November Favorites 2014

Hello beauties!
So the month of November has finished & the last month of this year has started. The weather around Jeddah was great during November, rainy & cold. I really enjoyed it with alot of Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks & alot of pumpkin candles in my room. I was really expecting December to be colder but Oh-Well! its Jeddah I live in.
I wish you all a very happy winters, holiday season & a very happy new year in advance. I'm looking forward to a new year party I'm organizing on 70s theme with my ladies club members. I hope you all have a splendid December. Below are some of the products I enjoyed beside the candles & lattes.




1. Benefit BB cream Big & Easy:
My readers know that I love Benefits products & always fall for their products. Benefit Bene-Tint is one of my favorites to get that rosy lips & cheeks look.  I got this BB cream in a sample size from Faces in some Instagram picture showing contest. I didn't try it for a very long while & just kept it because the small packaging was too cute to use. But a month or 2 back I ran out of my favorite BB cream & while I was on search of finding new favorite BB I started using it. This BB cream gives you cream to powder finish. It definitely looks flawless & has great coverage.


The small tube was enough for 4 applications (Yes! that tiny tube). Small amount is enough for covering the face & it stays for good 4 hours. I tried it at different times & liked the results but I expect it to stay for a little longer as I don't want to do touchups. Also at the end of the day it makes my skin very oily and I don't use any face powder or setting powder for daily makeup. I'm not planning on purchasing a regular size as I can get other better product but you never know.



2. Ponds Age Miracle Face wash:
This face wash really is a miracle. It exfoliates your skin without leaving it dry or patchy. I have been using other face washes from Ponds but this 1 is top on top. its very gentle yet effective. Cleanses really well without leaving any oil or makeup residue. I have been using it in my PM routine to remove all dirt, oil & makeup. Has helped alot in controlling lines & improving the skin radiance. highly recommended for daily use. Read more here.



3. Ponds Age miracle Night cream:
Its my first ever night cream & hoping it to be the last as its simply great. I had to have a night cream which can help in reducing some fine lines from my forehead & the time I realized, I knew I wanted only this cream. I'm loving it so far it has helped alot with the fine lines & moisturizes my skin really well. I have noticed my complexion has improved alot & it looks more fairer & radiant. Its a night treatment which helps in fighting the ageing signs. Read more here.



4. Ponds Age miracle eye duo cream:
Another miracle product of the month & its also from Ponds. This eye duo cream is amazing. It does wonders for my tired puffy eyes. You can see the difference after first application. It works great for dark circles & reduces my eye puffiness. It has helped alot in stopping the appearance of fine lines around my eyes & has improved the skin texture around them. I apply it 3 to 3 times in a week at night with other ponds cream. I have seen great results & you definitely should give it a try. I like how they have separated 2 creams i.e upper eye gel texture cream & under eye cream in same container. you need a dot sized amount to apply it. Definitely a staple product for my skin care routine. Read more here. 



5. MAC Kelly Yum Yum:
I love nude lips mostly but sometimes its good to change the shade & show your bold side. I'm a fan of fuchsia & magenta shades after nudes & reds. Bright 7 bold colors do look good on me & compliments my skin complexion. I tried the Candy Yum yum which has been a good pink but more of a day color. I saw many beauty gurus swatchin g this lipstick & when I saw this on beautiful Tamana Roshan I had to pick this. It looks so beautiful on my skin & goes well will loads of lashes & doll look. It has cool blue undertones & it works for almost every skin tone. Its more wearable then Candy Yum Yum & gives you a satin finish which lasts 4 to 5 hours. Completely in love with this shade.

6. Narciso Rodriguez:
This is one of my favorites & have been a signature perfume from the time I got it. i tell this to everyone that its a must have for every lady. It smells so classy, soft & musky warm. I love the combination of dried down rose, musk & sandalwood in this fragrance which makes it feminine & add a little warmth. These days the weather calls for such a fragrance. Its not too strong msuky but still very noticeable powdery-musk. it blends in your skin & warms up real quick to give you ever lasting fresh fragrance. I always get compliments wearing it & its not been a single time that someone didnt notice or asked for its name. I still have a good amount left & definitely ill repurchase it before I go out of it.

7. MAC Media:
As the winter starts we opt for more warmer shades & who doesn't like the vampy lips? I love darker lip shades in winters with a little or no eyeliner & mascara. They look really great with my complexion & makes me look more fairer. This lipstick also have a satin finish & I love wearing it for the night time when I'm out for dinner or cafe. Its a perfect berry plummy lip shade that combines purple with burgundy tones which can be worn as a lippie or can be used as a stain. the formula is great & it doesnt dry up or make your lips look chapped. if you are looking for a sexy deep wine shade then you have your answer. one of my favorite shade for this fall.
