Good Morning All!

I hope you all had a great weekend! Since it is the last day of the month, I wanted to share with you guys my favorite beauty purchases I made during August. Some are new and life changing & others are oldies that I forgot I loved! Either way, I will be bringing them into September with me!!

It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In Product

This is one of the life changing, new products, that I have added into my hair routine.  I have never really had a hair routine before…..which includes never spraying a protector on my hair. Well, this all changed this past month. Idk what it was, but my hair had  lost off of its shine, and almost looked frazzled at one point. This It’s a 10 Miracle Leave In Product, was literally a miracle and changed all of that. It repairs dry damaged hair, adds shine, controls frizz (Houston humidity!), protects hair color, prevents split ends, stops hair breakage. Aka – it does everything. I wish I would have done a before & after picture of my hair to show you guys, because it really is amazing!

EOS Shaving Gel

If you aren’t using this shaving gel, then you are super missing out! This is an oldie that I stocked up on this month. I love it because after I wash it off, my legs are still sooo smooth. I don’t know how to really explain it, but trust me, its a game changer in shaving your legs.

Clarins Shaping Facial Lift Serum

Ya’ll. This stuff is everything. I mean EVERYTHING. When I wake up in the morning, my face always seems to be super swollen, especially after drinking. But this serum fixes everything. This serum literally contours your face, reduces swelling, as well as over all puffiness. It’s pricy, but I swear it’s worth it.  A little goes a long way. There is a special method to applying it, which you can find here on the Nordstrom’s website. I put it on right before I apply my moisturizer and primer when doing my make up, & its amazing the difference. It’s kind of the serum I have been searching for forever!

Burberry Body Perfume

This is a super oldie, that I love love love love. I ran out a few months ago, and was too lazy to go buy a new bottle. So I’ve been using other perfumes I have collected, but when I gave in, and bought this bottle again, I was kicking my self in the booty for not doing it sooner. It lasts, and smells sooo pretty. The day after I bought it, I received  3 compliments on it from strangers. Complete strangers! I think I have found my “own personal fragrance” and I don’t plan on changing it anytime soon.

Redken Blonde Idol ShampooRedken All Soft Conditioner 

I went ahead and put these products together, because well,  they kind of go hand in hand, duh.  Anyways, for the past few years, I have only used Moroccan Oil shampoo in conditioner, but recently, my hair just started looking blah. It’s like I couldn’t get my hair clean. Idk, it was gross. So, I started doing research and was referred by many to try Redken! It’s a super light weight shampoo & conditioner. I love that it’s sulfate free & it makes my highlights really stand out. Once again, another one I wish  I would have done a before and after picture of!

Chanel Mascara

So Idk about you guys, but I don’t normally spend a lot on mascara. I’m kind of more of a drug store mascara kind of girl. BUT I got this mascara as a sample a few weeks ago & immediately become obsessed. Like, I ran to Nordstrom’s to pick it up after my sample ran out. I already have pretty long lashes, but this mascara gives me that volume that I lack, without being even the least bit clumpy. It gives them curl, and that va va room look that I don’t naturally have.

Have a great rest  of your Monday!
