August Favorite Products

Where do I start ??!! I have too many favorite products that I want to share with you !!

I was thinking about what to post next on my blog and I came up with the idea to share my favorite products of the month August with you.
I have some hair products, skincare and of course MAKEUP !

So let's start start with some SKINCARE products.
Last month I received this shower cream in my beauty box. It's a shower cream from a brand called Greenland. The one I got was the Milky almond milk & lotus shower cream. It hydrates and balances the skin. It is also suitable for dry and sensitive skin. This shower cream is also parabens free and has no artificial colorants in it. So after I used it a couple of times I started liking it very much. The smell is incredible and it leaves my skin super soft. I never heard of this brand before so I went online to find some more information about them. I was blown away !! All their products are based on natural and organic ingredients. They offer a large selection on skincare and home cosmetics.The ingredients are tested in a natural, comprehensive way and never tested on animals. So naturally satisfying ! I also liked the packaging very much. I'm planning on ordering some more products of their assortment. Another thing that surprised me were their prices! Normally if I want a good shower cream based on natural products I will have to pay at least €10 to €13. Greenland's Milky shower cream retails in their web-shop for €8,95.
I think Greenland is here to stay ! Take a look at their assortment on Greenlandbodycare
This next product is from a brand called Anatomicals. It's a foot cream. On the packaging it saids that it's against cheesy smelling feet hahaha. For the record !! I do not have cheesy smelling feet hahah, but this foot cream is soooo refreshing. It has this strong mint scent and when you rub it on your feet it's like air-conditioning for your feet. Amazinggg !! I really loved this foot cream during the hot summer days. It comes in a cute green tube with the most funny text on it. Anatomicals is a Dutch brand and exclusively available on some websites. I think the one with the largest assortment of Anatomicals is boozy shop, but don't hold you breath on that lol ! The price is good for the product you get, almost everything from the Anatomicals is under €10 !!
The last skincare product I want to share with you is the Beautifying Oil Coconut from The Body Shop. OMG !! This is oil ladies!! Uhummmm you need this in your life!! It is a dry oil, that your skin absorbs really fast, so it doesn't feel greasy at all. You can use it on your body aswell as your face. This oil gives you that inside out glowing effect and that's all we want for the winter don't we ??
In the The Netherlands the Beautifying Oils retail online for €10. If you want to check them out, you can find them on bodyshop.com

HAIR PRODUCTS
About hair products I only have two that I want to share with you. The first one is the Deep Conditioning Cream from a brand called Cantu. I have tried a lot of deep conditionings in my life, but Cantu is by far one of my favourites. It has this very thick and creamy texture that works just perfect for my hair. You can also use it as a leave in conditioner if you have dry or damaged hair.
It really helped my hair ! Cantu is a brand for natural hair and is parabens and sulfate free. However if your transitioning from relaxed to natural hair you can also use the products of Cantu. They will help your natural hair to remain strong throughout the transitioning period.
The other hair product I'm currently loving is the Creme of Nature with Argan Oil- Perfect Edges. It's a hair gel with perfect hold that doesn't flake. Isn't that all we want from a hair gel ??!! This hair gel makes my edges grow stronger and gives them a natural shine. If you have problems with your edges breaking off I suggest you try this edge control out. You won't be disappointed !

MAKE-UP
Last but not least. My favorite make up products for August !!! I will start with products from the brand Benefit, the Porefessional and the HOOLA bronzer. The Porefessional is the best pore minimizer I have ever tried. I have oily skin and I depend on pore minimizers, primers and setting sprays so I don't grease up during the day. After seeing a lot of vloggers on youtube using the Porefessional from Benefit I decided to give it try. And ladies, it really works !! It minimize the appearance of my pores, therefor my make up stays on much longer and better. The other product from Benefit that I'm loving is their HOOLA bronzer. I personally do not like shimmery bronzers due to my oily skin. The HOOLA bronzer is a matte bronzer, that adjusts to your skin color. The great thing about that is, that you can build the color up for a more intense bronzing effect. Another thing that I like about this bronzer is that it comes with a brush that makes bronzing and countering easy for everybody. Thumbs up for Benefit ! The prices however are not the cheapest, the HOOLA bronzer retails for €32 and the Porefessional for €33. But the are definitely worth it. You can order them online on benefitcosmetics.com or if you live in The Netherlands you can get them at Douglas.
The next product is a blush from Sleek cosmetics. The blush is called 'Life's a Peach' and it is a very summery peachy color hahah (don't laugh at my description). I have been loving this blush throughout the whole summer and I'm hoping to keep wearing it in the fall also :( The blush is very pigmented so I think I could build up this color for fall season also. If you want to check out the Sleek blushes, you can on sleekcosmetics.com. The blushes retail for €5,99.
After we put on all that gorgeous make up, we want it to stay perfect all day and all night. That brings me to my last two favorites product for August (and every another month)!! They are the Urban Decay Makeup setting spray !! Once again for my oily skin these are my go to setting sprays. Urban Decay has two setting spray, the all nighter and the de-slick oil control. During the day as I go to work, shopping or running errands I use the de-slick oil control. It prevents my pores from producing to much oil. This way I can longer enjoy a matte look. When I have a long night ahead of me, I use the all-nighter setting spray. It prevents my makeup from melting-down and keeps my makeup looking gorgeously just-applied for at least 8 hours. 'Cause ladies ain't nobody got time to keep re-touching makeup when we out there having fun!!

I hope you're still awake ?! :)
