May Favorites

Hola chicas!

Is it just me or is this year flying by?? I can't believe it's already the middle of the year but I'm happy because it's summer and the weather is - usually - beautiful! Without further ado here is what I loved in the month of May!



EOS Lip balm - I had been seeing this adorable lip balm all over the place and finally took a chance to try it out. I actually thought "what on earth is so special about this thing" while buying it. And now it's my favorite lip balm! I'm surprised because I never thought I'd find anything better than my Burt's Bees one. Formula of this lip balm is just amazing, it's super moisturizing and makes lips feel oh so smooth. I've been using this right before I apply my lipstick, works out great! I think this lip balm may be the solution to our flaked out lips due to dry/matte lipsticks! I have it in summerfruit and it smells very fresh, think a sweet and fruity scent nothing overwhelming though. I also love the fact that it's formulated without parabens! yay!

St. Ives Green Tea Scrub - I've been using this scrub for quite some time now and I am so happy with it. I was unfortunate to have a few breakouts here and there (Hello stress!) this month. Thankfully this scrub works like a charm and helps decently clear nasty breakouts, in addition to my Queen Helene's Mint Julep mask. They are perfect together! I use this scrub almost everyday, I think it's gentle enough to use daily.

Revlon PhotoReady Foundation - Made a come back in my life this month. I had stopped using it ever since I purchased Color Stay. I randomly thought of using it a few weeks back and had forgotten how amazing this foundation was, shame on me! Has been my go to foundation in May and I love it!


Wet n Wild ColorIcon Palettes - I almost have the entire collection, just missing one of the palettes :) The colors in these palettes are very beautiful, pretty pigmented, they blend easily and stay on all day! Love'em!



MAC Peaches Blush - If you've seen my comparison of Peaches to Illamasqua's Lover blush then you know they could definitely be dupes of each other. That's what it looks like if you look at them swatched on my hand. However, they do look different on my face. It's hard to explain! This month has been a pretty peachy for me as most of the colors I used are from the peach familia!

Revlon Colorburst Lipstick in Soft Nude - I just can't get over this lipstick. I don't even need to say much about it. It's the perfect nude lipstick. Other nudes got nothing on this baby!

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in Coral Reef  - My current go to lip gloss. Pigmentation of this lip gloss is unbelievable. The color is a vibrant coral that looks beautiful by itself or applied over Soft Nude (and I'm sure many other lipsticks). Formulation is not sticky at all which is a plus for me!

What couldn't you girls get enough of in May??

  2. I gotta take a peek at that coral lipgloss, beautiful!
    How would you compare the EOS balm to the BB's? I use BB before my makeup regime and I like it as it puts a barrier on my lips, but if they're really chapped from the wind or cold, I feel like it doesn't moisturize enough. I feel like I'm just sealing off the dryness, I guess I got used to the slight grease feeling of the super medicated Blistex.
    Oh and I love St. Ives too :)

  5. Trying the Coral Reef over a nude lipstick may be my best bet. I did a review on it a few days ago and can't say I'm a fan just yet.

  11. Just came across your blog and I heart it! I'm from the UK and Revlon decided not to give us Soft Nude, SO unfair! XxX
