Products I’ve Been Digging At The Moment
May 1, 2014I mean I feel like after my last two posts where do I go from there? Okay to my next favorite things, talking about products that I can’t get enough of right now. You know I do my research so let’s jump right in.
#1 Stila Custom Blush
I am obsessed with this blush. It is pH sensitive so it corrects to you to find the most perfect and natural looking pink flush. I will tell you it’s super pigmented. I pretty much just tap my brush on it and it’s plenty of coverage. Therefore don’t be scared of the price tag. I honestly believe this blush could last you years by how little you need when applying. You can find it here.
It also comes in a coral color with just the tiniest bit of sparkle (note very tiny). Yes I got both. I couldn’t decide, I mean Sephora has the best return policy but I love both of them! I can’t wait to break this out when I have a little more color. Can you imagine the perfect back from the beach tan with a swipe of this and some gold eye shadow? Definitely a Summer ready to wear.
#2 Padded Layering Bra
I wish I could shout out from the rooftops about this bra. Of course because I liked it and want to share it with you a lot of the colors are already sold out. I have been on the hunt for a bralette that actually had a tiny bit of coverage…..you know there is lots of air conditioning down here. I could never find one that didn’t completely flatten me out and was too thin. This bra is my answer.
It has the tiniest bit of padding but you want to know the best part? It lifts you up and doesn’t have any underwires. It has adjustables straps, hook closures in the back and it so comfortable. Actually no here is the best part. It’s $7.80. Yes that’s right. I’ve had mine for about 2 months now. It has washed perfectly and is holding up great. Do yourself a favor and buy it in every color before it sells off the website like everything else I seem to ever like. You can find it here. Oh and it’s totally not weird so I’ll get it out of the way. I am a smallish size B. The small fits perfectly. I found a bra very similar at Victoria Secret the other night for $46….yeah no thanks this one is perfection! Trust me on this one I have been searching!
#3 YSL Glossy Stain
Okay I really have to insist you get this. I know it’s expensive but I’m telling you I have had my red one for over 6 months and it is still going strong with no problems. IT IS THE MOST PERFECT THING EVER. Yes I needed caps because it is just that good.
Here is my tip. Apply a thin layer and leave your mouth kinda open for like 30 seconds until it sets. Then you are good to go. I’m drinking my coffee right now with my pink one and it’s staying on my lips not the cup. Yes you read that right. Budge proof. Mark always steers clear of me with red lipstick on but he’s not safe with this one. It’s kissable. Stays on your lips and no one else’s! It is non drying. I applied it at the beginning of the night for the Pure Barre party, one swipe and it stayed on for hours. This picture was at the end of the night. See how great it still looks??
Also you know when you wear red and when it starts to fade you get that red outer ring on your lips like you are wearing lip liner and then the inside is bare and you look terrible? Not with this one. It fades perfectly, almost looks like a stain and then goes away. It’s glossy but not sticky. I mean I could go on forever. Use your gift cards, or just splurge a little you will not be sorry I promise! No 20 Rouge Enamel is the most perfect red ever I promise!
I also just took the plunge and got a new one. It is the most perfect dark pink. Good for daytime and nighttime wear. Number 104 Fuchsia Tomboy. Don’t let the name scare you it’s not too bright.
#4 Sparkling Limoncello Hand Soap
My nails have been peeling and it’s because of all the hand washing I do at home and at work. I got that get $10 off when you spend $30 coupon that Bath & Body Works sends you every month to lure you in. I was talking to the guy at the store about how dry my nails were and he walked me right over. He said they have literally been flying off the shelves. First of all it smells like Heaven. Second, it has olive oil in it so your hands are moisturized by using it. I am not joking I am already starting to notice the difference. Plus it is a huge bottle and comes in a refillable glass container. Also it looks pretty. There I said it. Find it here.
#5 Bliss Vanilla + Bergamot Line
I scored this body butter and body wash at TJMaxx. I am in love. It smells delicious and it’s super moisturizing. Bliss products are amazing and contain no Parabens. This tube has lasted me forever! It is thick but soaks up quickly and doesn’t stay greasy. Keep an eye out at your TJMaxx or you can order it here.
Honorable Mentions
If the jumpsuit trend is here to stay….this is the cutest one I have seen so far. I really like the tapered leg.
This Perfume
I never thought I would ever stray from my Guerlain L’Instant but they can never keep it in stock anywhere it is literally a cult classic. I did try Flowerbomb and it does smell pretty amazing.
This Hairspray
It is like the perfect blend between my Aveda strong hold and air control. Absolutely love this one.
Alright now it is your turn! Tell me what products you have been loving lately! Have you tried any of the ones I mentioned?
Don’t forget about the link up tomorrow! Tell me about your favorites from the week! xoxoxo
Flowerbomb is currently my perfume of choice – I am obsessed with it!! I have the bliss body butter and love it just as much as you do! Still deciding if I want to buy that jumpsuit – I think it would be perfect for summer date nights!!!
I have a couple of Stila blushes and love them! Also loving, NARS Laguna bronzer, YSL Babydoll mascara, MAC Creamsheen Glass in “Just Superb” Now, after reading this, I’m wanting the YSL Glossy Stain!!
This has nothing to do with the products but NOW I see your arm trick in the photo under the YSL glossy stain! Shoulder back, inner elbow (what’s that called?) forward!
Sneaky.
ooooh, I love me a glossy stain, woop woop!
And I’m totally in the market for a new perfume.
Need to try that coral blush and that bra!
totally digging Bite lipsticks. i had one of those custom blushes but mine was from Nars.

I loooove the smell of Flowerbomb! Definitely want to add that to my collection in the future.
And that pink YSL gloss… LOVE!
i need to try that hand soap, my nails have been horrible lately!
Love, love, love my YSL Stains :) I will definitely check out that Stila blush — the description reminds me of my Dior Addict Lip Glow, in that it reacts with skin chemistry so the color’s a little different on everyone.
YES to the Limoncello Hand Soap!!! my friend had this and I washed my hands with it and fell in love with the scent… i went out and bought it too!!!
ps i can totally see you rocking that forever21 jumpsuit thing. it would look great on you!
Ok, I’m glad to hear you like that blush. I’ve thought about getting it many times, but bright pink scared me off. I also didn’t know it came in coral?! Hello, beautiful!
If you get that jumpsuit you better put pics up!! I’m going to have to try that lip stain and that blush! Both sound awesome and I’m always looking for a good lip stain that isn’t overly drying!

I love the little bralet you picked! I seriously need to go to forever 21. I am going to try this blush, too! I never venture from my regular beauty routine but I need to!

I have heard so much about that Stila blush. With your rave review, I think it’s finally time I give it a try! Maybe when I have enough Ulta points again to get some money off. :) I love that jumpsuit … I’ve been wanting to try out the style, but I don’t want to spend a fortune on it until I know I like it. Such problems!
I want that padded layering bra!! Like a fancy sports bra ;)
That layering bra is so my jam!!! I need that!!
Getting that bra in every color!!
You know I’ve been waiting for this post all week!! Ahhh so many things I want to try and OF COURSE that jumpsuit is from F21! So cute!
I am in need of a new blush, going to head to Sephora for that Stila one.
Also that bra = need! Been looking for one exactly like that!
I’m in the market for a new blush, but I think I want a cream or gel.
I really like that jumpsuit. I want to try one, that one looks like something I would love. I am probably going to buy that blush, like today. Not gonna lie.
Oooooh I love me some Flowerbomb… I just can’t afford it:( I need to look into that bralette, I am so sick of shelling out a fortune at VS!! Thanks girl!
i dont have any product recommedations, i am such a copier. i am loving orgasm (super orgasm?) by Nars, which is way more expensive than the one you listed so clearly i am doing it wrong, and I just bought some revlon colorstay foundation that i luh-ove – but i am new to the foundation thing, i used to only wear tinted moisturizer. my forever21 order FINALLY arrived so I am going to try on that bra and then order 17 more if I like it. Do they have it in store? I am not good with lip stuff, I look like a toddler when I apply anything other than chapstick.
oooo I’m liking to coral color blush & padded layering bra? Yes please!
looooving that bra! xo jillian – cornflake dreams
i want to be bold and get a romper!
I want to try that hand soap I love the limoncello scents.
Badger rose face oil as a moisturizer. It’s absolutely fabulous! I’m really digging it!
Intrigued by the Stila coral blush. If it’s not pricier than Nars I’m sold!
How is it that I have tried NONE OF THESE THINGS?!?! Blasphemy I tell you! I hope you’re doing well, friend! I’ve fallen off the planet and I’m SO sorry!
i cannot get down with the jumpsuit trend. it just looks bad on me. but i NEED that blush. so pretty!
I neeeeeeed that blush and the lemon soap!!!!
I need that blush and lip stain ASAP! They both sound amazing! Dying over that jumpsuit! I just found one very similar from AE for $9 that will be making an appearance on the blog next week! :))

Ahhhhh I need that hand soap yesterday!!! I have thj same problem!
I saw that body wash at TJ Maxx too but it was a few minutes after walking in and I didn’t want to carry it around. (I dont get a cart in that store or I FILL it.) I completely forgot to go back for it until now. Drat!
I am so lipstick shy…but that pink gloss has me wanting to try it on!
Omg that bra. I need that. I need it. I’m gonna try that age blur stuff you were talking about a few weeks ago and let you know how that goes :)
That blush is so pretty and although I WISH I could pull off the hot pink I think I’m really more of a coral girl. And whoa, an amazing bra for less than $10? Sign me up!!
Shame on you for ruining my self control. Must. Have. Every. Color. Bra. :) lol
Nice stuff!
And I like that bra.
OMG that jumpsuit needs to be on my body! I bought one at Target this winter that haas a tapered leg. Super cute!
Thanks for the recs! I’m always looking for new lip glosses and blushes. We’re both paler blondes so I’m sure we can pull off the same colors!
I LOVE the YSL Glossy Stains and I have to try the Stila blush now! It sounds amazing! And, I need that bra in my life!
I am way too afraid of the jumpsuit trend, but that one is cute!
That blush sounds so cool! I have to check it out.

I have to check out that glossy stain. I use mac lip gloss which works but I want something good thats not as harsh as lipstick but a little more than lipgloss. Gonna check this out.
I feel like I need to try all of these things after you’ve raved about them! I hate when I get a ring around my lips, so I may take your advice and try out some YSL glossy stain. I wish it was easier to find YSL products around here!

From your picture alone I MUST try the YSL gloss.
That stila blush is on of my faves! That bra looks pretty awesome and can’t beat the price! XO
some great finds
flowerbomb rocks! that bra has me curious…I’m always looking for some padding that doesn’t look like padding:) you look amazing in your LBD…Stunning!
XO, Gina
I am so bummed, I thought I was following you on Bloglovin, turns out, I wasn’t! Now I am! Anyway, I just bought 2 new sports bras last week to have for my biopsy, and I got ones that have a bit of padding and lift. But I totally spent more than the ones you mentioned above. Damn!
