Favourites Of The Month (Part One [August 2013])

Welcome back!


I decided I would give the monthly favourites another go! I'll be using the same list as last time and I will be splitting this segment into two parts again.. 


Here's the first half of the list:



  • Song
  • TV Show
  • Food or Snack
  • Makeup
  • Perfume
  • Face and Body
  • Hair Products
  • Nail Polish
  • Shoes

Let's get to it!


Song

I have had a song stuck in my head since I first came across it and I'm pretty obsessed with it! That song is Every Storm (Runs Out Of Rain) by Gary Allan.. I must have listened to this song a million times and it never gets old and I end up loving it more than before!

I've also been listening to the newest Five Finger Death Punch album that came out around the end of last month (I was late getting it) 







TV Show

Netflix is pretty much my BFF (no joke) I watch something from there about everyday.. Around the beginning of the month my hubby and I decided to watch through the entire American Dad series (well seasons 1-8 anyway) and I have to say I didn't care for the show when it first came out, but after giving it a chance and watching a few episodes I really like it. It seemed like a logical choice since we finished watching all the episodes of Family Guy that Netflix has ha ha....




Food or Snack  

I don't think I've had a favourite food or snack this month.. I have been craving pizza quite a bit though.. (random I know) Recently a new pizza place has opened up near my house and they have some pretty tasty pizza for a really good price! We got a medium double peperoni pizza for $7! Now I really want some pizza LOL but I don't think I can classify pizza as my food favourite of the month, because I have always loved pizza.. 


Makeup
  
My makeup routine has been about the same this summer.. Neutral colours or just light makeup.. I have however been reaching for (and loving) a couple things frequently this month.. First up is my pouty pop crayon from Pop Beauty. I can't rave enough about it! I LOVE the coral colour and I love how versatile it is! I have been wearing it almost everyday since I received it in my July Glam Bag and I REALLY want to get the other colours Pop Beauty has to offer! Next is Maybelline's The Rocket mascara, I know a lot of people are raving about this product and I'm right there with them! I normally layer up my mascara with different kinds, but this bad boy can be worn all alone! I love the volume and length I get out of this mascara and I love the fact that it doesn't clump or flake off! I got the waterproof version by mistake, but I'm liking it fairly well. Another favourite from a Glam Bag has been my Cailyn Gel Liner in Iron, I love how well this liner stays put through out the day and I like that I can turn to this if I want to wear dark liner but I'm not in the mood to wear black liner.. Last up is a foundation. I've been using Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse Foundation. This is the first foundation that I ever used, and I wound up forgetting about it until last winter when on a whim I repurchased it. The only downside is this formula doesn't have SPF, so I have to wear some kind of sunscreen underneath. It gives great coverage, lasts all day and it doesn't turn my face completely orange





Perfume/Face and Body

I think I'm a little overly excited for Fall to get here; so I've been wearing my Warm Vanilla Sugar body spray A LOT this month! (Summer is fun, but Fall and Winter are where it's at! ha ha ha) As for face/body I haven't really been using anything different from last month EXCEPT for my facial scrub! I got the Michael Todd Charcoal Scrub in my August Glam Bag and I'm loving it! My hubby even said my skin is looking nicer and that's really saying something! I think I'll be buying a full set of their skin care items soon!






Hair Products



A big favourite was also last months favourite and that was my Organix Coconut Milk Hair Serum. I am so obsessed with this stuff! I love how silky soft and smooth it makes my hair and I can see a difference it has made already! My other hair product is the Weather Proof Anti Humidity Spray from Big Sexy Hair, I was so skeptical of this product at first, but now it's one of my favourites and a must have for people with a frizz problem! I'm impressed with how much product you get in the sample size and it smells really nice!






Nail Polish



I have four favourites this time around. First is a combination of polishes that I love to wear together! I like to wear Pure Ice Polish in Home Run and I pair it with ELF's chunky gold glitter polish in Gold Star, it looks so pretty together and I've gotten compliments on it! Next is a neon yellow polish by N.Y.C in the colour Lexington Yellow, (which was my hubby's idea to pick up) I thought it was a perfect Summer colour and it was the last colour I was wearing. (I also got compliments on that one) Last is a new polish that I just got earlier this week (I know not really long enough to be a favourite right?? WRONG!) I am in LOVE with this colour! It is a Revlon Top Speed polish in the colour Lily and OMG it's a GORGEOUS lilac/lavender colour (which is one of my favourite colours) I'm wearing it right now and I am going to wear the heck out of this polish! Besides the bright vibrant colour, it dries fast, glides on, is very opaque and I am so in love with it!









Shoes



I haven't been wearing anything too different this month, I wore some nude flats a couple times and my sparkly black flats once but mainly I've been wearing my Chucks and flip flops (I'm kind of a creature of habit...)



Glitter Flats are from Payless and Nude Flats are from Charlotte Russe.




That's all!

Come back tomorrow for part 2!
What are your favourites this month??
