DEAR SUMMER......

MY JUNE PICKS .......
Ahhhhhh summer time is the best season ever ! I have been trying lots of new products and I love them all. 


1*  Fresh peaches with cream body lotion by philosophy  - This ultra-rich, luxurious formula is enriched with shea butter and aloe to help moisturize and sooth dry skin, while Vitamin E helps provide antioxidant protection against environmental attack. Infused with the scent of fresh-picked, sun-ripened peaches and sweet cream, this body lotion brings you abundant happiness and leaves skin smooth, soft, and delicately scented. I always put this on after a shower or bath ....So refreshing !


2* Beaute Initiale Precision by CHANELA refreshing moisturizing cream for skin showing a loss of radiance and/or first signs of lines. At the heart of the formula: Blue Ginger PFA*, combined with vitamins and minerals, helps protect skin from signs of age while energizing tired skin. Keeps it looking fresh, soft and comfortable, as it visibly boosts radiance, vitality and overall well-being. Soft-focus pigments give a complexion-correcting effect with a fresh, soft satin finish. Protecting against premature aging that may result from UV exposure: broad-spectrum SPF 15.

*PFA: Polyfractioned Active. An ultra-pure, ultra-powerful ingredient created through an exclusive purification technique developed by CHANEL. 

This moisturizer is the only moisturizer that works for me now .....I love it so much I have plenty of backups just incase. At school I heard people saying it might be discontinued so I went crazy and got myself couple of jars. I really hope Chanel does not get rid of this product because it took me a while to find a face moisturizer  that really works for me ....I rarely get breakouts now and my face is so super silky soft . It's the best! You must try this ..... People told me to stay away from this moisturizer because I have very oily skin and most rich creams do not work well with oily skin types but u know what it works fine for me and Im sticking to it! 

3* Bio- OilSkincare product infuses skin with rich moisturizers to hydrate and nourish. Bio-Oil Specialist Skincare for Scars, Stretch Marks, Uneven Skin Tone, Aging Skin, Dehydrated Skin can also be used as an after-sun treatment and bath oil. Formulated with PureCellin oil to make product easy for skin to absorb.

I use this stuff on my face ....Yes, most pregnant women use it on their body for stretch marks but I use it every night on my face after I cleanse my face  or after using a  exfoliator. Its a bit greasy , but a little goes a long way and it really does work. My face looks clear and I have noticed that some of the spots I had  are slowly diminishing ! I might need couple of backups of this just incase too ...lol : ) 

4* NARS Orgasm IlluminatorA multifunctional face product that gives skin a refreshed luminosity.This light-reflecting liquid glides on to refresh and enhance the complexion, creating a shimmering incandescence. Wear it alone, or pair it with makeup to transform your skin from ordinary to extraordinary. You can use this all over your body if you like but I prefer just a tinsy bit on my face right under my eyes and above my cheek bones. Gosh, this looks great on me and works well with my complexion. Sometimes I mix in a little bit of this with my moisturizer for a all around face glow. LOVE LOVE LOVE !!! 

5*  CHANEL Rouge CoCo Shine Hydrating Sheer Lipshine provides lasting moisturizing shine in a water-light texture. The formula glides on for easy application, and a unique HYDRATENDRE complex hydrates and softens lips, giving them a healthier and fuller appearance. Available in a complete range of shades, from delicate beiges to dazzling berries, with a hint of shimmer to enhance a glossy finish. My favorite colors are #41 canotier , # 44 sari d' eau and # 46 Liberte. When I put these lip colors on I feel like I am putting on a lip balm and it feels great on my lips !

6* PHLOOF eyeshadow by MAC  -Frosted Off- White eyeshadow,  this is a great highlight color or you can just do this color on your lid and it really opens your eyes up or dap a little bit  your tear duct to finish a look and to make the look really POP ! 

7* MAUVEMENT or # A50 pigment by MACtaupey-mauve pigment , very close to satin taupe eyeshadow by MAC and #45 Safari eyeshadow by CHANEL . I use this color when I am doing a smokey look ....its perfect for a everyday smokey eye look! 

8* Speaking of #45 Safari eyeshadow by CHANEL  lol its one of my june picks also because I just love taupey colors especially when Im doing a smokey eye look or its also perfect for a everyday one color look.

9* Glossimer AURORE #287 by CHANELIntense frost and shine for lips . This is a coral/ peach color with gold frost/ shimmer . It looks great when worn alone or on top of other coral or peach color lipsticks. great gloss for the summertime .... it's the perfect summertime color! 

10 * LOREAL VOLUMINOUS CARBON BLACK MASCARA - Can I just say
 '' WOW " for a drugstore mascara this is crazy great! Let me just tell you I have many many high end mascaras and somehow this one beats most of them. It looks like I have false lashes on when I wear this mascara and I always get compliments. It doesn't clump up and look cheap at all like most drugstore mascaras. Its the perfect Mascara for me and I think I will be using this mascara all summer long! Another mascara I do wear other than this is DIOR SHOW BLACK OUT mascara which is great as well.


11* NARS TAOS BLUSH - Desert rose with shimmer (Designed to be worn alone or layered together for more depth, NARS Blush provides a healthy glow to flatter any skintone) I use this blush whenever I wear a simple eye look or no eyeshadow at all.... It really does the trick and make you GLOW !!!!  Perfect when paired with pink / coral color lipsticks .
