Favorite Products Of The Month : April 2014

Here is an overview of the products that I have been using a lot during the month of April.



 















1- Sephora Bronzer in the color Los Cabos (21 $).
I have used this bronzer during the entire winter. It looks natural, blends beautifully and is completely matte.

2- Lise Watier Portfolio Professional Corrector in the color Beiges (32 $).
I bring this concealer palette everywhere with me. It has many colors that I can blend together to get the perfect shade. I also love the matte texture of it, since it makes the concealer stay in place for a long time. Plus, it's full coverage !

3- Bourjois Little Round Pot Blush in the color Santal (19 $).
I love Bourjois blushes for their high pigmentation and unique colors. I especially like the shade Santal, which is a perfect mix of a blush and a bronzer. It's a very shimmery reddish brown color that gives me an instant glow. My only concern with this blush (at least for the Santal shade) is that it gets very streaky if it's not properly applied.

4- Almay Powder Blush in the color Wine (10.29 $).
This blush is quite pigmented for a drugstore product. The texture is so velvety and it lasts for a long time. This wine color is perfect for my skin tone and it blends very well, which gives me a natural flush.

5- M.A.C Pro Longwear Paint Pot in the color Soft Ochre (24 $).
This is my favorite eye shadow base. It really makes your eye makeup stay for a long time and it neutralizes any darkness or redness on the lid. However, if you apply too much product, it can make your skin very dry and cakey looking. I personally only put it on my lid and avoid the brow bone.

6- Luxury Toileterie Tropical Fruit Scrub in the scent Grapefruit & Orange (9.99 $).
I really enjoy this scrub for its hydrating qualities. When applied in the shower, the sugar melts on your skin to give it a very soft texture. The hydrating effect stays even after you get dried.

7 -Maybelline Great Lash Big in the color Very Black (4.99 $).
I can't believe how inexpensive the Great Lash mascaras are, because they're some of the best out there ! I particularly love the Big Lash one, because it never makes my lashes look clumpy, while lengthening them to the max and giving them a lot of volume.

8- Maybelline Great Lash Lots Of Lahes in the color Very Black (4.99 $). The Lots Of Lashes is also one of my favorites. The brush that comes with it applies a lot of product on the roots of the lashes to make them look very thick. It's also very lengthening, more than the Big Lash one.

9- Bonne Belle Lip Smacker in the flavor Dr Pepper (1.99 $).
I have been using Lip Smackers since I was a kid ! Although I have tried other brands (Aveeno, Yves Rocher, Sally Hansen, Nivea and many more), I always come back to this one, for its instant hydrating qualities, the way it feels on my lips, the smell and its simplicity.

10- Essence Lip Liner in the color Honey Bun (1.49 $).
I just can't believe how inexpensive this brand is while carrying great quality products ! Their lip liners are very soft on the lips and don't easily smudge. I love the Honey Bun color. It's the perfect neutral brown for me and it gives me the perfect sexy pout.

11- Yves Rocher Nutrition Shampoo (4.99 $).
This shampoo has been a life saver for my overly bleached and damaged hair. It's not as softening and hydrating as a high end shampoo, but it's definitely better than a drugstore one. It's very hydrating and it makes my hair feel so soft and silky every time I use it.
