Okay guys, so this is probably my favorite favorites post of the year. SO many goodies to share with y'all! Let's go ahead and jump into it :)
Shew.. look at all of these goodies!
Body/Hair
I bought some 100% natural Shea Butter and holy moly.. this stuff is the bomb.com for the colder months! My skin has gotten so dry lately that lotion just wasn't enough for me. I put this on right before I go to bed and when I wake up, my skin is hydrated and feels amazing. A winter must have!
I recently bought the Alterna Bamboo Smooth Anti-Breakage Thermal Protectant Spray (what a mouth full) but loveeeeeeeeeeee. I wash my hair 1-2 times a week and when it's damp I will spray this on my ends and it detangles my hair and when my hair dries, it is just so much more easy to style the way I want to.
I got the Algenist Retinol Firming and Lifting Serum from Sephora as a sample. I got this because I've heard a lot of beauty gurus talk about how this brand is amazing and they always snag samples when Sephora offers them. I found out why they snag the samples after I checked the prices of everything.. lord have mercy. But anyways, I see the hype for this brand! I have been wanting to try retinol for a while now. I had a bad experience with a Neutrogena one a while back so I ditched it but I wanted to try different ones. This one is so good for sensitive skin which is what I have and it hasn't broken me out or anything like that. It will make your skin a little dry (which is normal) so make sure to put a moisturizer on after putting any retinol cream on.
Makeup
First off, just look at those swatches.. have mercy. SO gorgeous.
Bite Beauty High Pigment Pencil in Pomegranate: New favorite lipstick of LIFE. I want to wear this everyday, everywhere, 24/7.. I love it.
Flower Beauty Velvet Lipstick in Set Me Freesia: New favorite nude lip. I recently got rid of all my makeup products that tested on animals (which I'm still researching because I want no part of that.) So needless to say, all of my favorite nudes were from brands who did test on animals, so I bought this on a whim and I actually really, really like it. Go Drew Barrymore!
Josie Maran Coconut Watercolor Eyeshadow in Rio De Rose Gold: The most amazing pigmented eyeshadow I have ever tried in my life. I officially never want to be without this amazing product. I wore this the other day and it literally lasted all day long with no eye primer or setting spray. Obsessed.
100% Pure Fruit Pigmented Concealer: I wear this on days where I don't wear a lot of makeup but somehow it manages to make me look so fresh faced. I put it in my t-zone and underneath my eyes and it's just so natural looking. I really like this concealer for everyday wear.
Tarte Skinny SmolderEYES Amazonian Clay Waterproof Liner in Sunstone Bronze: First of all, when they say waterproof.. they MEAN waterproof. Secondly, this color alone I think would suit every eye color out there. Brown eyes, blue eyes, hazel eyes, green eyes.. I think it would just be absolutely gorgeous on anyone. I wore this on my waterline with the Josie Maran eyeshadow and I seriously had to refrain from taking too many selfies because the eye look was just so on point.

Hope you guys enjoyed this post, had an amazing Thanksgiving, and get excited because it's almost Christmas! xo
