October Beauty Favs

October was an exciting beauty month with the release of holiday sets, discovering new products, and revisiting some oldies but goodies. My list of favourites this month is long but full of amazing products which I strongly believe are worth the hype and try.

1. Tarte Maracuja C-brighter Eye Treatment: Incorporated with c-brighter technology this cream helps refresh, renew, and recharge tired eyes at the same time hydrates, firms, and brightens. It is lightweight and has a smooth texture making it the perfect consistency for an eye cream. 2. Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer in Medium/Deep: First of all this bronzer smells A-MA-ZING, that's right, think of opening a container of hot chocolate powder, so yummy! Besides the scent this bronzer is extremely pigmented and provides a beautiful natural tan colour. Perfect for contouring or as an everyday bronzing tool. 3. Buxom Full Bodied Lipstick in Swinger: The definition of a full coverage, hydrating lipstick and not to mention it is long wearing. The colour though is what drew me in, it is the perfect pink/purple berry colour with just the right balance of gloss and matte. 4. Smashbox Photo Finish Pore Minimizing Foundation Primer: Every girl with visible pores needs to try this primer. The second the product is rubbed in your face you can see your pores disappearing. Also, once applied it leaves such a smooth surface to build on, keeps shine and oily areas to a minimal, and keep your foundation from sliding around. 5. Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Oil Free Foundation in #110 Creamy Natural: By far one of my favourite liquid foundations I have ever used and to find it at the drug store for under $10… BONUS! This foundation is lightweight, provides medium coverage, is extremely blendable and buildable, keeps oils out, and leaves my face feeling makeup free. 6. Z Palette: After finally finding Z Palettes in Canada (Thank You FTB Beauty) I needed to follow in every beauty addicts footsteps. This palette is amazing, perfect for travel, is compact, and easy to create. De-potting eyeshadows couldn't have been easier and honestly frees up so much space… to buy more makeup of course. 7. Clarisonic Mia: I'm sure by now all you beauty gurus have heard and used one of the many different Clarisonic devises. For some reason this month my skin was extremely temperamental and my Clarisonic truly made it better. The vibrating brush was able to gently dig into my pores removing stubborn dirt and clear up blemishes. 8. Too Faced Shadow Insurance: This anti-crease eye shadow primer is lightweight and allows cream and power shadows to stay put throughout the day with any type of skin, whether oily or not. It also helps create an intensity that would require numerous layers of shadow, with only one application. 9. Beauty Blender: My new favourite tool to apply both the Smashbox Primer and the Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation. I have never had a more evenly or flawlessly applied liquid foundation in my life. Beauty Blender it took WAY too many years to meet but I'm never letting you go. 10. Diorshow Maximizer: This plumping serum honestly make your lashes go from drab to fab. I have used this in the past and loved it but thought I could go without it… man I was wrong. If you want every girl to think you are wearing false lashes you NEED this product. 11. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara: Another holy grail product and for a mascara whore like me that is a major statement. This mascara has everything, it is lengthening, volumizing, separating, and creates a dramatic bold lash. Secret - in combination with the Diorshow Maximizer OMG, can I say match made in heaven! 12. Laura Mercier Caviar Stick Eye Colour in Coco, Moonlight, Rosegold, and Amethyst: For the girl who loves cream shadows you need to try these. Because they are in pencil form they are extremely easy to apply and easy to blend together with the help of a crease brush. I use them in combination with the Too Faced Shadow Insurance to ensure no creasing happens throughout the day. 13. Briogeo Don't Despair, Repair!: The deep conditioning mask helps with dry, damaged, breaking hair caused by colouring, heat treatment, or climate changes. This mask left my hair feeling so refreshed and smooth, it was honestly like no other mask I have ever used.

October IPSY Bag

October's Ispy Bag was titled Beauty Candy, which featured beauty treats from 4 of Ipsy's Top Stylists. (@DesiMakeup @Chrisspy @LustreLux @Christen Dominique) I really enjoyed this bag and, since I'm super late on this post, got to try ALL of them and more than once! Check out my mini reviews below and let me know if you want me to post a more detailed review by leaving your comments below. Now, lets get to it!

1) Ecru New York Acacia Protein BB Cream (Beauty Balm for Hair): This cream is the perfect styling lotion, whether for curls or a straight blow out. It is extremely lightweight, conditioning, and moisturising but at the same time creates body and shine. 2) Starlooks Lip Gloss in Guilty Pleasure: This pigmented lip gloss has the thickness of a lipstick and the gloss of a lip gloss, equalling the perfect lip product. The colour is the perfect pinky mauve shade, not overly sticky, smells A-MA-ZING, and long wearing. Girls, put away the lip stick/gloss duo and get yourself some of these glosses! 3) Skyn Iceland Glacial Cleansing Cloths: I have received these before in the past and didn't really love them. So when I received them again this month I was a little bummed but was willing to give them another shot. With that being said I still couldn't get into them. Don't get me wrong they do what they are suppose to and remove your makeup, however I found them extremely harsh leaving my skin feeling raw and burning. Maybe they just aren't right for my skin type and will work better on yours, I don't know. 4) Rose Berry Hand Cream in Figs & Rouge: Can I get an amen! This has honestly been a purse fav throughout the month. This has an interesting consistency, which typically I do not enjoy but Rose Berry has truly changed that. It is extremely lightweight with almost a watery consistency instead of a creamy one, however, when it is rubbed in it turns into a similar consistency of a makeup primer and leaves the skin feeling silky smooth. I honestly cannot get enough of this cream! 5) NYC Big Curl Mascara: Both myself and Ipsy are no stranger to this mascara. Opening an Ipsy bag and receiving the same product again can be annoying but not when it is this mascara! For a high-end mascara snob like myself, this drugstore one is really good. It holds a curl, creates volume, doesn't clump, and has an opaque formula.
