July Favourites 2012

Hey my lovelies,


I am here with another post on my July favourites! I've finally gotten everything worked out on school and my health so I'm glad to get back on track with making YouTube videos and of course, posting here on my new blog! If you're not subscribed to my YouTube channel, I'll link the video at the end of the post for you guys!


So, the things I have been loving for the month of July (it's not much and they are kinda random...this whole month I haven't been wearing make-up at all unless I go out so yeah...hahaha)


Sephora compact mirror: I love this mirror so much! It's actually so convenient. I use it of course when I do my make-up every day. The two mirrors actually are different views. One is more magnified and the other is just a normal view. I love to use this especially when I use my liquid liner because I can easily see the strokes and touch up in places where I missed the application. I got this from a gift card from my friend Jessica for my 19th birthday! I just though it was a very cute and quirky idea from Sephora! Not only did I get this nice mirror I also got money to spend there. 


Nars Duo Eyeshadow Compact in 'Hula Hula': I cannot rave about this product enough! I recently purchased (I put it in a recent blog post) this eyeshadow duo and I absolutely fell in love with it! I'm a sucker for eyeshadows, preferably pink, and this is just one of the most gorgeous shades I own! The pink as I mentioned before is a strawberry pink with golden flecks and it is just gorgeous on the lid. The hazelnut brown that comes in the palette, I think, is Buck from Urban Decay with an edge. I really love to use this for a neutral eye and you can definitely jazz it up too. The NARS duos are always so complementing to each other. I think I might have to purchase more!


Tokidoki Kabuki Brush: Okay, you seriously all might shoot me because I also talked about this in a previous and very recent blog post...ahahah. But this kabuki brush. I. love. it. I been searching for the perfect kabuki brush and I have definitely found it. The bristles on this are so soft and applies my powder that I used to set my foundation amazingly. And, it helps that it's purple too..how cute! Also, it was 16 bucks...I feel like I stole it.




In general, face wipes: I have always been a makeup remover + cotton pads kinda girl when it comes to taking off my make-up. I used to use baby oil to take off my make up but then my skin started to become oil itself and everything was just a mess! My skin used to just be normal/combination but out of the blue it started to become more combination/oily. So I switched out to make-up wipes..and can I say, why haven't I used this before!? Super convenient and fast. Sometimes I even just use this and go to bed...but....shhhhh.


L'Oreal MagicLumi Concealer: I always wanted to try a lighter concealer under my eyes and down the bridge of my nose to act as a highlighter. I have a powder highlighter which I love, MAC's Whisper of Gilt from the Extradimension collection, but there are days when I feel like not having so much glitter so I tried this product. It really does what it's named after, it il"lumi"nated the areas where I wanted to highlight and covered up my dark circles. This product is amazing!


Philips Suction Cup Battery Pack: I know this is a really really random favourite but I love it! It's so convenient (as you can tell conveniency is very important to me) if your battery is running out, just put this on and instantly gives your phone a boost of energy! You just charge it on your computer and when you think you might need it store it in your bag! It's not bulky like most battery packs I've seen. I love it. And, I got it at Princess Auto. Random? Random.


So, that is all my july favourites! If you want to see a video version of this and shorter you can watch it below (also if you just wanna hear One Direction in the background you can also watch the video...)




Until next time!
