June Favorites

Saying that I can’t believe it’s July would be an understatement. I can’t believe we are half-way through the year!! HOW?! I feel like if I blink too fast it will be Christmas. I can safely say that as I get older, time seems to go by faster.

I usually don’t do favorites posts as I can sometimes get into a routine (more like rut!) of using the same products. In June, I added some new products to my routine and rediscovered some old products that I have fallen in love with once again. I also have a few fashion items that were on repeat last month.

Skincare


The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil: I used this as a spot treatment a couple of years ago and stopped using it for some reason. I recently repurchased it and am so glad I did! I swear if I apply it where I feel a pimple coming on it will stop the blemish from rising. It also helps heal an already formed pimple within a few days (any brand of tea tree oil should work!)

Nip+Fab Glycolic Scrub  I use this scrub once or twice a week to exfoliate my skin. The grains in the scrub are very small and fine, perfect for sensitive skin. I find that this product exfoliates my skin without irritating it. I also find the glycolic acid in this scrub helps reduce texture and fade dark spots.

Makeup

Bareminerals Original Foundation and The Tarte Shape Tape Concealer: It is extremely hot here in Texas! When it’s this hot, I avoid wearing too much face makeup as it has a tendency to melt off. This month I used the Tarte Shape Tape concealer (review here) to conceal dark circles and any blemishes on my face. I then went over my entire face with a light layer of Bareminerals Original Foundation powder. I found that this combination looked super natural on my skin and didn’t get as oily as a liquid foundation normally would.

Kat Von D Lolita II– Love the shade range and formula of these liquid lipsticks (full review here). Lolita II is a great brick-toned nude shade perfect for everyday. It can also be transitioned for a night out with a smokey eye!

Fashion

Blush Pink Slides: I know I’ve featured these on the blog a few times already, but I had to include them! I wore these non-stop in June. They go with almost any outfit and are super comfy. One of my favorite Forver21 finds this summer.


White OTS Top: Another great buy from Forever21! I won’t talk too much about this top as I have gone on about it in several posts (here & here). Let’s just say I will probably be wearing it just as much in July as I did in June!


A few of my favorites in action!

Kendra Scott Cuff: I received this cuff from my mom as a Birthday gift back in February. However, I didn’t really start using it until June. It was the perfect dainty accessory to add to almost any outfit (dressy or casual). I also loved how it looked with my gold vintage watch.

I hope you enjoyed seeing my favorite fashion and beauty items of June! Hoping I can discover/rediscover even more amazing products in July! What products have you guys been loving??

  1. That cuff is really cute. I didn’t know that’s what they were called. I love the little white gem on the ends 🙂
    And I’m with you on being surprised it’s July. We’re officially in the second half of 2017! 😂

  2. I loveee those slides and that top! I try not to shop at Forever 21 as much and buy more “high quality” items that will last, but their clothes and accessories are just so cute and affordable that oftentimes I just can’t resist! 😂

  3. You can never ever go wrong with some good ol Forever 21 finds, I think I tried on multiple of their off the shoulder tops like that and fell in love with everyone of them. I love the white but I’m never brave enough to wear it, I will 100% be the one that spills something on it and never be able to wear it again lol

    xo, JJ
