August Favorites

August 31, 2016

Wow this year is really flying by…. I can’t believe this the last day of August already! I definitely discovered some really awesome stuff this month both in beauty and fashion. This time of year is great because all the designers and brands bring out their fall collections. ( I’ll just warn ya’ll now- I seriously splurged this month) – Here are mini reviews about each item. Let’s start with the new releases.

This gorgeous Chanel eyeshadow in 128 Rouge Burlee which is so stunning, pictures do not do it justice. It a beautiful burned amber color that is so glittery and flattering on the eyes. It came with a brush, but to be honest I felt the eyeshadow applied better with my finger.

This YSL Vinyl Lip Cream Stain in 407 Carmin Session. Can I just tell you guys how much I love the YSL lip stains? This formula is new to their collections of stains and it’s a knockout. The feeling on lips is really light and buttery. It kept my lips moisturized and was a very comfortable wear. It didn’t settle in lip lines and wore for a good 8 hours.

Dior Nail Polish in Skyline. How perfect is this color for fall? It screams fall to me. This color is a super pretty reddened brown creme. The formula is great as are all Dior nail polishes, opaque in two thin coats and wears very well thought the week.

Too Faced Lip Injection Glossy on Spice Girl. So if you know me well, you know I am OBSESSED I mean CANNOT live with Too Faced Lip Injection gloss, one of my holy grail products. When I saw that they released the gloss with color, you know I took off running to my nearest Sephora to get it. I love this formula, it tingles and really plumps your lips. This color is so pretty and a perfect topper complementing my signature nude lips.

Dior Addict lipstick in 987 Black Tie. I love this beautiful berry lipstick that again is so great for fall. It wears like a very pigmented lip balm. It feels like a balm rather than a lipstick. I love this mainly because I don’t like committing to a super dark lip. This is half way there – LOL!

Nyx Liquid Black Liner. This liquid liner is unlike all of those other ones, in my experience, most liquid eyeliners are matte and kinda hard to work with. The formula dries down with a shine and was very easy to work with. The brush is so thin which made the perfect cat eye.

And for the Grand Finale these absolutely stunning Gucci Mules! You guys!!!!!! I cannot explain how much I love these. They kinda look like an old lady’s couch, which is why I think I liked them. I mean does old upholstery print ever go out of style? The treading and stitching is seriously gorgeous. I just love them.
