Better late than never..

So I know I've been super behind on my blogging later so I thought I'd get started on some monthly favorites! I've been pretty consecutive with the things I've been using the past couple months that I haven't talked about. So first I'm gonna get into my makeup! In numerical order: (I mixed 3&4 :[ boo)

1. Athens

2.Stockholm

4.Antwerp

NYX Matte Lip Cream- I've been super in love with these. I tried it out at Ulta one night and was hooked. It's basically a matte lipgloss and it comes off super smooth and creamy. I've heard a lot of good things about their butter gloss but haven't really gotten to them..

3. Mac Lip Pencil- Boldly Bare

OBSESSSSEED!! I basically wear this every day. It's a very versatile nude pink that you can wear up or down. Love it so much and I usually put some of the matte lip creams by NYX in Athens over it or the Stila gloss which I'll talk about later.

5. Anastasia's Brow Pomade in Chocolate

I didn't like this product so much at first and was a bit iffy when using it because a little goes a long way (I happen to have a very heavy hand) and I didn't like how easily I could mess up my eyebrows with it. But I finally got the hang of it and every picture of me in the past month my brows were filled with this stuff :> it is a gel to powder type and stays on forever it definitely can make a bold brow. (also to the right of it is just the brow brush thing I use)

6. Stila Lip Glaze in Cupcake

Initially, when I bought it I didn't know it was the twisty type where you twist it a bunch and wait for it to come out. I normally don't like glosses or makeup that's built this way bc I get impatient and twist it 1000 times and end up with too much, but it was on sale and 3 for $15 so what can ya do. BUT I have found I also really like it when I wear it over my Boldly Bare lip liner :D (3.)

MY GO-TO SHOES

I found these babies on Urban on sale for $20 I think and I basically wear them every day. They go with literally everything and once you break them in they're not so bad. It's black velvet with a zipper in the back to add a little spice. I'm obsessed with the cutout and the mini heel. It takes a while to get used to the zipper in the back but if you wear it with pants or leggings it ain't so bad :>

SCHOOL ESSENTIAL

Also from Urban, I bought this last year and never really used for school (usually when I go hiking or staying the night somewhere) up until this year because I have to bring more books to class this semester :-( It has a square/egg shape to it so oddly shaped or bulky items don't really fit right in it. I love cats obvi and I love tapestry cat designs even more. I've been dying for the JC Cat Tapestry Litas for ever but my size is always sold out :(
