Thursday’s Fab Five

Why has this week felt so long, and it’s only Thursday?! I cannot wait for the weekend to be here to relax, catch up on some blogging & grading, and to just simply relax.  There’s always so much going on!

Cannot wait for the next Scandal tonight…last week was out of control & I loved every minute of it!

Anyhoo, check out the top five products I’ve been loving for the past two weeks.  I definitely see some full size purchases in my future!

You have no idea how sad I was when I used up my third sample of this product…I literally made a sad face I was so bummed.  Guess this means I have to drop $46 on the full size because seriously this product is incredible.  This oil made my skin look so fresh and radiant, I was shocked each time I applied it and then saw myself in the mirror.  The sunflower and Tamanu oils along with ginger root oil help to show your best you, the antioxidants fight free radicals  & do a great job at it.  The oil didn’t affect me applying makeup and I think it actually allowed me to use less makeup since my skin was so much brighter.  Def not a budget product, but def an incredible product.

Bliss Fabulous Makeup Melt Gel-to-Oil Cleanser, $28
My nightly skincare routine always involves a double cleanse, first with a specific makeup remover like this Bliss product, and then with a targeted face cleanser.  I’ve been using this Gel-to-Oil cleanser for a while now, the gel part is definitely interesting, but I like the consistency of when it changes from gel to oil.  It takes off my waterproof mascara perfectly, and removes all makeup to prep my skin for whichever targeted cleanser I choose for the night.

MAC Tinted Lipglass in Pink Nouveau, $16
I love love love the light pink color this gives my lips, and my favorite part, the shine factor is high.  It’s so easy to put this on top of your favorite lipstick for some added kick, but I also love wearing this on its own too.  MAC has a lot of great lipglass colors, but this one caught my eye because I think it’s so flexible in how many different lipsticks you could pair it with.

Starbucks Quilted Pink Double Wall Traveler, $18.95
The Valentine’s Day collection from Starbucks this year is perfection.  The light pinks, hearts, and glitter tumblers are basically almost sold out everywhere, so I knew I needed to move fast on this quilted pink traveler mug.  I have nice little collection of these, I use them every day for work, so adding another one to my collection was no big deal.  I love the color, it’s nice and bright, and the quilted look gives it a cute winter vibe.

Bath & Body Works Cinnamon Caramel Swirl 3-Wick Candle 
This scent is no longer available online, but you might be able to find it in store!  It’s super sweet, which I usually don’t love, but for some reason I really really like this scent!  I have it burning in my kitchen now, so if you love sweet smelling candles, this one will be perfect for you!
