Current Favorites #2

Hola, beauty lovers!! So, I'm coming to talk about my current favorite things. Like my April favorites (i know, it's been a long while), I adapted a different format, choosing to include different areas aside from beauty---like music, food, books, etc. I've got a LOT of favorites to get through , so sit back, relax and enjoy!!

BEAUTY
Milani lipsticks: they are AMAZE!! Easily one of the best drugstore lipstick brands on the market. They're very creamy, pigmented, and the smell of watermelon makes it even better!! Milani is a brand I feel should dominate more drugstores because the quality is superb!! My favorite colors currently are Teddy Bare (light brown nude), Rose Femme (medium brownish pink nude) and Sangria (deep Berry purple).







NYX High Voltage lipstick in Dahlia: this is the PERFECT vampy lip!! NYX hit the black purple color on the freaking head!!! The finish is matte, so I recommend you use an exfoliant and balm on your lips because it can settle into lip lines. I do wish that they sold them in other stores aside from Ulta, but you can also check out the NYX website!


Essie nail Polish in "Truth or Flare ": this is a perfect spring and summer color!! It's a light blue with gray undertones, very much like a light denim blue---hence the name . I fell in LOVE with this color!! Plus getting it for 90% off made it just a tad bit sweeter.

.
NYC Expert Last Nail Polish in Late Night Lilac: for some reason, I've been on the biggest purple kick lately, and this polish earned its rightful place in this favorites post!! It's a light shimmering purple and I received SO many compliments on it since wearing it ! don't you just love those underdog items that end up being total gems????


MUSIC
The 20/20 Experience by Justin Timberlake:  amazing album!! I'm in love with the medley of musical layers and influences, from sweet synthesizers to bellowing brass to turnt-up trumpets . Some complain of songs being too long and drawn out, but I actually live for that. Sometimes, you just need to vibe to the music for a while. Justin's seven year hiatus from music was definitely worth it!! I highly recommend this album!! Some of my favorites include Pusher Love Girl, Strawberry Bubblegum, Murder, Not a Bad Thing, Let the Groove Get In and Blue Ocean Floor.

FOOD
Hot Pockets: this has been a go to for me for any meal of the day!! They're cheap, available in so many stores, offer so many flavors and tasty!!


Well, that about wraps it up for my Current Favorites!! Thanks so much  for reading and like always, Stay Beautiful!!

Review: Nubian Heritage African Black Soap

Hello, all! Happy new year to everyone!! I came on to give my review on the second out of the three soaps I received from Nubian Heritage---the African Black Soap. Price: $4.99 on NH website and at the Vitamin Shoppe (5 oz size) Specs: This soap claims to be  acne-fighting,  detoxifying and healing.  Also, it was designed for people with   combination, oily, sensitive, and problem skin  , however it has been said that people with ALL skin types can use this as well :) but, back to the specs. Like I mentioned on my review on the Shea Butter soap , on the container is a brief history about how Nubian Heritage got its start and the ayurvedic properties about the key ingredients--which for this product line is shea butter, oats, aloe, palm ash, plaintain peel, tamarind extract and vitamin E. Palm Ash, Tamarind & Plantain Peel--soothing properties ; minimizes the appearance of superficial skin imperfections Oats--brightens and evens skin tone ...

November Favorites

Hello, my loves! Welcome back & if you're new here, welcome! I can't believe that I'm here with my November beauty favorites!! Like the year is legit almost  done. 31 days left before 2018 makes its grand entry. I do have quite a bit this month, so if you're interested in learning all about my  favorites for November,  then just keep reading! SKIN/BODYCARE Eco Tools Konjac Cleansing Sponge : so great for helping spread my cleanser more evenly on my face versus using my hands or a rag! I've also noticed that it has helped my skin be a lot smoother, too! Shea Moisture Superfruit Complex Body Lotion : such a thick, hydrating lotion !! Only thing though is I would change the packaging--maybe opt for a jar instead of a bottle because it's thicker that a traditional lotion, but thinner than a body butter. Nip & Fab Kale Fix Protecting Shot : my skin has been more balanced lately since incorporating this oil!! Since it's colder, my skin tends t...

Nonetheless, I have some really good stuff that I've been loving, so if you guys wanna know about my favorites for August, then just keep on  reading! Makeup Colourpop Element of Surprise palette : this is probably one of the most unique palettes I own! When I first saw it, I had no interest in picking it up, but when I saw it in Ulta & swatched the shade Rayon, (metallic dark coral with blue-green duochrome) I fell in love!! I never thought I'd love this palette, but I'm pleasantly surprised! Colourpop x KathleenLights Dream St. Palette :  another great option for a few pops of color + neutral shades! Unlike the Element of Surprise, this one is more a warm toned color scheme .  Also, I...
