Monthly Favorites: April

April brought some nice warm and sunny days. Some days, even a bit too warm. I have had to switch a few products from my wintery skincare and makeup rotations, and also pulled my feet out of my socks to wear some sandals :)

W3LL PEOPLE Lip Gloss in Pink Twinkle Review

Lately, I tried so many beautiful lipsticks that I almost forgot how much I like wearing lip glosses. Maybe I just had not tried a truly beautiful lip gloss that I felt comfortable wearing every day. Until I purchased W3ll People Lipgloss in Pink Twinkle.

Another Favorite: Ilia Beauty Nobody's Baby

Nobody's Baby is the second Ilia Beauty Tinted Lip Conditioner that I have tried. If you read my previous review of the Ilia Beauty Tinted Lip Conditioner, you already know how much I enjoy their formula and love the other shade I own (it is still my very favorite!).

Nobody's Baby is described as "the perfect, sheer nude suited for any occasion", and I completely agree with this description. Nobody's Baby deposits just the right amount of color, and is the perfect color to match most lips.

Jane Iredale Forever Pink Just Kissed Lip and Cheek Stain

Jane Iredale Forever Pink Just Kissed Lip and Cheek Stain is a "lip and cheek stain that provides long-lasting, custom color to lips and cheeks." I received a deluxe sample of it as a complimentary gift with my most recent purchase of Jane Iredale products.

The Winning Formula: Ilia Beauty Lip Tinted Conditioners

Having suffered of a terrible breakout for the past few weeks, I tried to stay clear of face-makeup, and instead focused on trying some lip products (I already reviewed one of them here). I have fallen completely in love with one of them from Ilia Beauty. It is called a Lip Tinted Conditioner, but for me it is something in between a lip balm, a lipstick, and a lip gloss, all in one product. The Ilia Beauty lipsticks are made with organic oils and waxes (up to 85% certified organic ingredients) and the range of shades includes some of the most popular colors, from 60s' nudes to intense pinks, and even more classic reds. I picked the shade Blossom Lady, which is described by Ilia Beauty as a muted shade of pink. I quickly recognized that buying one shade was a big mistake: I should have purchased more!
