November Favourites

No- Crack Hand Cream - My roommate found this one! she was googling for a thick hand cream and came across Dumont Company No-Crack  hand creams. Under locate a store, Restoration Hardware came up as a carrier. The tubs she found at Restoration is nicely designed and looks more expensive than the regular Dumont ones. Sadly we heard that Restorations version is going to be discontinued. We stumbled upon this a bit too late. So if you would like to try this~gotta hurry and find it because they are flying off shelves. You can always still find the Dumont versions on other site tho. Shipping just cost a bit, because the product are heavy.

I like this hand cream lots! I feel that it actually penetrates into my dry hands and moisturizes them from the inside. The cream sinks into the skin fairly quickly and does not leave a greasy film behind. When I handle wet objects after I put on this lotion, it doesn't appear to be as slippery as other creams. My roommate likes it a lot as well. I thinks she even likes it a bit better than me :) On another note~ although I feel that this cream penetrates and sinks into the skin very well, sometimes I feel like I need a little more to hydrate the surface skin area. My room-mate however, doesn't feel this way. It's been hydrating her hands nicely. Anyhow, I would definitely recommend this hand cream! The dryness and tough cracked skins around my nails are healing nicely. I've really been ignoring my body shop almond cream I had in a favorites before too. I just bought 2 more 16 oz tubs! Sweet orange and Lemongrass are the ones we like :) Fresh scent is also nice. Thank You roomy for finding this!

BBW Vanilla Bean Noel - I've been loving this sweet sweet vanilla scent. Although is super sweet in the tube, once it's on the skin it's fades into a lovely soft vanilla bean scent. I've been getting tons of compliments when I have this on. The body splash in this scent is the second body splash from BBW I've ever owned. Honestly I don't think they do much. It doesn't last at all if I spray it on my skin, but I discovered that spraying it into the hair will make it last a long time. The body cream's scent will last almost the whole day on me. anyways~ love the scent! I also still love Twisted Peppermint and my Hemp moisturizers too!

Dior Glow - I've been loving this! I've neglected it for so long~ it's a nice natural pink color on the lips. I been wearing to to work quite a bit. It hydrates, it has a tint of color, it's pretty packaging. love! also, sometimes I wear Revlon's lip butter in Sugar Frosting, which is a sheer pearly pink over it.

Josie Maran Holiday Glow Argan Illuminizer & Argan Color Stick Duo - I picked this up last month. I love that they are both minis. They both have a natural+ mintyish scent to them that I enjoy. The illuminizer is a nice golden liquid. It blends out to a nice golden sheen. The color stick in Petal also blends out nicely. It gives a pinkish natural flush.  

Dolly Wink Eye Shadows 01 - On days I'm not using my Naked Palette, I've been reaching for this~ It doesn't even look like it used much of it, but I've been using it on and off since sometime in August~ It's another natural palette I own, but these 4 colors could still create a few good looks. The colors blend out smoothly and are nicely pigmented :) 

Tarte Amazonian Blush Exposed - I haven't been using a lot of blush for the past few months. When I did reach for a blush tho, it would be this one~ I call it my nude blush. It gives me the most natural flush. It doesn't last all day, but it last long enough. This past month I've started to use blushes again. I haven't had the urge to reach for another blush at all~

Organix Moroccan Argan Oil

I finished this up in the beginning of last month. I decided to try Organix Moroccan Argan Oil, because I ended up liking my Organix Cherry Blossom Ginseng. I remember my scalp feeling clean and my hair soft and airy~ it was nice :) This Moroccan one however is totally disappointing. Having Moroccan Oil in it, I was hoping my hair would feel nourished, soft, and silky. It made my hair extremely dry! The conditioner didn't seem to do anything for my hair either :( I used it up, because I didn't want to throw it out. I just had to used more leave in treatments and masked my hair more often. Now I'm using Shiseido Tsubaki. My hair is feeling so much better already :)

Essie Luxeffects Shine of the times - Where have I been? I just saw this~ I'm pretty sure other brands might have something similar too~ but I think I might have to run out and get this! it's sooo pretty~ plus I've been good and haven't bought any nail polishes for months!(I think hahaa~) no I'm pretty sure it's been months!

Pedi-Scrub Foot Buffer

I saw this at Ulta and decided to try it out~ I have dry and a bit cracked heels. Moisturizing and scrubbing with a pumice stone just isn't enough to heal it. So I just wanted to try it out, Honestly I really didn't have high hopes for it. That's why I'm not that disappointed, because for me it doesn't help get rid of my thick dry heels. But if you feet are in good condition, unlike mine. I think this could actually be a nice foot exfoliator. It can take off mild dry skin just fine. I use it to scrub the top of my feet and around my ankles too~ Those are the areas that feels so soft and smooth afterwards :)

This foot buffer is a sponge that is already packed with moisturizing soap. The bubbles from this are thick and luscious. I used it in my shower stall and I had to make sure I hold on to something so I won't slip and fall. So rinse off your foot well before you switch it to the other.
