October Favorites


I tend to stick with my favorites for a while before I switch things up. But I have some new products I tried and also a few old favorites this month.



I am very happy with this palette. I was contemplating on getting the UD's Naked Basics 2 but glad I picked this one up instead as the shades are much warmer and suit my skin tone better. It is still available in their sale section for CAD $19. Such an amazing deal and I have always loved UD's eye shadows.


Benefit Hoola Bronzer
I totally get the hype of this bronzer now. I got this from the Bronze 'N" Dandy set. The shade is just perfect. Not orange and not too dark for fall.

Laura Mercier Caviar Sticks in Amethyst & Moonlight
These are truly amazing eye crayons. I never thought I would fall for shimmery eye crayons. They are so creamy and pigmented. I have never tried any eye crayons which are so easy to blend. The two shades I use the most are Amethyst and Moonlight. Moonlight is a champagne gold shade which I use for the middle of my lids to brighten up any eye look. Amethyst is a chocolate brown shade which I use for my outer crease. I got these together with 2 more shades in a set which I am afraid has been sold out at Sephora online for the past week or two. They are having their VIB sale this week so maybe they  have restocked this if you are interested.

Urban Decay Naked Ultra Nourishing Lipgloss in Rule 34
Nice to re-discover this brownish nude pink lip gloss from my stash. I like apply this on top of some of my nude lipsticks. 

Bite Luminous Creme Lipstick Duo(Lychee/Musk)
I am so into Bite lipsticks and this duo is my go-to these days. Perfect nudes and if I want a bit of color, I apply the UD Rule 34 lip gloss. 


Shiseido Lacquer Rouge in RD529
I got this lip product from the GWP Shiseido set from the Bay a while back. As cooler weather is here, I like to switch things up a bit with darker lips sometimes. Berry is the color I like and this lip product is such a pretty shade. This is a liquid lipstick and just one coat is pigmented and thick enough. 

Have you tried any of these products?

  1. I've been hearing great things about the Hoola bronzer as well but haven't given it a go. Maybe I should. :] // itsCarmen.com ☼ ☯

    1. Hoola bronzer is probably one of the most hyped bronzer and now totally understand what the hype is about. Highly recommend this.

    1. with the 20% off, the UD palette is even a sweeter deal. I really enjoy UD eye shadows as they are super creamy and pigmented. Not much fall out from this palette.

    1. The Pulp fiction palette is really a nice surprise. With the neutral shades which you think you have them all from your collection but they turn out to be just a bit different. Such a great deal with deep discount. I am so happy I got it :)
