ITEMS I PURCHASED FOR MYSELF
DRUNK ELEPHANT LALA RETRO WHIPPED MOISTURIZER WITH CERAMIDES - with the cold weather arriving, giving my skin extra moisture is key. This new and improved Lala Retro features 6 rare African oils and ceramides giving your intense moisture and barrier support. I love using this as part of my nighttime skincare routine, allowing my skin to soak up all the moisture while I sleep. It is not greasy or oily and has a soft whipped texture. It retails for $60 and is well worth the price!
DRUNK ELEPHANT PROTINI POLYPEPTIDE MOISTURIZER - Protini is my go-to moisturizer year round. It contains 9 signal peptides and pygmy waterlily to help improve your skin’s tone, texture and appearance. During the colder weather months, I like to use Protini as part of my morning skincare routine. It’s extremely light, not oily, and penetrates the skin quickly so there’s no waiting time for putting on makeup. It retails for $68 and again, is well worth the price!
TARTE SEA COLORSPLASH LIPSTICK [COLOR: SET SAIL] - I’ve been wanting to try Tarte’s lipstick for a while and the moment I put this on, I knew it was coming home with me! It is the most perfect dark nude for everyday where and will be perfect for fall and winter, too. The formula is extremely smooth and hydrating, not drying at all. It is a matte finish that is formulated not to bleed - a win-win! It is also formulated with antioxidant-rich marine plant extracts that help make your lips look fuller, firmer and smoother. It’s available in 24 shades and retails for $21.
BAREMINERALS GEN NUDE PATENT LIQUID LIPSTICK [COLOR: EVERYTHING] - I’ve been a BareMinerals girl since college and appreciate their clean formulas. Their Gen Nude collection has been all the rage and I decided to give it a try. This patent liquid lipstick is a beautiful muted mauve color with a high shine finish. I’m not typically a gloss type of girl but I can’t get enough of this stuff! It’s a perfect color for fall and the shine makes your lips pop in a classy way. It will be a perfect color for the holidays too! It’s available in 16 shades and retails for $19.
BITE BEAUTY: AMUSE BOUCHE LIPSTICK [COLOR: CHAI] and MATTE CREME LIP CRAYON [COLOR: GLACE] - I shared both of these Bite Beauty lip products before in my go-to products from Sephora. These were my go-to colors last fall and was definitely in need of a restock! I ended up having to order these because my store was out of them. They are on MAJOR sale so if you’ve been contemplating them, now is the time. The Amuse Bouche Lipstick is a beautiful mauve brown that is great for the fall, winter and everyday wear. It’s availabel in 32 colors and is 50% off making it just $13!! The Matte Creme Lip Crayon is a beautiful dusty mauve color. It’s available in 23 colors and is also 50% making it just $12!!
FRESH SUGAR LIP TREATMENT [COLOR: BLOOM] - I first got this during Sephora’s Summer Bonus Event and have loved it ever since! After wearing it nearly every single day this summer until now, mine was on empty and needed a restock. I love that it has SPF 15 in it for sun protection year round. It is extremely hydrating and smoothing, offering a very natural color to your lips. The consider the Bloom shade a “sensual shimmering pink” but I don’t notice any shimmer to it and find it super natural looking. This lip treatment is available in 15 shades and retails for $24.
