Yet another month has passed and that means another monthly favorites post, and to be honest, I love reading them. I always want to know what great products are out there and many bloggers know what's trendy and what's not (not saying I'm not trendy, peeps). So, I thought I would gather a couple products that I have been grabbing over the past month and share them with you guys cuzz that's what I do.
I have recently been loving the glowy, face look. I know, I know, it's really hot and humid out so "glow is a no" but, honestly it hasn't made me look any more or less "dewy". The Soap & Glory Glow All Out Luminizing Face Powder doesn't make me look sweaty or shiny persay; it adds a very KimK glow that I have grown to like on my face. 
To get me going and on the brow-game bandwagon, I have been obsessively raving over the Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow and I can't say that I have used anything better to fill in my brows (only because this is my first for brow pomades). I have been using it practically every day! 
A new favorite that I have discovered is this Orgins Modern Friction cream-thing...so far I have noticed that my redness has gone away and my dry skin has been taken away while it has also minimized my pores. I haven't been using this cream for a very long time so, i might have to check back in later with a day and night skincare post later on this month. I do like what it's doing to my skin, though. 
On the topic of skincare, I have been loving the Travel Size Cetaphil Cleasner to use on trips. Especially because I own the full size of this cleanser and keep refilling the mini to take with me when I go away. It has made my skin so oil-free and is great at removing pesky eye makeup that never comes off. 
My skin has been extremely dry due to an acne cream I am using and I have been trying to exfoliate a bit every now and then so, the St. Ives Apricot Scrub has really helped. It smells very fresh, too.

Moving onto fragrance, my obsession over the Sugar Crush vanilla-lime scent from Soap & Glory has been quite the addiction. I have the lotion, shower gel, and now this Sugar Crush Spray that I can't stop using! It's a great summery scent. 
The Wet n Wild One Step Gel Polish is a newer discovery and I can't go back to any of my other nail polishes at all! Nothing else I have tried compares to how long lasting and opaque this whole range is. I want to do a full post on these because I keep buying more and they're so great! There's no lamp needed and they take little to a couple minutes to dry. 
Mascara has been a product that I have always gone back and repurchased over and over. This Soap & Glory Thick and Fast mascara will be one of those that I will continue to buy. I constantly go through mascara and I love how voluminous this mascara makes my lashes. 

From my Fresh Skincare Post that I wrote a week ago, I have really enjoyed the Fresh Rose Face Mask. It leaves my skin so smooth and oil-free. I love how it smells and I think I'll have to buy more products from Fresh soon. Skincare is an iffy thing for me because I have very sensitive and acne prone skin-this didn't break me out at all.
Last but, never least, the Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Matte Lips have been a popular makeup product in my collection lately. I linked my blog post I did on them recently so you all can see some swatches and read more about them and Soap & Glory! They're matte and moisturizing at the same time. 
If you enjoyed my favorites for this past month, please leave comments below if you've tried out any of them! I'd love to hear your thoughts. Are there any other products you guys have been obsessed with this summer?

Xoxo, Nat

  2. I love the St. Ives Apricot scrub and you cannot beat the price! I also use it as a body scrub because it's so affordable and such a great exfoliant. I've heard so many good things about Origins products, I just need to take the plunge and try some out. Great favorites! XO -Kim

    1. I never thought to use it on my body, too! This was my first ever Origins product and I really liked it. The products can be pricey but, for skincare, I think it's worth the splurge. Thank you so much XX
