June 2012 Favorites

Skin Care: 

1.) Yes to Carrots Daily Cream Facial Cleanser: I use this in the morning. Great for people with dry skin, like myself.

2.) Burt's Bees Citrus Facial Scrub: This is my nightly scrub. It's gentle enough for everyday use. It's been great to my sensitive skin.

3.) Clean & Clear Advantage Acne Spot Treatment: I use this nightly as well to treat my acne break out due to the hot California Summer.

4.) The Balm, Time Balm White Tea Face Toner: I use this before the acne treatment. This is made for normal to dry skin. I tightens pores after cleansing.

Hair Care:

1.) Got 2b Smooth Operator Hair Spray: Perfect for summer, lightweight and holds curls and beach waves.

2.) Suave Waterless Foam Shampoo: Great for second day-hair. Especially now that its freaking hot 24/7, my hair becomes oily after a few hours I wash them. This takes away most of the oils in your hair.

Face Makeup:

1.) NYX Stay Matte But Not Flat Powder Foundation: My color is Golden Beige 08. This powder gives a silky feel to the skin. It covers some blemishes. It's great for the summer because it lets your skin breathe.

2.) E.L.F Tinted Moisturizer: My color is Nude. This is my lazy makeup go-to blemish cover up. It has SPF 20. Perfect for summer especially when you love being outside. Made with Aloe, Cucumber and has Vitamins A, C and E

3.) Milani Minerals Compact Makeup: If you want a matte bronzer, I suggest you use a powder foundation darker than your skin tone. I'm using the color Natural Tan.

4.) Neutrogena Healthy Skin 3-in-1 Concealer for Eyes: The color is Medium 15. Another great product for sunny days. It conceals dark circles, works as an eye cream and protects like an SPF 20 sunscreen.

5.) The Balm Hot Mama Blush: Beautiful coral blush that adds color and glow to the skin.

6.) Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso: This is a blush but for my skin tone, it works great as a highlight.

7.) Tarte Mineral Bronzer in Park Ave Princess: Adds golden highlight to the skin. Great for people with tan to dark skin tone.

Eye Makeup:

1.) L'Oreal Wear Infinite in Bronzes: The colors can be used by themselves or mixed altogether. Perfect for summer looks.
2.) Rimmel Lash Accelerator Mascara: gives your lashes drama which makes the eyes pop even without eyeshadow. It also has a lengthening formula.

3.) L'Oreal Voluminous Million Lashes: Gives the eyes beautiful volume without clumps.

4.) NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Brown: These last all day and matches my hair perfectly. 

Lip Makeup:

1.) Nivea, A Kiss of Milk and Honey: I use this every day to prep my lips for lipstick.
2.) MAC lipstick in Modesty: Cremesheen finish. Perfect pinky nude for myself.

3.) L'Oreal Color Riche Balm in Caring Coral: For days when I don't feel like using a lipstick. It gives a sheer tint to the lips and moisturizes very well.
