♥ October Ipsy Bag ♥

heyy girls,

last week I received my October Ipsy bag and I thought why not show you what I got in this month Ipsy bag ;) Here is what I got...

 
The first thing that I got is this pack of 10 facial wipes from La Fresh. It says that it is oil-free, biodegradable and compostable wet wipes made of a natural formula. I think this is more of a refreshing type of product more than a makeup remover. I haven't tried it yet but I am very excited to see if this is great or not.

 
Next, I got something that I was very excited about; I got a Zoya nailpolish! I was SO happy because I've never tried this brand before. The color is very pretty too. I think it is called Giovanna but I'm not sure. It is a pretty emerald green which is perfect for this season. I've tried it on two nails as an accent color and so far I like the consistency and the pigmentation.

♥ September favorites ♥

Heyy girls,

this month has gone by very quickly and it is (again) that time of the month where I present to you the products that I've been loving through the entire month of September.

To be honest with you, I don't have new things that I've been loving, only things that you've seen in the past. But I thought I'd showed you anyway since I personally love to know what others have been loving. For me, if a product came up many times through the monthly favorites, it means that it is THAT good of a product. So here are my favorites for this past month...

 

 The first thing that I've been loving doing this month is quick makeup look. This month I have been crazy busy with school and simple makeup has been my go-to look. For an example I've been concealing my under eye circles from my lack of sleep with my Garnier Roll-On concealer in light to medium. Next I used my Naked Basics (almost everyday) since I had every color that I needed to do a simple eye makeup look and to fill in my brows. So I've basically been wearing W.O.S on my lid, Naked 2 in the crease, Faint on the outer corner when I felt fancy and Naked 2 to fill in my brows. Mascara. Lip balm. Of course. Maybe some powder when I felt like I needed it. That's it. 

 

 
My next favorite has been my First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream (I did a review here). As you know the weather is changing, leaves are coming down from the trees, the air is getting colder, everyone is sick already and as a matter of fact, your skin is getting dryer and dryer and dryer. Well, I discovered a nice face moisturizer from the brand First Aid Beauty and if you want to know what I think about it I suggest you to read my review ;)

☆ Review: First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream ☆

Heyy girls,

I've decided that I want to do things a little bit different on my blog from now on. First, I am not going to publish post on Tuesday and Friday anymore because I am too busy with school and stuff, I will be posting at least once a week on a random day each week. Also, I will be doing more reviews and first impressions, I'll also try my best to do more fashion post like OOTD ;)

I also wanted to quickly mention that my first blog anniversary is coming soon. It has been almost a year now since I've started my blog and I want to thank everyone that has been subscribed to me or left me nice comments. This is why I am going to do a giveaway soon and it will be international, so wherever you live you'll be able to participate :)

Now let's move on to the review...

I bought the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream a couple of weeks ago at Sephora and I've been using it since then.

I have sensitive skin and right now it has been more on the dryer side. This is why I was looking for a new moisturizer, plus I ran out of my Clinique dramatically different gel (which was too much of a light moisturizer for this time of year).

First, I'll talk about the packaging. I got the smaller size that they offer. It comes in a regular tube as you can see from the pictures below... It's nothing fancy I like it. The packaging is different though for the bigger sizes.

 

I like the consistency of the Ultra Repair Cream. It has a thick and rich consistency. It is also very moisturizing without being greasy or too heavy on the skin. It doesn't leave you with a shiny finish since the product get absorbed into your skin somewhat quickly.

♥ Review: Lush Ocean Salt ♥

Heyy girls,

since the cold weather is coming up, I was on a hunt for a good facial scrub. I've tried many brands like Simple and Micheal Todd but I didn't fall in love with their facial scrub. The Simple scrub was okay, it had an overwhelming plastic smell to it which is the main reason why I wasn't amaze by this product. I did really like the Micheal Todd Jojoba (I think it is called) facial scrub though. But I found another one that I liked better! And the winner is...(drum rolls) Lush Ocean Salt!

 

I've been using this product for a couple of weeks now and like I said earlier, I am in love with it. It doesn't dry out your skin since there is avocado and coconut oils in it, which have moisturizing properties.

UPDATE: I need your help!

heyy girls!

Today is Thursday and I don't have school until Monday which is great because I have more time to write. I just wanted to do a quick post on what I have been doing those past weeks that leaded to the lack of post on my blog. First, I want to sincerely apologize for the missing articles and the lack of effort from me. I don't even know what happened... I guess I just forgot that I had to post an article or I just didn't have any ideas on what I should write about.

So please! Leave me a comment telling me what you want me to write about. It can be a makeup collection, a fall makeup look, Lush products review or anything beauty or fashion related.

I also have some questions for you...

What are your recommendations for a foundation that has a dewy finish, has medium to full coverage, has neutral shades for fair skin and isn't drying on the skin or leaves you look like you have a mask on your face. ;)

Also, I wanted to know which high end palette you would like to win for my 1 year blog anniversary giveaway(Naked, Naked 2, Too faced Naked Eyes, etc).

You can also talk to me through Twitter if you want to ;) @MissBeauty4all or you can follow me on Instagram: @missbeauty4all

I hope you're having a nice day,

♥ Ipsy Bag: September 2013 ♥

heyy girs,

I'm here today with another Ipsy bag post! If you don't know what Ipsy is, it is basically a monthly subscription service where you pay 10$ a month and you get 5-6 deluxe size beauty samples. So far, I've really been liking it and I highly recommend you to check it out if you're interested (here). Lets see what I got in this month Ipsy bag!...

 

The first thing that I got is this sample from Michelle Phan's new cosmetics line. It is called EM and I'm very excited to try those eyeshadows out and the blush too ;)

 



Next, I got this Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter. It is suppose to be a brow bone highlighter I guess but sincerely I don't really think it is that brightening. This is why I use it on my water line to make me look more awake.

I also got this Starlook eyeliner in ObsidianI have to say that I don't really like it. The color seems to be black and it doesn't come off very black on my hand. It also doesn't go on smoothly. I was very disappointed with that product...

To obtain that color I went over and over with the eyeliner.

Next, I got the It's So Big! mascara from Elizabeth Mott. I like it. I think it is a good mascara, it is very black and I LOVE the brush. I'm not sure if I would repurchased it though because I haven't worn it enough to really have an opinion.

In my Ipsy bag, I also received this Cailyn tinted lip balm in Big Apple. First, I HATE the color. Don't get me wrong, I love me some red lipsticks but this is the ugliest red I've ever seen. Seriously!?! I don't really know how to describe it...it just looks cheap on the lips (??). AND it is SO much drying on the lips and it is suppose to be a LIP BALM. I love the applicator though...and the pigmentation of the product but that's it ;)

The last thing that I got is this NYX eyeshadow in 108 Golden Puppy. I really don't like the color. I like the texture and the pigmentation though... I just wish that I've gotten another color than this yellow one.

🍁 Fall 2013 Fashion Trends 🍁

heyy girls,

as you know Fall is coming very soon and I wanted to share with you some of the fashion trends that I'm excited to wear or that I just think are wearable and cute ;)

Army trend

This trend has been going on for a while now and I think it is there to stay. I love this trend because it is a little bit more daring than what I usually like to wear.

Tall Boots (Riding Boots) trend

 

I'm going to be honest with you, I haven't own a pair of tall boots in a while. I just always thought that they didn't look good on me and that they took to much effort to put on and take off for school. But recently, I've been obsessed with this kind of look. I think it is the perfect fall accessory. This means that I NEED to go out and buy a pair...#happygirl

Knit Beanie trend

This fall, knit beanie will most likely be huge. I don't remember if it was the case last year but I know that a lot of people already wear them but I'm excited to try this trend since I've never bought a beanie before. Again, I didn't thought that I could pull it off but this year I want to experiment with my look :)
