Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

GeorginaBT_0-1663949728859.jpeg

 

End of September already, BIC! 🤯🍂 Beauty-wise, this has been a month of hydration for me, and that is definitely reflected in my monthly faves. To be honest, a few of the products I’m shouting out here have actually been at the top of my list for the past couple of months, but they’ve become so integrated into my regular routine that I almost forgot about them (considering the number of times I wash my hands throughout the day, is it safe to say that the Ouai soap is my most-used beauty product?). Hydration heavy-hitters aside, I wish I could transmit scent through the BIC and out from your screen for you to catch a whiff of the floral magic that is my new go-to Nest perfume… 😌

 

Here’s a list of the products I kept coming back to this month:

@Sunnysmom  I like the mascara for my more light makeup days!! It gives lots of length!! 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Thanks @ather , that’s great to know. 😊

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@Sunnysmom  I also agree I think we have very similar tastes! And we totally could share!! I remember stealing my moms makeup when I was younger!! 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Ha that’s amazing @ather ! My mom’s was so minimal at the time as was mine. Boy how times change tho it takes a lot to look natural anymore! 🤣

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@Sunnysmom  My mom owned 2 franchise stores of Merle Norman. Not sure if it’s a Canadian makeup store so I grew up around makeup! My mom use to take 2 hours to put her makeup on and I remember she took me to the mall her store was in for a haircut and she had no makeup on no one recognized her. My mom barely wears makeup now. She now owns a chocolate company she created! 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Wow, how awesome that your mom owned a couple Merle Norman franchises @ather. I bet that you learned a lot from her about skincare and makeup.

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@Loretta55  I definitely did. But now that I’m into it she’s not. But it’s ok I’m into chocolate too. My mom always had me using skincare since pre teens. I was super lucky she also was into it. 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

You’re kidding me @ather ! That is so wonderful. What a hard working mom too. I do know MN! I used to love a few of their lippies and glosses when younger ! (What a shocker I know .🙃) There used to be a shop nearby but not sure if it still is. Makeup to chocolate?! Yes please, perfect transition! Hugs to you both, miss mine! 🥰 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@ather I keep going back and forth on picking up the Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm Set; I definitely don't NEED it but it seems like everyone loves those!

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

I just picked this up @CookieGirl1! I wanted a backup of Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm for Hydration & Shine Vanilla and getting to try Summer Fridays Lip Butter Balm for Hydration & Shine Brown Sugar was an added bonus. 😊 I've been leaving the little ones in purses/at my office desk. 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@GeorginaBT they all SOUND so good!

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@CookieGirl1  I really love it!!! I find the brand works really good on my skin!

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

I was fooling around with a few products and I found my new HG. Due to over tweezing my eyebrows I am left with my gaps. I have tried numerous products but everything looked fake and overdone to me. I have been using Grande Cosmetics GrandeBROW Brow Enhancing Serum 4 Month Supply which has truly helped with regrowth. I was fooling around with PATRICK TA Major Brow Shaping Wax (tinted version) and GXVE BY GWEN STEFANI Hella On Point Clean Ultra-Fine Brow Pencil (I received shade 5 as part of a gratis package) and I was wowed by the results. Today only there is a sale on brow products so I ordered another PT Brow Shaping Wax and GXVE in shade 4 because I have shade 4 in the other brow pencil and it is a perfect match. On days that I am in a hurry I will just use the brow wax but adding the pencil really brings it to the next level.

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@Loretta55 Oooh I've been curious about the Patrick Ta brow wax! I don't know if my brows are thick enough to give me the bushy laminated brow look that I've been loving on others lately, but maybe the key is to fake it with a fine-tip pencil like that GXVE one. Ideas, ideas... 🧡👀

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Adding the GXVE BY GWEN STEFANI Hella On Point Clean Ultra-Fine Brow Pencil really takes my eyebrows to the next level @GeorginaBT. It is worth trying.

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

That’s great to know about the Grande brow stuff @Loretta55.  Mine could sure use it! I took em for granted when younger! 😩

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Nobody would believe that I actually had a unibrow once @Sunnysmom . They were thick and unruly.

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

That’s awesome @Loretta55 !! 😂 I wish! 

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

@Loretta55  Great favs!

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

Thank you very much @ather.

Re: Monthly Favorites: September 2022 Edition!

This month held a rare surprise for me- I found two dry shampoos that I love!

Rossano Ferretti Parma Dry Shampoo Cream 1.7 oz/ 50 mL   and Saints and Sinners Superfresh Dry Shampoo.

 

The RF Vivace Shampoo Cream is a very thin gel.  I had never used a formula like this before, but it worked well, no whitish cast, and had the added benefit of soothing my always inflamed scalp.  The scent is a little bit strongly floral out of the bottle, but it does dissipate enough for me to use it.

 

Saints and Sinners dry shampoo is the typical spray formula.  It leaves no cast, and alleviated my very greasy roots without drying them.  It added a little bit of volume, but I wouldn't depend upon it for that. The scent reminds me of Living Proof's dry shampoo but maybe with a little bit of musk and powder added.

 

Josie Maran Whipped Argan Oil Face Butter Unscentedmatched with Josie Maran Argan Smooth Skin Resurfacing Serum 0.85 oz/ 25 mL  works very, very well to smooth my skin overnight.  No irritation either, but I always use these together (and sometimes add the Josie Maran 100 percent Pure Argan Oil also.  I am a die-hard Biossance fan, but these are an effective duo to mix things up.

 

tarte tartelette™ tubing mascara Black- Wow!  I hope some of you decided to try this when it was 50% off this month on Sephora and Ulta.  It adds a lot of length, and works well on top of other brands and formulas.  I particularly liked using it on top of Surratt's mascara. 

 

Dior Diorshow Waterproof Mascara- Excellent, of course- it's Dior.  It removes easily also.

 

Shiseido MicroLiner Ink Eyeliner04 Navy.  Inky, inky dark blue.  Glides on, won't smudge.  I really like these liners.  They are also thin, which means I can easily tightline if I care to.

 

MAC Love Me Liquid Lipcolour in Bated Breath- I think this is a great early fall shade.  I need to find a matching lip liner though.
