Back to school, back to work, back to univeristy...for many of us this is the rule. September is some kind of transitionning month (even the weather was!). I have to admit it was a bit hard for me to pick some products this month since I was not able to use many products because of severe allergies. This is why I also added two non-beauty favorites that are however worth trying!

Yves Saint-Laurent Rouge Volupte in #003 Ultimate Beige

Have I already mention how much  I love YSL... 
The pacaking of this lipstick is just gorgeous and probably the most beautiful. This color is a very elegant and perfect nude for medium skin and brunettes. 


L'Oreal BB Cream in #Medium

I already mention this product on my previous post. On a daily basis, I don't like to use foundation. I got this BB cream to replace my beloved Nars tinted moisturizer which is unavailble in Lebanon (sight..). I was scared at the beginning because there are only two colors (light and medium), but the texture manage to adapt to your skintone. The texture is a white pearly liquid but when you apply it onto your face, the color start to show up. The finish is matte, so no powder is needed for oily skin, but still manage to give you a healthy look.

Lush Tender is the night

Surprise! Another Lush product in my monthly favorites. I got a "massage bar" that I use as a body butter for "extra pampering time" and it is...divine! The shea butter nourrish the skin (I have extremely dry and irritated skin) while the mix of jasmine, vanilla and ylang-ylan leave a sensual and warm perfume. I am so happy they kept this as a permanent product. 
The only downside is the packaging...or the absense of packaging.  However you can buy a metal box specially made for these to store them. 


Uber Taxi
Let's say that this is a technology favorite. I discovered this app thanks to my boss (again!). It allows you to order a cab using your phone location. You can choose between the luxurious service (UberBlack) or the regular (UberX). Best part is that you don't need to cary cash (I just never have cash..). When you register, you enter your credit card details and for each order the amount will be debited directly from your account. They will also send you an email with the summary and the detailed bill. 

I find it particularly convenient when you go to a night out. Too often we take risk, drink and drive, so please be responsible and if you have been drinking more than you should, order a cab or go back home with a sober friend.

If you want to try it, use this promo code "lindaa171", and we will both get a 10$ free credit.

Shiseido Shimmering Cream Eye Color in #BE 204

When I'm in a hurry (or too lazy) to create an eyemakeup, I just swip a nice and shimmering cream shadow. Lately I have been into this light gold color shadow. It is very creamy and pigmented. The coverage is buildable, which means you apply it very lightly or add layers for a more opaque color. Best part is that no brush is needed and you can just use your finger to blend the shadow(s) because the texture is so easy to work with. Plus, you get 6 gr in pot, so I can also guarantee that even if you use it every single day, it will last you a very long time. 


Zara Home Pure Gardenia candle

I just don't want to let go of summer. Gardenia mixed to orange blossom, peach and coconut just helped postpone (or at least have the feeling) the fall season. I used this candle almost every  night. With a nice hot tea and a good book, it is my perfect nighttime setting.
