I feel like I just posted my July favorites not too long ago! It's been a busy month and my last semester of graduate school is coming to a close. I'm pretty excited, nervous, and, did I mention, excited?! Below is a list of my favorite products this month. Enjoy!
1. Maybelline Color Sensational Creamy Matte Lip Color in Touch of Spice & Clay Crush: Oh. My. Gherd. These are my absolute favorite lipsticks this month. I cannot stop wearing them! They are creamy and non-drying when worn on the lips. They last pretty well, but are not food-proof. I usually wear Touch of Spice when I'm going out, and I wear Clay Crush for everyday. Both colors compliment my current NC40 skin tone--mad love for these two lippies!
2. MAC Matte Lipstick in Persistence: To reward myself for finishing my last summer class ever (maybe, I'm not sure), I purchased my FIRST MAC lipstick. I love this color! It's totally fall appropriate and comfortable on the lips. To tell you the truth, however, I prefer the Maybelline matte lipsticks ;) but if you're feeling particularly spend-y, this Kylie-Jenner-lip color is worth it.
3. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara + Covergirl the Super Sizer Mascara (Waterproof): This combination is amazing together. I love the effect of the Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara. It truly does give a volumized look. However, it smudges! It is not Houston-humidity approved. Sigh. I was pretty disappointed. To solve this problem, I topped it off with the Super Sizer--PROBLEM SOLVED! Not only that, but it serves to separate my lashes! It' a win!
4. MAC Select Cover Up Concealer in NC40: I'm not particularly fond of this concealer, but it is my correct shade.I squeeze a bit of this to mix with my tinted moisturizers. It offers a little bit more coverage, and it corrects the shade. For a lighter coverage, I mix this with my favorite sunscreen, Aveeno Natural Protection.
5. TheFaceShop Sheet Masks in Sebum Control, Red Ginseng, & Rice: These are my most favorite masks of the moment, and I use them once a week. The sebum control mask is very refreshing and leaves the face cool , the red ginseng wakes up the face, and the rice mask brightens. Moreover, it's cheap! Thankfully, there is a FaceShop boutique in Houston! If you guys don't have a store nearby, I have placed a link above.
For my next post, I'll be positing my everyday look (school/work/internship look!). Keep a look out!
Best,
Aly
