September absolutely flew by this year, it's so crazy you guys!! But as they say "time flies when you're having fun" and this month sure was fun. I feel like I'm finally starting to get comfortable in my new life attending college classes, visiting Mark in the city and awkwardly being home during the day! As hard as it sometimes feels, honestly life is great. I have been working so hard on some new blog stuff over the last week, today I started my capsule wardrobe (I will be posting about that soon!!) and tomorrow I'm headed to the city! I hope all is well for you! Here are some of my favorites products from the lovely month of September!
Loreal Lumi Cushion
Guyssss!! This stuff is so so so good. I know I just talked about this not to long ago in my drug store haul but it is really becoming one of my favorite foundations! It has such a beautiful, natural, dewy finish and this color (W2 Light Ivory) is perfect for my skin. I have been loving applying this with my new It Cosmetics Blurring Foundation Brush or a damp beauty sponge! Even though it's on the pricier side for drug store foundation I highly recommend checking it out!
Maybelline Master Conceal Concealer
Again, another favorite from my recent drug store haul! I won't go into too much detail since I have already discussed it pretty in depth in that post (be sure to check it out here). But I have been adoring this product, if you are looking for a budget friendly, high covering under eye concealer without creasing check this one out!
Too Faced Better than Sex Mascara
Ugh, why did no one tell me what I was missing out on with this one!!? I used my 100 point perk at Sephora to pick this little guy up and I am so OBSESSED. My lashes achieve so much volume when I apply even just one layer of this mascara. Plus it hardly ever clumps! I can't wait to purchase the full size when I run out!
St. Ives Oatmeal Scrub and Mask
As the chiller months are upon us (YAY FOR FALL FASHION) so is dry skin. I'm currently fighting the most annoying dryness all over my cheeks, but luckily this 2 in 1 mask and exfoliant has been saving me! Unlike many exfoliators I feel like this one is very gentle on the skin plus it smells like honey!
Colourpop X Kathleen Lights Lumiere Lippie Stick
I did a little Colourpop haul earlier this month and finally got my hands on this gorgeous lippie by my all time favorite Youtuber Kathleen Lights! The shade is the perfect mauvey nude (and get this, it's a total dupe for Urban Decay's Back talk!!!! More on that will come soon!) and so perfect for fall. Plus the Colourpop formula is super creamy and long wearing.
To wrap this post up I just want to share a few more things about how my month has gone! In my Happy Planner it has a monthly list to write down your favorite things you have been doing for the month so I want to start sharing what I have been eating, drinking, watching, etc! So here's what I've been up to...
Watching: Parks and Rec, that's about it! And Youtube as always.
Eating: Chips and homemade salsa every day
Drinking: Kiddie Cocktails! Every time I go to work I grab a little cup of sprite and cherry juice, I can't help myself!
Loving: Mauve lips
Wearing: Sweaters on sweaters on sweaters. I'm always cold.
Hope you had a wonderful September! I'd love to hear your favorites of the month!
XX,
Shannon
