My August Obsessions ft. Cocotique

Hello lovelies! 

I have tons to update you on and more to come now that I am back in America and gearing up for my senior year of college.

For starters, it's time to announce a new little series where I share with you all: 
My Monthly Obsessions

So if you're looking for new products to try, need a good workout song, looking for new clothing pieces, or just other things to obsess over, make sure to stay tuned for more monthly obsessions girlfriends.

I arrived home to this lovely little box waiting for me totally filled with new products to try. 

Have you heard of Cocotique? If you haven't, you are about to discover a box of wonders. This fab beauty box has been featured in Lucky Magazine and Essence to name a few.

Cocotique is a monthly subscription box service for women of color and different ethnicities. Each month, you'll receive 5-8 deluxe sample size and full size beauty and lifestyle products for just $20 in addition to Free Shipping. After trying the products, you are welcome to purchasing them on the Cocotique shop. 

It's a box full of beauty surprises at the beginning of each month. Like, can it get any better?!

Raise your hand if you've got a makeup, beauty, and hair product obsession with ethnic hair and skin type to match!

*Raises All Limbs*

This beauty subscription box differs from others because it caters to girls with unique features including Dominican curly hair like mine.

Retail Price: $9.99

The My DNA Defining Custard has changed the leaving my hair natural game completely. As previously established, my hair cannot be tamed. I'm sure Miley Cyrus was talking about my hair and not her in that song. Not only does it smell like a tropical paradise but it defines my natural curls and keeps them controlled with this summer heat. 


Retail Price: $5.49


What do you do when you must renew your license picture at the DMV after turning 21 and have a huge zit as an accessory the night before? PUT THIS AMAZING PRODUCT ON IT. I'm a person who goes to the Dermatologist and normally uses something prescribed but it doesn't have the immediate impact as a product like this. I literally saw the zit go from the size of Texas to gone the next day. Thank you Zapzyt. 



Retail Price: $26.00

I saw this in my box and didn't really have any idea as to what I could use it for. I even saw it on Pinterest and wondered what all the popularity for it was. Little did I know how in handy it would come. What happens when you love pizza so much? You get too excited and burn yourself making it in the process. Well, thankfully I had this little gem to put on my scar and it's healing my skin so nicely! What are it's other magical powers? Try using it as a lip balm, face cream, hair masque, or any other problems that may come...like burning yourself making pizza. 


Retail Price: $38.00

To all my makeup addicts: buy this. Not only did I see Carli Bybel raving about it in one of her latest videos, it's an awesome primer. I'm very loyal to my foundations and primers and this is definitely a new favorite. With more events and outings approaching, this is going to be my go-to for minimizing my pores. You could also use it as another breakout remedy at night. Who doesn't love a multi-purpose product?!
