May Favorites! 2015
Wow May is over? Such excite! Year almost midway. What??? How that happen? Time.
Lol. Jk. I am surprised May is almost over and I'm graduated already. I'm done with school! I mean I've been done with school for a few months now... but wow. WOW! Lol. Onto the favorites.
The Milani Shadow Eyes in Champagne Toast has been a total favorite this month... idk if these come in just like white bases... but this is possibly better than the UD primer potion! And I'm not a huge fan of these stick eyeshadows... but this one is completely fantastic! It really stays on all day and shadows will stick right onto it and you won't need to worry much about it at all! It doesn't crease and its a beautiful color on its own. If you were in a major hurry or like doing your make up on a train or something and you used just this on its own and then like a BB Cream or a powder... you'd be set!
The Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette is another favorite of mine. I love this palette... hate the packaging. I sometimes feel like I get into a rut with neutral palettes and I use the same looks over and over again and thats why I didn't pick this up for a while... but I needed something pretty for graduation and I was like "You know what? Not a bad thing to do the same types of looks if they work. Right?" And I picked this up again. And I'm going to try to go outside my comfort zone with this and do more different looks... but I kind of love Marzipan, Creme Brulee and Semi Sweet... so... yeah. Lol.
I've been using my Milani Bella Eyes a lot more lately too. I used Bella Pink recently and I just loved the way that it turned out. It was really cool and I was happy with it... so yeah! Bella Champagne is also a total drugstore favorite of mine. These are like my favorite cheap drugstore shadows and I like picking them up any time im in a CVS or a Wallgreens... these are just really good and I love them.
I've mentioned her a million times here, but my friend MakeUpBySheaa recently did a giveaway and hooked me up with some amazing goodies. I've really been loving the Mac MSF in Soft and Gentle... It is such a nice highlight! So gorgeous. There are definitely dupes for this... but they don't compare! This is my first ever Mac product... and its quite quite awesome.
The L'oreal Infallible Setting Spray too! I didn't think I'd like this and it seemed pricey to me... but it is amazing! I love it!
I also really love the eyelash curler she gave me which is from a brand called Emite. My lashes are always pretty full and long, so a lot of times I don't use an eyelash curler, but sometimes they get a little cray and bother my eyes and curling them really does make a difference. I have just a plain Elf one... this one is better. Its made better, it doesn't feel like its falling apart when I use it and it doesn't pinch me or anything which is a huge deal for me... I really like it!
I've been getting a lot more into my Benefit Boxed powders from the gift set I got in the fall... these are awesome. So pretty and pigmented and they last a long time too. I love the longevity of the Tarte blushes... but these are also really really awesome and worth checking out a full size. For the summer, coralista would be awesome... but overall I use Rockateur a lot!
And last but probably my favorite of all favorites... Buxum Shannon. Its based off my name. Jk... but it is really the PERFECT shade for me! Its a very pale pinkish lavender that I think could work with everyone... but I just love it... It goes with every look too! Its so pretty and I love that its named Shannon! Lol I totally would have bought it if I didn't love the color just because its my favorite brand of lipgloss and it has my name... but I also would have bought it even if it didn't have my name because its just the best color ever. It does have shimmer in it, but it doesn't look too frosty or feel very gritty. The ones with the girls names I think all have shimmer and they have ones that are full on lip cremes that don't have shimmer and are just cream finish. I know not everyone is a fan of shimmer, but these don't really show up like "HEYYYY LOOK AT MY FROSTY DIAMOND LIPS!" Lol.
Hope you guys liked these little faves!
Byeeeee!
