What I’m Lovin’ – May Favorites!

Hi guys!


I’m back with my favorites for the month of May! This month I have several lip products, a couple pairs of shoes, some makeup, and a hair tool featured.  So keep reading if you are want to see what I’ve been Lovin’ this month


Check it out!



Rimmel Lasting Finish Lipstick in Airy Fairy
I wore this lipstick nearly everyday this month. Normally I like to vary my lip color daily, if only to keep things interesting, but not this month. It is a simple my-lips-but-better cool toned pink. I have been pairing it with the next product for a really pretty but natural lip look. 

NYX Mega Shine Lipgloss in Natural
I have been using this lipgloss over the Rimmel lipstick all month. I think that I used this one even more often than the lipstick, as I would just swipe on this gloss on days when I wasn’t wearing lipstick. Normally I don’t like the stickiness of a gloss on top of my lips (my hair always gets in it) but not this month, I guess. This gloss is pretty pigmented but is the color of my natural lips so it just adds a little something to finish off my face. 

Eucerin Aquaphor Lip Repair
With all this lipstick wearing, I started upping my lip care game. I have been using this lip treatment every night and again in the mornings to keep my lips soft and un-chapped. Especially as I prefer long-wearing lipsticks, lip care is a must. This works really well as an overnight treatment and then I add a little extra while I’m getting ready in the morning to prep my lips for the day.  

Steve Madden Smoking Slippers in Plum
I have never given these shoes the amount of love that they got this month. I have been obsessively wearing neutrals and these shoes are the perfect pairing. Whether the outfit is all black or whites and denim, a pop of purple in the shoes always works. Needless to say, when I wasn’t wearing the next item, I was wearing these Smoking Slippers on my feet. 

Frye Carlie Platfom Sandals
As the weather warms up, these lovelies have been broken out more and more frequently. I love these sandals! I think you could say that they are one of my favorite pairs of shoes. They are a classic style, comfortable, super easy to walk in, and go with nearly any outfit. Dress ’em up, dress em’ down, they always add a touch of class to my outfits. I look forward to the time of year when I can wear these puppies.

Urban Decay Naked Basics Palette
This month I noticed myself giving a lot of love to my Naked Basics Palette. I didn’t do this intentionally but with rushed mornings, this palette is such an easy product to grab. I generally lean towards matte colors so with these six matte colors together in one place it’s a no brainer (especially pre-coffee). I really think that Urban Decay does a great job making sure that all the colors in their palettes can be combined to make tons of looks.

Conair Instant Heat 1’1/2” (3.8cm) Curling Iron
Since I chopped my hair off, I have been styling it much more often than previously. I think this haze of hair love will fade shortly but until then I have been styling my hair with this curling iron almost daily. I wash it at night, let it dry overnight, and in the morning add some bouncy curls/waves. This iron is large enough that the curls never look too “done”, especially after giving them a healthy shaking.


That is it for my May favorites!
