This year is just going so fast before I realize. Anyways, these are some of favorites which I used a lot in the past month.

August Favorites 2016

NYX Liquid Suede in Softspoken: This is such a gorgeous nude shade and very similar to KVD Lolita. This is a matte lipstick but not at all drying on your lips and stays for more than 6 hours. This shade compliments every skin tone and goes well with any eye look or no makeup look. Click here for full review.

MUFE Ultra HD Foundation: This foundation is great for my skin type (dry). I love how my skin looks in photos with this foundation on. I had few events and function to attend and I used this foundation and my skin looked flawless with any dryness or patchiness. Click here for full review.

NYX Illuminator in Ritualistic: I am a highlighter girl. I love using highlighters but not intense and I loved how this highlighter looked on my skin. It is pigmented but not an intense highlighter and gives a very nice natural dewy look. You can always apply more for more intense look with this highlighter. Click here for full review.

Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer: This is one of my favorite drugstore concealer.  I love how this concealer gives a neat coverage and hides my dark circles. This is one of those concealers which never crease on me. The days when I don’t want to put any makeup but want to hide my dark circles and little pigmentation I always reach out for this.

NYC Liquid Eyeliner in Blackest Black: This is jet matte black. I used it almost every single day. This is a must try liquid eyeliner from drugstore and it’s just couple of bucks which is super affordable. Click here for full review.

May Favorites 2016

21 Comments

Its been a long time since I did my monthly favorites post but here I am sharing all my favorites from the month of May. It’s all mostly Makeup with just one skincare product. These are the products which I have been using to a large extent in the past month.

Maybelline Creamy Matte Lipstick- Craving Coral :

I am a lipstick sucker and I love matte lipsticks. This creamy matte lipstick has amazing formula and glides on so easily with a matte finish but doesn’t settle into the lines or dry out the lips. I used in the shade Craving Coral which is an orange with red undertone lipstick and I love wearing such shades on bright sunny days. For full review about the product click here

Garnier Micellar water:

I just recently discovered this micellar water and I love it. Waterproof Makeup comes off easily with this cleansing water and it also helps remove the dirt and impurities from the skin. For full review click here

Almond oil:

There are so many uses of almond oil but lately I have been using it for my under eye dark circles every single night before my sleep and wash my face the next morning with a mild cleanser. I have noticed considerable difference and won’t stop using it. You will not see any result overnight. Use at least for a month and I am sure you will notice the difference. I highly recommend this.

Wet & Wild Gel Nail Color:

I love this one step gel nail polish. It doesn’t chip and my manicure stays much longer. Overall I loved how this gel nail color. For full review click here

Jersey Shoe Spa Hydrating Balm:

I got this lip balm in my May Ipsy bag and I loved it. It’s a lavender moisture rich hydrating balm. I love the way it feels on my lips. I apply this before applying any lipstick and my lipstick glides on so smoothly especially liquid lipstick.

February Favorites 2016

It’s that time of the month again where I  love to share my  favorite  makeup and beauty products for February. I love putting these posts together and thinking back through the month to remember which products I used obsessively. This is my second favorites post in my blog and I am so excited to share these posts with you guys !

Olay Pro-X Cleansing System

I have been using this cleansing system generously the last month because my skin was feeling too dry and flaky due to winters and I badly needed this. I used this thrice every week.  This cleansing system gives  my face a deep down clean, it gets rid of old dry skin, and it prepares my face for the hydration. My skin feels so fresh and smooth after using this. It also prevents blackheads. Love this stuff !! For full review click here

Honey Oats 3 in 1 face Scrub Mask

Recently I reviewed this product and told you guys how much I loved this scrub mask. It helps in cleansing, polishing and moisturizing skin. For a detailed review click here

ELF eyebrow kit

I am really not a brow person. I never  used to fill my eyebrows and  just use eyebrow gel to set my brows but I always wanted to learn to fill my eyebrows so I purchased this ELF eyebrow kit because it’s super inexpensive ($3) and I dint want to spend fortune on an eyebrow product because I just started doing my brows and I must say this eyebrow kit is so good and I have used every single day in February month. I will do a full review on this very soon.

Hey Guys !

The month of January is over and I know I am late in uploading this post so my apologies. Lately I have been enjoying few products which I wanted to share with you all so here I go 😛

EOS Lip Balm:

This lip balm contains Vitamin E, shea butter and jojoba oil to keep your lips kissably smooth.100% natural flavor

Vitamin E Serum In Oil:

I have been using this for more than three months now and this is one of my favourite face oil which I use every single night.My skin feels recharged, replenished and softer. During winters skin tends to get dry and I personally experience this problem and by using this oil every night my skin feels smoother and soft.

Stila Liquid Lipstick:

This is by far my all-time favorite lipstick and I am obsessed with the way it goes on liquid and dries matte finish-all without drying your lips. Once it dries you can touch your lips and it won’t stain or rub off either. Stays all day long.

Mac Studio Fix Foundation:

This is my favourite foundation. It gives full coverage and lasts all day long. The quality and longevity is amazing. Perfect foundation for me to use during winters with a little of SPF. It has SPF 15 and be it summers or winters sunscreen is a must. So this foundation is best with minimum SPF.

Real Techniques Miracle Sponge:

I love how this sponge blends both of my foundation and concealer flawlessly. This gives me a natural finish and blends every product. In my opinion it is better than the beautyblender since it is cheaper, great quality and has a flat side so you can set the product better. Highly recommend this.

Hope you enjoyed !

Thanks!
