October Favorites!

I seriously can not believe that it is November! Yikes! This year has flown by.
Here are some of my favorite products for the month of October:

Esos Lip Balm in Lemon Drop:

This lip balm has adorable packaging and a really nice feel. It's light and doesn't feel waxy on. I like it as a base underneath lipstick, because it doesn't slip around like other lip balms do.

The Balm: Mary-Lou Manizer

I got this in my October Birchbox and I completely love it. There's really high pigmentation and it's very luminous!

E.L.F Multi-Shade Eyeshadow Compact with Wheat, Driftwood, Ivory and Golden Glow

The pigmentation on these eyeshadows are pretty good, but they are  powdery and don't last particularly long in the pan. There is one particular shade (You can probably guess which!) that I use pretty much everyday, and it's already almost running out. Luckily, the pans only cost $1, so they're easy and inexpensive to replace! I really wish that there were some matte shades, though. Sometimes the shimmer gets to be a little much.

I know it's time that I spent some money on nicer products, so if anyone knows of some 'better' versions of these colors, perhaps that are matte, let me know!

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey

I love this so much! The pigment is strong and and Honey is a subtle shade that doesn't look super obvious. It's one of those "your lips but better" products. And the stain really works! Long after the shiny balm finish disappears, the color remains.

Covergirl Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers in Cranberry Splash

The Wetslicks Fruit Spritzers are some of my favorite products ever. They are great glosses that taste great and aren't remotely sticky!

The Cranberry Splash version is one of the best I've ever used. It's a dark berry red and considering it's a lip gloss, it's pretty pigmented! I think it smells more like chocolate than cranberry, but that's a bonus if you ask me!
