Rebecca Loves: EOS Lip Balm!

I bought the EOS lip balm when I was in Florida in September. I heard so much about them I couldn't wait to get my hands on one. I bought the strawberry sorbet flavour and it smells and tastes amazing!!!!! It's SO good! I bought it for $4.29 in Walgreens so it wasn't too expensive. It's really hydrating on your lips and makes them lovely and soft. It lasts for ages on the lips too so you don't have to keep reapplying every so often. I would really recommend them. You can get them on Cloud 10 Beauty and there's also a similar brand called Balmi that you can get in Boots.

Let me know if you've tried them out!

November Favourites!

For today's post I'm going to briefly mention what I have been loving throughout the month of November. Let me know what you think and what your favourites are!

Nyx Lipstick

I have been loving this colour lately. It is such a nice colour, it's really smooth and can be worn with just about anything. Definitely been my go-to lipstick this month.

Baby Lips

Really loving these this month. Perfect for hydrating those dried out lips! They smell amazing and the darker pink one is a really nice lip colour as well. Would definitely recommend buying one of these!

MUA Bronzer

I've used this product every day in the last month and I don't intend on stopping anytime soon! I got this back in July or August as it was on sale for only 50cent! I didn't have much hope for it to be honest but I absolutely love it for contouring. It's darker than my normal bronzer and I've been seriously loving it. Will definitely be re-purchasing soon.

MUA Shimmer Kiss Bronzer

Again, I bought this over the summer super cheap and didn't really expect much from it. I've been using it as a highlighter and it works really well. It's really subtle and not very shimmery which I like.

NYC Blusher-West Side Wine

I really like this blusher and I think it's perfect for winter. It's really subtle and works well with the bronzer I use for contouring. It was really cheap and I will definitely be re-purchasing it.

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle

My hair has been really dry lately so I started using this again. I've had this for about a year and a half now and use it every now and again especially during summer when my hair is super dry. This stuff is amazing!!!! It leaves your hair so soft and silky, really shiny and your hair looks so healthy. I usually tend to use this once a week or maybe 2 times a week when my hair is really dry. I've heard it can actually damage your hair if you use it to replace your normal conditioner so I suggest only using it now and again. I highly recommend it!

Tressemme Hairspray

I got this hairspray last month for my graduation and it is so good. It was on offer in Tesco at the time so I said I'd just chance it. It smells really good and really holds your hair in place without looking like you've just drowned your hair in hairspray. It's a big bottle too which is good. 

Snapchat

I only really jumped on the Snapchat bandwagon about a month or two ago but I seriously love it. I think it's a really good app and definitely one of my favourites and most regularly used!

Wagon Wheel-Nathan Carter

This song was played on the night of my graduation and I loved it straight away. I know it's been out ages but I never actually knew what it was called. Haven't stopped listening to it since!

Florida

Finally, I left the best til last! I think it's safe to say that I absolutely fell in love with Florida and it could definitely make it to every monthly favourites post for the next year haha! I was recently looking through the photos so that's why it's included in this post. Florida was literally the best place I have ever been to and cannot wait to go back (hopefully next summer...ahem Kevin?!).

So these were all my November favourites I hope you enjoyed reading them!

American Beauty Haul!

Hey everyone!

It actually feels like FOREVER since I last blogged (sorry!). Anyway since I got back from America, I was straight back to college and have had literally no time to do anything. I just started a masters and I've so much work to do so that's pretty much all I've been doing. Anyway enough with the excuses haha! Here's a few beauty items I picked up while I was on holidays in Florida. I literally had the best time ever there. It's such an amazing place and everyone's so friendly. I'll put up a random photo post soon so you can see what it was like.

I didn't get as much beauty products as I thought I was going to get. They had loads of the same brands we can get here in Ireland and I wanted to get some stuff that I can't get. Some stuff was more expensive than I was expecting so I just picked up a few cheaper products instead. Let me know what you think or if you've used any of these products before let me know how you got on with them.

Wet n Wild Coloricon Bronzer in 739 Ticket to Brazil

Everyone knows I love my bronzer! I haven't used this yet but initially when I bought it I thought it was going to be similar to the Essence one I normally use. It's quite pigmented but has a little bit of shimmer which I don't really like so I'm not sure if I'll use it much. I'll definitely use it during the summer though. I got this for $4.49 in Walgreens.

EOS Lip Balm in Strawberry Sorbet

I've heard so much about this before I went and I couldn't wait to get it but to be honest it's not all that it's made out to be. It's kind of dry and doesn't really spread well onto the lips. It comes out clear which is good for just softening the lips but I don't find it very good for hydrating my lips. I got this for $4.29 in Walgreens.

Wet n Wild 80% Longer Lashes Waterproof Mascara in C143 Very Black

This mascara is actually quite good. I think it's really good for de-clumping your lashes and the smaller brush is perfect for the lower lash line. It was $3.49 in Walgreens.

Maybelline Baby Lips in Pink Shock and Pink Punch

Everyone has literally been raving about these all summer so I was so excited to try them out. I got the pink shock colour as it's quite subtle but still adds a bit of colour. The pink punch is one of my favourite beauty purchases in a while. I love how it's a darker colour but still a lip balm. They taste amazing and make your lips so soft. These were $4.79 each in Walgreens.

Wet n Wild Lipstick in 502A Dark Pink Frost and 511B Nouveau Pink

Saw these lipsticks and debated whether or not I'd get them. Then I saw they were only $0.99 each in Walgreens and that made up my mind fairly quickly! I have loads of bright pink lipsticks and the Nouveau Pink one is pretty much the same as them all but maybe not as dark. The darker colour (Dark Pink Frost) is almost like a darker nude colour. It's quite shimmery and comes out quite light.

Elf Lip Stain in 22121 Pink Petal

I've heard a lot about lip stains but never actually bought one. I saw this one and figured I'd try it out. The texture is weird and it actually felt and tasted like I was drawing on my lips with a marker. The colour itself is actually a nice natural colour and it stays on for so long. It's a good base for a lighter lipstick or a clear lip balm or gloss. However, I found it really dried out my lips. I got it for only $2 in Target.

Elf Liquid Eyeliner in 4203 Black
I don't really use eyeliner that much but as this was only $1 in Target I figured I should just buy it. It's really easy to use, the brush is good and it really stays put which is great when you're out but not so great when you try and take it off haha!

NYX Lip Smacking Fun Colours Lipstick in 529 Thalia

Ok I am literally in love with this lipstick. It's so much nicer on than it looks. It's such a perfect day-time colour. It's a darker pinky nude colour and it's probably my favourite lipstick ever! I've practically worn it every day since I got it and so many people have admired it. It's a creamy texture and really pigmented. Loving it SO much. It was $3.99 in Target.

Wet n Wild Coloricon Blusher in 832E Heather Silk

This is such a pigmented blusher. It has a reddish tone to it that is actually a little dark so I only use a small bit of it. It comes with a little brush that's handy for travelling when you don't want to bring loads of brushes. It was $2 in Walgreens.

Conair 1¼ inch Curling Iron

I've always wanted a medium sized barrel in a curler and when I saw this I knew it'd be perfect. You get bigger, loose curls which was exactly what I wanted. It has different heat settings and heats up really quick. It was $20.99 in Walgreens.

Ok so that's all for my American beauty haul! I hope you enjoyed reading it! Let me know what you think of the products or if you have any questions please let me know. Have another few posts planned so hopefully they'll be up soon!
