MONTHLY TREAT: theBalm Frat Boy blush

Last month I decided to purchase something special every month and post it on my blog under the name of "Monthly Treat". In February I got my first MAC lipstick and this month the monthly treat is theBalm Frat Boy blush. I've wanted to get this blush for such a long time! I've heard so many nice things about it and the shade (even though it looks slightly different in real live than on theBalm's website) is just exactly what I need in my make-up collection. I haven't tried it yet as I obviously waited to post it on my blog first (I guess it's the nightmare of all beauty bloggers) but I think I will love this blush just as much as I love my favourite blush which is the Sleek blush. I'm very excited to try this and I will definitely post a review soon so stay tuned.

MONTHLY TREAT: MY FIRST MAC LIPSTICK

This month I decided to treat myself with something I've wanted for a really really long time - a MAC lipstick. I've been actually wanting to get a lipstick called Crosswires as I think it would be a great every day coral shade but as it was sold out and I couldn't wait any longer I went for Speak Louder from the Cremesheen line. MAC describes this shade as "clean poppy blue pink" but I don't really see the blue undertone in it. For me it's a strong pink shade with a hint of coral. The Cremesheen formula is very soft. The lipstick is very pigmented, just one swipe and the it is opaque. What's also amazing about Speak Louder is that it is flashy enough to be worn on special occasions and light enough to be an everyday shade. I don't know if it's my favourite MAC formula as it's my first MAC lipstick but I definitely want to try some more, maybe more matte formulas. But the next one will for sure be Cremesheen Crosswires (or Ravishing...or both). 

What have you treated yourself with this month?
