Boscia Japanese Favorites Set Review~!

Hey Guys~!

As a gift for myself, I bought this Boscia skin care set. I've never tried Boscia products, because they're really expensive, but this kit was priced nicely. Today I'll be reviewing all four products within the kit, and I'll say if I'd purchase the full size of the product. So let's start~~!

May Favorites 2016~!

Hey Guys~!

I am back in America~!! Two days ago was my birthday~!! Yesterday was prom~!! And today I have my monthly favorites~!! I have some new things to share with y'all, as well as announcing my posting schedule. Before we get into the favorites, let me say that starting today, I'll be posting on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and either on Saturday or Sunday. Alright, that's all I have left to say, so let's start~~!

Makeup

L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream

I ended up getting a bad sunburn while in China, and this worked so well at covering it up. It was a light texture, so it didn't irritate my skin. I talk about this product a lot, so I'm sorry if you are sick about hearing me praise this. 

February Favorites 2016~!

Hey Guys~!

It is that time of the month, the time when I share my monthly favorites~!! February has been insanely busy for me, finishing up school, finishing up my applications for college, and of course flying to China. For the next few months, my favorites posts won't be as long as they normally are, unless I do a haul sometime soon (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧ Anyways, it's time to share the monthly favorites. So let's start~~!

Makeup

L'Oreal Miss Manga Rock Mascara

This past month, I've just grown confident in my bare, makeup-less face. Except mascara is necessary. When I don't sleep well, it opens up my eyes. This mascara has been one of my favorites for a while, cause it does lengthen and volumize my lashes.

January Favorites 2016~!

Hey Guys~!

This month has been insanely busy for me, I've been packing for my semester abroad, taking my midyear exams, and sending out my college applications. Today I won't be thinking about any of that because today I'll be sharing my monthly favorites from January. A lot of these products are ones I've rediscovered when going through my makeup collection. So let's start~~!

Makeup

Covergirl and Olay Eye Rehab

This is an amazing under eye correcter. The color is a warm salmon tone, which is perfect for correcting blue hues. The formula is super light, so it feels like there is nothing under my eye when I wear it.

November Favorites 2015~!

Hey Guys~!

Sorry that this month I didn't post all that much. I had something planned to go up a few days ago, but my cat was sick and I had to take her to the vet. She's alright now, but last week I was busy taking care of her and going to the vet. Today I'll be sharing my monthly favorites with you from November. I have a variety of things to share with you all. So let's start~~!

Here's a picture of my cat for you guys <33

Empties / Products I've Run Out Of~!

Hey Guys~!

Sorry I haven't posted recently, I had a huge presentation for school and I'm finally done with that class~!! Since I've been trying so many new products, I have been using up a ton of different products. Today I'll be sharing some makeup, skin care, and hair care products that I've used up in the past few months. I will also include a mini review of each product in which I will say if I'd repurchase it or not. So let's start~~!

L'Oreal Magic Skin Beautifier B.B. Cream

For the past few months, I have worn B.B. cream as my face makeup. This is my favorite one from the drugstore, it matches my skin tone and wears nicely. I wrote a review on it a long time ago, when I first started my blog, and since I have repurchased it twice.

Glow All Year Round: Tips, Tricks, and a DIY {ft. ALOHA}~!

Hey Guys~!

We all like having a nice, healthy glow to our skin. I used to have a problem with my skin looking dull, but through a lot of trial and error, I have developed a few tips and tricks to achieve a natural glow. Today, with help from ALOHA, I'll be sharing those tips as well as a DIY with you guys. So let's start~~!

September Favorites 2015~!

Hey Guys~!

I have finished my first month of school. Only eight more months till I graduate~!! Anyway I have been busy and stressed out because of college applications, so doing my makeup, my skin care routine, and watching anime have been relaxing for me. Today I have some new products and things to share with you guys that I have been loving this month. So let's start~~!

Kiehl's Ultra Facial Overnight Hydrating Masque Review~!

Hey Guys~!

I am always trying out new skin care products, and recently while shopping at Bloomingdale's, I spotted this. Basically it's a face mask that you can leave on overnight. This intrigued me, as a lover of face masks, and I've tried nothing like this before. I've used Kiehl's products in the past, but only hair care. Today I'll be reviewing this face mask that claims to have hydrating properties. So let's start~~!

August Favorites 2015~!

Hey Guys~!

It's September, which means I am about to start school and that summer is almost over. I'm going to be starting my senior year of high school, so I have a lot going on. Because I've been so busy, I haven't been able to try a ton of new products, but I do have some makeup, skincare, accessories and anime favorites. So let's start~~!

L'Oreal Magic Beautifier B.B. Cream

{click here to read the review}

I haven't used this in a while, and now I don't know how I could live without this. The color matches my skin perfectly, which is hard for me. It feels really light on the skin and blends to a natural skin finish. 

City Color Sun Kissed Trio in Bronzed Peach

{click here to read the review}

This has been my favorite blush and highligher to use. I don't use the bronzer that much, but the other two products I've been wearing all the time. The highlighter isn't glittery, which I like, and the blush has a nice sheen. They look great together and bring life to my face. 

Korres Lip Butter in Pomegranate

{click here to read the review}

I've had dry lips recently, so this month I wore this over any lipsticks. It's moisturizing and offers great pigmentation. There are a variety of shades, but I love this coral pink color on my lips and skin tone. It really just goes with any look. 

★。、:*:。.:*:・’゜☆。.:*:★ Skincare ★。、:*:。.:*:・’゜☆。.:*:★

Lush Grease Lightning

While at my local Lush, the employee recommended me this product as a spot treatment. I noticed this working immediately. It has a gel texture that isn't drying like normal acne treatments are to my skin. Obviously it will work differently for everyone, so just ask for a sample to try.

Samantha Vega x Sailor Moon Luna Purse

{click here to read the review}

Ever since I got it, this has been my everyday purse. It goes with anything and everything, and I've gotten a ton of compliments on it. I assumed it would get damaged or scratched, but it's really durable. Now I want all the other colors that the purse comes in. 

★。、:*:。.:*:・’゜☆。.:*:★ Anime ★。、:*:。.:*:・’゜☆。.:*:★

Seraph of the End

This month I finished this anime, and it is now one of my top favorites. For me, vampire anime are a hit or a miss, and this is a definite hit. I love all the characters, but if I had to pick a favorite it would be Shinoa. She's adorable, we are the same height, we both can't drive, and we both want to be magical girls. Basically she's my future cosplay plan. 

I hope you guys enjoyed this past month's favorites~! This past month was insanely busy, but one of the best months ever. Alluring Alyss Beauty now has 100+ Lovelies and I never thought I'd be able to say that. I started this blog expecting no one to read it, and I can't thank all of you enough. You're all so sweet and hearing from you guys brightens my day. As a thank you, there will be a giveaway soon, so be on the look out for that. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

June Favorites 2015~!

Hey Guys~!

I am finally done with school~!! There were so many snow days that my last day was June 26th instead of June 20th. Now that I am finally on summer break I have more free time to take your requests for future tutorials and reviews, so leave your suggestions in the comments of this post. So let's start~~!

●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● Makeup ●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● 

Rimmel Stay Matte Mouse Foundation in Light Porcelain: I reviewed this a long time ago, and recently I've been mixing it with my moisturizer. I absolutely love how it looks on the skin, it appears really natural. Also it matches my skin tone perfectly.

Too Faced Matte Eyeshadow Palette: I've been using at least one eyeshadow in this palette every day of this month. My favorite color is the matte purple color, which is surprisingly wearable. I've been experimenting more with my eye makeup and that color in particular has helped.

L'Oreal Color Riche Eyeliner in White: For months I've been looking for a white eyeliner that is pigmented and long wearing. This one is great~! It's creamy and applies really nicely on my waterline. It hasn't irritated my eyes at all.

Benefit's BeneBalm: I have never been able to rock red lips, in my opinion. This is great for me, because it offers a red tint that I think looks really nice. It isn't super bold and I've gotten tons of compliments on my lips while wearing this. 

●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● Nail Polish ●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● 

Fire Fairy Nail Art: I am in love with this tutorial I did, {click here} if you want to know how I did it. This is honestly one of my favorite nail art designs I've ever done and I just love how it looks. I haven't done anything with rhinestones in years and now I remember how much I love them.

●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● Anime ●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● 

Kill la Kill: I finally started this anime, after hearing about it for months. I really am enjoying it so far, I'm eight episodes in, and I've found it to be a unique anime, compared to what I hear about and watch. I am watching the english dub, and I do find that the voices fit the characters nicely.

Sword Art Online II: I'm not a huge fan of the first season, so I gave the second one a try. I love the first arc of the second season, the Gun Gale Online arc, because of one of my new favorite anime characters, Sinon. I'll be talking more about her in a future 30 Day Anime Challenge post, so look out for that.

●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆●  Video Games / Apps ●☆● ☆● ☆● ☆● 

Line Play: This is such a great app for when you're bored. This game is like Sims, but so much cuter. You design your character, house, and play games to ear money. It would be fun to play with you guys, it's free, so if you make an account, it would be fun to play with you guys. My username is LolliGurlz, and just leave your username in the comments.

I hope you guys enjoyed this favorites post. Share some of your favorites from this past month in the comments below, I love to hear about what you guys are enjoying. Also if you have/make a Line Play account, leave your username in a comment so I can add you. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.

Empties/Products I've Run Out Of~!

Hey Guys~!

I haven't done one of these in forever, mainly because I've been trying so many new products that I haven't used up anything. Have you ever used a certain product or products every single day and then suddenly run out of them when you need them? Well that happened to me, so expect a haul sometime soon. Today I'll be sharing some of my empties, mostly makeup and some skin care, with you guys. So let's start~~!

We'll start with face makeup, and the only thing I have is the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer and I'm in the shade #15. I mentioned this in my Top Products Under $10 post, so check that out if you haven't yet. This is my favorite drugstore concealer, and I already bought a new one because I use this everyday.

Next is a cheek product, which I've mentioned before, and it is the NYX Cream Blush in Boho Chic. It may not look empty, but there is such a thin layer of blush in the pan that it's practically empty. I absolutely love this color, is very natural and blends nicely, so I do want to try some of the other shades too.

I have two eye products to share, and the first is the Elf Eyeshadow Primer in the color Sheer. I use this everyday, with any eyeshadow look. It prevents creasing of the shadows as well as evening out the color of my lids. I have been using this since I began wearing eye makeup, and it is the only primer I've ever used. It's only a dollar, so I don't mind repurchasing it.

The other eye product is my Anastasia Beverly Hill Brow Wiz in the color Soft Brown. I have probably owned this for a year and it is finally gone. I love this pencil, it's creamy and there is a large color selection, making it easy to find your perfect shade. Also I love the spooly brush at the end to comb out my brows.

Lastly for makeup, I have two lip products. It shouldn't come as a surprise that I've used one of these up, since I love them, Maybelline Baby Lips in Peppermint. I love using this as a base before any lip look, and I like the mint scent. Also it has SPF, so it will protect your lips, they need sun protection too.

My other lip product is something I've used in loads of tutorials and it has been in multiple favorites, it even has its own review. Did you guess what it is? The MUA Lip Stain in Rose~! I have been in love with this, and worn it almost everyday. The color really extenuates my natural lip color, and I love how long it lasts.

I only have one skin care item, and it is one of my favorite makeup wipes, Yesto Cucumbers. I got a 40 pack and I go through makeup wipes insanely quickly. Of course I use them to remove my makeup, but some mornings if I don't have time to wash my face I use these. They don't irritate my skin, which is great, and I always repurchase these.

I hope you guys enjoyed this empties post. I know I haven't done one of these in a while, but if you would like them more often, maybe once every three or four months, let me know in the comments below. Thank you guys so much for reading and I'll see you at my next post.
