Hey Yall! I recently purged out my bathroom cabinets and boy did I have a lot of expired beauty products, I felt like I threw away all of my stashes.
And if it weren't for us moving, those beauty products would be still there collecting dust. I need to calm down with all the makeup and skincare products; I have way too many stuff that I use a couple of times and then forget. But hey, that's the life of a blogger, right? 😄
While cleaning and dumping my beauty items, I noticed I didn't have any makeup colors for the fall months.
Then, (ding-dong) the doorbell rang. Aveda surprised me, yet again, this time with fall makeup from their latest fall collection and their BCA hand relief.
They sure were right on time; I didn't want to miss out, especially with me moving. It would be all bad that my box filled with colorful goodness get lost in the mail.
Check out the makeup products I received from Aveda:
Nourish-Mint Smoothing Lip Color (Carnelian) $18.00- Full-coverage lip formula infused with plant and fruit waxes to help smooth the look of fine lines, hydrate, and plump lips.
Nourish-Mint Sheer Mineral Lip Color (Sheer Primrose) $18.00- Infused with plant and fruit waxes to help smooth the look of fine lines, hydrate, and plump lips.
Nourish-Mint Rehydrating Lip Glaze (Pink Lupine) $18.00- Infused with plant emollients and proven to help moisturize, plump and smooth the look of fine lines.
Nourish-Mint Lip Shine (Chuparosa) $18.00- Translucent wet gloss that brings the power of beetroot, beta carotene, and berry anti-oxidants to life on lips.
Nourish-Mint Lip Liner (Tarragona) $18.00- Infused with plant waxes and fruit butters, it shapes and defines while providing coverage and helping reduce feathering of other lip color.
Petal Essence Eye Definer (Slat Shimmer, Gypsum Gold) $17.00- Drawn from jasmine petals and geranium leaves, aromatic flower waxes make this formula creamy, blendable and smooth- Ophthalmologist-tested.
Petal Essence Single Eye Colors (Chia, Rose Quartz, Dusted Sage, Balsam) $15.00- Flower wax-infused, soft-to-the-touch shadow that is color-true and crease-resistant, surrounded by a soft floral aroma, talc, and mineral oil-free Ophthalmologist-tested.
BCA Hand Relief $26.00- Replete with hydrating plant extracts, vitamins and exfoliating fruit acids such as Andiroba and Meadowfoam Seed Oil to seriously soothe and smooth dry rough hands.
My thoughts about the items I received is that it's not pigmented enough. With it being fall, colors are darker and earthy; the Aveda color tones are a bit too soft for my liking. Maybe I need to add an eye primer to make my shadow bolder. Also, this could be because Aveda uses only natural ingredients, which is a good thing. I love their nourishing lippies! 💋
The lotion was very moisturizing and absorbing. Gives off a therapeutic relaxation, works great when you want to settle in and bundle up for warmth while enjoying a cup of chai tea.

Lovely look, but I agree, not very pigmented for a Fall look, more Spring, because they are so soft. I've heard of Aveda but thought they were only skin care. I just did the beauty bin purge as well, lol. Take care Hon and have a lovely Thanksgiving
ReplyDeleteIt looks very natural on you. I have never heard of this makeup brand before but I am not huge on makeup. I have been looking for a lighter makeup so this might be something for me to try! That you for a great post and have a great Thanksgiving with your girls and family!!
ReplyDeleteLove it! Thanks for sharing and congrats on the new home!!
ReplyDeleteAveda is huge here and I love their hair products but haven't tried the make up. I suspect that because it's natural it won't be real pigmented. You look good though!
ReplyDeleteI agree sometimes it is to light which for me is ok because I get to shy to ware bold colors. But you look great girl as always. #productreviewparty
ReplyDeleteLovely, soft look on you. I agree sadly the colors aren't a pigmented as they appear in the containers. I didn't know Aveda made make up, I thought they were only hair and skin care. #productreviewparty
ReplyDeleteI like this look on you. It's is very natural and so pretty. I didn't know they had makeup either. You look beautiful! #ProductReviewparty
