Hello Friends! Happy Friday and HAPPY DECEMBER! December is finally here which means November had to come to an end, but in the month of November, I've come across many old and new products and things that I love! So here I am, with my second official Monthly Obsessions post!
I don't have too many things to share this month because I've been using a lot of what I already have, but like I mentioned earlier, I've rediscovered a lot of old products that I've already loved and have found a few newer products that I'm fallen in love with. So let's get started!
BEAUTY
Another rediscovered obsession is the NYC Smooth Skin Bronzer in Sunny. This was my first ever bronzer and I bought it because other YouTubers were RAVING about it. I of course am a sucker so I spent the $3 on it and fell in love. Since, I've found other bronzers that I love more, but this bronzer is perfect for the fall/winter months. It's lighter and has just enough orange without making me look like an oompa loompa. It's really worth the $3 price tag and yes, there are other better bronzers out there, but if you're looking for something that won't break the bank, buy this!! It's also a drugstore dupe for Benefit Cosmetics Hoola bronzer and MAC cosmetics Give Me Sun.
BEAUTY
My first obsession for the month of November is Kat Von D's Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in Lolita. I first heard of it when my friend from high school bought it and raved about it. I wasn't keen on the price and passed it up every time I was in Sephora, but as I've become more and more enamored with brown nude lip colors, I knew I had to try it. Even better, Sephora came out with a Lolita/Lolita II mini duo set and it was the same price for the set as it is for one of the full size. Of course I had to buy the set so I could try both. I didn't really like them at first because I wasn't sure if the colors suited me but as I've worked with them more, I've found that Lolita matches me more than Lolita II. The formula is unlike any lipstick that I have but I really like it. You can virtually eat anything and it won't budge, which is what I love because I hate having to reapply lipstick. Also this isn't my photo but it's a great photo so creds to whosever it is lol.
My next obsession is a rediscovery. It is the Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Exposed. I've had this blush for YEARS and I'm pretty sure it was the first high end blush I bought. I used to love it so much but completely forgot about it when I found newer blushes. I recently fell in love with it again when I was looking for a matte, natural blush for the fall/winter times. It's literally so perfect and it's really hard to over do it with this blush. This blush is also a dupe for Nars Doceur and there are also other drugstore dupes for the Tarte blush but I don't think anything can live up to this blush.
The last beauty item in my obsessions is this St. Ives Green Tea Scrub. I've always had trouble with blackheads and this exfoliator has really helped. I noticed the difference after just one use. It also smells really really good. The little exfoliating beads are not as rough as the other St. Ives exfoliators. It's also very affordable so definitely try it if you're looking for a good blackhead clearing face wash.
OTHER THINGS
About mid-November, I ordered a black denim jacket from Forever 21 and it's literally all I've been wearing. It's nice and lightweight. I've been looking for a good black denim jacket for a while and I was thoroughly impressed. Unfortunately, they don't have it online anymore but there are links to similar jackets. (The jacket pictured is from Topshop).
I actually took this photo lol. I bought this necklace from Forever 21 to go with a dress that I was wearing to a tea. There was only one left and OF COURSE they don't have it online. I literally have NOT been able to find it, but like the jacket, there are tons of similar necklaces out there, so here are some links!
My last monthly obsession is soy yogurt! Is that weird....? I first tried it from my school's cafeteria and I was skeptical at first because I love yogurt, but this yogurt changed my life. The brand in the photo is what I eat basically every day and it's called O'Soy, but I think it should be called 'Soygurt'. Anyways... try it out if you love yogurt too. I think it's an acquired taste thing, because my friend hates it but I love it, but give it a try and let me know what you think.
And that is all my obsessions! Sorry it wasn't a lot but like I mentioned in the intro, I didn't find a lot of things this month. What things were you loving for the month of November?? Let me know in the comments or send me a message!
As always, thank you for reading!
Love, Cat <3
