December Favorites

Hello! Today I'm going to do a quick beauty favorites post for December! I usually film my monthly favorites videos, but since I'm filming a best of beauty for 2015, I thought I'd share my favorites for this month in a blog post instead. I was going to skip my December favorites since I'm doing a yearly one, but there were a few things that I was enjoying this month that I didn't want to leave out!


Lush Celestial Moisturizer- I picked this up in November and I instantly fell in love. This smells amazing and makes my face feel super nice. 
EOS smooth stick balm in Vanilla Bean- I'm not a huge fan of the eos balms, and everyone raves about the egg shaped ones. I saw these stick balm ones and got suckered into the cute packaging, as I did in the past with the egg shaped ones. This isn't the best for keeping my lips hydrated, but I loveeeee the vanilla bean flavor/scent! It does an ok job at keeping my lips moisturized but it's definitely not the best out there. 
Estée Lauder a Double Wear Foundation- I've talked about this many times but it's the longest wearing foundation I have. I found myself reaching for it a lot this month because there were a lot of times that I had things like holiday parties to do after I got out of work, or all day events like Christmas etc. that I needed my makeup to last all day. 

I've been into my Mac palette a lot the past few weeks. Some of these are MUG shadows, but the Mac ones I've been enjoying are soft brown, shroom, and twinks.
Colourpop Puppy Love- I know I just got this one but I can obsessed. It's such a pretty shade and for an amazing cause!

This is all for my favorites this month. I only picked my top 5 things, since my yearly favorites post will be up soon! Hopefully tomorrow or Wednesday it will be up on my YouTube channel and I will make a post letting you guys know!

What are some of your favorites this month?

  1. I'm not sure if I will be doing a December favourites, it has been a crazy busy month and it's pretty much a blur for me. Can't believe 2015 is ending in a few days, seriously though, where has the time gone too?!

  5. Great favorites, Ashley! I completely agree about those mac shadows! There are so many new eyeshadows out now, that sometimes I forget about Mac. Those shadows are really good. I love Shroom and Soft Brown too. Can't wait to see your best of list!

  9. I really need to give that foundation another try. I got a sample and didn't really like it...but I have been thinking about getting the full size from Sephora, they have a pretty good return policy anyway. Great favorites Ashley!
