Beauty Favorites of 2012

Beauty Favorites of 2012! 
I thought I would share my favorites from the past year!


1. Face product
My favorite face product has to be my Revlon Colorstay whipped cream foundation. I think I have honestly bought 3 bottle of this just in the past couple of months since it has been out.


2. Cheek product
Cheek product has to be the Hot Mama blush by The Balm. I love this one. I think my mom really likes it too. She got a mini sample of it in her last Birchbox.
These are the limited edition colors that I got earlier this year.
3. Eye product
Out of the eye products that I bought this year I think the Maybelline Color Tattoo's are great!!!! I actually just got two more today. (The Metal line: Barely Branded and Inked in Pink) I already have Barely beige and Gold Shimmer.

4. Lip Product
Hmmmmmm...... My favorite lip product is oddly enough a chap stick that I got in the month of December. It is the Chap Stick Limited Edition Candy Cane. I literally have like 5 of these. I had to buy three more to stash away in case it is never released again. Seriously, I have a thing for minty chap sticks and I adore the original Burt's Bee's but this stuff BLOWS that out of the water for like half the price. And it really does taste like a candy cane. So if your at Walmart checking out and see the little display that is hung by the register I definitely suggest trying this out.



5. Skincare Product
This was the year of Lush discovery. I am in LOVE with the Ocean Salt scrub. I know it is probably not meant to be used every day or even every other day because it is a pretty heavy duty scrub but, my skin loves this stuff. I ran out and finally got more this week. And the really nice guy from Perimeter Mall convinced me to get the large container of it. I never want to run out again. Other than my favorite cleanser Purity by Philosophy (which I have used for years or it would be included) it is an all time favorite.



6. Nail Polish
Camera by Essie is my favorite for 2012. I searched EVERYWHERE for this polish. It was apart of the "lights, camera, action" set. I was so sad when I could not find it. Months later, I was in ulta and looked at a bottom shelf and there were like 20 of them just chilling out on the shelf. I kind of jumped up and down a little.


7. Hair product
 My favorite hair product is the Not Your Mothers Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt spray. My hair is pretty straight. I have to really try to get it to do anything. I love braiding my hair and then spraying this on my wavy hair to give it some texture.



8. Body product/Perfume
My favorite body product is my Coco Mademoiselle Body Lotion. I actually think that the scent stays around longer than it would with the perfume. I love the way it smells. I would like the perfume though. The bottle is really classic and I just love the way it smells so you can never have enough. 

If you have any great products you discovered in 2012 I would love to have some new products to try in 2013! Also if any of these are your favorites too please let me know!!!

    1. Just so you know the polish will come out a little more orange on your nails! I still love the color though! Let me know if you try anything. I would love to hear what you think!

  2. I love the Lush Ocean Salt Scrub, and I'm probably using it way to often than I should.

  3. Those are some awesome favorites! I heard lots of good things about the color tattoos.
    I still need to get my hands on the balm products somehow!

    1. Definitely grab one of them! I really like them. Keep an eye out on Hautelook because they occasionally have The Balm products.
