♥ Review: Lush Ocean Salt ♥

Heyy girls,

since the cold weather is coming up, I was on a hunt for a good facial scrub. I've tried many brands like Simple and Micheal Todd but I didn't fall in love with their facial scrub. The Simple scrub was okay, it had an overwhelming plastic smell to it which is the main reason why I wasn't amaze by this product. I did really like the Micheal Todd Jojoba (I think it is called) facial scrub though. But I found another one that I liked better! And the winner is...(drum rolls) Lush Ocean Salt!

 


I've been using this product for a couple of weeks now and like I said earlier, I am in love with it. It doesn't dry out your skin since there is avocado and coconut oils in it, which have moisturizing properties.

UPDATE: I need your help!

heyy girls!

Today is Thursday and I don't have school until Monday which is great because I have more time to write. I just wanted to do a quick post on what I have been doing those past weeks that leaded to the lack of post on my blog. First, I want to sincerely apologize for the missing articles and the lack of effort from me. I don't even know what happened... I guess I just forgot that I had to post an article or I just didn't have any ideas on what I should write about.

So please! Leave me a comment telling me what you want me to write about. It can be a makeup collection, a fall makeup look, Lush products review or anything beauty or fashion related.

I also have some questions for you...

What are your recommendations for a foundation that has a dewy finish, has medium to full coverage, has neutral shades for fair skin and isn't drying on the skin or leaves you look like you have a mask on your face. ;)

Also, I wanted to know which high end palette you would like to win for my 1 year blog anniversary giveaway(Naked, Naked 2, Too faced Naked Eyes, etc).

You can also talk to me through Twitter if you want to ;) @MissBeauty4all or you can follow me on Instagram: @missbeauty4all

I hope you're having a nice day,

♥ Ipsy Bag: September 2013 ♥

heyy girs,

I'm here today with another Ipsy bag post! If you don't know what Ipsy is, it is basically a monthly subscription service where you pay 10$ a month and you get 5-6 deluxe size beauty samples. So far, I've really been liking it and I highly recommend you to check it out if you're interested (here). Lets see what I got in this month Ipsy bag!...


 
The first thing that I got is this sample from Michelle Phan's new cosmetics line. It is called EM and I'm very excited to try those eyeshadows out and the blush too ;)
 


Next, I got this Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter. It is suppose to be a brow bone highlighter I guess but sincerely I don't really think it is that brightening. This is why I use it on my water line to make me look more awake.


I also got this Starlook eyeliner in ObsidianI have to say that I don't really like it. The color seems to be black and it doesn't come off very black on my hand. It also doesn't go on smoothly. I was very disappointed with that product...

To obtain that color I went over and over with the eyeliner.
Next, I got the It's So Big! mascara from Elizabeth Mott. I like it. I think it is a good mascara, it is very black and I LOVE the brush. I'm not sure if I would repurchased it though because I haven't worn it enough to really have an opinion.


In my Ipsy bag, I also received this Cailyn tinted lip balm in Big Apple. First, I HATE the color. Don't get me wrong, I love me some red lipsticks but this is the ugliest red I've ever seen. Seriously!?! I don't really know how to describe it...it just looks cheap on the lips (??). AND it is SO much drying on the lips and it is suppose to be a LIP BALM. I love the applicator though...and the pigmentation of the product but that's it ;)


The last thing that I got is this NYX eyeshadow in 108 Golden Puppy. I really don't like the color. I like the texture and the pigmentation though... I just wish that I've gotten another color than this yellow one.

🍁 Fall 2013 Fashion Trends 🍁

heyy girls,

as you know Fall is coming very soon and I wanted to share with you some of the fashion trends that I'm excited to wear or that I just think are wearable and cute ;)


Army trend

This trend has been going on for a while now and I think it is there to stay. I love this trend because it is a little bit more daring than what I usually like to wear.

Tall Boots (Riding Boots) trend
 
I'm going to be honest with you, I haven't own a pair of tall boots in a while. I just always thought that they didn't look good on me and that they took to much effort to put on and take off for school. But recently, I've been obsessed with this kind of look. I think it is the perfect fall accessory. This means that I NEED to go out and buy a pair...#happygirl

Knit Beanie trend

This fall, knit beanie will most likely be huge. I don't remember if it was the case last year but I know that a lot of people already wear them but I'm excited to try this trend since I've never bought a beanie before. Again, I didn't thought that I could pull it off but this year I want to experiment with my look :)

♥ August 2013 Favorites ♥

heyy girls,

I know I am late (kind of) for my August monthly favorites but seriously! Where did August go?! It's already September now and school has begun for a couple of weeks now. Am I the only one who thinks that it is a bit depressive? Anyway...

Today I'm here with my favorites beauty wise and fashion wise for the month of August. Don't hesitate to leave in the comments what products you have been enjoying recently!

**Also I just wanted to quickly mention that if you want me to review some of the Lush products that I got don't be afraid to tweet me your requests or just leave a comment below :) **

Here are the links to the products that I got:
Haul: Forever 21, Lush, Sephora....(here)
Haul: Lush....(here)


The first thing that I've been liking this month is my Naked Basics. You know that I already use this palette every single day to fill in my eyebrows BUT this month I've also been reaching to it a lot to do very simple and natural makeup looks since I don't like to wear a ton of makeup at work.


I've also been liking this eyeshadow from MAC which is called Shroom. In my opinion this is the most beautiful highlight that I've ever seen in my life. I don't only use it on my eyes, I use it to highlight the top of my cheekbones with it. GORGEOUS!

Next product that I've been loving this month is my (kind of) new mascara from Covergirl. I hauled it a couple of weeks ago I believe and I've been in LOVE with it since the first use. It is a little bit more dramatic than the Covergirl Lashperfection but it still looks very natural and awesome ;) 


Those couple of weeks I've also been reaching almost everyday for my ELF Professional brushes. I've been loving the eyeshadow brush which is awesome for packing on the color on the lid. I've also been using the crease brush to put Shroom on the inner corner since it is too small to use in the crease. In the crease, I've been using almost every time the blending brush to apply color in the crease and to slightly blend the colors together. I prefer my Real Techniques crease brush to blend the edges though.
 
The ELF Professional Crease Brush

The ELF Professional Blending Brush.
The ELF Professional Crease Brush.
Another brush that I've been loving to apply my makeup is the ELF Studio Powder Brush. Since it is flat and dense it is the perfect brush to apply foundation. If you're looking for an inexpensive brush to apply your liquid or powder foundation I highly recommend you to check out this 3$ ELF brush.
The last beauty product that I've been loving this month is the Olay Clean & Mild Make-Up Removing Cloths. It doesn't irritate my skin and it does remove my makeup pretty well. BUT, it isn't good at removing eye makeup. For me it isn't a big deal because I prefer using an eye makeup remover since I find it does the job quicker.


This month I only have one fashion favorite. I know that I got this Brandy Melville Infinity Ring at the end of the month but I'm just OBSESSED with it. I've been wearing it almost every single day...What can I say..I'm in love! ;)

👜 Haul Feat. Lush 👜

heyy girls

I know what you are probably thinking right now..."Another haul!?" Some of you may be excited and some of you might just be exasperated by my lack of self-control. Well, I have no excuse. I have to confess that I am now addicted to Lush and I kind of want to try every single thing that they sell but that's another story ;) Here is what I got when I went to Lush for the second time in one week...



The first thing that I bought is Stepping Stones which is a foot scrub. It was very inexpensive and I've wanted to try this product for a couple of weeks now. I'm excited to see if it will do its job well ;) Let me know if you want a review!

 
Next thing that I got is the American Cream. It is one of their most popular conditioner and I've read good things about it. I got the smallest bottle since I wanted to try the product first before purchasing the full size.








I also got their famous soap called Honey, I washed the kids!. I just got a little chunk of it. I hope it is as good as everyone is saying ;) It smells good though!


Since I don't want my soap to melt into the shower, I picked up this Body Butter Tin to put my new soap in it. It is very nice for traveling or just to keep in your shower ;)


The lady, who was the same that I met in my last haul, did recognize me and she kindly gave me two samples. I first got the I Love Juicy shampoo. She told me that it is good to control oils and that it helps your hair looking more clean on the second day.


The second and last sample that I got is the Fair Trade Foot Lotion. Since I got the foot scrub I decided the I needed a good foot cream to moisturize my feet after using the Stepping Stones. I love how the samples that they give because it is always a good "deluxe size" as I like to say.
