Summer favs

This summer I have found some fantastic, new to me, beauty favs. These are products/items that I have been reaching for constantly in the past few months and I know I will continue reaching for them well into the fall and winter.

 If you are a girl who loves a matte/satin finish to your pressed powder, then this is the one for you! It's incredible. The powder itself isn't cakey and when you wear it you don't feel like you're wearing any makeup at all. I use it as a finishing power and for touch ups during the day. It leaves my face looking smooth, even and like I have no makeup on at all. Amazing!!
 I have been dying for a pair of mirrored aviators for months and at the beginning of summer I finally bought a pair. They are my favorite sunglasses that I have even owned. They are light weight but durable(they are made from titanium). They add a little edge to girly dresses and florals and fit in nicely with black, leather, dark denim, and boots. LOVE these!
 An oldie but a goodie. Dolce, Dolce, Dolce....how I love you. The perfect scent for summer. Light, crisp, and complementry.
 A co-worker of mine got me absolutely hooked on this lip treatment/balm this summer. I love the look of a balm or gloss that gives you the same effect if you were to eat a red popsicle or sucker, and this achieves that. It's moisturizing, sheer with a beautiful hint of reddish-pink(light) and has an SPF 15. I will be forever purchasing this from Sephora. http://www.sephora.com/sugar-lip-treatment-spf-15-P57002
 A friend of mine told me how amazing this Baby Lips product was. Not that I needed another lip balm, but I decided to give it a try. It turned out to be my favorite clear lip balm that I reach for constantly. It has a minty scent/flavour and gives the lips a shiny, "your lips but better", appearance. And it's very affordable. Win-win!
 First of, I have never met a Burts Bee's product I didn't like. This particular lotion just happened to be my fav this summer. It is quick absorbing, moisturizing and leaves the skin with a very light almost shimmer effect. It amplifies your skin making it looked airbrushed. Worth a try!
I am a few years behind with the whole Wayfarer sunglasses trend, but once I purchased a pair, I fell in love. It adds a laid back easiness to any outfit, which I love. They are classicly cool and timeless. Love them!! Xo
