I know I know, it’s not quite the end of August yet. I’m jumping the gun on sharing my faves because some of these are so exciting, I just can’t wait! *Victory kick*
1. Bumble and bumble Thickening Dryspun Finish
I’m pretty low maintenance when it comes to hair, I keep it pretty simple. However, there are times when I want a little volume without the stickiness of a hairspray and Dryspun is the answer to that. You just spray it onto dry hair, right at the roots. I like to flip my hair over and get underneath it as well. It just gives a little volume and it’s super lightweight! $29/4oz. Sephora.
2. Bite Beauty Cashmere Lip Cream in Moscato
These are SO COOL! They go on creamy but dry to a matte, powder finish. It’s a really advanced formula that I don’t even understand, but it’s long-lasting and not drying at all. It has superb color pay off, the Moscato is BRIGHT PINK (my fave)! $28/0.26oz. Sephora.
3. Chloé See By Chloé
I’ve loved this fragrance since it came out, but I put it away for the summer months in order to wear one of my other faves. Now that fall is in the air, it’s time to get her out again. The top notes are jasmine and ylang ylang, with a little bit of vanilla and musk. The style is “Graceful. Feminine. Spontaneous.“ I’d like to think I’m all of those things (at least in my head I am…). $78/1.7oz. Sephora.
4. Nude Skincare ProGenius Treatment Oil
I raved about this skincare line in a recent post, but my absolute FAVORITE product from them is this oil. Multipurpose, for any skin type, it’s hydrating and packed full with natural plant oils and omegas. I use it directly on my skin at night, and mix one drop in my moisturizer in the morning. $78/1oz. Sephora.
5. Ole Henriksen Perfect Truth CC Eye Crème
It’s no secret that I love Ole Henriksen, I recently reviewed the CC creme for the face. The CC eye creme is a skincare/makeup hybrid, it’s an eye cream and a concealer. You can always custom mix your own, or you can save some time and use this little guy. This contains 5 sources of vitamin C, loads of hydration, and SPF15. Love love love. $26/0.25oz. Sephora.
6. Smashbox Always Sharp Waterproof Kôhl Liner in Bare
These liners are revolutionary! Why, you ask? It’s a retractable eyeliner that SELF-SHARPENS. Yes, it’s true. Never a dull tip with this one. It’s also waterproof and is safe to use in the waterline. I like all of the colors, but Bare (nude) looks fabulous in the lower waterline. It instantly makes the eyes appear bigger! $20/0.01oz. Sephora.
