September is almost at its end, and you know what that means – it’s time for us to share our monthly favorites! While I have one newer product that made it on my list this month (*not-so-subtly flips my hair so you catch a whiff of Ouai x Byredo’s warm, sandalwood-scented leave-in conditioner*), September mostly had me rediscovering old favorites in my collection. These are my tried and trues!
The Beauty Insider Community wants to know: what beauty products have you been loving this month? All makeup, skincare, hair care, fragrance, and wellness recommendations are more than welcome. Here are my September favorites:

The Ouai with sandalwood, @GeorginaBT - that sounds autumn-cozy🍂
Finally getting a reprieve from the heat of this summer (anyone else???) and have settled in with these BIC-inspired loves this month🧡
I have used this palette almost every single day this month, and love how it has given my daily neutral eye a little interest. Thank you to my trustworthy BIC’ers for this month’s loves. Happy fall!!! 🥰
I absolutely love that palette @eshoe, it is my favorite from ND❤️
@faeriegirl I had no idea you had this one! I love how everything is labeled. Everything blend I have tried so far has made me happy. Might be my favorite brand for shadows🥰
@eshoe I’m happy to hear you have had a little break from the heat! How did I not know about this eyeshadow palette??? It’s beautiful. The most perfect colour story!!!
This palette really serves neutral skin tones well, @ather - and it seems like it would be an obvious match for those cooler-toned as well!💙💙💙
@eshoe, love, love, looooove the Natasha Denona Glam Palette - she's a beauty! 😍 Happy to hear you picked it up and that you're enjoying it! We're twinsies with the NARS eyeshadow primer!
It was a phenomenal recommendation, @itsfi . Finally making grays work! I was torn between this and the Natasha Denona Retro Eyeshadow Palette, and couldn’t be happier. Not ruling out Retro yet, though😉
Yay for Nars, that one is an auto-renew for sure!
@eshoe You have a lot of good loves. I've yet to try the NARS, ND or ColorWow.
If I had to pick one, @greeneyedgirl107, I would say the NARS Pro-Prime™ Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base is a must.
@eshoe Now I'm really thinking I need that NARS Pro-Prime™ Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base . I applied a full face of makeup today for the the first time in a loooong time as I had to get my license renewed/a real ID at the DMV. I used my Too Faced Shadow Insurance Eyeshadow Primer and I think it came off as too tacky, as I've had it a while. I couldn't get my crease shadow to blend as well as I'd like.
I had another makeup misstep with my foundation. I rarely wear it, so I've had a CC cream from Stila for-ev-er. It seems way oilier than I remembered, and looked like it was separating when I squeezed it out of the tube. I usually get a dry finish after applying my Laura Mercier powder, but that didn't happen this time. I'm not looking forward to trying to pick out a new foundation.
As for my pic - I was disappointed. I had fabulous luck the last two items with my license. But this one was taken very close-up and I have a weird look on my face b/c I wasn't expecting the flash. The makeup didn't come up well on the pic, either. Oh well - I think I was very spoiled from the past.
Are photos HD now @greeneyedgirl107? No thank you😂
I think I may have tried that in my early Sephora Days (the primer). I am so sorry about the foundation and I know the feeling…you want to make it work and go with it. Instead, it just goes from mess to messier. I am so curious what your skincare routine is like. I have a hunch it is impacting your makeup application🤔
@eshoe Good question about skincare affecting makeup application. I've only run into the issues I described this week, and my skincare hasn't changed that much but I'm curious about any insight you might have.
Before applying the full face of makeup, I washed my face with FAB Pure Skin Face Cleanser. Then, I used a YTTP facial mist and Paula's Choice BHA 9 on my T-zone. I usually only apply moisturizer on the areas I need in the morning which is eyes and around my mouth. But since I knew I'd be using a foundation, I applied CeraVe PM all over. I might have been a little heavy-handed with it, but not too much. I waited several minutes for it to dry, then started with the Stila CC cream application, shadow primer and powder.
Thanks for taking an interest! 🙂
Hmmm @greeneyedgirl107 I wonder, could a change in humidity be having any impact, by chance. When all other things are constant, makes me think external factors are at play. I am just guessing, or more like taking a stab at possible culprits😂
@eshoe It's been on my Loves List for a while. I might just have to finally pick it up.
Yes, that LM fig cream smells so good, @eshoe!
I’ve been using it sparingly, @quspork, until now. Happy to share this 🧡 with you!
@eshoe @Yes! Seriously loving this cooler fall weather !
From too hot to below normal, @Kim888 - what an unusual year it’s been!
The Natasha Denona palette has been on my wishlist for so long and I think your top three swatches may have finally convinced me to take the plunge!
@StyleLynn it was in my Wish List for quite awhile. I didn’t get it at first because I didn’t think I needed it. Turns out, these grays are just what was needed for a change of pace! Sales upcoming, may as well wait and save a little extra 👍🏼☺️
@eshoe I love a cool-toned palette. Those shades are so pretty!
