My May Fav's

Happy June! 


SUMMER IS COMING! Yay! So, if you follow my FB page then you saw that I said that I was going to have a post up two days ago aka Saturday… Well, today is Monday so that means that I was not one but two days late! Oopsies! 

Literally five seconds after I decided that I was FINALLY going to post something I got a message asking if I wanted to go to a twins game on Saturday and sit in a suite so I was like DUH! Who turns down a Twins game? I mean really, who would?

Then on Sunday I sat down and was going to do it and then what do you know? My charger that actually works is in St. Cloud.  I am scatter brained… It’s life.

In case any of you were wondering, Saturday was SUCH a fun day! I love unexpectedly fun weekends. Here were the best parts of zee day.

The view.


The people.



The desert cart… Diva Cake. Enough said.


And my personal favorite…The mechanical bull. Bucket list… Check!


It was a great day!

So, I have been bouncing around a few blog ideas and since it is the 1st day of June, I figured I would post my May favorites.

Cover Girl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3-In-1 Foundation.
So, I found a new drugstore foundation! I was walking in Target with my sister and I walked up to it cause I have heard really good things about this foundation and she was like “you’re buying Cover Girl?!?” and I was like YASSS because I am usually not a Cover Girl face product fan like what so ever but hey, I am now. It is a 3-in-1 because it has foundation, primer, and concealer all built in. I still use primer and concealer when I am applying it though. I love the texture, love the coverage, and I love the packaging because it is a pump! Yay! I apply it with my beauty blender and it looks amazing.

Milani Baked Blush in Luminoso
I FINALLY got my hands on this little ball of amazingness again. One perk of living in St. Cloud is the CVS’s. You can find Luminoso at some Wal-Mart’s and all CVS’s so you gotta snag it while you can’t is probably my favorite blush high end and low end. This blush is amazing and every single person should buy it. Yes, I am talking to you! ;)

NYX High Voltage Lipstick in Stone
I have been rather into the whole cool toned look this month (maybe it is because of the raining weather) and this lipstick has been on my lips throughout the entire month because of that! This lipstick is the most perfect grey, purplely, brownish tone and it has GREAT color pay off! If you like the cool toned lipstick look, go buy this! Not to mention… It’s super tiny and easy to take with you like anywhere. P.S. I will be going back to get other colors too.

Maybelline Color Elixir in Nude Illusion
I have mentioned these before but this one is my favorite! It is such a beautiful color and it is perfect for that whole “your lips but better” look. I put it on top of everything just because I love the formula. I put it on top of my NYX High Voltage Lipstick and it looks pretty damn good! Love this so much! Perfect for summer.

Makeup Geek Single Pan Eye Shadow in Rapunzel
We all know how much I love Makeup Geek but this shade is the best! I have been using this all the time as just an everyday shade or like a shade if I am ready to go out on the town (if I decide that my couch can have a break for the night). Any who, this shadow is like a yellowish champagne vanilla color with a slight shimmer to it! It is like a toned down version of Shimma Shimma and I think that is why I like it so much. It is amazing.

Makeup Geek Single Pan Eye Shadow in Barcelona Beach
Like I said, cool tones have been my life lately and this is a perfect transition shade for those cool toned looks! I love it because it is too not warm but it is too not cool… It’s very neutral and basically perfect.

Too Faced Natural Matte Eye Shadow Palette
Love, love, love! This is PERFECT for every day use. It has nine different shades and the names of them are the cutest things ever. I honestly don’t know what I would do without this palette for when I go to work because it is what I use almost every day that I am in the office (I am so grown up when I say that). It is $36.00 and worth every penny!

Too Faced Better than Sex Mascara
Just buy it. It’s amazing.

Neutrogena Acne Stress Control Triple-Action Toner
I had a blog about how much problems I have been having with my skin lately and it is FINALLY almost gone! I think honestly owe it to this toner. I have heard amazing things about this toner and sometimes I feel like high-end toners aren’t really worth the hype aka the Clinique one which burns your face off. If you have issues with your skin, get this one and apply it like twice a day!

Neutrogena Rapid Clear Stubborn Acne Cleanser
Hi, I love this stuff! Fine, maybe it was the combination of the toner and this cleanser that helped my skin get better! I love this product. I have used it twice a day everyday for a while now and my skin is getting better and better. Thank the lord almighty!

Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is so multi purpose but this month I have been using it a lot as a nightly moisturizer. Yes, I would oil all over my face. People don’t realize that putting healthy oil and a good oil like coconut oil will actually help you with various things like dry skin, oily skin, and it helps with scaring a ton! I put it on my face every night and I love it. I have no issues what so ever with it! Try it and see how it is.

Big Sexy Hair Get Layered Hairspray
I am really loving this stuff! It is perfect for how I like to do my hair, which are just really messy curls. It is not stiff or sticky and it just gives your hair like the perfect fluff. I love this product!

Hand & Nail Harmony Nail Prep pH Bond
I have the world’s best friend who used to do my nails once a week at school (Emily, I’m talking to you) and she gave me this stuff! She went to cosmetology school and gives me all the details about nail and hair prep. This stuff makes such a difference with how long your nail polish stays! You just take off your polish, put this on, and then do your bottom coat, polish, and topcoat. It is amazing! If you can get your hands on it, buy it!

Welp, there are all my addictions for you! Hope you go out and try some!

I am hoping to get a couple step-by-steps in this week because my “go to office” look is calling my name!

Have a great 1st day of June!

Xoxo,


Clarissa
