Every month I upload a video onto my YouTube channel
discussing my favorite products that I’ve been using. For today’s post, I thought I’d share with
you all more details about those products that I wasn’t able to fit into the
video.
If you haven’t seen the video, you can check it out here:

Neutrogena Acne Stress Control Toner
This has been my new go-to toner, replacing my long used
Boots toner. If you’ve watched any of my
videos in the past year, you know the toner I’m talking about. I’ve definitely loved this product this
month. It works well, makes my skin feel
fresh, and is great quality for the price that you pay.
Aveeno Foaming Face Wash
I began using this product in Spring of 2013 when
MissGlamorazzi first recommended it. I
used it for a few months, and then moved on to another product. I’ve recently returned to, and have fallen
back in love. It’s a great refreshing
product for the skin, and really purifies the pores. I really like any foaming face wash, and this
is probably one of my favorites that I’ve used.
I’m honestly not sure why I stopped using it to begin with now that I’m
back with it again.
Essie “Fiji”
This polish has been one of the most talked about products
in the beauty community since it’s release.
I remember when I first began watching videos and following blogs – even
before starting my own was a thought – this polish was a major thing. I never thought much of it, since pale colors
were never my thing. But recently, I’ve
been on the hunt for the perfect pale pink shade that was actually opaque. All of the colors I’d previously tried were
very sheer and once applied, you couldn’t even tell I had something on. This, however, is perfection in a
bottle. The formulation is amazing, the
color is gorgeous, and it’s completely professional looking. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it since
I’ve started wearing it, I can’t believe it took me this long to purchase such
a staple color for any collection.
Sally Hansen Triple Shine “Dive In” Nail Polish
A widely discussed color for this past month, “Dive In,” is
the perfect summer color. It’s bright,
fun, and very beachy. The Triple Shine
line is fairly new to Sally Hansen, and this is the only polish I have from the
line. So far, so good. I have no complaints about the line.
EOS Lip Balm “Summer Fruit”
This is by far my favorite scent/flavor from the EOS lip
balms. I really like these balms in
generally as they are super moisturizing and soft on the lips, and they are
super affordable. This scent is more
“fun,” to me, than the mint on that I’ve tried, which just didn’t agree with
me. If
you’re looking for only one scent to try from the line, I’d recommend
going with this one.
Secret Deodorant, Destinations “Hawaii”
I first heard of the Destinations line of deodorants from
the 11th Gorgeous girls on YouTube.
There are currently three scents, each coming in a variety of
formulations (solid, gel, etc). The
scents are Brazil, Paris, and Hawaii. I
do not recall what the Brazil smelled like, but I do remember that the Paris
scent was to floral for me. Some of you
may remember that I’m not someone who particularly likes floral
scents/things. The Hawaii is a very
fresh scent with a hint of citrus to it.
Definitely more ‘me.’
Maybelline Illegal Length Mascara
This mascara has been talked about by Allison, or Amarixe,
on YouTube for so long, but I only just got around to trying it. And I’m in love. It really does add length to the lashes, but
also makes them look extremely bold at the same time. I can’t believe it’s not more talked about
within the beauty community! (I was also
a little too excited that Meghan Rienks talked about this product in her May
Favorites too!)
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Foundation
Lately, my Revlon ColorStay foundation, my favorite
drugstore foundation, has been making my feel cakey and not as fresh
faced. After hearing people online rave
about this foundation for years, I decided to give it a try, and it did not
disappoint. The formulation is definitely
light, but provides high coverage, which I love. It reminds me of my Bobbi Brown foundation in
that way. I’ve been wearing this almost
exclusively since I’ve purchased it, and I haven’t had any problems with
it. I’ve tried it with several different
kinds of primers and setting powders, and all options have worked well with it
as well.
NYX HD Translucent Powder
I’ve loved using translucent powders to set my makeup for a
while now. The first one I tried was by
Tarte, and recently I’ve been loving this one from NYX. Both are great in quality, and don’t leave
you feeling (or looking!) cakey by any means.
Translucent powders are definitely are a great alternative to regular
tinted setting foundation powders and I highly recommend checking them out if
you’re looking to liven up your makeup routine!
