May Favorites

  For the last couple months, especially May, I have tried out a few different things and wanted to share with you the ones I have enjoyed the most! These items are great for spring and summer time. They either smell fresh, clean, and fruity; or takes care of your skin, given how the weather normally is this time of year, as well. 

Makeup

Almay Intense i-Color Smokey-i Kit
  I had the Shimmer-i Kit for blue eyes too, but I really like the color in this palette. I chose the one for green eyes this time. (I clearly don't know my eye color) Now, I don't really think the palettes really bring out your eye color, which they may for some people, but I just like the colors. This one is a nice dark purple, grey, and light pink. Pretty for spring!

Covergirl LipPerfection Jumbo Gloss Balm
  This stuff really is perfection. It gives great color, shine and leaves your lips feeling hydrated...like lip balm! I currently only have one color, Coral Twist. Great color for spring and summer and definitely plan on investing in more.

The Colossal Cat Eyes Mascara
  This is by Maybelline. To be honest, I definitely bought this because of the name. And I love it. Enough said.

Body

Essie Nail Polish - Watermelon
  I love Essie polish and I got this one for my birthday this year. I love the color, once again, great for this time of year.

EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream
  This stuff is amazing. It's like the EOS lip balm, just on your legs and it smells amazing. I have the Lavender Jasmine one. GET IT.

Australian Gold Continuous Spray with Bronzer
  This is my go-to for sun screen. The smell is. Just makes me think of summer every time. And a plus is that it has instant bronzer! You automatically get a glow as soon as you spray it on. It also comes in higher SPFs, as well as, the lower ones used for "deep tanning".

Hair

Herbal Essences Naked Shampoo and Conditioner
  Besides smelling like a juicy, fruity candy, this shampoo and conditioner is a great "slightly natural" moisturizer for your dry, salt water drenched hair.

L'Oreal BOOST IT Volume Inject Mousse
  I've been searching for a good mousse that didn't leave my hair feeling dry after I used it or look like it needs to be washed after a day. This one is a new favorite. It even gives my dull flat hair a lot more volume!

  
  All of these items I bought at my local Target. I'm sure you can get all or most of them at Walmart or Drugstores too! If you've tried any of these or have any more questions about them, just let me know!
