Makeup: June Favorites 2015

Woah! This is a ridiculously delayed favorites, and that's because I've been gone on a vacation. My family and I went on a cruise, and it was amazing! I highly recommend visiting the Chichen Itza Ruins in Mexico, the Lamanai Ruins in Belize, and Roatan, Honduras (the whole island!)

Without further ado, let's get to the favorites:

1. CoverGirl The Super Sizer Mascara in Very Black (Waterproof): This stuff is amazing! It lengthens and gives volume, and it has been my favorite throughout the month of July. I love this more than Benefit's They're Real mascara. It's my go-to eye look for the summer! Also, this stuff doesn't budge. I don't use waterproof mascara because it's a pain in the butt to remove. However, I decided to try waterproof for the summer and I'm glad I did! This doesn't smudge at all. 
2. L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte 24 Hr Foundation in 106 Sun Beige: I know, I know...I was supposed to make a review on this. But, if it's in my favorites you already know that it's good stuff! The foundation holds up all day, and creates a demi-matte finish. It performs well under humidity and heat (Texas weather approved!) 106 Sun Beige matches my current NC40 skin tone. While 104 Golden Beige matches my winter color of NC30-NC35.
3. Revlon ColorStay Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain in Honey: It just goes with everything! It stains well, and fades gracefully. Also, it's a little minty upon initial application. Is it just me? I don't mind it, but it caught me by surprise.
4. Clean & Clear Morning Burst Hydrating Gel Moisturizer, Oil Free: A great alternative from Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel! It absorbs quickly into the skin, and hydrates the skin fairly well. It's awesome for the summer so far. The only thing I don't like about it is its scent. The cucumber smell is overwhelming that it doesn't smell fresh. Smells like chemically enhanced artificial cucumbers to me *blech*
5. Aveeno Active Naturals Natural Protection SPF 50 Lotion: This works well for oily-acne prone skin! It actually acts as a primer for me, as well. It does have that sunscreen smell, but it fades away quickly. This is also Texas weather approved!

Until next time!
