This past month, I was selected to be a judge as part of the LifeStyle Collective’s Summer Beauty Awards and the winners are finally in! It was really fun testing out lots of beauty products and although all the judges’ scores were compiled for the final awards, below are my favorite products.
This Josie Maran whipped argan oil body butter is by far, the best lotion I have ever used in my life! It’s sooo smooth and it smells heavenly. I don’t ever think I can use another lotion in my life. Take my recommendation and try it for yourself! My second favorite beauty product is Benefit’s They’re Real Mascara. The black mascara is very bold and doesn’t clump your lashes together. I also really love the bluecolor if you yourself are feeling a bit bold 😉Surprisingly, my third favorite item is this Medi-Matte Perfected Oil Control Tinted Moisturizer. I really don’t like wearing foundation at all and I basically don’t wear much makeup up in the summer or in general in all, but this tinted moisturizer was refreshingly nice. It really hydrated my skin and at the same time made me a little tanner while not feeling heavy on my face at all. The medium color and the SPF 20 sure make this a sun-free friendly product.Last, but not least, in my top four list is this Unwash hydrating hair masque. It’s a great mask to repair summer damaged hair within minutes. I use this about once a week to give my hair an extra boost of softness.

Today I’m sharing two of my favorite winter ear accessories. This earcuff is really a set of earrings, but by itself it’s also perfect. I haven’t honestly worn any earrings in my cartilage since I got the piercing when I was eighteen and don’t even get me started on how much it hurt to get, but I’m glad that I have it now. I guess some decisions I made when I was that young turned out to be okay. My other favorite ear accessory are these amazing 14K gold pyramid studs. They are already on heavy rotation.
Aside my ear accessories, my favorite makeup product is this amazing blue mascara! I’m obsessed. I highly recommend wearing color mascara because it makes your eyes pop without wearing a lot of makeup. I’m a minimalist when it comes to makeup, but I never leave my apartment without mascara. Be bold, try some color mascara and start seeing stars!
A budget-friendly bright idea is using a cosmetic clutch as a regular clutch. You know how when you buy two or three products and you get a really cute pouch with more products, well they can serve more than one purpose. First of all, they’re usually super cute just like this Benefit light bulb one,they’re usually just the right size for date night and they’re free; enough said. On that note, let’s raise our glasses to the weekend – enjoy 😉Halogen: Dress (option)// Marc Jacobs: Shoes (fun option) & Bangle (option) // Ray-Ban: Eyewear // Benefit: Clutch (break the bank)
