Post Surgery Update

I've made it two weeks post operation and I'm doing well.  I am still having pains around my incisions but that is to be expected.  Hopefully soon I will be feeling energized enough to get some makeup looks on here and start some fashion ones as well.  Hope everyone has a wonderful Earth Day on Sunday and please remember all those lives lost 13 years ago today at Columbine High School, a sad day in history that hit home for me and so many of my close friends.

Take Care!!!

March Favorites

Two days into April and I am now getting around to doing my March favorites.  Eventually I will have my own YouTube channel and you will get to see me and my favorite products in "person", but for now this is it.  This past month I haven't really used many things, but I do have some that I absolutely adore!  For my hair I have really come to like the WEN hair care system in Sweet Almond and Mint.  It's a little strange being that it doesn't lather and feels just like conditioner, but my hair feels great and smells even better.  I only use it once a week, but I can tell a difference.  Hair feels so healthy.  Another shower product is the Schick Hydro razor.  I absolutely am in love with this razor.  Never have I had such smooth legs (well maybe when I was a baby), but this razor having 5 blades and works so well.  Highly recommend.  Mentioned in my latest haul was the Mabelline Baby Lips, I love they way they make my lips feel and the Quenched (only one I have used on a regular basis) is so nice and moisturizing.  The Nivea Creame is also so nice.  I used it at work this past Saturday and if anyone knows how many time a Veterinary Nurse washes their hands you can imagine how dry they must get.  I would put it on after washing my hand and they never felt softer.  Has a very pleasant scent as well, very clean.  As far as makeup, I love the Stila Ladies Who Lunch eye shadows.  They blend so easily and look great with any look.  I seem to have used them a lot this month.  Lastly I think I saw these in one of DulceCandy87's  videos, but I have a new found love for eye drops.  Rohto has drops that help get the red out, but also lubricate and help with stressed/strained eyes.  I got this particular type because my eyes seem to always be red from my allergies, but also the get so strained from being on the computer doing homework and reading my textbooks.  They do burn upon application, but it goes away quickly and after that is over my eyes feel so refreshed! 

Hope you guys and gals enjoyed my March Favorites.  In case I don't post another blog before my surgery, hope you guys and gals have a wonderful Easter and I'll try to keep you updated on how I'm doing post-op and maybe get some looks up.

Take Care!

Ulta and Bath&Body Works Haul

A week after purchasing/receiving I'm finally getting around to making a haul for these awesome products!  For the first time I did not purchase makeup from Ulta.  Weird I know, but it had to be done.  SO...let's start this haul!


From Ulta, I got a new Caboodle in pink with black lace over.  It's a little bigger than the clear one I purchased a few weeks ago, but open and works just like the clear one.  Two body butter jars from The Body Shop in Coconut and Strawberry.  The Coconut takes me to the spring break of 2004 when my family got a house in Marathon, FL and my brother Bryan lifted me up into a palm tree to try and retrieve a coconut (we are crazy kids) and the Strawberry is delicious.  I first heard about the Strawberry one from one of my fav YouTube Guru's MakeupByTiffanyD about a year ago so I finally decided to get it.  Next two Maybelline Baby Lips chapsticks in Quenched (a little lemon-y flavor) and in Cherry Me (yummy cherry :) )  Jack Black Intense Therapy Lip Balm in Natural Mint and Shea Butter (so moisturizing and makes lips feel fresh).  Nivea Creme in travel tin (I got three of these.  I think they were only $0.99 or $1.99) they are so tiny and compact that they will fit perfectly in a clutch or pocket for on the go. Lastly Nicole by O.P.I. Kardashian  Collection in Khloe had a Little Lam-Lam, will definitely be doing my nails in this after my surgery.  I also got nail polish remover, Basically U brand 100% acetone, I have found this to be the best remover. 





 Bath&Body Works - I'm not a regular Bath&Body Works purchaser, but since I bought candles this past fall and winter I have fallen back in love with shopping there. (I just hope they don't discontinue my favorite scents like they have in the past).  First I got five travel size Anti-Bacterial hand sanitizers in Warm Vanilla Sugar, Japanese Cherry Blossom, Sweet Pea, Caribbean Escape and Island Nectar.  Also to make more travel friendly splurged on two of the holders for them (they both have glitter which makes me oh so happy).  For Candles I got the brushed nickle holder that has a base to it so it doesn't sit flat on my dresser, Coco Lobo, Coconut Water, and Tiki Beach candles.  I'm a very beachy/coconut scent person.  *Not pictured is an essential home oil in Warm Vanilla Sugar, travel lotions in Warm Vanilla Sugar and Sweet Pea, and  body spray in Sweet Pea.

Welp, that's all for this haul.  If you have any questions about how I like these products or anything feel free to comment and I'll try to answer quickly.  I'm not going to reviews on these because honestly I don't have that much time coming up with my surgery that is happening on Friday, but like I said if you have questions ask!  

Hope you enjoyed!  Take Care!
XOXO

Slacking a little

So I've been slacking a little on getting things posted and done for my blog.  SORRY!  This week and the next few months coming up are going to be hard for me to get things posted on here because I am having back surgery.  But I will try my best to get some stuff up here at least once a week.  I will have a March favorites posted before my surgery on Friday.  I'm going to post a link to a video that one of the Guru's I follow on YouTube posted the other day that I think has some cool things mentioned.  Hope everyone had a fool-less April fools day and have a great week!

Take care!
XOXO
