August Favorites!

Is August really over already?? I can't even wrap my head around the fact that the summer is already over and I'm back at school next week...to start my final year! yaahhh!

Hope you all had a great and amazing August! Here are some of the products I've been reaching for all month...
Revlon Whipped Foundation
I can't even say enough good things about this product. I'm going to do a review on it soon but overall it is...
  • LONG lasting even with oily skin
  • beautiful coverage
  • applied best with your hands(this is literally the only foundation that I will do this with)
Sigma Angled Top Kabuki Brush F84
This brush is seriously amazing and since the day it came in the mail (6-ish months ago) it has been the only brush I use to apply my foundation. It gives the perfect airbrushed look, gliding on the makeup so smoothly and effortlessly. It really blends the makeup into your skin and you'll never have to worry about it looking streaky. You can check it out HERE also use  SB2012  to get 10% off! 

Essie polish in "Bikini So Teeny"
Love love love this colour, it is so unique and is probably in my top 5 favorite polishes of all time.It's been my most worn all summer!
Tangle Teezer Brush

My hair is very thin but I have a lot of it so it tangles like you wouldn't beleive! This brush has been a serious lifesaver, especially when I get out of the shower and my hair is wet, you barely feel it even going through your hair. ( when I went to take a picture of my brush I could not find it anywhere! But here is a picture from the internet)

L'Oreal Colour Riche in "Pink Cashmere"

I picked this up last week but it became a favorite so fast! The formula is so smooth and moisturizing and there is something about it that just makes your lips look so nice and full! I'm in love with this colour, although I think I need to branch out and get some lip products that aren't in the pink tones!
Urban Decay eyeshadow in "Sin"
This has been a favorite for a good year in a half. It's the only colour in my Naked palette that I've actually almost used up. I actually had to go and buy a single eyeshadow because I love it that much. It's a beautiful all over the lid colour or paired with a shadow like toasted from the Naked palette.

& Some quick random favourites of the month...
  • Big Brother( It's starting to get so intense, I was all about team Ian but now I don't even know who I want to win!)
  • Mini Putt( Pat & I have been going so offten this summer. He is a serious golfer and I've beaten him almost everytime, he was not a happy camper haha!)
  • Iced Green Tea Lemonade from Starbucks( this isn't really a new favorite, I've just been drinking them like crazy all month!)

And last but not least... here are a few pictures from throughout this month!
Hope you all had a great weekend!
