Huge Collective Haul--See what's in my mailbox!

Hey you! Is there anything better than new beauty stuff? I think not! ;) I've got a ton of stuff to share with you for this month. Getcha a snack, get comfortable, and let's see what's new!



My "baby" sister (she's 19) has gorgeous red hair. But it's short, thin, curly, and fine. When I received this product from Aviva, I immediately gave it to her. And she is LOVING it. She has definitely noticed growth in her hair. It WORKS! She's had this product for months and highly recommends it. $59.95


Time for some hair care! If you love the scent and effect of Moroccan argan oil, give the Pro Naturals kit a try. I got to try out the shampoo, conditioner, mask, and treatment, and I loved ALL of them. If you have damaged hair that needs treating, give this system a try. Seriously. Softness city. My sister has been loving this too. $129.99




Speaking of that argan oil scent, I've got something for the whole body. Suave is now bringing the spa into your home with its new Suave® Professionals premium Body Care line infused with quality ingredients like authentic argan oil from Morocco and Awapuhi Ginger. I'm obsessed with these and am making my friends try these whenever they stay at my house. It's like a spa day at home. You can even mix the body wash with sugar (or salt or brown sugar) to create an instant scrub. Trust me and buy these already! I got to try the lotion, body oil (love this after shaving), and 2 body washes. Find these affordable products in drugstores.

I am forever a contour fan, and I swear by a cream product. I was thrilled to try the newly-released BECCA’s Lowlight Scupting Perfector.  It adds depth and dimension by naturally accentuating the low points of the face. The balance of natural shadow color and skin tones creates the perfect lowlight shade for glowing, healthy looking skin. It looks dark here but trust me when I tell you it looks great on my light-medium skin tone. You can see examples of me using it in any of my pics from the last month. Sephora, $38



It's no secret that there's a 90s brown lip revival going on, right? And this one from Gerard Cosmetics looks just like the one rocked by Kylie Jenner at the MTV Movie Awards recently. Get it (or any of the MANY colors available) for $24

I've been loving some Pur Minerals lately (I'm sharing a new product of theirs on Friday). The shadow trios are easy to store and carry for travel (they don't crease!!), and I love the ease of their lip gloss sticks--just beautiful washes of color. Find these online or at ULTA.

Milani has a new line of polishes out, with plenty of colors to please any nail polish lover. Pictured here are a classic red, a white (finally a good white polish that goes on well in 1 coat), and a gorgeous gold glitter (looks pretty over other colors). All are pictured as 1 coat. Find these in drugstores.

Mirabella beauty has a new CC Creme! It has oil control (great for oily and combo skin) and SPF 20 broad spectrum. It's perfect for those of us who don't like foundation or just want to blur those imperfections. I like combining both the light and medium to match my skin at the moment. Bamboo Water hydrates, Apple Water soothes, Rice Extract brightens, Avocado Oil improves skin texture, Witch Hazel controls oil, Acai Berry keeps skin looking young, SPF 20 Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protects skin. All skin types. Non-greasy. Paraben-free, FD&C Dye-free, Gluten-free. 3 shades. $42


I've shared my love for these Mirabella Colour Vinyl lipsticks before--because they are awesome! These highly-pigmented shades provide rich, nourishing color including nude with a hint of caramel (Caramel Crème), brown-nude with berry tones (Mulberry Mocha), a rich red with pink sheen (Vintage Vibe), and a vibrant berry with violet hues (Icy Violet). Berry Flux Vita, a raspberry extract, Argan Oil, and Lychee Fruit Extract allow the product to glide on smoothly, moisturizing and rejuvenating lips -- ideal for the upcoming cold, drying weather. Colour Vinyl Lipsticks combine full-coverage color with the shine of a gloss for an extended 10-hour wear. $24

Any easy way to switch up a look is with clip-in bangs. With Hair2Wear by Christie Brinkley Collection, it’s easier than ever to get the look without the commitment! Save money and avoid the risks of committing to a trendy haircut with the Full Sweeping Side Fringe clip-in. It’s not too wispy, not too heavy and tailored to lay flat and natural, for a look that’s incredibly realistic. Available in 11 shades (I'm wearing medium brown).


Mineral Fusion is another brand I've shared on here before, and couldn't wait to get my hands on their shadows and blushes. First up is a trio in Jaded, a green and silver smoky eye kit for a perfect way to dress up a simple outfit--$24.99. Then, look at this blush in Smashing--perfect for fall ($21.99). All products are nicely pigmented and can be found at Whole Foods or online.
Every product was sent for consideration.

  9. I dislike the argan scents sometimes, but my skin gets drier every year and for the price of Suave I could totally try it. I'm heading to the drugstore at lunch, I hope they have it there! Thanks.

  53. You got so many great things! I've been wondering about the Suave moroccan oil line. Wasn't a fan of the keratin so I've been hesitant to try it.

    ReplyDelete
  54. The hair products in particular interest me and definitely seem worth trying. I'm always on the look out for new nail polish too (even though I already have too many!) I just can't rsist them.

    ReplyDelete
