Hey there!
Can you believe that the end of 2015 is here already?? Holy smokes! This year flew by so fast!
As you can see from the title, it is time for Monthly Favorites Again!!!! Yay!
I love these posts because I like to talk about products I love. Like always, I will tell you a bit about each product and link to it below (or something similar if I can't find it)

Intorducing The December Favorites Team!
Favorite Candle: Meet my new friend, Glade Peace & Cherish.
I stumbled across this little fella while in the grocery store with my Mom. I could not believe how wonderful and Christmas-y it smelled. Then I saw that it was on sale so of course I snatched this and another one up! I was so surprised by how strong this smells when it is lit. I was pleasantly surprised and now I will have to give these a whiff when new ones come out. Way to go Glade!

Favorite Drink: Tazo Chai
I have been a long time fan of Chai, thanks to my beautiful friend, Jamie (Hi!!) that worked at numerous coffee shops and makes the most delicious Chai EVER! I found a box of this at Ross and decided to give it a whirl. Much to my surprise it isn't a super strong Chai. It is more mellow but tastes delicious none the less. AND I love that I can make this in my Keurig. If you're a tea drinker and like Chai-like teas, I highly suggest this!

Favorite Perfume: VS Bombshell Pink Diamonds
We have Mr. Adela Told Me to thank for this one! He surprised me with this perfume last year around this time. It smells amazing! I am horrible at describing scents so I will spare you of that. I will say that it is clean, feminine, and sexy in one fragrance. Love! Sadly it was limited edition and is no longer available in store. I did however find a link to it on Amazon, so I will link that one below.

Face Scrub: Burts Bees Peach & Willow Bark Deep Pore Scrub
You did it again, Burt! I was in the market for a new face scrub. My skin texture was getting out of control and I was not happy with the way my skin was looking at all. Blame it on age, weather, your Aunt Sue. Whomever was the culprit was causing me problems that needed to be addressed. Another wonderful friend of mine (Hi Nydia!!) and I were in Ulta and she pointed this out to me. I admit I was afraid to try it at first because I remember practically ripping my face off years ago with that God awful apricot scrub. I gave it a whirl and I love it! It is super scrubby and you have to make sure to be gentle with it. After a few weeks of using this baby, my skin texture has drastically improved! I use this about 3 times a week. And those bargain hunters can appreciate the price tag...it's only $8! Love!!!

Favorite Body Scrub: Soap & Glory Breakfast Scrub
Move over Tree Hut, there's a new girl in town! If you like the smell of maple then you will looooove this! This is hands down the best body scrub I have every used! It makes my skin so soft without feeling dry after use and it smells like a hot maple bar. What's not to love? I am already half way through my first tub and I already ordered another. Can't get enough of this scrub-tastic goodness!

Favorite Body Butter: Body Shop in Brazil Nut
I used to use this years ago. I am not stuck to one scent because they are all wonderful. I came across this in Marshalls while on Vacation and decided to try it again and boy am I glad I did! I forgot how awesome these are! I slather this all over myself after I shower at night and my skin is so soft and moisturized! I am for sure going to check out The Body Shops sale they have going on right now and see if I might get another one, or two. Great stuff!

Favorite Primer: Elf Hydrating
I showed this in my last elf haul. My skin tends to get dry during the winter so I decided to give this a try. I really like it but my skin can get oily if I'm not careful. I apply the most product to the areas of my face that need the extra moisture and then lightly go over the areas that don't need help (like the T-Zone). One thing I really like about this is that it doesn't make me look like an oil slick throughout the day. All I need is a a blot of two from my handy dandy blotting papers and I'm good! and for $6 you can't beat it.

Favorite Blush: Milani Romantic Rose
I have been hooked on this blush since I purchased it! The color is perfect for this time of year, well any time really. It's a perfect mauve color. I wear this most days when I only want a hint of color on my cheeks. It is buildable and it stays true to color all day.

Hopefully next month you will see those gems. I hope you enjoyed this post. Please let me know what products you have been loving this month.
Until next time...
