Monthly Favorites - April 2025

It has been so long since I have done a monthly favorites post and I find myself to be more in my element with bringing them back. Favorites posts have always been something I not only enjoy putting together, but also reading on other blogs.

Phlur Vanilla Skin Fragrance Mist

Vanilla is my top choice for scents. I know I'm not alone in that based solely on the sheer amount of vanilla based scents on the market. I love how different they range in notes and I have quite a few in my collection. I'm a fragrance rotator and very rarely use the same one for too long before switching it up. I have not owned this one very long, but it's earned it's spot on my vanity and in my heart. This one keeps me coming back. Vanilla Skin is not a complex vanilla, but more of a pure and delicate sweetness that excels throughout application until it slowly fades. 


Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink Crayon in Lead the Way 
 
If you read my last blog post, you'll see swatches of this. It's a great pink for spring! The 8+ hour longevity holds up for work days or errands and whatever life throws at you. Perfect for those lazy when it comes to having to reapply anything like myself. I'll do anything to avoid! 

Kosas Plump and Juicy Spray Serum 
 
Speaking of lazy, I jumped on this spray serum. Just spray and that's it! It has collagen, hyaluronic acid, and peptides. My sensitive skin doesn't mind it, my sensitive nose does a bit. The scent is a little strong, but it's not lasting. A great dose of hydration to prep skin before makeup or other skincare. 

Urban Decay Naked Palette (Reissued Version) 
 
Anyone that's been around this space for a while knows my love of the original Naked palette and how for years I have lamented it being ripped away, so it should come as no surprise that I clicked "add to cart" in the blink of an eye the minute it became available again. I'm so happy! Now if Urban Decay would listen to me and bring back the Stray Dog 24/7 eyeliner. I've been looking for a dupe for ages, but it was the best taupe liner out there. 

Lawless Forget the Filler Perfecting Cream 
 
A moisturizer and makeup primer in one! I use this after the Kosas serum currently and it is a pretty good duo that is dry skin friendly. It's also a good choice for mature skin with peptides aiming at wrinkle reduction and increasing skin elasticity. It makes for a nice base for makeup, layering well with every formula I've tried. 
 
What were your favorites from this month? I'd love to hear what you have been enjoying!
