August Favorites!!

SO I didn't get too much stuff this month but the things I did get, I love!!!


Rusk Sensories Bright Shampoo and Conditioner.......

Amazing for if you have unwanted brassy or yellow tones in your hair, whether it's a ll over or just highlights, works so great to brighten and remove the yellow. I had some really yellowy pieces in my hair and I used it twice and so far it has really helped! I use both the shampoo and conditioner and just follow the instructions on the back..... you leave them in for maybe 3-5 minutes and then rinse. BUT IT DOES WONDERS!!! I use it once or twice a week until the color gets to the shade of blonde I like :)


It is a little drying to the hair though, so I would recommending using some form of deep conditioner in between uses. I really LOVE the Its a 10 Hair Mask. It smells amazing and makes your hair feel and look like silk. Ususally once a week for about 10 minutes is perfect :)

















The next products are for skin. I just started using them and have already noticed a difference! My skin is oily and acne prone and right now have major hormonal break outs on my chin and jawline :( As soon as I started using this I noticed that my pimples were drying up and new ones were way less :)

Plus its organic so thats always nice too and the smells of both of these products are amazing!!!



Kiss My Face Grapefruit & Bergamot Foaming Soap ( also removes eye make up with out the burn ) SMELLS LIKE CITRUS!!! YUM :)

Avalon Organics Balancing Facial Toner (vitamin c)

This stuff smells like orange juice, doesn't burn or irritate my sensitive skin and leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated, not tight at all.












For make up I really didnt buy any this month but I did get sent some fabulous products from Physicians Formula. They have there sets out for blue, brown, green and hazel eyes that include coordinating eyeshadows, mascara and cream eyeliners. The colors are so pretty, stay on for a long time and I like to try all the different eyecolor sets cuz they are such beautiful colors :)

This is obviously the one for my eye color, it has beautiful golds, navy blues and light sky blue tones and it makes your eye color really pop!

The concealer that they make is also really lovely to use. It goes on easily and does not settle in the fine lines around your eyes. It's very lightweight and almost disappears into the skin like you haven't got anything on but you look way better LOL! :)















For Bronzer I'm totally loving the Lorac Hot Flash Duo, the pink is such a beautiful shimmery color and the bronzer is the perfect contour shade!!! A little goes a long way too, it's super pigmented!!

SO there are most of my faves this month, I'll have my video up soon so you can see the real deal in person!!! 

Thanks so much my loves and hope you all had a fabulous summer!

New skincare!!! Kiss My Face and Avalon Organics

SO I went to walmart the other day because I'm just not liking my Neutrogena facewash anymore. So I was thinking maybe I should get something more on the natural side, seeing as I'm pregnant..... I'll be more nature friendly!!! LOL.

I picked up these two products and so far I'm loving them so much!! After 2 days I've already seen a noticeable difference in my pimples and my skin feels softer so I'm hoping within the next few weeks or month I'll be super duper luscious!!!!

The first Product is the cleanser that I use morning and night..... and it removes all of my eye make up as well, without stinging the eyes!!! So that's always nice, the smell is very yummy almost citrusy, and the feel of it is so gentle it almost feels like foamy water on your skin...... Also when you rinse your skin doesnt feel tight at all, it just feels clean and soft!


Kiss My Face Grapefruit / Bergamot Soap
8.75oz.

Instant foam, the direct result of the pump action without propellants. It's a miracle. No time wasted working up a lather. Cleans thoroughly but leaves your hands soft and smooth.

GOOD FOR YOU BECAUSE...
Aloe Vera Gel: healing and soothing
Orange: cleansing and uplifting
Lemongrass: antiseptic skin cleanser 

$7.95



The second product is a toner. It smells like oranges and feels very gentle on the skin and I do have sensitive skin!! It doesn't burn, irritate or make my skin red which a lot of other toners do. It also doesn't leave your skin feeling tight afterwards, it almost fells moisturized after you have used it. I got it because it is organic and I thought maybe the Vitamin C, would help with my sun damage on my forehead and cheeks. So far I've only used a few days so I havent noticed any lightening of the dark spots but my skin feels much softer and the zits are going away!!!! WOOHOOOOO!!!!!
