July Favorites 2016!

                            

                            

I can't believe it's almost the end of July! This summer is really flying by. Before we know it, it's going to be fall. Anyways, here are the products that I've been loving this month! Almost all of them are new to me. The milani blush is the only oldie but goodie. I pulled it back out and started using it again.

                                  

This really is no surprise. It's probably in a lot of favorites this month. This palette is gorgeous! You can get so many looks from it and it's pretty unique. I wasn't sure how I was going to like the reds/pinks but it works out great. I have made a few different looks with this and have loved them all. The shadows are so soft and pigmented. I will say, they do give up some kick-up but that's not the worst thing in the world. This is definitely worth every penny!

                                  

This foundation is amazing. I have normal to combination skin, depending on the day. I was worried that this would make my t-zone extra oily. I'm so glad to say that it does not! This foundation is so light and feels so good on the skin. It makes your whole face look like you just have a radiant glow from within. It's not over the top at all either. It looks so natural and it is very long lasting. This foundation has made it through some terribly hot, humid weather! I will be purchasing a lighter color of this for the winter. My current color is 203- Nude Beige. I love this!  

                                    

This is the most beautiful packaging for a blush! I was so scared to use it at first but I'm pretty impressed with how well this rose shape lasts. I have two of these shades but for some reason have been really drawn to this one. This is the shade, Romance Rose, in 01.This shade is just perfect! It's light and it will build up beautifully. This lasts all day too. I do need to get my hands on a newer one that was released this summer. These blushes are amazing. They are a little pricier for drugstore but so worth it.  

                                   

I purchased this with my Birchbox points because I've heard so many people talk about it. They were right to. This is the best setting powder! It is the loose translucent powder. I love how it feels so soft and silky on my skin and a little goes a long way. There is so much product in here that the steep price tag, is really worth it. This just makes my face stay oil-free all day. I love how there is hardly any flashback when I take photos too. I was using the Tarte one and it really gave back a lot of flashback in pictures. You need this setting powder in your collection!

                                  

I happened to throw this in my cart when I was making an Ulta order last month. It was in the just arrived section and I was excited. I'll buy just about any highlighter and this was less than $5 bucks! It's in the color, Be My Light -10. Oh my gosh, you guys! This highlighter is all I have been using this month. It's amazing. I didn't swatch it because it doesn't do it justice. It goes on the face so much better than it looks on a swatch. I get the most beautiful glow from this. It's not too subtle but not too crazy. It's actually perfect for those low-key or no makeup days. I love this so much. I was even more excited when I saw that Kathleen Lights talked about it!

                                  

I had to dig this out of my purse for this. I have been loving this color this month. It's the color Petal de Rose by Jouer. It's so creamy and dries down to a matte finish. It's gorgeous and lasts such a long time. I do have to re-apply touch ups after eating but that's no big deal. It just feels so light and good on the lips. I forget that I'm wearing anything and it's so hard to find a product like that when it's a matte formula.

                              

I wasn't going to and I tried not to ever buy anything from the Kardashian/Jenners... I honestly had no idea this was a Kylie Jenner line when I purchased this. I was quickly walking though target, saw the great color and threw it in my basket. It's the color, Denim and Bling, in the Matte finish. I bought this for my toes when we were going on vacation to the beach in May. Guys, I have re-applied this every time, since then. It's seriously so gorgeous. It dries down to a matte finish but the color and the glitter are so unique to my collection. It looks like a mermaid tale on my toes. I love this so much and it really bothers me. I have this thing against the Kardashians. It's so unfair and so stupid but I just do not want to support them in any way. They are literally famous for NOTHING. So, I have refused to give into the Kylie lip kit hype and all that. So... I was pretty sad when I realized what I had purchased but I don't regret it. Although, I should have realized when it was more expensive than the norm. The color is amazing. It does a pretty great job lasting on my toes for a while too. I was really surprised since it's sinful colors.

                               

This is one of my first purchases from LUSH. I also bought a bath bomb that I loved too! I should have taken a picture before using it. Anyways, this stuff is amazing. It really does smell like coffee, which I love. I have been using this on my face in the mornings, especially, when I didn't get to bed at a decent time. It seriously does what it says!

"A rich and robust mask with ground coffee to leave skin radiant and smooth."

I feel like it just wakes me and my skin right up! You leave it on for 10 minutes and rinse it off with warm water. Your skin looks and feels amazing after. I had no idea what to try and I'm glad that I picked this out! I am kinda becoming obsessed with LUSH, the  more and more I use this!
