October Favorites

Favorites post's are always a challenge for me. Unless I am buying new stuff I struggle to find new favorites ( and I try not to buy a ton of new stuff a lot). I think if I shop my stash more in the future this might help but currently I am trying to use up some of the same things. I have a mix for October of skinare, nailcare, makeup, and of course a Bath & Body Works products.

October Favorites


Loreal Colorriche Caresse Stick in 174 Rose Taffeta-I really enjoy this a lot. It's just as pigmented as the Revlon lip butters but don't feel as heavy on the lips. The color is beautiful dusty rose color and I like it because it doesn't really have any brown undertones. Just a very pretty lipstick. It moisturizes my lips nicely as well. I think I will pick up more of these.

Fresh Seaberry Moisturizing Face Oil-This is something that I picked up recently at Sephora. I like to switch to oils in the winter. Normally I just use it at night but this is light enough that I can use morning and night. I really like this minus the smell and do think that this helps add moisture back to my skin. To all of you afraid of oil I am telling you not to be. You would be surprised what this can do for your skin.

Zoya 3-in-1 formula Remove +-This is always a favorite of mine but I wanted to highlight it this month. I change my polish about twice a week and this nail polish remover is amazing. I only need one cotton pad to take off all of my nail polish. I also love that this doesnt dry out my nails. Highly recommend this!

Mac Lipstick in Syrup- I picked this up recently after hearing so many people talk about loving it for Fall. If you like really pigmented lipsticks then this is not for you. This is a very natural lipstick that just adds a nice warm pink/plum color to your lips. It's a lustre so its shiny and a bit more sheer. It's similar to the Loreal one.

Bioderma Crealine H20- I cannot tell you how happy I am to have this in my hands. My friend recently went to Paris and I am forever grateful to her for picking this up for me while she was there. This stuff is amazing. It takes of face makeup and eye makeup like a dream. I am still deciding how this compares to my other cleansing waters but so far this stuff is amazing. I just wish it was easier to pick up. All I know of is Ebay or Amazon in the US.

Bath & Body Works Pumpkin Caramel Latte Candle- I can't do a favorites without a Bath & Body Works product. I am a total sweets junkie and this candle just hits the spot. It's more caramel with a hint of pumpkin. It's a really strong candle so if you don't like that then skip this one. I love it though. So festive for October and Fall.

Maybelline Color Sensational High Shine Gloss in Raspberry Reflections- I love this lipgloss so much. I plan to pick up another one soon. Read my review of it here. 

Essie Bahama Mama Nail Polish- Last but not least is the cult favorite Bahama Mama. Just about every guru or blogger has talked about this at some point or another. I haven't heard of a person that doesn't love this color. If you pick up anything from this post, get this! It's a great color. Here is my NOTD post on this color. 

So those are my October favorites. I apologize for not posting makeup reviews as much lately. Unfortunately we have been hit by Hurricane Sandy and the past week its rained everyday, plus with it getting darker earlier it's making it harder for me to get pictures. If anyone has any tips on how to get pictures in a dark apartment let me know. I promise to do my best and keep you all up to date with all of the beauty goodies out there. I hope all of my readers are safe from the Hurricane!

  3. I love that candle. I have the smaller single one and the scent is pretty strong. Makes me crave for spiced cakes or pumpkin lattes from starbucks.
