Another year has gone by, and with it another slew of new beauty tries and buys. As I sit here and reflect on my favorite products from the last year, I thought I would share them with you. Most of these are old favorites, but some are new, because here's the thing about skincare and me... when I find something I like, I stick with it. My skin is way too fussy to try all the new products that are sent to me for promotional purposes, so I rarely try something skincare related just because it was sent. Instead, all of these are products that I have genuinely sought out and loved to death. These are my dearest and most used products from 2014 and before. If I was going to be stuck on a deserted island, or say, stuck in Tennessee for 2-3 months without warning (thanks, back), these are the skincare products I would like to have with me.
Cleanser: Eve Lom Cleanser. I had two really big cleanser loves this year, and they were the Eve Lom cleanser and the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish. The Liz Earle absolutely stole my heart for a good long while, and pulled me away from the Eve Lom with a huge tug, but in the end I went back to Eve Lom. Here's the thing. I actually like the application, texture, and the scent of the Liz Earle more, but after a few months of using it, it started to break me out. I went to Space N.K. and asked the girl her advice, and she recommended moving back to Eve Lom, so I did, and my skin cleared up. Now, this isn't to say that the Liz Earle isn't an amazing cleanser, it might be that my skin got used to it and that I need to alternate between the two. Currently, in TN, I am using Eve Lom, and I bought my mom her own jar, which she is loving. I have a dedicated review on the Eve Lom Cleanser here, and the Liz Earle Cleanser here.
Toner: Cane & Austin Retexturizing Treatment Pads. These babies are incredible. I have other acidic toners, including Alpha-H's Liquid Gold and Pixi Glow Tonic, but I love the tingle and packaging of the Cane & Austin ones. They are easy to travel with because they are way less likely to spill as opposed to bottle toners, and BONUS, the top is reflective and doubles as a laser beam for Pinecone when the light bounces off of it. The brand makes a stronger version that the loveliest sales associate at Space N.K. gave me to try but I haven't yet because they are in LA and I am... well, in bed. In TN. With a broke-ass back. Literally. At $1 a pad, I would say these are on the pricier end but think of them as a chemical peel... much cheaper than getting a treatment at the spa. I love these pads so much that I have a dedicated review of them here.
Exfoliator: Pevonia Enzymo-Spherides Peeling Cream. This is another product that I have used for quite literally years, and I swear to you guys... every single time I use this I notice a difference. I have a makeup artist that I work with quite regularly, and he now requests that I use this the night before working with him, as he can notice a tremendous difference in my skin when I use it. The way it works is that it is an enzyme exfoliator, meaning it doesn't have little balls that rub your skin, instead, it has Pineapple and Papaya enzymes that slowly eat away at your dead skin cells, working to eliminate impurities and blackheads and giving you healthier skin overall. This stuff is gold.
Serum: I have two serum loves, an old one and a new one. The old fav is the Kiehl's Midnight Recovery Concentrate, which I have a review on here. It's the most lovely overnight elixir with tons of good stuff to help hydrate your skin whilst you sleep. I love this so much that I bought my mom one for Christmas this year, and she loved it. She had tried it once before, a few summers back, and enjoyed it, but never took the plunge to buy one for herself, so I took it upon myself to do it for her, and her skin is looking mighty fine.
The new favorite is the SkinCeuticals Phyto Corrective Gel. I bought this after a lady used it on me during a facial, and I immediately loved the texture and look of it. The product is a bright green color which helps combat redness or sensitivity in your skin, which I rather love. It looks terrifying in the bottle but once it's on your skin it blends in perfectly. It's an ultra gentle formula that is oil-free and suitable for all skin types, especially acne-prone or sensitive. It's meant to make your skin clearer, brighter, and more radiant with regular use. I can do a full review of this if you guys would like!
I've been using both of these serums regularly, alternating days or using the Skinceuticals in the morning and the Kiehl's at night, and I can definitely say that I recommend both.
Moisturizer: This one is super easy, as I have been obsessed with my Pevonia Myoxy-Caviar Timeless Repair Cream for years. Literally, years. It was once used on me during a facial many moons ago, and I instantly fell in love with the scent, the texture, everything. *Sigh* This stuff is crazy expensive and sometimes I question repurchasing it for that reason alone but I always do. It's that good.
Eye Cream: I have had quite a few favorites in this category this year, but the one that has stood out and the one that I just repurchased for myself is the Bobbi Brown Extra Eye Repair Cream. It's more expensive than her sister eye cream, the Hydrating Eye Cream, but I find it much richer and more moisturizing for my dry under eyes. If you want a lighter cream, the hydrating one is one I would definitely recommend, but for me, the Extra Eye Repair is my baby. I actually did an entire "rave review" on this eye cream a few years ago, so it has been a favorite for quite awhile. You can watch that review here - link!
Eye Makeup Remover: This is a category that I struggle with... I just have never found "the one" when it comes to eye makeup remover. It's so incredibly annoying, because I think that eye makeup remover is a really important product that can damage your lashes and your sensitive eye skin easily if it is too harsh, or if it doesn't work very well and you have to rub hard. I like this Chanel one and this Lancome one fairly well, but neither of them are "omg holy grail will never use another". I would LOVE recommendations for this category.
Face Mask: I am a huge face mask fan, and I have a favorite that stands out in a "omg I have to tell you about this because you need it" way. It is the Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask, which is a deeply moisturizing and cleansing mask. Manuka Honey is know for it's natural anti-microbial and hydrating properties, and on top of that this mask is said to bring balance to your Aura, meaning you are tending to both your skin and your spirit with this mask. I love that. This mask is a bit hard to find, as my usual source, Feel Unique, is sold out, but I did manage to find it here - link!
Lip Treatment: Dior Creme de Rose. Hands down. Quite possibly my favorite product in the entire world. I've gone through quite a few of these babies and there is a NIGHTMARE-inducing rumor floating around that they have been discontinued, which might be the saddest and scariest thing I've ever heard. Go get you one, now, before they are gone. They are amaze-balls. *Stocks up on 10 before the apocalypse*
Extras: You know how everyone has that one thing that they spend money on that they think to themselves... should I really be splurging on this? Well, this is my product, but it is oh so good. My name is Elle Fowler, and I am addicted to eye patches. I have tried all sorts of them, and love them all, but if you really want to treat yourself try the Wei Tibetan Chrysanthemum Correcting Eye Treatment Pads (wow that's a mouthful). They are basically just a pair of eye pads soaked in pure herbal extract to help treat dark eye circles and puffiness, which let's be honest, I need. Plus, they just feel so soothing and refreshing... ahh I just love these.
Would you like me to do a post like this for favorite makeup and haircare? I think they are a nice reference point to quickly see my current favorites in a specific category, and to see which products stay long time favorites.
P.S. I thought I would do a little giveaway to go with this post...

ReplyDeleteMariah, chamberyandchampagne.com
Hope you get better soon! Loved your blogpost! The pevonia cream sounds divine. Does it have a fragrance to it? My fav face cream is Babor's Collagen Booster cream (which is, unfortunately, also pricey *sad face*)
ReplyDeleteHello Elle! I would like to see more makeup and fashion posts! Would love to see more OOTD's when you get back to LA. Also, more makeup reviews/swatches. Possibly, a post on how you edit your videos because they ALWAYS look so great and professional looking. Feel better! :)
ReplyDeleteP.S. - Creme de Rose fan here too!
I'd like to see more Best of 2014 categories!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post about your favorite makeup from 2014!
ReplyDeleteHope your back feels better soon! I'm glad to see all the blog updates. :D
ReplyDeleteMust try the creme de rose lip balm if they're going to be discontinued.. noooo
I would love to see a favorite hair care blog post and a favorite makeup blog post!!! Love this, it gave me so many recomendations!!! Will definitely be picking up the serum/s and the exfoliator!
ReplyDeleteblog posts on your favorite base makeup products
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad to see you're back on Dreaming in Blush! I discovered Mask of Magnaminty through you, and it has been an absolute lifesaver!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! xx
I loved this post and I am currently researching everything you mentioned! I guess you could call it the Elle effect you have always left on me (my secret)! I think I speak for everyone when I say it would be amazing to see your makeup and haircare favorites. You constantly suggest the best of the best and for that, I thank you. I really hope to see more posts like this! xoxo
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you doing something else since your on bed rest. Hope you get better soon. Also Could you do your best hair items, flat iron, hairdryers. items like that when you feel up to it..
ReplyDeleteYes...definitely do one for makeup and hair care...that would be great...
ReplyDeleteTried to enter your giveaway but somehow it didn't quite work...that's ok...this is what...my second time I've replied to a blog, so I'm still working out the kinks (the first was to your last blog posting)...
Hope you're doing better (I don't know WHY but the nighttime hours always seemed Idk..longer)
Would love to see a post about your January pick me ups! x
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad that you're back, yay!!!!
ReplyDeleteFor makeup remover, I'd recommend the Mary Kay Oil-Free Makeup Remover because:
A. It's oil free=less mess
B. It's super nourishing
I would like to see recent hair care favorites or routine! I recently messed up my hair with a straight perm and am struggling to get it back to where it was.
ReplyDeleteWhen you asked about recommendations, I was hoping you would write about this one :) I actually ended up picking up a dior lip balm since you rave about it all the time. The one I have is gone now and I haven't had a chance to pick one up yet but it really is good esp when you use it over night!
ReplyDelete(I heard that it was only discontinued in Europe but would be available in the States)
I would love to read your other 2014 favorites!
Liz Earl is my go to cleanser and all summer I didn't have it but now after seeing my skin react to other cleansers I know I need to reinvest in it.
ReplyDeleteI would really like to see a house to home blog post on either this blog or the iheartyoucoffee blog!
ReplyDeleteYes!! Please do a blog post like this on your favorite make up and hair products! It made it so easy having them all here with the links to them! :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post like this for haircare as I am currently looking for dependable recommendations on the best products.
ReplyDeleteMaybe something about products that help you through the summer blues. Glad you are feeling better!
ReplyDeleteI would really like to try the dior lip balm that you talked about all the time :)
ReplyDeleteHi Elle! I've been loving your tweets and posts over the holidays. I'd love to know what your current favourite lip products are these days. Hope you're having a good night- get well soon! x
ReplyDeleteI would love to see your favorite makeup products OR your purse makeup essentials!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post about your go-to everyday makeup goodies! xx jenn erin
ReplyDeleteCreme de rose is the BEST!
ReplyDeleteI really like the Fresh Soy Condition Eye Makeup Remover that can be purchased at Sephora! It has a creamy texture and you just rub it all over your eyes and it (and your makeup) comes off when you go to wash your face like normal. I like it cause there is no unnecessary tugging since you're just lightly massaging it in. I think it works really well, however, I don't use waterproof mascara or anything super difficult to remove.
ReplyDeleteI would love a similar post on hair products! I think our hair types are pretty similar, so it would be really helpful!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know what you'd suggest to someone who is just starting to get interested in makeup! (And, yes, I'm 34)
ReplyDeleteHello Elle! I would love to see a favorite hair care products :)
ReplyDeleteLove reading these blog posts. I will be looking into all of these
Firstly, ahh your back! Like, oh god you broke your back?! and also yay, you're back posting! Both deserve an ahh, obviously. I couldn't believe what happened. I will definitely be re-thinking all rides in future. I hope it heals soon honey! It's good to see you posting again x
ReplyDeleteLoved this post! And I totally agree with you on the Dior Creme de Rose! That stuff is amazing and just pure gold. I would absolutely love to see a post on your favorite makeup and haircare of 2014! I love anything that you recommend! So happy that you are back blogging again! Loe you Elle!
ReplyDeleteWould love to see a similar post about hair products!!! :) glad your back to posting :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post--thanks for all the information!
ReplyDeleteLove that you are back! Great post and great recommendations!
ReplyDeleteWould love to see a products you regret buying post!
ReplyDeleteDo a best of 2014 makeup item post! I also think a tv show/movie post would be fun. Sending lots of back healing vibes your way!! :) :)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to check out that eye cream because my under eyes can use all the help they can. =)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see other posts like this for makeup and hair.

ReplyDeleteAlways love everything you suggest Elle!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to know about your updated beauty regimen. With you being in TN and stuck in bed a lot, i wonder what you would consider essential to feel pampered! I remember being sick and stuck at home years back & my routine had change a lot.
Anyways, hope you're having a lot more good days than bad ones <3 Take care Elle!
Id love to see a post on how to keep your skin clear! I suffer with acne and love getting new tips and tricks on keeping clear skin :) so glad to see you posting and have a great year!! ^^

I love to see that you are feeling better and that you have started doing more of what you love after such a traumatic experience. I would love to see more gliteratures in the future!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome first post - I love reading unsponsored, unbiased favorites reviews. They are truly the most helpful, and the very best products need no sponsorship to garner an amazing reputation.
ReplyDeletehttp://myliferevamp.blogspot.com/
I would love to see a favorite bath products / bath routine blog post. Or some skincare/product organization ideas because I bought an awful lot of skincare for myself for christmas and I have no where to put it and make it look all nice.
ReplyDeleteupdated house tour!
ReplyDeleteLoved this! Pls do one for makeup!
ReplyDeleteI would love you to review Deva Curl hair products. they are for naturally curly hair. I use and love them (One Condition and Ultra Defining Gel are holy grail products). Would love to know your opinion
ReplyDeleteHope you get better soon!
ReplyDeleteElle,
ReplyDeleteHave you tried the L'oreal Gentle Eye Makeup Remover (Waterproof version)? It is seriously so amazing, and really inexpensive! I just wrote a full review of it on my blog, it's my holy grail for sure!
xx
Love, Krista
Nice post and I would also like a review on the deva curl products.
ReplyDeleteI've been dying to try the Dior lip balm but sephora is always sold out when I go! I really would love if you did a hair care products! I'm transitioning my hair into more high end products and I'd love to try your favourites Elle!
ReplyDeleteSo great to have you blogging again. Great blog. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI would love to see your favorite hair products
ReplyDeleteA favorite perfumes post would be great, I love hearing about new scents!
ReplyDeleteYou need to try the Royal Apothic Cuppa Cuppa face mask. It smells like tea and leaves this wonderful cooling tingle on your face. It's one of the few masks where I see instant results! Love!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see your worst of 2014 so I know what not to be purchasing!
ReplyDeleteWhy yes browser eat my comment. XD
ReplyDeleteI would love to hear about what lotions/skincare for hands, legs and feet. I always struggle during the winter with dry skin and I also am always on the look out to try new things.
Also, sending you good heal thoughts.
I love me a good skin care post :-) Do you have any thoughts about the by Terry rose lip balm versus the Dior one?
ReplyDeleteYou should try a cleansing oil for removing makeup. It's the only thing I've personally found that doesn't irritate my eyes. I'm using the Garnier one but I hear the body shop cleansing oil is amazing. i'll be trying that one next. If you really want to stick with the traditional kind of eye makeup remover used on a cotton pad, the Maybelline one that comes in a small pink bottle has been the most efficient, and least irritating for me so far. I like it better than the lancome.
ReplyDeleteI loved this post, it was super detailed which makes reading it so much more personal!
ReplyDeleteAs an interior design major, I would love to see any recent additions to your home decor or design (for when you get back to LA -- which I'm praying is sooner than later!)
Much love :)
I'd love to see a post on both! I love learning about great new hair and makeup products!
ReplyDeleteWe just got a Space NK in the Bloomingdale's near me and I have totally been eyeing the Eve Lom cleanser!
ReplyDeleteI would love if you could do like a blog post on how you maintain healthy hair. I have very dry hair and I have no idea how to fix it!
ReplyDeleteAlso, here's a bonus secret: I've always wanted a star named after me (but I never told anyone and I never found a guy as great as Alex to think of this- you're a lucky gal, Alex is so sweet!)
I would love to see a post on your favorite drugstore (or just less high end, like under $25) skincare products! Wishing you the speediest recovery, Elle!
ReplyDeleteI love watching yearly favorites, I guess since it really forces you to narrow things down to absolute favorites! I've been wanting to try the lip balm, I've heard many good things about it. I guess that's my secret :)
ReplyDeleteI'm using the Body Shop Chamomile Cleansing Oil to remove my eye and face makeup, and it's amazing! It doesn't sting my eyes and it is gentle enough to use. I use a pump of it for my whole face and it dissolves my makeup quickly. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope they won't discontinue the Dior lipbalm because I have yet to try one! Boo!
Btw, love this post, Elle! I'd love to know what your favorite makeup products from 2014 were. Xoxo
Great blog post, I like all the detail. I would like to see posts on your favorite brushes.
ReplyDeleteYes, please do a makeup faves :)
ReplyDeleteVery nice post. I have only been consistent with my own skincare in the past 6 months or so and now getting to know what I like better than others.
Prayers for your recovery!
Id love to see a makeup post just like this one! It was different but really nice!
ReplyDeleteMy "Resolution" is to live more in all aspects of life, so I am gonna have fun and do both.
ReplyDeleteA blog post idea I would like to see, hmm... Making time for your skin care routine. I feel like I never have enough time and am falling asleep before I get to it. Or I don't get everything else done because I stopped to take care of my skin.
My secret is I am 30 yrs old and never knew half of what I do now about skin care. I have learned a lot from watching videos and reading blog post from you and Blair. I would be lost without you both.
I am happy you are feeling better. I am sure you will be back to 100% before you even know it.
Loads of Love,
XOXO
Great to see you back, Elle! I would love to see more favorite/bests such as this one in the future! xx
ReplyDeleteLove your post. Would love to see a fav tea post :)
ReplyDeleteLove your blog posts, Elle! They're so informative and fun to read!! Would love to see a series of "Best of 2014" posts! ^^

ReplyDeleteHi Elle,
ReplyDeleteI really love the Clinique Take the Day Off makeup remover. Works wonders on eye makeup and can be used on the lips as well.
I would love it if you updated your foundation shades. It is a big help to me when I am trying to get new foundations since we are the same shade in some.
ReplyDeleteHi Elle, im loving your tweets and your contents on youtube! take care and get well soon.
ReplyDeleteOthers have shared the wonder of Clinique Take theDay off makeup remover, and I agree.My eyes (whole body, actually!!!) are super sensitive to chemicals and fragrance, but this remover is super gentle and hardly irritating to my eyes.....:)
ReplyDelete*hugs*
LadyM
I would love to see a similar post about your hair faces for 2014 or a healthy late snack post. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Elle,
ReplyDeleteIt is so good to see Dreaming in Blush up and running again, I have been missing your posts like crazy!! I am already sitting here contemplating what your next post will be and I cant wait - Im just a little excited, can't you tell lol!
You have mentioned up above that you are lucky enough to work with a professional makeup artist on some occasions. As someone who is yet to experience the luxury **Ahhh one day, sighs* I was wondering if you could outline the tips and tricks that you have learned from professional makeup artists in a blog post. What is it like behind the scenes? Do you have a favorite MUA that you have worked with? How long does it typically take for a MUA to complete a full face? What are your pre and post makeup tips when working with a MUA? Have you had both positive and negative experiences? Are there any sneaky products that we should know about?
As for what eye makeup remover I swear by? Im a fan of Clinique's Take The Day Off Makeup Remover for Lids, Lashes and Lips
I wish you well with your recovery and all the best for 2015
Helene :)
So happy you are blogging again! :) I would love to see your make up and hair faves in blogform!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Elle and everyone!Excellent post!
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Elle :) Glad to see you back in the blogging community <3
ReplyDeleteI agree I'm still hunting for an eye makeup remover. I don't like using my face makeup remover (Boscia makeup breakup) on my eyes. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteWould love to see a video on winter hair care!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post on your 2014 hair care favorites! Including a detangler, because I've been searching for a good one and I could use some suggestions!
ReplyDeleteGreat post and great recommendations!
ReplyDeleteGet well soon! :)

Thanks for sharing these! Great picks!
ReplyDeleteI'm not much for skincare but I hope to rectify that this year. I have oily, acne-prone skin and I swear by La Roche Posay's Effeclar line.
ReplyDeleteHope you get wel soon!
Hi Elle! Great post, I hope you get well soon! I would like to read about your favourite body and haircare products or your favourite nailpolishes :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post about your favorite beauty and fashion picks. I look up to you so much and always try to buy the things you recommend if I have the money
ReplyDeleteI also have dry, sensitive skin. It can be so hard to find the perfect combination. Thank you for the great recommendations!
ReplyDeleteHey elle! So happy too see you blogging again after you're accident! I'd love to see something similar but for 'beauty of 2014' or even a blog post reviewing your top 3 nude/neutral eye shadow palettes :) I'm looking for some new ones! Or even more lifestyle related ( not like your other blog) like more fashion choices, how you style certain things etc xx
ReplyDeleteLove hearing about your faves!! Hope you're feeling better :)
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you blogging again Elle! I would love to see more skincare posts and general product reviews :)
ReplyDeleteSo happy you are back!
ReplyDeleteI'd love a best in beauty of 2014 post :) SO happy you're blogging again!!! Xoxo
ReplyDeleteGreat post! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it just great when you find a skincare product that fits you perfectly? That's pretty much how I feel about my Purity cleanser by Philosphy and the Sheer Transformation moisturizer by Ole Henriksen. Although, that Eve Lom cleaner has been on my "up next" list since you first mentioned it way back when. Also, Pevonia products look enticing but I don't think they sell them in Sephora (?).
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a post on organization tips or how do you organize your work day or work week :)
ReplyDeleteThx!!!
Hi Elle! I love your blog and you are so sweet! Here is my secret I haven't found yet a perfect moisturizer so I would like to try your fave one, and about your blog post I would really like to see your entire Mac collection in pictures :D
ReplyDeleteI would love to see an essential make up brush post. What you absolutely need and how/when to use them.
ReplyDeleteGreat recommendations!
ReplyDeleteSo happy to have you blogging again, and btw I wouldn't mind if you combined the two blogs but I kind of like them seperate :)
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're back Elle! xxx
ReplyDeleteHi Elle! So happy that you have found blogging again, I think it's a perfect way to keep busy and have a project while you are recovering. I would love to see a post on your haircare favourites. xx
ReplyDeleteLoved reading this post! And I would love to read the makeup and hair favourites aswell.
ReplyDeleteGet better soon!

Hey Elle,
ReplyDeleteI've been following your recovery from the beginning and hope you have a full recovery soon. Loved the skincare blog post because I think skincare is so important in the beauty world. I would also like to see top makeup in 2014 as well as body care products for a blog post. Thanks :)
Hey Elle!
ReplyDeleteLoving the fact that you're back blogging again! Whenever you're feeling fit enough, I'd LOVE to see some personal style posts! But for now something like your go-to's for night-time / morning time skincare would be great! I'm trying my best this year to get into a consistent skincare routine!
Wishing you a speedy recovery! Can't wait to read / watch more of you in 2015!

Great post! I would love to see your faves in every category! Feel better soon! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteI would like to see makeup and hair favourites too! Also, for a good makeup remover in general, especially stubborn eye make up remover - Body Shop Silky Camomile Cleansing oil. 1-2 pumps of this each evening before going in with skincare and OMG. EVERYTHING MELTS OFF so easily. i've only used it a few weeks and already got a backup because i CANNOT be without this. PS, i use the eve lim cleanser in the evening - HEAVENLY.
ReplyDeleteGet Well Soon Elle X
I love hearing about brands that are not YouTube popular, thanks for the recommendations!
ReplyDeleteThis post was great and informative! I've been looking for some great staples myself and have always wanted to try out your best. (I believe we have similar skin types)
ReplyDeleteWhat about nail polish? I know you have a nice collection, and I would LOVE a post with your favourite colors, top and base coats, nail polish remover, maybe how you do your nails... Alfo, fashion favourites! And a shoe collection post!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your skincare favorites. I would love to see a "what's in my bag" or a handbag collection video. :)

Hi Elle, For eye makeup remover i like the spear brand! It's inexpensive and it works!
ReplyDeleteHi, Elle! I'd love to see a blog post on your favorite makeup brushes.
ReplyDeleteAs an eye makeup remover I use Helena Rubinstein All Mascaras! and I think it's great, you should definitely give it a try :)
I would like to see a post on foundations/concealers :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to see a 2014 favourites blog post! On makeup, fashion, books, technology, food, travel and your best memory of the year :-)

My favourite blog posts are your reviews and favorites! I try a lot of products you reccomended and usually end up loving them. I hope you get better soon so you can get back to LA! I can't wait for more house to home posts on iheartyoucoffee!
ReplyDeleteReally happy to see you blogging again and finding ways to pass the time!! Hope you get better ASAP!! :)
ReplyDeleteMaybe a blog post on the best way to de-tangle hair while its wet - like the best products you have found that help de tangle hair without damage. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your blog Elle!! <3 hope you feel better soon! Have you tried the Kiehl's Super Multi-Corrective Eye-Opening Serum? It's awesome for the undereye area. I would love to try the Dior creme de rose but it's SO expensive :(
ReplyDeleteI love the recommendations on the skin care! I am always looking for new stuff to try!
ReplyDeletei missed reading your blogposts, i'm so happy you're posting again! especially since you're my favourite blogger - i used to read elleandblair.com RELIGIOUSLY every single day :)
ReplyDeleteI'm going to get one of each of these!
ReplyDeleteHi Elle! It's hard for me too to find the perfect eye makeup remover. Now I'm using one from Neutrogena. It's good but i would like to hear other recommendations.
ReplyDeleteWould love to see your hair and makeup 2014 favs as well!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you're blogging again :)
So glad to see you back! I love skin care posts, I like to nourish my skin and give it that little bit of extra attention so your suggestions will definitely be looked into!
ReplyDeleteI adore the Booby Brown eye cream!! I have tried every eye makeup remover out there and none have worked as well as coconut oil. I warm a bit between my fingers and massage it into my eyes. After letting it sit for a minute or so, I wipe away everything with a clean cotton pad. It very easily and gently removes at least 90% of my makeup every time. It's very inexpensive and it's fantastic for your skin!
ReplyDeleteI would love to read about your (all time) Holy Grail products. Makeup, Skincare, Bodycare, Haircare/Styling etc.
ReplyDeleteI would love to see an updated post, since you've done a video before, about how you use/organize your planner.
ReplyDeleteLove this post! Lots of products I haven't tried myself...those eye pads sound amazing, they are going on my wishlist :)
ReplyDeleteI'm from Belgium and they don't sell the Creme De Rose lip balm here anymore. It really is a nightmare.
ReplyDeleteDior's Creme de Rose lip balm is amazing. I've been using it for years after you recommend in a video.
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see a 'Products I've used up' post! Get better soon Elle xx and thank you for bringing these blogs back to life!!
ReplyDeleteI would love to see the makeup favorites! :) x
ReplyDeleteI'd love to see a blog post about your favorite foundations :)
ReplyDeleteYeaaah! I wanted to buy a new beauty mask, because I was out of mine, but I had no idea which one to try and I wanted to try one with honey for a long time! So of course, I ordered it and I can't wait to receive it! Thank you Elle :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard lots of good things about the Bobbi Brown eye creams but have yet to try them. I might need to try one soon as my under eye area needs some good hydration. X
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see more posts - not anything in particular but I want Dreaming in Blush back in action! <3

I would love to see some blog posts comparing high end products to their drug store dupes and if it is worth the splurge or if the drugstore version is just as good.
