Time for my monthly roundup of the beauty products I’ve been reaching for the most over the month of November!

Tarte‘s Blissful blush is a fairly untraditional blush to be constantly using during the fall months, but it’s what I ended up reaching for the most. It’s definitely more of a summer shade since it’s quite coral, but for whatever reason I was gravitating towards it a lot throughout November. It’s a beautiful shade (and the first blush I ever owned!) that blends onto the skin wonderfully. It can go on the skin quite strong in pigmentation, so if you don’t want a very strong colour on your cheeks, apply it lightly and build up as needed.

After my NYX Butter Gloss buying rampage over the last month, I settled on using Creme Brulee the most. It’s a “goes with anything” shade, which makes it pretty painless when you can’t figure out what will match your eyeshadows. Smooth and creamy, *any* of the Butter Glosses are worth picking up!

Beautiful, BEAUTIFUL shade. Revlon‘s Cherries in the Snow isn’t available for purchase in Canada as far as I can tell, so I remedied this problem for myself by buying it through Amazon.com. Personally, I find it to be a very deep, hot pink colour, but every time someone commented on my lips while I was wearing this, the person referred to it as “red”. As I’m finding with all of Revlon‘s Super Lustrous lipsticks, this wears smoothly, feels comfortable on the lips, and lasts for hours at a time.

Dior‘s Amber Diamond is beautiful, although not necessarily that unique. I’ll admit it’s a beautiful compact – the product looks gorgeous and the compact has a rather large mirror (and no wasted space for those nasty brushes that some companies give you!), but the shade itself, while stunning, is not all that different in consistency from MAC‘s Soft and Gentle. That being said, it is slightly more amber/copper than Soft and Gentle which is what I wanted throughout November. I also feel like this is a neverending product – I’ve used this same powder off and on for over a year now and I have yet to see ANY dent in the product!

Revlon‘s Bronzed & Chic bronzer has four blocks of varying bronzer colour which allow for customization based on your own skin’s shade. Surprisingly, I dip more into the darker shade, although I end up applying it quite lightly. It’s completely matte, which can help balance off a very shimmery eye look. Since the product is so matte, it can also be used to contour your face, although this isn’t something I do personally.

As we move into the cooler months, I end up wearing less and less foundation (partly because I can’t stand how gross winter jacket collars can get when you see foundation stains on them). Since Bourjois‘ Healthy Mix Serum (currently wearing shade 52 Vanilla) is a very light, gel-like foundation, it’s a nice, easy one to wear that doesn’t feel heavy on the skin. The berry scent of the foundation makes applying the foundation feel rather refreshing, which is not something I’ve ever felt while applying any other foundation. It’s not the longest wearing foundation, so if you’re super concerned with having a flawless look that will last all day, then this may not be the foundation for you. For me though, it’s an everlasting favourite. As I get paler throughout the winter months, I also have the next shade down (51 Light Vanilla) ready and waiting!

The picture above pretty much speaks for itself – I finished this Coconut Body Butter fromThe Body Shop over the last month. The scent is long-lasting on the skin and smells pretty fantastic, although I wouldn’t call it a genuine coconut scent… it’s more the synthetic coconut scent that we’ve grown accustomed to in products over the years.

So that’s my monthly roundup of the products I’ve been loving. We’ll see what next month brings!
