September Favourites!!

hey beauties!

wow I haven't done a favourites post in a long time! this month was a really good one, I've gotten to try out some new products and fell back in love with some old favourites! and hey who doesn't love the beginning of fall time?

beauty:

Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Nude this thing is awesome! I use it on my waterline to brighten up my eyes and its just amazing! It has pretty decent staying power and it doesn't look as harsh as a stark white would! Highly recommend!

Maybelline Big Eyes mascara I really don't care for the top lash part, I'd mich prefer the Rocket but the bottom lash part is perfect! It makes applying mascara to the lower lashes so much easier and it coats each one perfectly! I do get a little bit of smudging by the end of the day but other than that it's a really nice product!

Revlon Super Lustrous lipsticks in Coralberry and Black Cherry (mentioned in my Fall Favourites Tag)I got these two probably about half way through the month and used them pretty much everyday since! Black Cherry is a little harder to wear daily since it's so dark but I make it work! Coralberry is a lot easier to wear and more of an everyday type color! Both are pigmented and very creamy! Absolutely love both!

Essie For The Twill Of It mentioned in my Fall Favourites Tag is such a beautiful color! It's a very fall color in ny opinion. I've been wearing it nonstop all month and probably will until I break out the Christmas colors! I'd try and describe the color to you but it changes colors depending on how the light hits it! Its just gorgeous!

Real Techniques Expert Face Brush I got this back when I was in Florida the summer but never really used it much since it was too hot to wear foundation but not that it's after cooling off and I started wearing foundation again I started using this brush too! It applies foundation beautifully! It leaves such a flawless finish! Even though the brush is kind of small, the bristles are so densly packed it makes application super easy! Definitely recommend this brush! You all need this in your life!


Fashion:

Knee-high Boots I've been rocking these pretty much all month long now, they're super cute and go with everything! Definitely a staple in my wardrobe!


Scent:

Bath and Body Works Marshmallow Fireside (mentioned in my Fall Favourites Tag) this has been burning all month long in my room! It smells so yummy! I love it!!

For perfume, I switch it up a lot but lately I've been reaching for Viva La Juicy Noir!


Body Care:

I've been using lotions like there's no tomorrow this month! My favourite thoough has to be Bath and Body Works Secret Wonderland! Its a softer kind of scent but reminds me so much of fall and winter!


Random:

okay I think I've mentioned before that I live in Canada so Tim Hortons is a big thing here which you may know, now they have this muffin out for fal, it's a Pumkin Spice muffin and it gives me life. I absolutely love them so much and I think I've spent a small fortune on them .. No shame

oh and also I tried the Pumpkin Spice Latte and Frappachino from Starbucks this month and enjoyed them both a little too much! #whitegirl


Movie:

I can't really rememeber if I saw If I Stay this month or last but either way it was such a good movie! Now I didn't cry at the Fault in Our Stars but I did cry at If I Stay .. once again no shame


I do believe that is it for my september favourites! I hope you all enjoyed and I will try to get back into doing these each month! (ps holiday season is literally right around the corner! but like I'm not excited or anything ..... Pft no ....)

stay beautiful my lovelies xo

Fall Favourites Tag!!

hey beauties!

so sorry about the lack of posts lately! everything has been so hectic!
but in all this mess I managed to find a fall tag floating around! Lindsey or beautybaby44 on youtube created this fall tag and I thought it was pretty cool so I thought I'd do it too!

let's get started!

- Fall Beauty Faves -
1. face product
hmm I absolutely love my Rimmel Stay Matte Powder!


2. cheek product
I'm really not into the blush/bronzer/highlighter scene to be quite honest although I've heard that Becca Opal is a gorgeous highlighter! (however $46 for a highlight is not really my thing)


3. eye product
love love love my Urban Decay Naked Basics palette! (definitely lusting after the 2nd one now!)


4. lip product
i couldn't choose just one but my two favourites are definitely Revlon Super Lustrous lipstick Black Cherry and Revlon Lip Butters in Raspberry Pie!


5. hair product
I've really been into the leave-in conditioners lately! the one I've been using is Regis Designline Normal Care Leave In Conditioner!


6. fragrance / candle
for perfume Viva la Juicy Noir and for candle BBW Marshmallow Fireside!


7. nail polish
I really love the darker colours for fall, especially Essie For The Twill Of It



- Fall Fashion Faves -
1. trendy clothing item
flannels! okay well I don't actually own a flannel yet but I really do love the look of them (are they considered trendy? who knows)


2. comfy clothing item
chunky sweaters/cardigans


3. shoes
knee high boots are probably my favourite!!


4. accessory
scarfs are theee cutest!

- Fun Favorites -
1. Halloween or Thanksgiving?
such a hard question! i really do love them both! since I live in Canada, Thanksgiving is before Halloween and it's not as big as it is in the states! I don't usually get to see all my family on Thanksgiving either. So I think that I like Halloween a smidgee better


2. Favorite festive food and/or drink
i've recently tried the pumpkin spice latte from starbucks and fell in loveee! and for food it has to be turkey<3


3. What's the happiest part about fall for you?
oh gosh, I just love everything about fall! It's so weird but stepping on crunchy leaves makes me so happy so i guess maybe that's one of the happiest parts about fall? oh and that it's starting the holiday season which is the best!

4. Who do you tag?
all of you :)

so that was the end of the tag! keep an eye out for my september favourites which will be up in the next couple of days!

stay beautiful my lovelies xo
