favorite things: beauty edition

Lately, I begun to muse over how much of a creature-of-habit I am. Seriously, I'm one of those people who will buy the exact same thing over and over again if I like it and not really differ from it unless it becomes discontinued. (thankfully this hasn't happened that often) Last week, I started stocking up on some of my summer beauty essentials. These products don't go a day without use in my house...and they are worth every penny.

~Bare Minerals Foundation by Bare Escentuals: I have the driest skin ever...except for my chin area which seems to produce more oil than Saudi Arabia. Anywho, this stuff rocks because it works with both of my skin needs and it lasts a LONG time.

~Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Lotion: Built in SPF 28 (which is perfect for me) and it's not too heavy for the summertime.



~Avon Glazewear Shine Lipgloss: Not too sticky and just enough pigment for summer. Plus, it's usually only $5.99!!

~Garnier Fructis Style Curl Scrunch Gel: Perfect for when I want to scrunch my hair and wear it wavy. It's not too heavy and it smells great!



~ChapStick Ultra SPF 30: Sunburned lips are no joke. Literally, try laughing at something funny when your lips are chapped. PAIN!
