My Most Loved Beauty Products in October

When looking at my beauty products and makeup, I realized that there have been a couple products that have stood out to me this month and that I used basically everyday.  I narrowed it down to ten beauty products that I used throughout the month of October.  I hope this is helpful to those in need of ideas for good products to purchase, or is just an interesting read!

#1

I found this Caress Glowing Touch body wash at Walmart.  I needed a new body wash and what attracted me to this one was that the actual product has shimmer particles to it.  It also is made to silken the skin and help moisturize it, which is great to have in a body wash especially during fall and winter.  It smells like a DREAM and it really does keep my skin smooth and moisturized.  I haven't gone a day without using this body wash and I will continue to repurchase.  I definitely recommend this to anyone that likes to smell amazing and have soft skin at the same time.  And it's cheap!

#2

This product is not so cheap but definitely amazing.  I bought the Laura Mercier Silk Creme Foundation from Sephora to wear on my wedding day.  It is a full coverage foundation that is non-comenogenic and is definitely not cakey.  I have very oily, acne-prone skin and at first I was not so sure about this foundation because it says "Luminous coverage" and "silk creme" which usually means that it will just make me look more oily.  However, this foundation has the most beautiful finish and does not make me oily with just a bit of powder on top of it.  It is the perfect foundation for fall and winter because it has more coverage and it is good for when skin becomes a bit more dry.  And it photographs beautifully!

#3

This has been my favorite hair product BY FAR for the month of October.  The It's A 10 Miracle Leave-In Plus Keratin has helped my hair so much.  Not only does it make my hair feel so strong and healthy, but it is a heat protectant and smoother.  My hair has been through a lot this past month because I went drastically blonder, and this product has made that transition so much easier for myself and my hair.  I spray this on my damp hair after it has been towel dried and right before I blow-dry it.  A little goes a very long way and I will continue to use It's A 10 until I find something better... Which is very unlikely!

#4

This Sleek eyeshadow palette in Storm has been my go to palette for the past couple months.  I can create the best eye looks for fall with this palette from matte to shimmer, from a more natural eye to a dark smokey eye.  This palette is perfect! I got this in England, but Sleek Cosmetics has a website and they ship everywhere! They also make a bunch of different kinds of palettes but this one is for sure my fav for the fall and winter time.  Not only are the colors in this palette to die for but the pigmentation is amazing and all these shadows are super silky and easy to blend.  Go Sleek for making such good affordable palettes!

#5

NYX makes some great blushes, but this one in Mocha has been my favorite in October.  Since I've been doing more smokey eye looks, and wearing deeper lip colors, this blush has gone beautifully with more dramatic makeup.  It is hard to see exactly the color of this blush, but it is a reddish nude blush with just the slightest hint of shimmer.  I have worn this blush almost everyday this month and have been loving how buttery it is and how easy it is to blend out on the skin.  It goes with every look I have created and that's why I'm obsessed with it!  I found this blush at Target but NYX is sold pretty much everywhere. 

#6

It can be hard for me to find a lipstick that doesn't dry out my lips, but the Revlon Super Lustrous Lipsticks are some of my favorites.  The shade in Plum Velour has been particularly my favorite this past month for many reasons.  I have been obsessed with wearing darker lipsticks for fall, but I've worn this one by far the most.  The formulation of this lipstick is very shiny and more sheer than it looks in the tube.  Also, the color of this particular shade is amazing on every skin tone and is the perfect color to amp up a fall and winter makeup look.  I got this at Walmart but Revlon is sold in all drugstores. 

#7

I use this everyday without fail.  This is the MAC eyeshadow in Soft Brown and it is my favorite eyeshadow of all time.  I had to add it into this October favorites because I need to share with the world how great this eyeshadow is.  It is a matte eyeshadow used primarily in the crease or brow bone as a transition shade from the lid color to the eyebrow highlight color.  No matter what eyeshadow look I'm doing, I always use this eyeshadow in the crease of my eye to add dimension.  It is the perfect warm, light brown shade that is just perfect!

#8

Another Mac product!  This eyeliner in Teddy is gorgeous on all eye shades.  I use this in my water line for smokey eyes or to add a little something to make my eyes pop.  I have green eyes and this really warm dark brown color makes my eyes look even greener!  It has the prettiest gold shimmer and I will definitely continue to use this throughout fall and winter!  Mac is sold at Mac Stores (duh), Nordstrom, and other department stores.

#9

For those people will skin on your face, use this!  I am always using this facial moisturizer, but I was especially grateful for it during October.  This is non-comenogenic (it won't break me out) and it is the perfect mix between moisturizing and lightweight.  My dermatologist recommended it me years ago, and I've been using it ever since.  No matter how oily my skin is, I still need to use a moisturizer and this one is magic for my skin.  Truly truly an amazing product.

#10

I had to add this makeup brush into the mix because it has changed my life.  This Sigma E40 tapered blending eyeshadow brush is a brush that I have learned that I can't live without.  I use this brush to blend out all of the smokey eye looks that I've been wearing all throughout October and it is my favorite eyeshadow brush by far.  I use this with the Mac Soft Brown eyeshadow shown previously almost everyday and it creates such a natural, airbrushed look to the eyes.  Sigma is sold online at sigmabeauty.com and is also sold in a store at the Mall of America.

These are the products that stood out most to me in the month of October!  I'm planning on doing a post like this every month to share what I've been obsessing over!
Thanks for reading :)
