I can hardly believe summer is already over and it will be officially fall later this month. Time to say goodbye to coral lips, sun kissed skin & caramel macchiatos. Instead, it’s hello to vampy fall lips, pale skin and pumpkin pie spice lattes! Fall, I have missed you for almost two years now (there is no fall or spring in GA), but momma is finally going to see you again soon! September is going to be bittersweet for our family. At the end of the month, we are heading back to the midwest. We are super excited to be much much closer to friends and family. However, leaving GA is going to be a lot harder than I ever imagined. Saying goodbye to my friends Samantha and Amy is going to be heartbreaking. Just thinking about how we won’t see each other for god knows how long, or our kids not getting to play together makes my heart ache. Making friends as an Army wife is no joke, it is hard to meet people you click with in this lifestyle. But, it is even harder to say goodbye once you find those women, they become family. Ok, enough with the sad stuff. Back to my August Beauty Favorites!
Becca Cosmetics Champagne Pop & Sigma F35 Tapered Highlighter. Oh lord, if I haven’t already told you how much I loved this product in my review here, let me explain. I am still a newbie when it comes to the world of highlighters, but this one has quickly become an everyday product for me. In the month of August, I don’t think if I left the house (with makeup on) without this on my face. I even used it for my body, it looked great on my collar bones while we were in FL. I cannot get enough of this product. It will definitely follow me into Fall. Oh, and the Sigma F35 Tapered Highlighter Brush! These two are a match made in heaven! I am a huge fan of the Sigma brush lines and this is one if my all time favorite brushes!
Milani Luminouso. Beautiful peach with golden shimmer running through, this is the only blush I have been wearing. Luminouso is an oldie but a goodie drug store product. They aren’t that easy to find, because they are often sold out. That shows how much you need this blush if you don’t already have it. I tend to find mine at Walgreens. But I found it here on amazon, if you are willing to buy online. I would say that this is in my top ten of drug store products. It looks good on everyone, all ages and all skin colors and types.
Ellovi Lip Butter. This poor little guy has been through the ringer in August. He did not leave my purse for one second. If you haven’t heard of Ellovi you can read my full review here. They also have an amazing body butter that totally saved my skin this summer.
Infusium23 Moisture Replenisher Smoothing Crème. This product was sent to me in my Influenster Sunshine VoxBox. I used this brand wayyyy back in high school and honestly haven’t thought much about it since. HOLY HELL was I silly. This Crème seriously keeps my hair smooth for daysssss with out any greasiness. If you have dry, broken/hard to manage hair, you need to put your phone down/get up from your computer and drive to the drug store to find this product.
Dr. George’s Dental White. I heard about this product via another blogger/Jaclyn Hill from YouTube. This is hands down the best teeth whitener I have ever used. And that is a lot coming from me. I am a huge fan of crest white strips, but they always hurt my teeth. This gel never leaves my teeth sensitive afterward. The best part is that it can be mixed with tooth paste to keep teeth bright in between full treatments.
Skindinavia Finishing Spray and Primer Spray. My holy grail of summer products right here. I have been living for these sprays. Here in the south you need to pull out all the stops if you don’t want your makeup to melt right off your face as soon as you step out your front door. I have always been a fan, but this summer these sprays really showed just how amazing they are. You can read my full review on the Skindinavia Sprays here.
