Can you believe tomorrow is October? I feel like we all say that every month but as the years go by, it seems time flies by faster each season. In honor of what I mark as the real start of fall – the start of the fourth quarter – here are some fun updates from around the web:
As always, I am thrilled to be on Meg’s blog this month again. This time, the group of beauty bloggers is sharing their must-haves for taking care of our faces. Check out all the items here.
Through today, take an extra 25% off Neiman Marcus‘ sale items.
And loads of items were recently added to Shopbop‘s sale. Time to stock up on fall goodies! Need some shopping ideas? Look no further than my September favorites here:
I’ve been so focused on luxe products lately that I decided it was time to revisit some of my budget favorites. I scoured the aisles of my local CVS and found some winners I’d love to share with you. Can you possible imagine a better thing than a beauty buy that works and is at a friendly price-point? I think not…
My skin is irritatingly dry this summer. I am not sure if it is the air conditioning or just the fact that we have had a bit of drier weather lately. Either way, I am trying to remember to slather on lotion day and night. Curel Daily Moisture Original Lotion for Dry Skin certainly doesn’t feel like budget. The formula is rich but still absorbs quickly. And this dermatologist backed line is clinical proven. Plus the straightforward formulation keeps my skin from getting irritated.
The shape might be wacky but it works. NYX The Curve Felt Tip Eye Liner is ergonomically designed for a steady, even application. The formula is a balance: quick drying but nimble and water resistant. Are you a liquid liner beginner? Look no further than this unique low-commitment drugstore version.
The new Reach Complete Care Triple Angle Floss Soft Toothbrush got me to stop reaching for my beloved electric toothbrush. Why you ask? I am hooked on the angled bristles and the way they get my teeth feeling ultra-clean without irritating my gums. And after some research, I am convinced that tongue cleaning is an integral part of tooth care and keeps my breath smelling great (there is a built-in cleaner on the back of the brush). Strange, I know. But try it! World of difference.

Happy Labor Day! Speaking of work holidays, tomorrow marks a very special day for me! I’ll be starting a new full-time job in the AM. But don’t worry – Belle Belle Beauty isn’t going anywhere. In fact, I look forward to sharing a work-friendly beauty routine and more about what I am doing in skin care on a regular basis. But I will also continue to share new favorite products. Make sure to tune in tomorrow for my new favorite skin care product – it is the BOMB. In the meantime, some of my favorite finds from my little online shopping addition from August:
Hope everyone is having a perfect pre-Holiday week. I am laying majorly low after all the birthday celebrations, taking a stay-cation of sorts. I have been chowing down on all the amazing summer produce (you know how I love beauty from the inside out!) and planning a fun menu for friends on Friday afternoon. While I haven’t been trolling the web a ton, I did have some favorites to share:
After such a long break from blogging, figured I’d give you a double dose today. Just to let you know some other tidbits that I’ve been up to. First, check out my June column for Oklahoma Magazine. You can read the whole issue here.
And some of my favorites from around the web over the last couple weeks:
Well, we’ve hit the 90s over the last couple weeks down here in Oklahoma and pool season has officially begun. Here are some of my favorite summer beauty buys I’ve discovered over the last couple of weeks:
Dior Iconic Overcurl Mascara: this curved brush gets the “wide open” look that really awakens my complexion and I never have had any smudging and flaking, even with the non-waterproof formula
bliss fat girl slim arm candy: not only does this firm arms but eliminates redness making sure I’m ready for “sleeveless” season and I love the massaging dispenser for a little mini-spa moment
Brazilian Blowout Acai Deep Conditioning Masque: even though I have fine hair, I’ve discovered my dry ends really crave moisture and this mask does just that without weighing strands down (not to mention, I love the beachy scent)
Dior Addict Fluid Stick in Kiss Me: the gloss/lipstick hybrids that have been all the craze lately can sometime be drying on me, but this beautiful and feminine nude keeps my lips moisturized
Weleda Skin Food: even with the more humid weather, my skin remains dry and this rich and natural moisturizer doesn’t clog my pores, plus I love the herbal scent
