Good morning beauties!! I'm so pissed off right now because I wrote this post, had lunch and when I came back my computer didn't save anything so I had to write everything all over again... I wanted to cry. Anyways today I'm talking about my favorite products from last month. I can't believe July is over and it's already August! Time literally flies and
Now let's get into the products I loved last month... I have
experimented a lot more than usual in July, probably because I had lots of fun occasions like festivals, bday parties and concerts. I tried out new products and create fun and edgy makeup looks. So I'm gonna speak about the best products that I have tried. Keep in mind that by new products I don't mean they are necessarily new on the beauty market but new to me, that I had never tried before.
First product I want to talk about is a foundation and it's the MAC Pro Longwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation. Let me say that I was never a fan of MAC foundations. I used to think they were not great and not worth the money, in fact MAC is not a brand known for its foundations. After
having bought this foundation I had to change my mind. This foundation is AMAZING!!! I was looking for a waterproof base, that would be great for dry skin too. I needed it for a pool party so you can imagine with a lot of sun and water. At the MAC counter I saw this and decided to buy it. I have to be honest and believe me, this foundation does a stunning job. It's medium to full coverage, light-weight and waterproof. It's perfect for summer because it doesn't fade away, melt or smudge. You don't have to worry about it because it resists to water and sweat and you don't even feel like wearing it. There is just one negative aspect about this product and it's the price-quantity element. It costs 34
$ / 33,50 EUR and it contains only 25 ml / .85 fl oz which is less than usual. Foundations usually are 30/35 ml. So it's a bit more expensive since you get less product for the same price as other foundations. However you should consider that a small quantity is enough to cover the entire face. I won't do a full review + swatches in this post but let me know in the comments below if you want it for a certain product.
Next thing I'm going to talk about is the famous Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. This is not a new item, I have had it for more than a year but never actually used it until last
month. I have always done rose gold, light pink eyeshadow looks before, but last month I got more into the nude and brown vibe. I started using this palette and I fell in love with it. It has the perfect browns, golds, nudes and coppers for bronze and glowy looks. I think summer is the perfect season to wear those bronzy, glowy and shiny makeup looks with tanned skin. Definitely a must for summer.
Price: 45 EUR / 49 $
Another product I really liked is the Make Up For Ever Smoky Extravagant Mascara. I never thought I would find a mascara that could top the Better Than Sex from Too Faced. This last one is the best mascara in the entire world, but I have to admit that the Smoky Extravagant is a worth competitor. It's not too pricy and the quality is good, it adds volume, length and curl. Plus its cone-shaped applicator helps reaching even the smallest lashes.
Price: 29 EUR / 24 $
Last makeup products are the Kylie Cosmetics Glosses and Metals. I have already done a complete review on the three original glosses that you can check out right here, as for the metals I will be reviewing them next week. So stay tuned.
As I have already said the quality is amazing. The scent is so good and the formula too. I have been wearing the glosses on a daily basis since I got them, they look stunning. While the metals are perfect for special occasions such as festivals, parties and concerts. They are so fun to wear and perfect for summer. Totally worth the price so go get them right now on kyliecosmetics.com.
Price glosses: 15 $
Price Metals: 18 $
This next product is a LUSH solid shampoo bar called Godiva. I have talked about this item in my post about LUSH Hair and Shower Products (right here), so if you want more details about it read that. I just want to say that it is vegan and 100% organic and natural. The scent is very good and the quality as well. I have been using this shampoo for eight months now and my hair has never been healthier before. Price: 9,95 EUR / 11,95 $
These two body products are from Victoria's Secret and they are a body lotion and a shower gel from the VS Fantasies Collection. It's the scent Coconut Passion which is one of my
favorites. It's a warm and tropical fragrance with coconut and vanilla in it. The body lotion combined with the shower gel provide moisture and hydration. They are on sale at the moment, so grab them at victoriassecret.com.
Price 20,69 EUR / 18 $ OR 2 for 11,49 EUR / 10 $
Next up is my current go-to perfume and it's from Bvlgari Perfumes. It's the latest addition to the Omnia Collection and it's called Omnia Paraiba. This collection is inspired by precious gemstones such as Amethyste, Coral... Omnia
Paraiba has been released in June and it is inspired by the Paraiba tourmaline which is a gemstone from Brazil. The notes contain Gardenia, Passion Flower, Cocoa Beans, Vetiver, Maracuja and Orange. It's very summery and tropical.
Price: 77,95 EUR 65 ml / 82,00 $ 2.2 oz
Last but not least we have the SEPHORA Face Masks. These are essentials, every girl has to have them. They are available in different scents based on the benefits and effects. For example the Pomegranate Mask awakes and
energizes the skin, or the Lotus Mask reduces fatigue signs. You can find what you need in one of these eight masks. They are made with natural fibers and natural ingredients. I use one every 3/4 days.
Price: 3,90 EUR / 6 $
These were my favorites products from last month. I hope you enjoyed it and if you want a full review with swatches on a certain product just ask below in the comments. I had so much fun in terms of beauty in July, looking forward to another amazing month for beauty and glam.
PS: Have you seen the Kylie Cosmetics Birthday Collection??? I'm dying for it, I want every single item.
Have a great day and see you tomorrow,
xoxo, Sofia
