August 2012 Favorites

Here is a list of the things that I've been loving in the month of August and why I love them!


 
 
MAC Cut a Caper Lipstick ($14.50 now $15)
This lipstick came out with the Heavenly Creature collection, however it was a repromote. I've been loving this shade! When I first received it in the mail, I wasn't sure if I would like it since it looked ORANGE in the tube. I'm glad I kept this since I've been wearing it almost every day. Since it's a lustre, this is a nice everyday color for any occasion.


MAC Studio Sculpt SPF 15 Foundation ($30)
This is the first 'liquid' foundation that I've ever liked. I've used liquid many years ago, however it never truely looked good or stayed all day. I switched to mineral foundation for a few years and was 90% happy with the look and staying power. This foundation is more of a gel like consistency compared to other liquid foundations. I find that this stays all day if I set it with my MAC blot powder. I haven't tried it without the blot powder though since I tried applying it with a brush rather than my hands. This did not stay very long on my face when I applied it with my hands.


MAC 130 Short Duo Fibre Brush ($42)
I bought this brush after trying and failing to apply my new foundation with my hands. I was planning to get either the 109 or 188, however the MUA recommended this one if I want full coverage (which I do). So far this brush sheds very minimally.


Wet n Wild Color Icon Trio in Walking on Eggshells ($2.99)
I bought this eyeshadow trio at CVS a few months back, used it once or twice, and then forgot about it. I rediscovered it this month and I have been using it almost everyday. It's a nice look for back to school in my opinion since it's very neutral and natural looking.


Harry Potter
I've decided that while I'm on my summer break from school, I would rewatch all of the Harry Potter movies. Some of them I've seen more than once and some of them I haven't seen since they came out in movie theaters.


Taylor Swift's 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together'
I absolutely love Taylor Swift and any song she writes. I've become obsessed with her new song after hearing a lip dub version on YouTube from NikkiPhillippi.



What have you been loving this month?
XOXO
