Ju's October Favourites!*

Hi guys! 

So, since we left October and started a new month, we thought that would be nice if we told you our favourites of the month of OCTOBER!
As you know, we are two friends that love fashion and makeup, and bring new products to you, guys, so, I'm going to put my favourites and Dany is going to do the same thing. 
We have different categories and tell us if you want us to review any product mencioned here today!

So, let's get this show on the road!


1. BEAUTY FAVOURITES:

The first of my beauty favourites is not a first here on the blog. Is the BABY LIPS by MAYBELLINE. This baby is perfect to this cold weather because it gives your lips the full treatment they need. They stay flawless and soft. It is the perfect combination of lip balm and lipstick (because it has a hint of color in it) for this time of the year.



Baby Lips, in Pink Punch. You can find it in any supermarket.

My second favourite is also a lip product. It is from a not so known brand and it is a LIP GLOSS. It is from ISEREÉ and I love it because it is not sticky at all! It is a very nude lip gloss and it has one little secret: it smells and tastes like capuccino! How cool is that? In the cold weather, the taste of a warm capuccino in my lips is the high point of my day!

The third favourite of this category is a cheek product. A very well known one. The famous POSIETINT by BENEFIT. This is one of the sisters of BENETINT, but isteed of that rich red color, we have a very soft pink tone. The liquid texture and the stain power is perfect for the fall and winter because it stays more on the skin and moisturizes it. It is less dry than the powder blushes.

And the last, but not the least: a skin care product!
You have to remember: the skin is the base for all your makeup. If the base is ruined, you can't produce beautiful and inspiring looks. You have to take care of your skin, to stay young and beautiful. No makeup can beat a glowing, perfect skin! So, this is my current skin day cream. It is a DAY CARE CREAM (I have one for the night), by DIADERMINE. It prevents all sorts of problems that can appear in your face, gives some nice texture to the skin and it makes it glow! It is an all-in-one product and a winner for me!

2. CLOTHING FAVOURITES:

In the clothing section I have a special piece that I wanna show you. It is a midseason piece because you can wear it in the warm weather and in the cold weather. 
It is a BLAZER! Everyone should have a blazer because it is a basic. A blazer can be paired with a skirt, with jeans for a more relaxed look, with a dress, to create a dressy look. So many ways, so little time! I would recommend you to buy a black blazer as your first, because black goes on with everything! But this piece that I'm going to show you is different. It is all black but it has a print: some little white stars! How cute is that?! It is a simple but a bold piece at the same time. It was my most weared piece of the month! It is from PULL AND BEAR.

3. FAVOURITE ACCESSORIES:

My favourite accessory of the month is one that I thought I would not wear in this time of the year, but I did! Here where I live, the cold has arrived in a very strange way: the temperature droped very fast and we felt the cold in a very harsh way. So, I took my GLOVES out of the closet!
Yes, GLOVES! This babies will do wonderful things for your hands. The skin of your hands need some love too, and you should protect them from the cold and the wind. So, gloves are you're best friend!
Mine are from ACCESSORIZE, and are very cozy. They are blue and grey, with some hints of color on the top. Some bright colors to bring hapiness to your day!


Gloves by Accessorize. At Accesorize stores.


4. FAVOURITE MUSIC:

It is hard for me to pick a song for this month because I hear a lot of music, I'm always with my iPod. But since October is the Halloween month, I pick for my favourite music of October, "THIS IS HALLOWEEN" from the soundtrack of "NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS" by Tim Burton. 



5. FAVOURITE MOVIE:

As I said before, it is very hard to me to pick a movie for this month because I've seen almost 25 movies, just in October! But, there is one that stayed in my mind for a while and it is the new "SIN CITY: A DAME TO KILL FOR" by Frank Miller. It is the follow of the first SIN CITY movie, but, in my opinion, a lot better. It is a very caracteristic movie, all in black and white motion, has the first was.



6. FAVOURITE BOOK:

To me, is easy! I'm reading the GAME OF THRONES collection, by George R. R. Martin, and now I'm in the fourth book. So, my favourite book of October is the Game Of Thrones: A CLASH OF KINGS. In Portugal, the second book, in the american version, was divided in two books, the third and the fourth. Here, the fourth is o DESPERTAR DA MAGIA.


O Despertar da Magia: as Crónicas do Gelo e do Fogo, volume 4, by George R. R, Martin. At any book store.


7. RANDOM FAVOURITES:

At last, the final category! This is a random things category and today my random favourite of the month is an iPhone APP. It is a sleep app. It is called SLEEP BETTER and it helps you to scan and control how well you sleep.


I was very surprise with the habbilities of this app, and I use it every night to help me find out why I sleep better in some days than others. I recommend this app to all people who has trouble sleeping and don't know why! It is free at the Apple Store, but you can buy a more detailed app for 1,99€.


So, that is all for today!
