August Favorites


I haven't done a monthly favorite for a while since I usually stick with products a couple of months at a time. Since I have done some re-organizing of my makeup products, I have re-discovered a few items I have forgotten.


Let's talk about my re-discovered products first:
Chanel Aqua Lumiere is the perfect summer foundation. It is light-weight and still gives enough coverage. I forgot how much I love this before and haven't got around to use it for so long.

Too Faced Chocolate Solei  bronzer is my go-to bronzer for the most part this month. It is such a nice soft brown shade. Easy to apply as a contour and an overall bronzer. Not to mention the yummy chocolate scent.

I just got the Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector in Rose Gold earlier this month and have been using this non-stop daily(see my post for swatches and review). I like to pair it with Benefit Rockateur blush which is also a rose-gold toned blush. 

Another Benefit Product I love this month is Benefit Gimme Brow. It is such an easy product to use on brows on rushed mornings. It gives texture and I like to fill the beginning of the brows with this to give more shape and texture to make my brows fuller. 

Dug out my YSL Rouge Volupte Shine lipstick in Orange Impertinent from my lipstick collection and forgot how much I adore this lipstick. It is such a pretty coral orange shade which looks awesome in medium skin-toned gals like me. 

Last but not least is Kat Von D Tattoo Liner.  Just love how easy it is to do winged lines these days which I thought was impossible for beginners like me. It is pigmented and true black. Lasting power is amazing on my eyes, even on hot humid days. I did have to re-apply a couple of times when it was super humid out. But overall, super impressed with this liner and I love this so much that I already bought a backup.

What have you been loving this month? Have you tried any of the products I love?

    1. yay, glad we have the same taste :) The YSL lipstick last a few hours on my lips as it is quite moisturizing and usually those formula doesn't last too long on me.
