August Humble Beauty Opinion #69 & Fashion Flashback!


My August Humble Beauty Opinion - my monthly subscriptions, purchases, reviews, 
wishlists & empties!

Let's start with Ipsy, as per usual! 
Already used up the Sol Janeiro "Coco Cabana Cream"- very sticky (see my empties below)
Already know I love the belif "eye bomb", 
have been enjoying the Adesse All Day Lip Cream in "Thames Street"
 & the Estate Dew Me Highlighter in "Lit" 
Still have to try out the eyeliner and the face mask

I picked the belif eye bomb for this month's bag 
& added on the sticky Sol Janeiro "Coco Cabana Cream" for $3
 & we got notice this month that Ipsy is about to make some changes...
including increasing the price to $12 a month...
We will see if the products will continue to make Ipsy a worthy monthly investment

Speaking of Ipsy bags,
I got this Real Egging Pack Moisturizing in July's Ipsy bag- loved this stuff, 
it was a little weird at first since you have to crack it open, mix it up 
but I loved the scent and it left my skin moisturized 
& I mean THE PACKAGING! 


I have been loving seeing all the color stories in these new Colourpop palettes
but I have not invested since I have a lot of eyeshadow...
I mainly want a few shades- "Delish" & "Daiquiri"

I think I am becoming OBSESSED with the "Asteria Pressed Pigment"

I also want to try one of these RealTechniques "The New Cleansing Palette" to clean my brushes:

I think beauty related memes are some of the funniest/most relatable memes:

This month's empties, what I used up, loved, hated 
& all my humble opinions in between:
bath: Revlon "Deep Burgundy"- one of my favorite hair colors! / Dr. Bronner's "Pure-Castile Bar Soap"- obviously a fave for how often we go through these! / Trader Joe's "Grapefruit"- these candles are so good, especially for the price, although this scent is not my favorite, I prefer the floral scents / Cozy Nights candle from Target- one of my all time favorites! / Real Egging Pack Moisturizing via Ipsy- you already know I love this stuff (see full rave above!) / Green Tea Facial Cleansing Tissue- I got these from the Korean grocery store but I did not like them as much as I thought I would, probably won't repurchase / St. Ives "Acne Control"- this stuff is the best! I have a generic version now but nothing is better than this original / equate "Feminine Wash"- got this one from Walmart and it was fine as far as these kind of products go

beauty: Dove "Advanced care" deodorant- a good basic but I prefer the gel formula / OPI "Nail Envy Strengthener"- this lasted a long time, I am not sure this actually does anything but I did get a new one / White Rain "Volumizing Mousse"- got this from the dollar store and it was a decent mousse, I need to find a good mousse / Trader Joe's "Coconut Body Butter"- you know I love this! I use about one a month! / empty pan- I have been using old highlighters to break into my lotion to give my body a glow this summer and I have been enjoying both using up some products and looking like a sparkly goddess / Sol Janeiro "Coco Cabana Cream" from this month's Ipsy- I love the yellow version "Brazilian Bum Bum Cream" but this Coco one is so much more scented and VERY sticky afterwards- not a fan / Jersey Shore Sun "Mongongo" lip conditioner- I think this was also an oldie from Ipsy and I really grew to love this, sad it is done / Soap & Glory "Pillow Plump"- as you may be able to tell this is not finished but I used it last week and the "slight tingle" is wayyyy too much for me, it is pretty but not worth that, bye bye / Peter Thomas Roth "Skin to Die For"- I loved this primer, such a good one, if you are looking to spend some $$ this one is great! I would consider it but literally have 10 primers to use up! / GlamGlow "Supertoner"- I heard great things about this and I did enjoy it but not sure I loved it, it has a licorice smell FYI / Rimmel foundation bottle- I actually used this product up a while ago but have been using this bottle as a little mixing station to use up other samples and make my own foundation blend, worked for a long time and it is time to say good bye to this bottle! / Tarte "Smooth Operator- got this sample and not sure it does anything special as far as setting powders go / Tarte "Amazonian Clay" foundation- this shade was a little dark but it I liked the coverage and formula, would definably consider purchasing when I am in the market / Wet n Wild "Brรปlรฉe" single shadow- I LOVE THIS, I used it everyday for my brow bone and under my eyes, need a new one ASAP! / Avocado Honey Rich Water Balm Cream- I loved this moisturizer, very rich so I used it as a night treatment / answer from "Luminous Collagen Eye Cream"- got this from Ipsy and I loved it, a nice basic eye cream (not sure they do anything but whatever) / Essence "Pure Nude" highlighter in "Be My Highlight"- I depotted this into a Z Palette and use it everyday as a setting powder to blend everything together in the end, I love it! With a more dense brush it is a pretty cheek highlight too / Physicians Formula "Natural Eyelight"- also depotted this I wish Physicians Formula would bring this back (with much slimmer packaging, this is ridiculous) It is so pretty on the inner corners and on the top of the cheeks / Buxom mascara- I barely used this mascara because it hardly did anything, hardly any lengthening or definition, definitely not my kind of mascara / 10/10 Optics Lens Cleaner- can't believe I finally used one of these up! I have been trying to clean my glasses more often and it shows!
