October was gone in a blink of an eye. I can't believe this past month full of amazing moments and events is already over. That's life, but I can definitely tell you that I am so grateful I got to meet new people and got to try so many new beauty products (and still getting to play with them so I can let you know what I think of those next month or stay tuned for my stories on Instagram).
I definitely had a blast in the past events from Giorgio Armani where I got to celebrate the launch of the new fragrance Si Passione. I also went to a Lancome event where I got the chance to receive the new Advanced Genifique Serum, which I'll let you know my review on it here. We also got to receive a lipstick from the brand and they ENGRAVED our names on them! That was the coolest part!
I also celebrated along with Maybelline and L'Oreal some amazing events that I will talk about on another blog posts, but you can definitely check out how everything went on my Instagram Highlights.
Without a doubt, October 2018 has been one of my favorite months, I definitely put my makeup abilities to the test and challenged myself to create 5 halloween looks in 5 days straight from the 15th to the 19th of October. THE MOST FUN I've ever had creating makeup/bodypainting looks.
Now I want to let you know which are the top beauty products that stood out for me last month. Hope you enjoy!
MILANI PRIME PERFECTION FACE PRIMER
I originally bought this primer for my future clients and to use for my makeup classes, but I couldn't resist to try it for myself. I definitely love this primer, because it is hydrating and it leaves my pores blurred, ready to put my makeup on. Leaves a glowy finish, which I love. I truly recommend this primer if you're looking to buy one now.
L'OREAL LASH PARADISE PRIMER + MASCARA
Okay, so I only have been trying these for a week, but using these together have been revolutionary. The Lash Paradise Primer leaves my lashes so curled and fluffy, I was truly in shock when I first applied it. Later I apply the Lash Paradise Mascara, which I didn't like at first when it launched, but using it in combination with the primer, I like it a lot more. If you have to choose between the two to try them, I definitely recommend the Lash Paradise primer.
LANCOME ADVANCED GENIFIQUE SERUM
This product. IT IS MAGIC. If you have skin texture problems and you want to achieve the baby soft skin of your dreams, this is the beauty product you need in your life. You need to apply it in the morning before moisturizer and at night, so you can achieve a softer, texture less skin. I have been using it non-stop for three weeks and I can't love it enough. Truly a yearly favorite.
GIORGIO ARMANI SI PASSIONE PERFUME
First of all, this is my first Giorgio Armani fragrance ever. I still can't believe I own a full size version of this fragrance, I just can't. I feel grateful every day for the opportunities I receive to test out incredible and luxurious products such as Giorgio Armani fragrances. This is the new Si Passione fragrance, which Sephora describes the scent as: "This sparkling, fruity floral scent with notes of rose and woody vanilla was created for the woman who is passionate, feminine, and free." I can definitely agree with this! This is the fragrance of my life. A musky, sexy and feminine scent that I cannot resist. A yearly favorite for sure!
COLOURPOP ULTRA MATTE LIP IN ARRIBA! & SOFTII
If you know me, I love Colourpop! I wanted to restock on my red and fall lipsticks, so I bought these two from the IluvSarahii collab. Arriba IS A STUNNING SHADE. It is a bold, bright true red lip that lasts all day. It is perfect to use during an event or a Friday where you want to be stylish and bold. Softii is also a pretty mauve shade perfect for this Holiday season, I love how you can rock it with minimal makeup and boom, the mauve shade of your dreams.
NYX COSMETICS EPIC INK LINER IN BLACK & WHITE LIQUID LINER
For every Halloween look, these two were the key for a successful makeup look during my #ACLHalloweenWeek. These NYX cosmetics liners are incredible, pigmented and very affordable. You need these in your makeup collection.
ANASTASIA BEVERLY HILLS LIP PALETTE VOL. 1
For every Halloween look I did this month, I used this lip palette and it is unbelievable. You can use this tool for anything and the pigmentation of each of these is amazing. I'm not sure if its still available online at Sephora, but if you do get your hands on it, save it for next Halloween!
And that was it guys, my October Beauty favorites! Please let me know if you are thinking of getting any of these as presents for yourselves now on Christmas or if this blog post helped you in any way!
Until the next post!
Kisses and hugs,
Racheliz!
