My Everyday Makeup Basket & Swatches for September 2013: FACE PRODUCTS!

I decided to include my elf tinted moisturizer to use it up, and because it's a little dark, it's the perfect time to do so! My Covergirl foundation is a god-send! Shocking because the last Covergirl foundation I used (Clean foundation for normal skin) was absolutely horrendous! I keep this new one with me at all times, plus it has SPF! My Some Kinda Gorgeous by Benefit is another product I'm trying to use up. It's also a tad bit dark so summer is basically the only time I get use out of it. Hard Candy Glamoflauge is amazing at highlighting under my eyes. A little bit goes such a long way... I don't know if I'll ever use this guy up! Lastly, I'm trying to get more use out of my Rimmel "Stay Matte" powder. I usually don't remember to powder, and I only really need to in August, September, October, April, and May (for school). During the other months, it's not hot so my makeup doesn't slide off my face. Enjoy the pictures below! :)


All of the face products!

Overview/Review: LUSH Products I Have Tried So Far!

Fizzbanger
Fizzbanger Bath Bomb: $5.95
I love the smell of this (apple and spice, not too strong) and you can chop it up and get more use out of it! I don't feel the need to always have a bath bomb with me, but I will definitely repurchase when I want to splurge on some bath products!

Snake Oil Scalp Treatment Bar: $7.95
This is the best, most useful product I have bought from LUSH so far. You rub this in your hand to get oil (I typically use a lighter to speed up the product) and rub it through your scalp. Then you wait 20 minutes and wash your hair. This is perfect for my dry, rough scalp and you don't need much product each time you use it. 

Stepping Stone- $3.95
This was a huge disappointment. When you buy it, it looks like a foot shaped pumice stone. The first time I used this on my wet feet, half of the product crumbled into the water. I read and re-read the directions- I was doing it right the whole time, but it just kept crumbling. It made me mad because it kept wasting product. Now, it looks like the photo above and is unusable.
