My Monthly Favorites October 2026

I’ve been sharing my monthly favorites nearly every month for the past 10+ years but only on video (IG, Tiktok, YouTube). I’ve never shared my favorites in a blog post but thought I would begin doing so in case you ever miss my monthly favorites video. These are all my favorite, most worn and most enjoyed products from the month. I love putting these lists together and sharing the best of the best with all of you! Here are my favorites from the month of October 2026.

My Monthly Favorites: October 2026

Reformation Olina Cropped Pants

I kept seeing this pants all over my social media and finally decided to order a pair to try. I am desperate for pants that aren’t denim to wear on a regular basis. I bought the rich purple color because they were a bit out of my comfort zone. Thank goodness I did because I am OBSESSED! The fit is true to size though it does run slim through the hips. There is a slight sheen to the pants which makes them a great option for evening but the cropped length also makes it suitable for daytime. There are so many gorgeous colors to choose from that I might even order a second color.

Ilia Beauty Eye Stylus Shadow Stick in Venetian

I already love the Ilia Beauty eye shadow stick in Adorn and wear it often. I received the shade Venetian in a gift set which I loved just as much as Adorn. It’s a soft shimmery pink that is perfect for everyday. Here is a video of me trying it on so you can see how beautiful it looks on the eyes!

Summer Fridays Body Fragrance Mist in Pistachio Milk

After trying a few fragrances this past year with pistachio in them, I realized that I LOVE the scent. It’s creamy yet still a bit nutty so if a body mist or perfume contains pistachio, there is a big chance I am going to love it. This new body mist from Summer Fridays was an instant hit because of the pistachio note. Additional notes of creamy woods and raspberry sugar make this scent feel milky and light on the skin with just a hint of sweetness.

Emi Jay Big Effing Clip

I rarely ever wear claw clips in my hair because they are either too harsh and uncomfortable or fall out because my hair is so thin and fine. I’ve heard amazing things about these hair clips from Emi Jay but didn’t think they would work for me. I was SO wrong! I mainly use it to hold my hair up when I’m curling it or wearing it around the house but it is perfection. It holds my hair, doesn’t feel uncomfortable or pull at my hair damaging it in any way.

Currentbody LED Red Light Therapy Mask Series 3 (discount code: ALITTLEBITCB)

I am a loyal user of my Currentbody LED mask for the past 3 years. I’ve tried every version they have put out and the technology keeps getting better and better. This is the one skincare device that I use consistently and have seen the most results from. The newest version of their LED mask is the Series 3 which lets you customize the lights in the mask to target different parts of the face with different treatments. In addition, there are 4 preset modes that you can choose from which target various concerns. It’s their best version yet – I have been using it every single night since it arrived!

Westman Atelier Face Trace Contour Stick in Coco

Absolutely flawless. This contour stick is smooth, creamy and easy to blend. While it is designed to be a contour product and sculpt the face, I use it in the same way I do a traditional bronzer. It’s sheer but can be built up for more intensity. My favorite shade is Biscuit which is a cooler-toned contour that looks soft and natural on the skin. For a traditional bronzer, Westman Atelier has two options: the Beauty Butter Powder Bronzer (I would probably wear shade Coup de Soleil) and the Sun Tone Bronzing Drops (I plan to order these in Shade 1).

Orebella Vanilla’s Touch Body & Hair Perfume Mist

I love a gourmand scent for the fall/winter so I knew this body mist would be something I would wear all season long. With notes of sheer vanilla, marshmallow and skin musk, it’s a gorgeous sweet skin-like scent.

Sequin Jewelry Brielle Choker Necklace (discount code: MAREE20)

This is the perfect color palette for fall that isn’t all browns and neutrals. I own tons of colorful beaded necklaces because I love how much interest they add to an outfit. This particular necklace is a choker style that clasps at the back but stays stiff rather than being movable and flimsy. I love how it stays rigid at the neck which allows it to work well with a crewneck neckline. You can see how I styled it here in this video.

Splits 59 Andie Oversized Fleece Sweatpants

Sweatpants are sweatpants until you find a pair that make you feel the need to tell everyone about them! LOL That is how I feel about this pair of sweatpants I just got in the mail. They are super thin yet still incredibly cozy. Slim fitting without being tight. 10/10 all around.

Westman Atelier HydroBalm Tinted Lipstick in Ballerine

If you don’t love a full coverage lipstick and prefer something with just a hint of color, these Westman Atelier HydroBalm lipsticks are definitely worth trying. They give a sheer wash of color (but still enough to show up) and feel incredibly nourishing on the lips. The shade English Rose manages to be the perfect shade of cool toned rose without being too pink.

Freja NYC Caroline Bag Espresso

I already wear my Freja NYC Chrystie bag non-stop so I knew I would wear this one just as much. It’s a smaller size which I wanted because so many of my bags are huge so having something smaller was perfect. The color is a gorgeous rich chocolate brown that goes with everything.

Lawless Beauty Forget the Filler Lip Plumping Line Smoothing Satin Cream Lipstick in Femme

As a lip gloss lover primarily, I often overlook satin lipsticks because I find the texture too thick or heavy. That is not the case with these line smoothing lipsticks from Lawless. While they do provide medium to full coverage, the formula feels weightless and hydrating on the lips. The shade I wear is called Femme which is soft blushing rose. Here is a video of me wearing it – it’s the perfect neutral rose for everyday.
