Can't Live Without Em Favorites

It's been awhile since I've done a favorites post and I thought I would shake things up a bit this time. Pictured above are products that are my tried and true favorites. These are the things that I use pretty much everyday that I don't want to be without. Most of them I have reviewed before, but will give you a one sentence mini review of each below. Some of these products I have been using for years and some of them just within the past year. But they are all things that I have grown to really love and that work very well for me and that I swear by.

In no particular order:

Cover Girl Lash Blast Mascara - Gives me crazy volume and length and it last's all day and doesn't irritate my eyes.

Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliners - I have oily eyelids and nothing lasts better on my eyes and waterlines like these do!

Physicians Formula Mineral Wear Pressed Powder in Beige - This is so gentle and soft on my face and it has never broken me out and it gives an amazing airbrushed finish.

Nubian Heritage African Black Soap - This is my daily face soap and it keeps my skin clear and has really helped to elliminate redness and combat oil without ever drying my skin out.

Olive Oil - This is my go to moisturizer that I use on my face, eyes and cuticles and it sounds scary, but doesn't break me out and it's great as a treatment on the ends of your hair too!

Crest 3D Vivid White Toothpaste - The best whitening toothpaste I've ever found and it makes your breath nice too!

Pantene Beautiful Lengths Shine Enhance Conditioner - This is so creamy and smells so good and it does the job without weighing down your hair.

John Frieda Full Repair Full Body Shampoo - This has helped my hair so much from heat and color damage and it really does give volume.

John Frieda Go Blonder Lightening Shampoo - This works great on my blonde highlights and really keeps them bright!

Nivea A Kiss of Milk and Honey Lip Balm - This works great under lipstick and I also like to use it at night before bed.

Queen Helene 100% Pure Cocoa Butter Stick - An excellent multi-purpose beauty product that I use on my lips, face and cuticles.

Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque - Works wonders to control oily skin as well as zapping blemishes and also is a good overnight spot treatment.

Alba Coconut Cream Lip Balm - Tastes and smells like fresh coconuts and it's so very moisturizing!

L'Oreal True Match Foundation in W4 Natural Beige - I hate heavy foundations, but this one is so light and provides the perfect amount of coverage without looking fake.

Garnier Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller Concealer - It feels so good to apply this product and it really helps to brighten undereyes.

Urban Decay Primer Potion - Helps keep my eye makeup in place on my oily eyelids all day and then some!

Clean and Clear Oil Sheets - These are truly a modern wonder and the best oil sheets ever made and I will never be without them!

Tresemme Thermal Creations Heat Tamer Protective Spray (Not Pictured) - I have used this spray for years and it does a fantastic job of protecting my hair from blowing drying and flat ironing and it smells really nice too!

I hope you have enjoyed this Favorites review. If you are like me - Early 30's, oily yet clear sensitive skin, colored straight medium thick but with lots of baby fine hair w/ oily roots and dry ends - then most of these products will be excellent for you too. I hope that if you try any of these products that you enjoy them as much as I do!
