New in Beauty June Favourites
The moment when you realize one of the palettes you just opened for the first time and fell in love with is DISCONTINUED!?! Yeah, that’s what happened when I was linking products and found out Urban Decay’s Naked Smoky palette is not longer with us…. much like Geoffrey the giraffe from Toy’R’Us (RIP x 2). With that said, get ready with me while I do my everyday makeup using new-in products and one discontinued favourite (RIP Urban Decay Smoky palette). Get ready with me with new in beauty June Favourites.

THE PRODUCTS
Below is a breakdown of all the makeup products that I loved this month / used in this YouTube video. For a more in depth review of everything I suggest tuning into the video above. For little anecdotes and links to the products, keep scrolling for the details.

SKIN PREP & COVERAGE
It’s wild to think about how long I’ve been using Smashbox’s Photo Finish Primer. The earliest I can recall is sometime in 2007ish when I was in university and deeply into my punk makeup phase. Back then it came in a fancy little glass bottle that I would use SPARINGLY. The devastation I felt when I accidently dropped it on my tiled floor and it smashed into bits. Let’s all be grateful it’s in a squeeze tube now!

EYES
Still feeling silly about my snafu of using a discontinued palette. Even though the Urban Decay Naked Smoky palette is no more, I’m sure there must be something similar on the market.
HOURGLASS
MAYBELLINE Total Temptation Eyeshadow + Highlighter Palette
URBAN DECAY Naked Smoky (RIP discontinued)
DHC Virgin Olive Oil Swabs
DIORSHOW
BAREMINERALS Lashtopia Mascara

BLUSH / BRONZER / HIGHLIGHTER
Sadly since originally posting this, Urban Decay has now discontinued their Afterglow Blush line which, in my opinion, was a huge mistake. The pigmentation on these blushes was phenomenal.
URBAN DECAY Afterglow Blush in Score – discontinued
TOM FORD
COVERGIRL Vitalist Healthy Glow Highlighter
DERMABLEND Glow Creator Liquid Highlighter
NARS Highlighting Cheek Palette
LIPS
Buxom lipsticks continue to rank high on my list of favourite formulas. They’re both nourishing and pigmented while coming in a great selection of colours.
BUXOM Va-Va-PLUMP Shiny Liquid Lipstick in Heat Wave
NAILS
Baby blue nail polish is essentially a neutral for me. Ever since the late 90s / early 2000s, this light shade of blue has held me hostage. I’m more than okay with that. JinSoon always has the EXACT shades of nail polish I’m looking for too.
JINSOON Aero Polish
