Here are all of my summer favorites, products that I have been using for most of the summer and have been reaching for everyday! Some of these are old products I have fallen in love with again and some are newer products that I can't get enough of.
EYES
Wet N Wild Color Icon Shadow in Crème Brulee- I use this creamy matte color as a brow highlight when I do not want a shimmer brow highlight.
Rimmel Scandaleyes Waterproof Kohl Liner in #005 Nude- Great for waterline, I wear this almost everyday and it really opens up my eyes whether I do a full eye or just mascara
Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette-I love the rose gold tones in this palette and I reach for it all the time. Especially for my "go-to" look, I will use "Limit" on the lid and "Nooner" in the crease and it is simple but very pretty and girly
Cheeks
ELF Studio Blush in Giddy Gold-Great golden highlight or sometimes I wear it as a blush when I am not wearing a full face
ELF Studio Blush in Candid Coral-Beautiful shimmery coral pinky shade and I actually love the shimmer because it gives a highlight and blush at the same time
ELF Pressed Mineral Blush in Cabo Cabana-I can't even describe this shade properly, but you need it! its is like the perfect warm orange blush that I loved for summer but I think would be just as great in the fall
LIPS
ELF Lip Exfoliator-As you can see I have had this for a while and I like that it really does exfoliate because I feel that the sugar scrubs I have are a tad to mild
Revlon Super Lustrous Lipgloss in #215 Super Natural- I absolutely LOVE this gloss, it is creamy, not sticky and super glossy! And the color is amazing I wear it with my nudes and pinks and also alone. I honestly am thinking about picking up a backup
Revlon Colorburst Lip Butter in Juicy Papaya-These are so moisturizing and have great pigment for a lip butter and I love a light orange/coral lip
EOS Balm in Strawberry Sorbet-Great moisturizer and I use it during the day before my other lip products and it really helps when I wear a matte lip or use a lip liner as a full lip color
Skin Care
Jergens Shea Butter Deep Conditioning Moisturizer w/ Pure African Shea Butter- Honestly, I hate putting on lotion unless my legs are showing but I know how important it is for great skin. Early this summer I got a sample of this in a magazine and decided to purchase and it really is amazing, this is my second bottle this summer. It used to take me wayyyyyyy longer to use up a full bottle of lotion.
MaryKay Clearproof Acne Treatment Gel-I do not and have never struggled with acne but I do get small breakouts or pimples here and there and I was getting tired of using Tea Tree Oil so I purchased this and I love it. I use it and the pimple will be gone in a day or two and I can wear it underneath makeup and it does not affect anything. It is a little drying but nothing a regular moisturizer can't handle.
LASHES
Maybelline Great Lash Lots of Lashes in Blackest Black-Love this mascara, it is very black and gives me the length I love and the brush makes it easy to get those inner corner lashes
Revlon Lash Potion by Grow Luscious in Blackest Black-This one is newer probably only had it the past month but I love it and I love that it is waterproof so when I use it on my lower lashes it does not smudge
FACE
MAC Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in Medium Dark-Life changing, looks like nothing is on my face, makes anything I put on look "skin like" and it gives my skin a glow, does not make my skin look dry or super matte because as you know I do not like the matte look on me at all
Josie Maran Argan Illuminizer-Everyday this summer I have been mixing this with my foundations, tinted moisturizers, and bb creams and I love the glow it gives.
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer on #10 Light-Probably my favorite concealer, I love how creamy it is and it is the perfect color when blended properly, it is pretty light but when it blends in with my foundation it gives me the perfect highlight
Maybelline Baby Skin Instant pore Eraser-OMG! Love is not even the word, you need it that is all!
Tools
Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge-As you saw in my most recent Ulta Haul I just bought a second sponge so obviously I love these. They are so soft and I love the flat edge to clean up mascara under my eyes (I am so sloppy with my mascara). It blends everything perfectly, I use it for blending my foundations and my concealer and it soaks up any product if you used too much. **sorry they are dirty lol**

I hear a lot of talk about that Wet n Wild shadow I think I need to pick one up myself! I have a lot of shimmer options for brow highlights and I'm realizing I don't have a good matte one!
