I cannot believe April is already here! This year is flying by so fast. You guys know what that means. It's a round up of monthly favorites.
Starting from left to right:
-Yu-Be Moisturizing Skin Cream: This was a God send the beginning of the month. Due to the dry heat and cold air, my face was so dry. Every time I put on foundation, I couldn't help but notice the ugly flaking. Once I got this, I applied it onto the trouble spots along with my regular moisturizer and then my foundation. Some reviews I read said not to put it on your face, but this didn't break me out at all. The camphor smell also dissipates, though it wasn't unpleasant smelling to me. This cream can also be applied to dry cracked lips as well.
-L'Oreal Colour Riche Balm in Rose Elixir and Pink Satin: At first I didn't like care too much for these. I had compared them to the Revlon Lip Butters (they are not comparable to each other at all btw) and immediately disliked the lesser color payoff. It wasn't till I started using it on a regular basis that I began to love these. These are super moisturizing, have a sweet scent and leave your lips plumper and hydrated. Pink Satin leaves a beautiful iridescent sheen while Rose Elixir matches my lips exactly.
-Maybelline Dream Lumi Concealer: This highlights and conceals and does not feel thick on my face at all. It's enough coverage for me to just slap this on with some translucent powder. For those with deeper scars or blemishes, this may not be enough coverage.
-Revlon PhotoReady 3D Volume: I've been looking more into non-waterproof formulas as of late. Why? Because it's so much easier to take off at night! This is a supposed dupe for BeneFit's They're Real mascara. It lengthens my lashes and separates them. The curl does drop, but I still really like this mascara.
-Make Up Forever Aqua Cream in 12: Great as a base or just to wear by itself. Described as a "Golden Copper" it really brightens my eyes for a bright eyed look. I usually pair this with just mascara for a "natural" look. Even though it's a cream product, it doesn't crease after hours of wear.
