June Favorites 2014~!

Hey Guys~!

June just ended, so now it's time for when I show you my favorites from the past month. Last month was pretty busy for me, I had exams and many other things going on. For this favorites post, I have a lot of new makeup items and anime to talk about along with some fashion pieces too. As usual, I'll be starting with makeup products, so let's start~~!


★·.·´¯`·.·★  Makeup ★·.·´¯`·.·★
Pürminerals Mineral Makeup {Porcelain}: This month I've been wearing very minimal makeup. This powder foundation is great for that cause it has build-able coverage and a natural finish. I also like it cause it has SPF 15, which is important to have in the summer.
Almay Wake Up Eye Concealer: I'm always looking for new concealers, and this one is pretty good. It has a yellow tone, so it covers up my dark circles with ease and it feels really light on my skin. But because of the yellow tone, I have to wear either foundation or B.B. Cream over it.
L'Oreal Miss Manga Mascara: I've really enjoyed this mascara. It creates big dolly lashes which is great if you like bold lashes for everyday or for cosplay makeup. I recently found that they made a waterproof formula so I'm going to try to get that soon.
Maybelline Color Tattoo Metals {Barely Branded}: I know I've mentioned this in a lot of favorites, but it really is great. It's a champagne colored cream eyeshadow which is great as an all over eye look. I used it in my first makeup tutorial, {click here} to watch it.
Maybelline Define-A-Brow Pencil {Medium Brown}: With wearing minimal makeup, I felt like doing my brows was a good idea. So I started filling them lightly in with this brow pencil. It matches them perfectly and looks natural too.
Revlon Lip Butter {Strawberry Shortcake}: I've gotten back into using these and this color is the one I reached for the most. It's a light pink and looks really simple and cute on. Not matter what makeup I wore, this looked nice and completed the look.


★·.·´¯`·.·★  Nail Polish ★·.·´¯`·.·★
Wet and Wild {I Need a Refresh Mint}: I really like both the color and the formulation of this polish. It's a teal color, which is really pretty looking on any complexion. Also it lasts a pretty long time without chipping a ton.
Revlon Color Stay {Porcelain}: This polish is a really natural cream colored one. It's great for when I don't want to wear a bold color, or for a french manicure. The formula is really long lasting too, so it doesn't chip a lot either.


★·.·´¯`·.·★  Fashion and Accessories ★·.·´¯`·.·★
Forever21 High Waisted Shorts: I've always wanted my own pair of high waisted shorts. So I recently got these at Forever21. They're slightly distressed, so they're very casual. I've worn them a ton and now I'm looking for a non-distressed pair that I can wear for more formal outfits.
Betsy Johnson Handbag: I am a huge fan of Betsy Johnson. But I don't own much except for this bag. It's super cute with this pattern that has great colors for summer. I love wearing this when I'm wearing a very plain outfit cause this adds a pop of color to it.
Pink and Black Compact Mirror: In my makeup tutorial I used this mirror and I've been carry it around in my bag recently. It's a pale pink with black polka dots and a black bow. It has a large mirror and a little pocket inside. I'm sorry I have no idea where to get this, so I'm sorry if you want to get one of these for yourself.


★·.·´¯`·.·★  Anime ★·.·´¯`·.·★
 
Golden Time: I just finished this anime and I loved it. The plot sounds generic, but the relationships between the characters are very well done. The last four episodes put me in an emotional roller coaster, but the ending was perfect. If you like romantic comedies with some drama, this one is perfect for you. 
Is This a Zombie? Doesn't the title just make you want to watch it? Yes, I'm starting to get into the zombie craze. I just started the Walking Dead, but before that I checked out this anime. At first I was expecting this to be gory and horror, but I was surprised by the set up. It's a comedic take on a zombie story and I'm going to start the second season soon.


★·.·´¯`·.·★  Movie ★·.·´¯`·.·★
 
Maleficent: My friend and I just saw this a few days ago, and I was really impressed with this movie. The trailer looked nice, but I was worried it wouldn't be good. The movie was visually beautiful to watch and unlike the Disney movie, Sleeping Beauty, this one allowed you to see a different side to the story.

Those were my favorites from this past month. In the comments, tell me what some of your favorite products or anime were from June. I'd like to hear about them. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.
