November Favorites & Empties

Hello and Welcome to my monthly favorites and empties for November! I dug out a few old favorites this month and use up or said goodbye to a few newer favorites as they were empty.  On my face this month I've been cleaning with the Origins checks & balances, then applying Origins Vitazing all over, & finishing with my Bare Minerals original foundation in medium beige.  The blush I used throughout the month has been Nars Sin and I've been applying it to my cheeks using the Real Techniques stippling brush.  For my eyes I used the Coastal Scents medium shadow brush to apply both the Naked and Naked 2 palettes so that I could hold off my eagerness for Naked 3 (which will be here any day, look out for swatches and pictures).  My hair products included 3 products; Paul Mitchell skinny serum, Aussie 3 minute miracle, & the Macadamia healing oil treatment. What were your stand out favorites this month?

Favorites this month:
1 Origins Vitazing
2 Bare Minerals Original Foundation
3 Nars Sin Blush
4 Real Techniques Stippling Brush 
5 & 6 Urban Decay Naked & Naked 2 Palettes
7 Paul Mitchell Skinny Serum
8 Coastal Scents Medium Shadow Brush


Empties this month
Aussie 3 minute miracle (a repurchase over and over, favorite conditioner)
Macadamia Healing Oil Treatment (will repurchase, loved my hair after using this)

Thanks for checking out my faves!

Ipsy Bag October 2013 "The Art of Beauty"

Hi friends!

Here is my Ipsy bag this month, not much to say about it as 3 of the items are what I'd consider: "beauty staples", things you need in your day-to-day makeup routine.  The SH blowdry gel, CS medium shadow brush, & LF cleanser wipes are all things that are needed in most ladies every day so it's nice to try different brands out.  I was hoping to get the lotion in my bag since we just switched to Fall and I have the most dry skin on the planet but I can just as easily pick some up on my next Target run! Pics of my bag below, enjoy!

My bag this month:
Zoya Nail Polish "Neve" (swatches here)
Bella Terra Mineral Cosmetics Mineral Shimmers "Emotion"
Sexy Hair Blowdry Gel
Coastal Scents Medium Shadow Brush
La Fresh Eco Beauty Oil-Free Face Cleanser Wipes

Sign up for Ipsy here, it's only $10 a month & I've always had the best experience with them and their products.

I am happy to be seeing more of Zoya in the bags but since I already have this shade in my collection I'll be giving this to a friend or family.  I'm most excited about the CS Medium shadow brush because you can never have enough shadow brushes. What were you most excited to try in your Ipsy bag this month?
