Friday Favorites!

Hello again beautifuls! I feel like it's been forever since my last post. I'm so sorry! This past week got crazy. Thankfully, I'm back on my blogging and filming game again!


Today I'm sharing my Friday favorites!

First and foremost, recently I've become more aware of what ingredients and chemicals are in the products I use on a daily basis; makeup, hair care, body care, skin care, oral care, etc. and it's pretty shocking where they come from, how they're made... and down right gross! I'm trying to get away from harsh chemicals in products, if I can!

Makeup:


NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil (Rust):
I love the Jumbo Eye Pencils from NYX! They are so creamy and easy to apply, blend, and work with. I'm grabbing for the "Rust" pencil to apply to my entire eyelid when I want a burgundy or wine colored eye for the day, especially since's Fall time! This color has really help intensify the burgundy colors I've been using!

Anastasia Beverly Hills Tamanna Palette:
I swear almost every other day this week, I've been grabbing for this palette and busting into "Sangria"! It's such a gorgeous wine color, I can't resist it.

Urban Decay Naked 2 Basics Platte:
I'll admit, I've been waking up pretty late almost everyday this week and on those days, I need to get out of the house faster and I need my hair and makeup done as fast as I can without anything special done to it. I've been grabbing this palette for a quick neutral eye!

KISS Lashes (Style #11):
I've been a huge fan of KISS lashes in their #01 style. Those lashes are huge, voluminous, and insane! But, these are kinda like demi wispies and a lot easier to apply then the #01 styles.

Lips:


Alaffia Fair Trade Lip Balm (Coconut Mint):
This stuff is amazing! I've been trying to find lip balms without "petrolatum" or "petroleum", because I have found out that ingredient alone chaps my lips and dries them out! This feels amazing on my lips, it's last for hours, and when it dries, my lips don't have an uncomfortable feeling to them

Acure Argan Oil Lip Balm (Dark Chocolate + Mint):
I have been loving the mint flavor and scent in this lip balm! It takes almost like your eating a mint chocolate candy. It's super moisturizing and last for hours. I've been using this as part of my bedtime routine!

Ology Lip Balm (Tangerine): 
I originally found this at Walgreens, tried it, and it ended up buried away in the lip drawer of my makeup storage. I recently found it while going through that drawer to pull out my fall and winter lip products and I'm loving the feel of this stuff!

Rimmel Color Rush Long Lasting Intense Colour Balm (Drive Me Nude, Make Me Blush, and Keep Mauving):
I have been obsessed with these balm stains all week long! They smell good, they're creamy, they give great color payoff, and they have been a great go-to fall lip product for this week as it's been a busy week!

Revlon Color Burst Balm Stain (Honey):
First off, the minty flavor and scent on these lip products are to die for if you are a mint fan! They are moisturizing, last for hours once they dry and leave their stain, and I've been wearing this with all my neutral eye looks for a pop of color for my lips!

Jordana Twist & Shine Moisturizing Balm Stain (Nude Chic): 
I feel as if this lip product was found during my fall and winter lip shade searching a few weeks ago! It's been a fun color! It's more of a darker shade of nude, so it has gone perfectly with my dark eye looks or even my neutral eye looks!

Skin: 


Acure Argan Stem Cell + Chlorella Growth Factor Brightening Facial Scrub:
This is such a great scrub! It smells so earthy! It's free of basically everything and organic! Most facial scrubs irritate my skin because of the fragrance alone, so this being fragrance free it awesome! It's an intense scrub so I've only used it once since using it, but so far I love how it makes my skin feel afterwards: SMOOTH!

Alba Botanica Very Emollient Cream Shave (Unscented):
The skin on my entire body is extremely sensitive, even on my care, with it being oily. I can barely use anything scented on my legs without them screaming at me, being red, itchy, dried out, and uncomfortable. No more of that! I found this awesome shaving cream and I'm sticking to this forever. No more Skintimate or Satin Care ... this stuff is magical! My skin is moisturized, not irritated or itchy, and I think it makes my skin smoother than other shaving creams I've used!

Hair:


Mineral Fusion Volumizing Shampoo & Conditioner:
 After recently getting my hair done, I went to Whole Foods recently in search of a new shampoo and conditioner and discovered the Mineral Fusion Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner. It's gluten free, paraben free, sulfate free, and pretty much organic! It smells great, lathers in my hair great, doesn't weigh my hair done and my hair feels wonderful! Salfates are really what weighs hair done, so having so salfate is great!

I hope you all enjoyed my little Friday favorites!

What are your Friday favorites?

    1. I've never chemically treated my hair in my entire life and probably never will knowing the damage it does to hair and your scalp and the chemicals involved! That shampoo smells so wonderful and definitely gives my hair a full look!
