October Favourites

Am I the only one that’s seriously sad that October is over? Honestly, I thought I loved the holiday season more, but this October I really realized it’s my favourite month. Between the beginning of fall and halloween, it’s just perfection. Now, often this post is filled with rediscoveries and old favourites, but this month is entirely new discoveries! I’ve been going a tad crazy with my purchases lately, so naturally my beauty routines pretty much consist entirely of new products. Let’s see what I’ve been loving for the month of October…

Now, I’m hoping to write an in depth skincare routine update, but I couldn’t very well write this without mentioning the product I’ve been using every day this month. I rarely steer out of what I’m used to when it comes to my skincare, but I’ve actually been experimenting a lot recently. I’ve made a few too many Sephora orders lately, but the upside is the amount of deluxe samples I’ve gotten. I ended up with about 4 of the It Cosmetics Secret Sauce and it’s a pretty huge sample to be honest, all adds up to 20ml. I’ve been beyond obsessed with this, it’s the first moisturizer I’ve really seen results with and fell in love with. More on this soon…

Absolutely gorgeous. I mean, do I really need to explain? You were all dying with me over this palette when I hauled it, and it has yet to disappoint. Now, the one thing I will say is that it might not be worth the money- solely because I do think a few of the colors count as one since they look identical on the lid. Regardless, this formula is unreal and the color range is perfection for me. I’ve used this every time I wore makeup this month, without fail!

Girl, just you wait. Endless rambling and raving coming on this beauty very very soon. Suffice it to say, Estee Edit is out – this is very very in.

Another Too Faced Haul victim, this beautiful Melted Matte in Gingerbread has been giving me all kinds of life. I haven’t used this formula in so long, I had almost forgotten how much I love it. I’m so sad I discovered this so late into fall, but honestly that’s not going to stop me from rocking it all year round!

Now, I don’t know about you guys but I really struggle to review setting mists. Whether it’s because I’ve yet to find the perfect one or because I can’t gage how well one works. Well, the reason the Morphe Continuous Setting Mist has been a favourite is due to a simple reason; I love using it. This does what most of my setting mists do in terms of taking away the powdery/cakey finish of my makeup and letting it all melt into my skin. Aside from that, I’ve been reaching for this one so much more because of the mist itself. It sprays like a deodorant and just feels so light and weightless. This is hands down the best spritz I’ve ever tried- and I’ll continue to repurchase for that reason alone!
