As summer comes to a close, here's what I've been feeling lately:

1. Benefit Porefessional is my holy grail primer that I can't go a day with out. My pores are pretty visible and my skin tone is rather uneven, but this primer is a quick fix that balances and smooths everything out. I pair it with Urban Decay's Setting Spray and I'm locked and loaded and ready to face the day.

2. This moisturizer by Garnier has quickly become my favorite moisturizer. I love the smell, the texture, and most of all, the fact that it's a moisturizer AND a wrinkle-reducer. Since it's vital to start anti-wrinkle treatments in your 20s, this moisturizer is a great way to do just that and hydrate your skin at the same time. I apply it to my face, neck, and the backs of my hands.

3. L'Oreal's True Match foundation is one that I always come back to. Love this stuff. Definitely a buildable formula that doesn't feel too heavy on the face.



4. The whole crayon concealer thing had me intrigued right away. I loved how thick and creamy this concealer is...only drawback is unless you set the product really well after applying, it WILL crease under the eye. So ladies, go to town with this concealer but make sure you set it with a translucent powder, or another powder of your choice.

5. Can't say enough good things about Real Techniques brushes. I simply cannot live without their Expert Face Brush, which I use to apply and blend my foundation and concealer.

6. The Milani EasyBrow pencil is new to my collection. I've desperately been searching for a good drugstore brand eyebrow pencil/shadow and this one has pretty much done the trick for me. I don't know if I'd call it a holy grail product, but I do love it. It goes on smooth, is easy to blend, and I love having the wand at the end.

7. This Revlon lipstick is my go-to shade and is always in my purse. I'm a huge fan of nude lip colors, and this one is rich, creamy, and the perfect shade of nude in my opinion. Love, love, love.

8. The new Rocket mascara by Maybelline is currently my favorite mascara I own. It gives my lashes the perfect mix of volume and length and doesn't clump up like crazy. It looks great on its own or paired with other combinations of mascaras. You can get this product in waterproof or regular formula.

9. Ugh, Real Techniques, how did I manage before you?! The Powder Brush is constantly at my side. I don't leave my house without it. It's super soft, thick, and doesn't shed. Again, another amazing tool from Real Techniques.

What did you love this month? Have you tried any of these products before? Let me know!
