Hello Everyone! I'm here today to share with you the products that I've been using the most this month.
This month the weather here in Atlanta has been a bit crazy. One day it will be super rainy & then the next it's ridiculously humid so I haven't been wearing makeup a lot & when I do it's been very little.
Almay's CC Cream in light.
I'm not so sure about the CC Cream claim with this because to me it seems more like a tinted moisturizer that's a bit on the thicker side but not as thick as say an actual foundation.
Rimmel Natural Bronzer in Sun Light.
This is one of those products that I don't think I could live without. I've been using this with a big fluffy brush to set the CC Cream & some light contouring.
MAC Pearlmatte Face Powder in Pink Buttercream.
I have been like addicted to this thing. Highlighters in general are probably my favorite makeup products. I can't get enough of them. This one in particular is so pretty & can be quite natural looking or can be built up to a stronger highlight. I honestly don't think I have used any of my other highlighters this month.....and I have a lot. Haha.
Evian Facial Spray
This little beauty here is a life saver. It feels SOOOOOO good in this hot, humid weather here in the South. I like to spray it lightly on my face before my makeup & then throughout the day if I'm feeling really gross & hot. Face sprays like this are also nice if you have gone a bit too heavy with your face powders.
Revlon Colorstay Brow Enhancer in Blonde/Gold.
I don't really use the illuminateur side. Actually, I'm not sure that I've ever used it but the brow side is quite nice. It's a wax based pencil. It has a good amount of pigmentation & keeps my brows in place even in hot weather. The down side is that I got this during that big beauty sale that CVS has so I'm not sure if it's been discontinued or what the deal is because it was 75% off. I really hope that isn't the case though.
Sonia Kashuk Monochrome Eye Quad in Textured Rose.
This is a new edition to my makeup collection. As you can see I have already made a nice little dent in shade on the bottom right corner which, to me, is less of an eye shadow and more like pressed glitter...if that makes sense. While I do enjoy this quad it does have a couple cons. I personally don't think that there is enough of a difference in the shades to be able to create a complete look because you wouldn't be able to get any depth to the look. If you were just going for a one shadow look though this would be great. The next con is the price. As most if not all of you know Sonia Kashuk is sold only at Target so technically it's drugstore but it cost about $15.00 which to me is a bit much for a quad you can't even get a full look out of.
Sonia Kashuk Eye On Neutral Palette
I know that I've talked about this little guy quite a lot already but I just LOVE it. It's the perfect matte neutral palette in my book. I get so much use out of this no matter what type of look I'm going for. It's also perfect to pair with the quad above or any of her other quads.
Revlon Lash Potion in Blackest Black
I just pick this up about a week ago but I had to include it in this post. This is my new favorite mascara. I don't want to get ahead of myself here but I think that I may have found my holy grail mascara from the drugstore. It give volume & length, it doesn't clump my lashes, I haven't had an issue with what I call "raccoon eyes" even though this isn't the waterproof kind. It's just amazing. Plus, the tube is really pretty.
Well guys, that's all for now. What products were you reaching for the most during July?
Stay True & Stay You...
