My Beauty Picks from Allure Best of Beauty 2017

Fall is officially here and there is so much to look forward in fashion and in beauty.
On the beauty front, Allure published their Best of Beauty 2017 awards. Being the product junkie that I am, I couldn’t wait to pick up the magazine, so I started browsing the award list online, from 2016 & 2017. Below, I have compiled a short list based on price, the Allure review and if I need I will actually put the item to regular use.

Travel Size Beauty Buys

I already have an array of fill-able travel size bottles, but when traveling I want to use a few amount of products that will soothe and hydrate my skin.

Caudalie Beauty Eixir has been on my must try list for sometime. I tested it out at Sephora and instantly felt awake, so I thought this would be great to have on a flight to combat my skin drying out. This was on offer and I picked up other minis by this brand.

Water activities and heavy sun exposure dry out the skin and I thought for my evening shower, I would use L’Occitane Almond Shower Oil. This product will replenish my skin and skip packing more body lotion.

Cetaphil is my everyday cleanser and they make great travel sizes item that are easily re-fill-able. I would also note that with this brand in particular a little goes a long way.

Lush Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner– This shower lotion works to restore your skins moisture before leaving the shower you wash it off and are left with supple skin.

Tiny Minis:

Clarins One-Step Gentle Exfoliating Cleanser with Orange Extract– I plan on using this if my face gets flaky from the sun or too oily, it will bring back balance.

Korres Wild Rose Refining Buffer Cleanser– This all natural skin care brand will be used in the morning to awaken the skin and add radiance.
