Another month, another favorites list! It's crazy to me that we are nearing fall! As always, if something makes this list, it is the best of the best! I linked to all of my past 2024 monthly favorites at the end of this post and my monthly 2023 favorites!
This is a housekeeping reminder that the Dermstore Sale is still going strong. My favorites are here.
Spray Sunscreen// I love this sunscreen brand. The branding is what first intrigued me. I just love that vintage look! However, the sunscreen not only works and sprays nicely but it smells SO GOOD. It smells like a topical vacation- a mix of olc school sunscreen and pina colada. It's such a treat to spray! I tried the whipped cream looking sunscreen from this brand and while the novelty of it was fun, it was just that: a novelty and didn't seem practical as I found it a bit messy and hard to deal with.
Olives// If you love dirty martinis and want to make them at home but don't always have fresh castelvetrano olives on hand, this jar of olives is sensational. The brine is perfectly salty and the olives stay crisp and have a great flavor. I think the label is beautiful so it would present beautifully as a host/hostess gift!
Red Dress// A new fan of this brand, this dress is so nicely made. It's not your typical smocked dress. The skirt is full and lined and has pockets. The fabric is high-quality. I find that this brand, overall, runs big. I got a small but in hindsight, wish I would have gotten an XS.
Eyeshadow Quad// I'm not an eyeshadow gal, but as I get older, I feel that my face sometimes requires a little more color and this eyeshadow quad is just stunning. Cos Bar sent me the most lovely package and this was included. I would not have selected it myself but wow, it's a beauty treat. The colors have no 'fall out' (which is the term you use for the eyeshadow sprinkling down below your eye). They are vibrantly pigmented but even if you have a heavy hand, you won't find yourself looking like a clown. I love the sparkly shade in the top left and use the darkest shade in the lower right to line my top lash line. I find that technique to look more natural vs. pencil liner.
Cashmere Wrap// This is the most beautiful color I've ever seen. It's truly next level and I find myself wearing outfits so that the wrap will match. I'm currently trying to brainstorm how I will style it this fall/winter... it is cashmere, after all.
Tinted Lip Oil// These are inexpensive and my code SYDNEYCARVER will save you $ at checkout. They are something to keep in mind for stocking stuffers. The texture is light and the colors are light but beautiful and perfect for daily wear. These would be a great lip product for teens just starting to get into makeup or anyone who doesn't wear much makeup since they are subtle. My favorite is ruby!
Microcurrent Facial Device// My code WINDZIIP will give you 10% off but I am here to tell you this device is legit. ZIIP sent me this microcurrent device and I have been using it religiously for the past 8 weeks. I don't skip a day. Read about microcurrent on your own as it is a bit more technical than a serum or cream but I fully notice results. My mom has the NuFace (which is similar, just a different brand) and she also loves it! I am telling you, do not hesitate on trying out microcurrent. I'm such a fan.
Custom Leather Pet Pouch// My friend, Sunny, sent me this custom Henry pouch from her brand, Tigre De Tartan. I've been following her for years on her other Instagram and we have chatted back and forth for years but never actually met in person. She is the most lovely woman and has the absolute best taste ever. I cannot tell you how much I cherish the beautiful leather pouch. I would highly recommend this for any pet lover in your life.
Teeth Whitening Strips// I have seen influencers all do ads for this brand so I decided to do some 'research' and purchase them and try them out. I am a big Crest White Strips fan but I have read about them wearing down the enamel on the teeth. The Lumineux is supposed to be more natural. These work and work well with the caveat that you have to use five-ish, five days in a row to get the results that one Crest strip would yield. So that definitely makes them less cost effective but I have since purchased more and will continue to use them and enjoy them! There is absolutely no sensitivity with these so they would also be perfect for someone with sensitive teeth or gums.
Gold Under Eye Stick// I've been using the rose stick for years and love it. I use it every single morning without fail. It truly depuffs and feels SO good on my eyes. It feels cold and just helps me to wake up. I ran out of my rose stick so I tried this gold stick I got in a PR package a while ago. I LOVE this one. I actually think it works even better than the rose as I notice it feels cooler! You can use my code SYDNEY at checkout to save!
Face Wash// This is a good inepxnsive face wash I have been trying. I love my Elemish face wash but this costs less and I find it does a great job cleansing and doesn't leave my face dry. I would say it's fairly similar to the Elemis.
