Happy second day of October, everyone! This is my favourite time of the year. The days are getting warmer, Halloween is right around the corner and I leave for my holiday in a couple of weeks!
But before I get too into October, I still have some September business to attend to. Firstly, my September Favourites. There have been a few standout products from last month that I want to talk about today. So let’s dive in!
TOO FACED CHOCOLATE SOLEIL MATTE BRONZER – $44.00
I’ve had this bronzer kicking around for a little while now. So I figured I should probably use it before it expires. This bronzer is beautiful for day to day wear! It is the right amount of bronze without being too rosy or too cool. I’ve also been using it as an eyeshadow for lazy makeup days. I will certainly be picking up the full size when this runs out.
MAYBELLINE SUPER STAY MATTE INK in AMAZONIAN – $19.95
I own quite a few of the Matte Inks. But this is the first one that I’ve owned that I have been unable to stop wearing. It’s such a gorgeous, deep brown based nude which looks fantastic either on it’s own or with super bronzey make up. If you like deeper nudes, I highly recommend this shade. If you want to read my review on the Matte Inks, I will link it here.
MAX FACTOR EXCESS INTENSITY LONGWEAR EYE PENCIL in GOLD – $21.95
I picked this up on a whim a few weeks back and I have been wearing it every day since. I have been using it in place of a nude eyeliner, but it also works really well in the inner corner. It’s creamy, long wearing and it adds just a hint of bling to any eye look.
CLINIQUE MOISTURE SURGE 72hr AUTO REPLENISHING HYDRATOR – $60.00
My favourite moisturiser of all time. I mean this without a hint of hyperbole. Every time I use it, I’m reminded just how much I love it. It is a gel based formula that sinks into the skin. It leaves you feeling moisturised without feeling sticky, it doesn’t break me out and it helps improve the wear of my makeup. I cannot talk about this moisturiser enough!
MECCA MAX GLOW POWDER HIGHLIGHTING DUO in BRONZE HEAT – $25.00
When these glow powders launched late last month, I wasn’t sure if I was going to grab one. But when one of my blogger friends insisted I tried these out, I placed a sneaky Mecca order to grab one of them. Guys, these are beautiful! I got the shade Bronze Heat and it’s so versatile. The lighter shade is an amazing highlight and the bronze shade is perfect as a lid colour on the eyes.
And those are my favourites for September! Let me know what you guys loved last month down below. I hope that October is awesome for you all as well!
Cheers and love
