July favorites.

Lush's Cup O' Coffee Face and Body Mask
I forgot who recommended this to me, but I decided to try it on a whim and now use it every morning after cleansing my face. My skin is just so much more radiant and glowy after every use and I've noticed my skin tone is more even and my face is overall softer. It's a great mask to use to wake me up in the morning and I am so glad I discovered it.


Lush's Mask of Magnaminty Face and Body Mask
My sister has been using this for a while and swears by it so I decided to give it a shot. I bought the self preserving kind so I don't have to refrigerate it and I use it two or three times a week honestly. Whenever I am in the bath or my skin is particularly broken out, I later this on my face and let it work its magic. The mint in the formula causes my face to tingle and it smells incredible. This is probably my favorite mask I have ever used at Lush.

NYX Hot Singles Eyeshadow in Sin
I tend to use relatively light and shimmery eyeshadow on my eyes because I am not good at apply really intense eyeshadow. I picked this one up at Ulta when my favorite shade in one of my palettes shattered. The formula is amazing, the product is super pigmented, really easy and smooth to apply and lasts all day. It's a super subtle pink that suits my eye color really well. I plan to pick up more in the future!

Wildflower by Drew Barrymore
I took up reading this summer because I have a lot of time on my hands since returning from England and this one has been on my list for a long time. I only read non-fiction books for the most part and particularly love reading biographies. I have loved Drew Barrymore for years and this book gave some great insight on her life. It was relatively easy to read, I finished it in about week after reading it for about an hour a day. The book is not in chronological order of her life, but are short stories from her life that all have an ending theme or moral at the end. Her life has been really publicized since she was a child and she had the option to make this book rather dark, but decided to focus on the good things in her life which made this book really uplifting. 

131 by Emarosa
I didn't hop on the Emarosa bandwagon until now and I really regret it. This new album from them is incredible and I haven't been able to stop listening to it. The writing is incredible and the vocals are out of this world. I am shooting Warped Tour in a few weeks and am getting prepped by listening to a bunch of artists that are on the tour. Emarosa is really one-of-a-kind and I cannot wait to shoot their set in a few weeks.
Listen to: Porcelain, Hurt and Young Lonely

Backbone by ROAM
I met these guys back in May and they were super cool to chat with and photograph. I had heard of them by that point, but hadn't listened to their music and this is just a good pop punk album. I have become immersed in the pop punk scene over the past few months and am always looking for new bands to listen to. The songwriting and overall production of this album are incredible and really make this a great album to listen to while I am driving in the car and getting ready for the day. 
Listen to: Deadweight, Tracks and Goodbyes.

Hope all is well.
Just love me:
