Fab Five Friday: 10.30.2015


Here it is hunties...  The five most used products that kept Ms. Faux from lookin' a fool.



 What is it?  According to Sephora.com...

What it is:
A mild facial cleanser to promote clean, healthy-looking, luminous skin. 

What it is formulated to do:
Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser eliminates impurities and excess oil from skin without causing irritation. Formulated with coconut and fatty acids to protect skin balance and radiance, this lightweight, refreshing lather rinses away easily with cool water and protects skin from the drying effects of hard water. 

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Phthalates 

What else you need to know:
This dermatologist tested, noncomedogenic formula is as gentle as cleansing milk and as purifying as soap. It brings out the best and the brightest in all types of complexions, but is ideal for normal to combination skin.

What does Ms. Faux think?

This is the gentlest of cleansers that helps Ms. Faux's skin in times of stress without stripping it.  As winter rolls around that is incredibly important as you want to keep what moisture you got in your skin there.  I love this cleanser.  It is a bit pricey, but well worth it.  I would spend more for skincare rather than make-up any day of the week.




What is it?  According to Walgreens.com...

All-in-One Skin Beautifier
  • Helps Prime & Moisturize Skin
  • Helps Enhance Skin
  • Paraben & Fragrance Free
Apply a dime sized amount of BB Cream to skin.  May be worn alone or under powder.  For best results finish with L.A. Girl Pro Setting Powder.
What does Ms. Faux think?

Proof of my earlier statement.  I would spend more on skin care than make-up.  Well this comes with a bit of a twist... this BB Cream performs as good if not better than some of my higher end foundations.  Not kidding.  There is some limitation to their color range, but if you can find a color that suits I say get your butt to a drug store and buy this.

Now I want to give a disclaimer... I did have to go online to Walgreens.com to order this online.  I searched high and low and Walgreens did carry it in Chicago at one time, but seemingly no more.  However with over $35 spent they will ship for free.  That is easy for Ms. Faux because I can easily go on the Walgreens website and spend $35 easily.  I mean... a pack of razors.  Also if you really like this get two or three when you order.  I switch around quite a bit so I only got one, but seriously next time I order I'm getting another as my go to for my gym bag.

Also... check back later today as Ms. Faux did a L.A. Girl haul that she is gonna review.



What is it?  According to MACcosmetics.com...

The highly popular Patentpolish Lip Pencil returns as your go-to magic wand for high-impact lips.  With a single swipe imbuing the ultimate high-gloss shine.  

Enjoy colour in an expanded range of 14 shades.  This sleek, all-in-one tool offers the comfort of a balm, the colour and sheen of a gloss and the precision of a lip pencil.  

With an effortless twist-up applicator, you'll never have to sharpen.


What does Ms. Faux think?

I.  Am.  In.  Love.  This is Ms. Faux's favorite formulation of lip product.  I generally go to a gloss because I love a high shine, but I like the staying power of a lipstick.  I also love pencils because they provide easy swipes.  Also... they have an amazing color range though I do think French Kiss is the best.  Such a gorgeous nude.

That being said here are my gripes with MAC's statement above.  "Imbuing?"  Seriously?  Who are you J. Peterman.


Seriously... that is my only gripe and I actually think it is hilarious.



What is it?  According to Ulta.com...

Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara from Maybelline New York is the first patented fanning brush with 10 layers of bristles to reveal a full flourish of lashes. Liquid Ink formula coats from all sides for a sensational full fan effect.

What does Ms. Faux think?

This mascara is a favorite right now and does what it says.  One think I hate about mascaras are that they are clumpy.  Ms. Faux has long lashes, but not a ton of them.  Also certainly not too little of them either.  This lifts, separates, lengthens and volumizes.  Seriously is is the greatest foundation and does create a fan effect.  Go.  Get.  This.  Now.



What is it?  According to Walgreens.com...

Stylish, New Fabric-Inspired Special Effects
  • Plush, Velvet Look
  • Easy to Apply
  • 8 Stylish Limited Edition Shades
No messy or loose powder necessary to create the lush velvet-like finish you've always wanted!  Just two coats is all you need for a sophisticated look.
What does Ms. Faux think?

I am not a fan of the matte look.  Lipsticks, nail polishes, foundations, etc...  As a matter of fact for foundation I use matte formulas mainly in the summer because Ms. Faux sweats a lot and it tends to counteract that.  Lips I find it too drying and fingernails... well I just don't get it.  That is until I saw this color from Sally Hansen.  It is called lavish and it certainly is.  Such a gorgeous fall color and it looks so expensive and lush.  I just love it.

So there you go.  Ms. Faux's Fab Five Friday.  Stay tunes because later today I'm rolling out my review on my L.A. Girl Cosmetics haul.
