Here are some of my favorites for July. I enjoyed reading a lot of your favorites and now curious to try some of them. Yay for blogger influence! LOL
Dermablend Smooth Indulgence Foundation SPF 20
I don't think this foundation gets enough love for what it is. The packaging is extremely simple, unpretentious and really plain. But the foundation is the real star. I'd say this is a full coverage foundation with a very strong yellow undertone.
A lot of people with acne scarring swears by this foundation and while I do not have acne scars, I think it's a beautiful foundation for photos. It really matches my skin tone well because of the yellower tint. Since it's full coverage, this doubles as my concealer as well. I'm not even exaggerating by saying it has intense coverage.
I really love this foundation... it's so concentrated and you only need so little :) I use my fingers to apply it on and after I'm done, my fingers are sooo tinted LOL.
See what I mean? o_o....
Clinique Quick Eyes Cream Shadow in Sparkling Nude (01)
I got this awhile ago during one of Clinique's GWP promotions. I didn't much of it at first, but it's such a pretty cream shadow! It goes perfectly underneath any eyeshadow to intensify the color or to accentuate and brighten the eyes. Really pretty! I must look for other shades.
With NYX Jade e/s
NYX Eyeshadow Single in Jade
I won this e/s in Mishi a la Mode's giveaway and I've been hooked to this color eversince. I normally don't wear green eyeshadows but this one is SO pretty. It really is a true Jade color with silver shimmers in it.
MAC Pressed Blot Powder
Love this! This is the perfect topping over the Dermablend foundation :) It's simple and absorbs excess oil. I just use it in the morning and it'll last all day. I like that it's pretty translucent, but I'm sure any drugstore blotting powder will do ;)
Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm in Natural Mint
I read about these lip balms in SO many blogs and decided to try it out. Omg, it's really an understatement how much I like this stuff. It's balmy, minty and absorbs into your lips without that feeling of something sitting on top of it. It's also nice because of the SPF 25 in it :) I love love love lip balms and I will need to dedicate a whole post on my collection =p
Have you tried any of these products? :)

I am actually in the market for a new eyeshadow primer so this may be what I'll be trying next! I've tried several primers but none of them promise what they claim! Also, I love NYX eyshadow, it stays on and the colours are vibrant!
Thanks for sharing your favorites with us. I really wanted the Jack Black lip balm to work for me but I think I was allergic to the sunscreen. They smell amazing though. I also want to try the Blot powder sine it has so many positive reviews to stop the oils later in the day.
Great favorites, I especially like that foundation. It looks amazing!
Ohh! Jade is such a lovely color!!! I love MAC blot powder =] very mattifying!! Great post jen!
Great July favourites..:O
The Clinque cream shadows does an amazing job on amplifying the intensity of the NYX eyeshadow :O
The nyx eyeshadow is also a VERY beautiful colour!! Im going to go out & buy the Jack Black lip blam now XD just to see if it really works :D
I haven't tried any of them except for NYX which I adore. Such quality for such a price! :') The Clinique shadow looks very very pretty though!
Thanks for sharing! Now you are tempting me too! hahaha =P

miemiemie: The foundation is $30 for 1oz, sorry I didn't mention that! You can find it at Ulta, or online. At ACW Cosmetics, you can find similar ones for $10, :D That's probably a better deal but it's in a jar.
Your cat Bacon is so sweet, and what pretty eyes Bacon has too. Am loving the MAC product.
Reminds me to visit the MAC counter. Did some beauty supplies. Have a sweet day;-)
i really like the jade shadows and i've heard about the balm, too! it's just that it's so hard to look for sellers selling the good stuff here in my country D:
Lol! I love One Tree Hill :)
Did the MAC powder break you out at all? I want to try it but I'm scared of getting a bad break out :(
some lovely picks.. I haven't tried any of those products.. just if the clinique cream shadow creases? looks very pretty! you have such a cute cat!
Nice favorites you got there. I got a few of the NYX eyeshadows and their eyeshadows are pretty pigmented and reasonable. I can't get enough of NYX stuff too. Hopefully my NYX collection will continue to grow.
ive been wanting to get dermablend for so long! i hear it works great as a concealer since its so thick.
ohhh that foundation blends crazy well.. it like totally disappears into your skin and looks so flawless!! i will def have to try that.. the NYX jade color is SOOO PRETTY!!!
your cat is so adorbs :)!!!
haha i'm setting into texas ok.. it's HOT i miss the bay area weather.. i can't believe i'm only going to be here for about 2 more months :p
I love that NYX color. It really is so pretty! :) Awwww your cat Bacon is adorable. And thank you for the compliment on my hair. Sometimes it's more of a nuisance, lol
i love all these favourites. i really want to try that dermablend foundation i heard it covers really well
heard so many things about jack black lip balm. i should run to sephora and grab one now. bacon is so photogenic.
Great favs! I love the JB lip balm as well! :D
I want to give the Derma Blend foundation a try as well!
Thanks for sharing! NYX jade is so pretty! I want to try that! That lip balm looks awesome! I never used a lip balm with that high SPF! I need it!
I'm glad JB lip balm works well for you. I've tried it before but I have a severe allergic reaction to it. Bacon is a cutie!
waa the foundation looks super thick. I have yet to try dermablend! Have heard so many good things about it ;) I like your favourites. They are all different brands and serve different purposes!
I love NYX!! It's such a great brand! I'm supposed to get a haul that I order from NYX today and I'm super excited! It didn't buy any single e/s but I did buy the purple smokey eye palette, that I can't wait to try!
