October Favourites 2013!!!

Hey everyone!!!

I'm a little late this month, but I'm back with my October favourites!!!

I'm really excited to be sharing these products with you guys!

So let's just jump right into it because I can't wait!

So here's an overview of everything. :3 I think two might have been featured in a previous post, but that's fine.

So this really doesn't have any order, at all!

But this has definitely been my favourite cover up for the month. I've already ordered another one since I'm starting to run out.

But I already did a full review on it here if you want to read that.

But I really like this because it covers up everything and is just super fantastic basically. It makes me a little pale, but I like being pale so that's fine.

Next up we have my favourite eyeliner! It was actually a tie between this and another, but I used this one more, especially towards the end of the month.

I got this in my Ipsy bag a while back, and actually really enjoy the brand in general!

I just did a review on this last week, but it's the ELF Smudge Brush. I've really been loving this to put a little bit of eyeshadow on my lower lash line for a pop of colour.

This is my favourite eyeshadow, and I don't know why I've never mentioned it before! I've been using it since the summer, but just lately started becoming even more obsessed with it.

And it's the Revlon Vital Radiance Mousse Eyeshadow! :3 I actually don't know the colour of it because it was on the packaging and I threw it out months ago.

But it's just a mousse eyeshadow and looks really natural for when I want something light and effortless. And it doesn't crease on me a ton either, which I like!

Next up we have this ELF Blush and Bronzer Duo compact thingy majiggy.

The colour name, again, isn't on the back, but that's fine.

I bought it from my work for $3 and at first, I really hated it. But then I used it recently and the blush was just really pretty and not too dark.

And the bronzer part is also really nice! It's the only bronzer I've used that actually blends with my skin nicely!

This! Oh my gosh, I had been searching for this for months! But I finally got it at the beginning of the month, and it's a love hate relationship with this.

I love this because it's been helping with my acne scars, but it's really flakey and annoying to use with a lot of my foundations.

But I plan on reviewing this soon so watch out for that. :3

This is actually my only non makeup product haha!

But it's the Garnier Fructis Instant Repair Mask. :3 I bought this from my work at the beginning of the month, and after one use, I was hooked. I've actually been using this as my conditioner the past two weeks too.

It just makes me hair really soft and feels amazing!!!

My second last product is my Skin79 Highlighter! I don't know the exact name for it, but I looked at a bunch of korean makeup on eBay and this came up. The pretty colours attracted me!

I'm really iffy with highlighters because my skin is really oily and I don't want to overdo it, but I use this with my bronzer and blush duo, and it's just really pretty.

And pastel!!

Last, but definitely not least, is my ELF Little Black Beauty Book: Night Edition!

I saw this at my work for $5, and knew I had to get it.

I have the huge 100 colour eyeshadow palette from ELF, but it's hard to travel with because it doesn't fit in my makeup case, and I don't wanna crack the colours. But this works perfect!

And it has some really nice colours in there.

I've been using this with the smudge brush I mentioned, and been putting the glittery purple and blue colours on my lash line a lot, then using the matte black colour over my eyeliner so it doesn't smudge.

Overall, it's a great find and I love it so much!

These are all the things I've been loving lately, and if you guys have a monthly favourites post or video, definitely send me a link! :3

Holika Holika Petit BB Cream: Clearing Review!!!

Hey everyone!!!

Today I'm going to be reviewing the Holika Holika Petit BB Cream in Clearing. :3 

There are four other kinds of bb cream in this line, which include Essential, Moisture, Watery, and Shimmering. I chose the Clearing one though because if you know me, I have very acne prone skin.

So let's get straight into the review!

Here we have the Holika Holika Petit BB Cream: Clearing edition. :3

I have to admit, one of the things that drew me to this was the colour of the packaging. I'm a sucker for anything in this colour range. And since summers coming up, I wanted to go for something that's lighter than my foundations, not that any are too heavy.

I love that this has SPF 30 in it. It's been getting a lot hotter here, which I didn't think was possible! I didn't really have anything with SPF in it before, or at least nothing that was in the double digits. My moisturizer is only an 8, I believe.

AND GURL, AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR THAT!

When I first put a little onto my hand, I was really worried it would be too dark or not match my skin. Even though I don't actually look it, I'm extremely pale. I always go for the lightest foundation/powder/concealer in any brand, and sometimes they're still too dark.

But I do have to comment on the scent; it smells really good. Like summer. Not like a floral summer, but just a nice pleasant summer. :3

First of all, can we just comment on how weird and manly my hand looks in these pictures? ; - ;

Moving on!

After I blended it in (I just used my hand) it actually matched my skin really well, and got rid of any redness I have. It felt really nice on my skin too, like I wasn't wearing anything.

I've tried other BB creams, and they almost always feel cakey on my skin, but this felt so light!

It also fits my skin perfectly, which is amazing. I'm always a little nervous when buying foundations or anything in that general area online, because you can't really compare it with your skin tone.

When I apply this, I just put a little bit on the back of my hand, then apply it with a stippling brush. It goes on so nicely, and makes my skin look flawless, which is amazing, especially for a BB cream!

I have very problematic skin, with acne and acne scars showing up all over the place, and this covered all of them! I don't even need concealer when using this, which is a first.

Because it is a BB cream however, I do apply a matte powder over it just so it isn't sliding all over the place.

I have extremely oily skin, especially on my forehead, and this doesn't move at all. It stays put!

One of my favourite things about this BB cream is definitely the fact that it's waterproof!! And I mean it.

I went to my families farm today and went swimming. I thought for sure it was going to come off and expose all those pesky little scars and two lovely little bumps I have chilling on my forehead. But even after swimming for an hour and wiping my face like crazy (I had water in my eyes) this gem stayed put! 

It even outlasted my waterproof mascara and eyeliner.

YOU GO GLEN COCO.

But!

It did come off easily when I used a makeup removing wipe. Which I love!

I always have problems with removing my waterproof makeup at night, and I hate having to rub my skin so hard.

Without a second thought, this is definitely going to be my summer time coverup, especially on those really hot days.

I rate this beauty a 10/10!

It's extremely cheap, costing less than $6, with free shipping. It did take a month to get to me, but definitely worth the wait!

I ordered it a month before the hot weather even started. ;3

I hope this review helps anyone looking for a bb cream. :3
