Beauty Favorites: April 2017 || Southeast by Midwest #beauty #bbloggers #favorites

I mentioned in Monday’s post that I was planning on putting up the April Beauty Favorites but that I felt that post was to important. That’s why the April Beauty Favorites are a bit late, however, better late than never is the saying so that’s what we’re going with…

April Beauty Favorites: Super Booster

The Paula’s Choice Resist C15 Super Booster is the first item in my April Favorites. The Super Booster is a liquid product that is designed to be dropped into your serum, moisturizer, or to be used alone. When I repurchased my Paula’s Choice serum I saw this as a possible bundle item with it on Nordstrom so I decided to pick up the bundle and I’m glad that I did! This Super Booster has done amazing things for my skin.

April Beauty Favorites: Facial Spray

The Mario Badescu Facial Spray with Aloe, Herbs and Rosewater is the second item in my April Favorites. The Facial Spray is a product that can be used as a setting spray, a toner, a refresher, etc. I first saw it on SnapChat when a few of the people I follow were using it before and after their makeup tutorials. When I needed to get a new toner I went ahead and tried this and I am glad that I did. It has a nice refreshing feel and while it does have a rose scent that goes away as the product is absorbed into the skin. I haven’t used it as a setting spray yet so look for a full review of it once I do.

April Beauty Favorites: Lip Scrub

The Jeffree Star Velour Lip Scrub in Root Beer is the third item in my April Favorites. The Lip Scrub is designed to exfoliate the lips and can either be wiped off…or licked off. This is actually one of my favorite lip scrubs at the moment because a little goes a long way, it gets the lips good and exfoliated, and it’s really cost effective. I plan on picking up other flavors down the line to compare to this one.

April Beauty Favorites: Skin Care

The Zapzyt Acne Treatment Gel is the fourth item in my April favorites. The Acne Treatment Gel is designed to be applied to the face at the start of a pimple or zit to help shorten the lifespan of the said pimple or zit. I received this for a sponsored post a few weeks back, read the review here, but it’s inclusion here is not sponsored or requested. After using the product anytime I felt a pimple coming through and it being gone within HOURS without having to pick etc. made me include. I will for sure be repurchasing this with my own money when I run out!

April Beauty Favorites: Highlighter

Beauty Favorites: April 2017 Highlighter || Southeast by Midwest #beauty #bbloggers #favorites

Last but not least, the Smashbox x Casey Holmes Spotlight Palette in Pearl is the final item in my April Favorites. Obviously this product is designed to be a highlighter but the cool thing about it is that it was designed by YouTuber Casey Holmes with Smashbox. As a big fan of hers I HAD to pick it up, and I’m glad that I did. The highlighters in this palette are super smooth, buttery, and pigmented. Best of all, they go on and give you a glow / highlight but it’s not so overpowering that your going to blind someone.
