Beauty Faves: August Edition

Hey guys,  I'm excited to tell ya'll about my current beauty faves today on SS.  I know it's been a while since I last did a review like this, but better late than never!

1.  Valentia Even Glow Vitamin C Serum ($35):  This product is AH-MA-ZING!  It's actually the best vitamin C serum I've ever used.  I noticed a BIG difference overnight; my skin was super soft and had a radiant glow. I always used Lumene's serum, but I've officially converted.  Valentia's serum also has a thicker consistency, which I LOVE.  OH, and bonus points for the incredible smell - delicious oranges FTW!  

 2.  Lush Oatifix Face Mask ($6.95 for 2.1 oz) - Love, love, LOVE this mask.  This soothing banana mask smells magical, and leaves skin super hydrated.  I can't wait to go back and get a different one - I really want to try Catastrophe Cosmetic!  Btw, this was my FIRST Lush experience - pricy but worth it in my opinion.  $7 for 4-6 masks is expensive for sure, but I'm willing to drop moolah on sweet skincare!  

3.  Shiseido Bio-Performance Super Corrective Serum ($80) - Yeah, so I may or may not have a serious obsession with serums.  Whatever, don't judge me! *grins* this item does wonder for my skin's elasticity.  My skin felt substantially firmer!  I'm a fan for sure.  OH, and I have the price written as $80 because that's what it sells for on the Shiseido site, but I purchase mine at Costco. They sell a ton of fancy schmancy cosmetics online for MUCH less.  I got my serum for $60 HERE! YAYZORS.

The High Neck LBD

YAY!  Time for more Talulah.  If you missed my first collab with them, no worries - just clicky HERE.  Anywho, for today's post I've featured their "Day of Disco" LBD.  It's a stretch ponte mini dress with a high neck and gold sequin velvet cross over back.  Although it's fitted, it's mad comfy and figure-flattering.

Here's a shot of the sequin back!  Such gorgeous detailing.  If you're interested in purchasing this baby make sure to clicky HERE.  Heads up, it's on the pricy side so it'll be a splurge.

I accessorized with a fierce chain statement necklace and carried an edgy clutch.  It doesn't get much more BAMF than that, ha!  OH, and in case you guys missed my Accessory Concierge sponsor spotlight, clicky HERE.  You'll see some seriously awesome jewelry, foshizzles.

A closer look at my statement necklace.  I actually featured it a while back for a more casual look.  Clicky HERE if you'd like to see...

I don't know if you guys remember, but I featured them HERE a while back!  This fab bracelet is part of their new Fall collection.  Isn't it absolutely stunning?...AND it only costs $28.  I say "only" because it seriously looks like a designer piece.  They're not playin' around - their quality is ridonkulous!

OH, and make sure to shop their necklace selection.  They have PAGESSSSS of unique pieces available.  We're talking about serious jewelry porn, ha!  BTW, I actually own one of the items pictured below (top line, second one to the left).  I styled it HERE back in the day...

Anywho, I usually post my favorite sponsor picks for you guys, but it's just too hard for me to choose.  I sucked it up though and found totally fab earrings for ya'll. Yeah, you're welcome in advance *grins*
