I've raved about this range of lipsticks so many times and they are definitely the best i've tried. I added yet another shade to my collection and this isn't a color i'd usually go for. I'd describe it as more of a bright coral than a peach, and it has a bit of a sheen to it. It's so nice for summer & i've gotten lovely compliments on it! If you don't want to do a full on red lip but want to venture out from nudes & pinks, i'd definitely recommend going for corals! :) Really adds a bit of color & interest to an outfit.

i love hearing about other peoples favorite products!
ReplyDeletealso, i am now fascinated by the "brow gel", do you have to rub it in? does it make your eyebrows all greasy? i definitely might try it!
and the paris scarf (is it a scarf?) is beautiful btw.
I'm specially interested in the lipstick. The colour looks really pretty.
ReplyDeleteI really like the Colour Sensational Lipsticks - that colour looks lovely! xx
