I've decided I want to do monthly favorites so I am kicking it off with my May favorites. I know it is now June but it took me a little while to collect all of my favorites, please don't judge me.
Bali Sunrise Candle
I bought this candle in the medium size from Target for $10 this brand has small ones for $5 and large ones for $15. The medium is about the size of Bath and Body Works candles. This particular candle smells just like the ones they burn in Anthropologie, which I'm pretty sure are infused with something that makes you want to buy overpriced things. This candles burn time is 50 hours which is fantastic; Bath and Body Works have a burn time of only 20 hours. Another huge plus of this candle is that it is a soy candle instead of paraffin. This means that it burns longer, the scent is stronger and carries further, and it burns cleaner which means it doesn't produce the soot that paraffin candles do. Soy candles are also better for you to breathe in than paraffin. Get this candle here.
How 'Bout Them Apples Cheek and Lip Palette
I purchased from Hautelook half off for $16. It is seriously the best cheek palette in the history of ever. It has six different colors that work well with most skin tones. They blend easily and do not feel heavy on the skin. I have found that they work well with foundation as a base as well as by themselves, though I do think they work best with a primer. I love that this doubles as a lip palette, and it actually works for lips as long as you are wearing some kind of lip balm underneath. The colors are highly pigmented and are very versatile through the seasons which is great because palette usually don't transition through seasons very well. You can find the palette here.
Pineapple Sunset Perfume
I purchased this from Anthropologie for $16, they no longer have it on their website but I believe it is still sold in stores. I love this perfume because normally pineapple is almost always combined with coconut and it's not in this perfume. Don't get me wrong I love coconut perfume but I love how unexpected this is and how well the floral, fruity and spicy scents mix. It is the perfect fresh summer scent and the packaging is adorable.
Charcoal Biore Strips
I bought these from Target on a whim because I love the Biore charcoal facewash so I figured these would be amazing and they are. When I get blackheads they are always super stubborn and these actually pulled a lot out. My mom also tried them and she loved them as well. They are just like the traditional Biore strips but they have charcoal in them. Guys these are seriously amazing and you need to go buy them now and enjoy them and love them like I do. There are about $6 from Ulta (this is where they are the cheapest) here.
MUFE Aqua Eyes in Metallic Teal Blue.
I got a sample of this eyeliner from Sephora and I LOVE it. It is such an awesome eyeliner it has amazing pigmentation and glides on so easily weather you put it in your water line or on your lid it looks fantastic. I have not had to sharpen this liner yet, even after multiple uses. It lasts all day and I am in love with this color, I love putting it on under my bottom lashes for an unexpected pop of color. I have not tried any of the other colors but I have heard they are just as great. From Sephora a full size costs $19 and you can get it here.
