June favourites

Hello, long time no see ~

sorry I didn't post for so long, it is because I am working now (this is my first job :]), and also it is Ramadan so I have no power to do anything since I am fasting, but here is the overdue post of June monthly favourites 





  •  Jergens Smoothing Aloe Skin Comforting Moisturizer: this moisturiser is amazing, it really hydrates the skin and leave it looking smooth for a long time, it gives the skin a healthy glow which I love because my skin is so dry (I should drink more water). what I love the most about this moisturiser is that it is not sticky and the skin absorb it really fast, so you don't have to worry about your clothes getting dirty. in addition to that, this moisturiser have Aloe and Cucumber in it, wich cools the skin and reduce irritation, which I adore because dry skin = itchy skin >.<

  • WATER FIX hair lotion: hair lotion ? interesting huh.. I got this because I ran out of my frizz-control hair spray, since my hair is curly and dry, I can't go out of the house without putting something on it, or I'll look like a lion, which is not attractive at all. for only 700 files ($1.86) this things will give you smooth healthy looking hair without frizz, because it not only control frizz but it hydrates your hair, and it helps in getting rid of tangles. this is the best thing I've ever used in my hair 

you can tell which one I love the most right ?

  • LOOK lip color: I bought these when I was in KSA, they had so many colours on display I didn't know which one to choose, so I got 4 of them. what I like about this product is that it is a lip crayon, which is really convenient because you don't have to worry about it melting, or be careful when you get it out because it might break. the texture is creamy and it doesn't dry your lips, it doesn't smudge easily and you can layer other lip product over it without getting their applicator dirty.
sorry for the blurry picture

  • L'CHEAR Budding Pink-Heart 8-color painting eye shadow: this is what I bought when I went pet fish shopping. lol. but it was worth it, because this is the best eyeshadow palette I've ever got. the quality is perfect and it only costed me 1 BHD ($2.65). the eyeshadows are very pigmented and they are not chalky, and they don't crease, also the staying power is really impressive, they stayed for the whole day even thought I rub my eyes a lot.
but unfortunately, it fell down and break.
  • essence stay natural concealer: essence is an affordable brand with good quality makeup, but unfortunately in Bahrain you can't find it easily. good for me they sell it near my dad's workplace so he can pick up what I want on his way back from work :) for a long time, I used BB cream in place of concealer, the result were good but not perfect, and recently my dark circles became worse and I got an acne scare on my chin which I hate, and BB cream wasn't working for me anymore. so when I saw the essence makeup stand in Red tag I immediately checked the concealers they have, and I got number 03 SOFT NUDE, which matches my skintone and brightens my face, I even use this as a highlighter because it looks natural but gives your face a beautiful glow, it doesn't crease and it is very long lasting, it stayed on my face for 2 days (I was too lazy to wash my face) and it still looked nice.

  • L'CHEAR Shiny Lip Gloss: recently I've been loving lip glosses, and when I've seen these in the market I got them immediately, not to mention that it costed me 500 files ($1.33) for both. they don't smell yummy, but they are still good, these are very pigmented and creamy, and even though they don't moisturizer the lips, they don't dry it which is very good, because lip gloss normally makes your lips very dry. these will fade when you eat and drink but the good thing is that they stain your lips a little so if they fade you won't have pale lips, but there will still be a hint of colour on them which is perfect because I never re-apply my makeup (laziness).
number 3, number 2
here are the swatches, the lower is how it is applied normally, while the upper ones are when you smudge them and blot them with tissue paper.

So these were the products I loved in June, and hopefully I'll be able to keep doing monthly favourites.
See you :)
