My Recent Beauty Faves
A few weeks ago I was chatting with a few other Boston bloggers at an event about the number of beauty samples we had all acquired, but had yet to try. Out of that convo, I decided it would be fun to do a little round up of my recent favorite beauty products. Some have been gifted, some are ones I bought- but all of them have been in heavy use recently! I’m always always wanting to hear about new beauty products- so don’t forget to leave me some of your recent faves in the comments below!
Clarisonic Mia 2 Skin Cleaning System– I’ve been wanting to try the Clarisonic for a while so took advantage of the sale during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale. I use it twice a week to get a really good clean and I love the way my skin looks after- it leaves me very fresh faced. This is a new product for me so I’ll keep you posted on it after some time pasts too!
M-61 by Blue Mercury PowerSpot Blemish Lotion (c/o)- This product is a miracle worker! Dab a little bit onto a cotton round and apply to a pimple overnight- when you wake up in the morning your pimple will be dried up and gone! Obsessed!
Bite Beauty Liquefied Lipstick in Flambe (c/o Influenster)- I’ve loved Bite’s lip products for years and y’all know I love a good red lip. This one has a great shine and is long lasting so it’s the perfect addition to my red lip collection. You can see me wearing the lip color in this post.
Clinique Pep Start Purifying Mask (c/o)- I’ve been loving this mask since I received it- it is a great mask to use to clean deep into your pores and exfoliate. I feel squeaky clean after using it and I think it helps to better absorb serums and moisturizers after use. Plus the bubbling effect is pretty fun!
Laura Mercier Brow Pencil– I recently got my a little lesson on doing my brows at the opening party for Blue Mercury here in the Seaport. This pencil is killer for filling in my brows and comes with a little brush too that helps tame them. Now that I’ve learned, I love doing my brows and feel like it gives me a much more finished look!
Lune + Aster Stratosphere Mascara (c/o) – I’m always looking for new mascara products to try. This one has been my go-to for the last month. It separates, lengthens and adds volume to my lashes. I also love that it washes off easily as opposed to be having to rub my eyes a ton to get it off. Winner!
Lune + Aster One Step Brow (c/o)- The other piece of the brow puzzle- this one step brow gel via Blue Mercury is amazing! I use it during the day on it’s own to give my brows a bit more defined shape and then pair it with the Laura Mercier Brow Pencil for a nighttime ready look.
Laura Mercier Lipstick in Sensual– This is my perfect nude lip and I swear it looks good on everyone. I’ve made my sister and my friends use it when going out and everyone loves it. If you are looking for a good neutral lip color, give this one a try! You can see me wearing it here and here for reference .
Ted Baker Makeup bag– Not really a beauty product, but it holds beauty products 🙂 There’s nothing better than a cute new makeup bag. This vinyl one from Ted Baker has the cutest bow detail and fits all my essentials for a weekend away or just a morning getting ready at the gym.
What are some of your recent beauty faves? Let me know in the comments below!

Hi,
I am thinking it over of what products to purchase. I want to buy Clarisonic skincare brush but already sold out. So I just decide to buy Clinique Mask and Bite Beauty Lipstick. Thanks for sharing.
