Better late than never(?)--- October & November Humble Beauty Opinions!
My monthly subscriptions, purchases, reviews, wishlists & empties!
As per usual lets start with my monthly subscription to Ipsy!
October:
What a good one! I love the spider web bag and picked the eyeshadow palette!
& November
This one is just okay- excited about the candle but it is tiny and not exactly a cozy scent for this time of year but will be nice for spring.
I do like the Kinship "Supermello Hydrating Gel Cream",
has a slight sweet smell to it and I like the way it makes my skin feel.
Other purchases that I have been loving:
This pumpkin spice body butter from Lidl is like wearing a fall candle (in the best way)
These fall candles from Lidl are also all so good!
Got lots goodies on my monthly makeup wishlists!
I used to love the too faced Chocolate Bar pallets
& this "Pumpkin Spice Second Slice" one is full of lots of pretty warm tones!
Also thinking about getting this "miser" shade from Colourpop:
Also interested in trying this Laura Geller Baked Balance-n-Brighten powder foundation
after seeing it in a sponsored post from @lauragellerbeauty 🔛 Instagram
Also interested in this set of three products from @genseebeauty
(another targeted Instagram ad 😬)
If you can't tell I am interested in pairing down and/or lightening my makeup routine
TBD if I actually do...
This OFRA "Green Screen" lip stick is such a fun idea!
Probs wouldn't wear it but I love this concept!
as seen on their Instagram:
Also would like to try these three products
as recommended by catherine_lockhart on Tik Tok:
I was very intrigued by this hooded eye cat eye tutorial shared by @ipsy 🔛 Instagram,
not going to lie I attempted it but it did not go well... I will have to give it another shot
I am still thinking about this sparkly web mani as seen on @pop_polished 🔛 Instagram,
& I NEED this "Disco Ball" polish from Cirque Colors:
Also obsessed with this webbed eyeliner look!
as seen on @colourpopcosmetics on Instagram:
Also love this Halloween mani as seen on @flashesofstyle 🔛 Instagram:
Can't we go back to Halloween for a while???
How is Christmas next week?!
Hard to keep up with Lights Lacquer these days,
some pretty colors in their zodiac collection as seen on @lightslacquer Instagram Story:
& the "Cocktail Hour" collection is so pretty too!
as seen on @lightslacquer 🔛 Instagram:
Also interested in getting some nail tools from Lights Lacquer to step up my mani game:
Loved this little horror collection from Smashbox Cosmetics
as seen on @Trendmood on Facebook:
I think I might pick up some of this Murad "Deep Relief Acne Treatment"
for when my cystic acne rears its ugly head during that lovely time of the month.
After a pretty convincing review from lalaluvbeauty on Tik Tok:
Also interested in trying this Drmtlgy SPF 46 + Foundation,
also along the lines of changing my makeup routine,
as seen on their sponsored Instagram Story:
I am still LOVING my "Missing Person" perfume from PHLUR
that my sister Bianca got for my birthday,
but I am intrigued by this "Electric Sky" perfume from Tory Burch
I haven't even gotten my hands on the first one yet!
I wish these came out in a travel size but with the same packaging because it is so cool!
as seen on @billieeilish 🔛 Instagram:
This "Cosmic Rocks" shadow from Charlotte Tilbury is STUNNING!
Would love to add this to my collection!
This month's empties, what I used up, loved, hated
& all my humble opinions in between:
beauty: Maybelline "160 Brightener"- I LOVE this, will repurchase every time and get a back up, helps brighten under eyes | Glow Organics "Energize Body Lotion"- I think I got this in a bump box? It was a decent lotion but didn't leave me too hydrated for a long period of time like a body butter does | Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula "Tummy Butter Stretch Marks"- this is too thick for my liking, hard to melt into the skin, prefer the lotion version but not sure it does anything regardless | Tubby Todd All Over Ointment- this is a baby empty, used this for Little Charlie's dry skin and I like it, wish there was more product for the price though | Sebastian Shaper Plus + extra hold hairspray- I had this in my work makeup bag- not a favorite but does a decent job | Trader Joe's Rose Water Facial Toner- I love this stuff and my hubby repuraseed for me, refreshing on the face | Earth Pure Organics "Willowbark Facial Tonic"- I got this from my facial at a salon and I really enjoyed it but according to the price on the bottom it was a little too pricy... | Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush in "70 Hot Tamale"- I liked this for a little while but now it is just old. I am just not a cream blush gal, I keep trying but so far not my go to formula
bath: Dove "Sensitive Skin"- this has been a go to for years now, a great basic! | Revlon "34 Deep Burgundy" x2- this is and has been my go to (you already know) | Schick Quattro replacement razor- still loving this do wish the googey part lasted longer | Origins "Flower Fusion" face mask in Rose- very rose scented but enjoyable! | que belle bath & beauty "relaxing lavender mud mask"- I LOVED this (more on this below because it deserves it's own shout out!) | one + other Jumbo Cotton Balls- is anyone else having a hard time finding cotton balls in store? I only like to use the jumbo size to remove my makeup otherwise I am using multiples | Mighty Patch "The Original"- I liked these, I do with they were a little stickier but they do work IMO | Laneige "Water Sleeping Mask"- I enjoyed this but nothing too special | Polaar "Nuit Polaire" cream- this is too scented and I feel like that cannot be good for your skin | Trader Joes "French Liquid Soap"- I love this hand soap and use it for cleaning my makeup brushes, smells expensive and it is a fave! | Grace & Stella "foaming face wash"- I liked this but I feel like it did not last very long and wasn't worth repurchasing it (I also have SO many face washes to try!)
Like mentioned above, I loved this que bella face mask.
I use a lot of face masks and was surprised by how my face felt after this one.
No idea where I got it from (bump box? new mom gift?) but loved it!
candles: Essential Elements "Lavender + Cedarwood" from Lidl- I enjoyed this, a nice fresh scent | Dia de los Muertos- this was a gift from my sister Bianca last year and I am sad it is done, such a cute jar and the scent was so good too! | Candle-Lite "Black Widow"- another good one from Lidl, love the jar design too! | Trader Joe's "Nutmeg"- I love these little candles but they are only good for like one day but they do smell nice! Hit or miss on the scent carry though
🕯️
Also shout out to this total nail GLOW UP:
So proud that I was finally able to kick my nail biting habit!
This is me regardless of the month:
