Hey guys! After nearly a year, I decided to bring back monthly favorites. Admittedly, a huge part of that is because this month had some outstanding favorites for me and I really, really wanted to share them with you guys. For the most part, this has been new to me products, but there are a couple of old favorites in here as well. I'd love it if you'd let me know if Favorites posts are something that you guys really like in the comments,  because some months I know I'll be excited to do them and others I know I'll feel like they're a bit of a chore, but I'm happy to do them if they're something you guys like!

Keep reading to check out what I'm currently obsessed with... because that really is the state of this month's favorites!

It's been a while since I've done a What's In My Travel Bag post... because I haven't actually travelled anywhere out of province in nearly a year now. Admittedly, I'm not the biggest traveller and I'd pretty much always prefer to be within a half hour commute of my bed. Maybe an hour, but I tend to get cranky. I swear, I want to see more of the world, but so much of it is just so far from my cocoon. Anyway, me and my boyfriend are headed out to spend a week with some of his family out in the Okanagan, so it was time to pack up a bag and it seemed like a good time to let you guys know what I'm taking out there with me! I tried not to overpack this time, because I pretty much always plan for the makeup apocalypse when I go on a trip, and I think I did pretty well!

If you want to know what made the travel cut, keep reading!

I swear, every time I look at products from Paul & Joe, I am taken by their packaging. I feel like they've hit a kind of sweet spot where it's cute and super girly, but in a way that's just cheeky enough to keep it from being saccharine. Does this make any sense? This is how my brain works. Anyway, because I can't actually find the brand locally, I hadn't ever gotten my hands on any of their products until I recently got the chance to check out a couple of products from the Paul & Joe Daydream Believer Collection for Summer 2017.

In 2017, there really has been no brand that has been more hyped than the highly affordable The Ordinary, from Deciem. Everyone is talking about the brand (including me) and new releases are selling like hotcakes. A while ago I managed to get my hands on the two primers that they released and I'm really happy to share them with you guys today! Also, if you're as hyped about about the new The Ordinary Colours Foundations as basically everyone seems to be, keep an eye out - I ordered both types the day they launched and I'm just waiting for them to arrive to me!

Anyway, for more about these primers, keep reading!

I have to tell you guys, as soon as I saw pictures of the new mark. Colour Collection products online, I absolutely wanted to try them. I mean, not even going to lie, the packaging is kind of amazing, right? I love how modern and young it looks and I really feel like more and more people are going to start taking notice of mark. because of the branding and package design that they have on their products. BUT how's the formula?

I feel like seasonal wish lists might be a thing I start to do here on the blog more consistently. I really love looking through what's new or up and coming in the beauty world each season and putting together a list of what I want and why I want it. This wishlist is a little bit different from some of my other wishlists, because I decided to include skin care products that I'm lusting after as well.

So without too much more rambling, keep reading to take a look at what I'm lusting after!
