This month, the list is small. Tiny, in fact.
Here's the run-down:
Mariah Carey's Lollipop Bling in Ribbon - I bought the tiny 1 fluid ounce (30 ml) bottle. This is one of the three perfumes Mariah has released recently, which are all suppose to smell like Mariah's favorite candy treats. My pick of the litter is 'Ribbon', which is meant to smell like a blue ring pop - and it does! The scent is sweet and sugary, but not too overpoweringly sweet. In fact, I usually do 5 to 6 spritzes on my neck to make the scent last all day. If I wear this perfume every day, the bottle will be gone by the end of November.
Dove Ultimate GoFresh Anti-Perspirant in Revive - I do like this product, but I hate the name. I know that the whole GoFresh line is suppose to be linked to aromatherapy - in that certain smells are suppose to trigger good moods and positive feelings. But, I don't like having to squint to read the 5 point font to figure out that 'Revive' is actually scented like Pomegranate and Lemon Verbena. The anti-perspirant has a light, floral-fruit scent, and it doesn't overpower any other perfume or scent that I wear - even when I sweat.
Clinique Almost Makeup with SPF 15 in Shade 01 Fair - This is my favorite foundation. It gives light coverage and makes my skin look immaculate. End of story.
Clinique Blended Face Powder in Invisible Blend - I use this to set my foundation. I have never had any problems - no itchiness, and it doesn't cake on my face. If you order it from Sears, it comes with a useless powder brush. This is what I consider to be my 'old faithful' of powders.
NARS Blush in Nico - This is one of those blushes that lives in the 'Blush' section of the NARS website and Sephora, but it is actually more of a highlighter. It is nowhere near as shimmery as Albatross, but does have some shimmery glitter bits (finely milled, not chunks!). I use it as a blush when I want to put on makeup but don't want to look like I am wearing any. I also use it as an under-eye powder to help minimize the appearance of dark circles.
NARS Eyeshadow Duo in All About Eve - I wear this duo every day. The shades are very light, pink-beige colors. I use one as an all over lid color, and the other as a brow bone-inner corner highlight. Love it!
NARS Multiple in South Beach - One of my favorite Multiples. This shade is a very light taupe with an apricot/peach undertone. This is not a matte Multiple - it has shimmers. I use it mostly as a cream blush, but also use it as an eyeshadow primer sometimes.
