Monthly Favorites: June 2016

Hello Everyone!

This may be a bit of a surprise that I wrote a Monthly Favorites post since I really don't do these post on a regular basis. I thought since I've been really liking a few products during June I would write a favorites post.

1. Bath and Body Works Golden Pineapple Luau 

I absolutely LOVE this scent! I didn't think that I would love this scent as much as I do lol. I'm so glad I decided to test this in the store. It reminds me of a pina colada or being somewhere in tropics.

2. Younique Moodstruck Addiction Palette and Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Palette 

 

When I wore neutral looks in June (or makeup for that matter), these were my go to palettes. I may have only used the Gwen Stefani Palette once, but these shadows are gorgeous! I had to include it on my favorites list!

3. Maybelline Master Fix Setting Spray, Milani 2-in-1 Foundation + Concealer,  and Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser  

When it's not too hot to wear makeup, I like using these products. The setting spray keeps my makeup in tact during the hot weather. The Milani and Maybelline face products are very lightweight. (I'll be reviewing the last two in upcoming posts)

4. Colourpop Ultra Matte Lip in StingRaye

One of my favorite nude lipstick to wear.

5. Palmer's Eventone Suncare Cocoa Butter Moisturizing Sunscreen Lotion SPF 30 

I've been using this suncreen lotion a good bit last month and it has SPF 30

What were some of your favorites during the month of June? 

Here are my links to my reviews/hauls on some of the products mentioned

Victoria's Secret SAS: Summer 2016

Hello Everyone!

I was torn between writing this post since I really didn't get a variety of things from the SAS at Victoria's Secret this time. I'm going to be honest here the VS SAS really didn't impress me. There weren't that many good sales and most of the clothes I wanted were full price. Just like my Bath and Body Works Haul (I'll link that at the end of the post) I'm glad that I saved my gift and angel reward cards to do a little shopping. The only things I picked up were more sleep shirts since those were on sale. I love these sleep shirts since I can wear them as sleep wear or pair them with leggings or jeans and wear them as tunics lol.

A few more pictures

Did you shop at Victoria's Secret for the SAS?

My Thoughts 

This palette is going on my favorite eyeshadow palette list! You can probably tell by now that I have a slight eyeshadow addiction lol and this palette is a winner for me. This is my first time using Younique eyeshadow and I'm very impressed by the quality of shadows in this palette. The shadows are pigmented and long lasting. I think this is a good palette to have if you're looking for a eyeshadow to wear everyday looks. I love a palette that has a lot of neutral colors and there are some really pretty shimmery colors as well such as Brassy. This is the first palette in the collection (There are two other Addiction palettes) Fallout is very minimal and the colors pick up very well on my eyeshadow brushes. I also like how this palette is travel friendly and it has been an essential item in my makeup bag!

Younique Moodstruck Precision Liquid Eyeliner in Perfect and Precarious

Details

Go from a winged liner look novice to experienced cat eye connoisseur with this no-smudge, water-resistant, transfer-free liquid eyeliner.

My Thoughts

I started wearing eyeliner more this year, and this is a good eyeliner to use whether you're a newbie or more advanced user of eyeliner. I was sent Perfect (black) and Precarious (blue) and both work really well. They're easy to use when doing a winged eyeliner, and there isn't any smudging. Even those these eyeliners are matte, both eyeliners glide so smoothly across my lids. I've worn this eyeliner for most of the day without any fading. I'm glad that I received these items to add to my collection because the quality of these products are so good!

Bath and Body Works SAS: Summer 2016

Hello Everyone!

It's one of my favorite times of the year, the SAS Annual Sale at Bath and Body Works! I'm so proud of myself that I saved all my gift cards from my Birthday/Christmas just for this occasion lol. I'm really glad I held on to those gift cards because BABW had some good deals and my favorite candles on sale!

A few items I got for my mom :)

A better view

I've always wanted to get a duck, but by time I get to BABW they're usually sold out! I was in luck this time!

My current favorite scent! It smells so good!

Finally trying Georgia Peach and Pineapple Mango candles

It's not a SAS if I don't get my apple candles!

As you can see I started to burn my Watermelon Lemonade candle. The throw on this candle is pretty strong! 

Some Winter candles

All the candles :)

See this is what happens when your mom wants to go back to look in Bath and Body Works lol. I really like this scent. 

UPDATED...

I went back to get Endless Weekend Candles since the were finally on sale and few other items.

Shameless selfie from an early morning Mall run to Bath and Body Works lol

Here a few extra pictures that I posted on Instagram incase you missed them
