I'm somewhat of a makeup & hair product junkie. What's ironic about this is that I don't even wear makeup on a daily basis. In fact, my kids ask if I'm going to a meeting if I dry my hair and put on makeup right after a shower!
I am quick to try a new product on the recommendation of friends and
I have tried two subscription boxes, Birchbox and Ipsy. I prefer Ipsy because I receive at least one full-sized product a month and more brands I am familiar with. I love when that little pink envelope shows up in my mailbox!
I thought it would be fun to show you my favorites every month if I can keep it up!
1//Carol's Daughter Cupuaca Smoothing Shampoo. I tried this on the recommendation of my friend Tammi. I love the idea of a sulfate free shampoo, but also like one that will lather a little bit. This one is perfect and smells great, too! I actually lucked up and found it at TJ Maxx for $7.99. I never would have recognized the brand or even picked it up because the bottle is on the small side. I don't wash my hair daily, so I don't mind spending a little more on shampoo!
2// Bare Essentials Marvelous Moxie lip gloss in Maverick. Also a Tammi favorite! I love this for daily errands and have worn it over lipstick for a night out. I am huge on how a lip gloss smells and this one is minty {not sugary sweet} to me.
3// Blow Dry Clips Not sure how I missed that these were a "thing," but I love them! Another TJ Maxx find...I got 4 for $3.99!
4// Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara This was an ipsy box hit! My usual go-to's for mascara are Benefit They're Real or Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes. This one requires several applications to compare to my other favorites, but is great for everyday!
5// Too Faced Hangover Face Primer Another ipsy find...I have tried face primers before, but love this one because it goes on more like moisturizer. It's light and smells fantastic!
