October Favorites

I hope everyone had a spooktacular Halloween!  This year I binged watched my favorite childhood Halloween movies (Hocus Pocus and Casper) and overindulged in all of the candy.  Anyone else prefer to chill at home on Halloween rather than going out to crowed parties?  Ok, now back to the favorites.  This month I’ve been sticking to my usual beauty and skincare routine so I don’t have too many favorites.  Here are a few new finds that I thought were worthy of favorites status.

September Favorites

Another month has flown by and another monthly favorites is coming your way.  Also, the leaves decided to join in on the photo session.  They were attempting to be real camera hogs so I decided to use them as props.  Anyway, let’s get onto the favorites.

Essie Summer Nail Polish Favorites

As summer is drawing to a close, I’m reflecting back on my favorite summer nail polishes.  Since I pretty much only use Essie nail polishes, my favorites are a bit brand specific.

August Favorites

I didn’t have many favorites this month but the products I enjoyed were pretty awesome.   This months favorites only has four products but I think there are some definite HG contenders in the mix.

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

Since I mentioned my experience with the L’oreal Setting Spray, I have been on the hunt for another spray to compare it with.  I’ve heard great things about the Urban Decay All Nighter so I decided to try it out.

July Favorites

Now that summer is in full swing, I’ve been reaching for products to help me look put together while beating the heat.  This month I’ve been all about minimal makeup and effortless hairstyles. 

Bumble and Bumble Thickening Dryspun Finish

I mentioned this little guy in a new in post I did a few months back and recently realized I forgot to report back on my thoughts.  This is yet another beauty Youtuber enabled purchase that I couldn't resist trying out. 

Daisy Marc Jacobs

Probably one of the biggest highlights about spring is the chance to pull out this perfume.  Daisy is my go to perfume in the spring and summer months. 

Empties #6

It’s been ages since I’ve done an empties post.  Since my last empties, I got into a habit of throwing stuff out right after I finished it up.  While that’s good for minimizing clutter, it’s not so good when you want to do an empties post.  I finally collected enough empty stuff to show you what I’ve used up and what I thought of the products.

Spring Makeup Routine

Now that the weather has warmed up and the sun is coming out more, I’ve been in the mood to bring more color (read pink) into my everyday makeup routine.  I realized while writing this post that I forgot to include eyeshadows into the picture.  Let’s pretend that the eyeshadow is there so this picture doesn’t have to go to waste.

Sephora VIB Wishlist

It’s that time of year again!  The Sephora VIB sale started April 16th and runs through April 21st.  Although 15% off doesn’t seem like much, when you take into account that the only other sale happens in November, it’s worth it to stock up on staples and try out new items.   Here are the things that I’m really tempted to pick up.

Bumble and Bumble Straight Blow Dry Review

If you haven’t noticed by now, I really love Bumble and Bumble products.  Last week, I posted a review of the Gentle Shampoo and Super Rich Conditioner.  This week, I am going to share with you my love for the Straight Blow Dry styling balm. Talk about a spoiler alert!  Well now that you that I love it I will fill you in on why it is such an awesome styling product.

2013 Makeup Favorites

I'm really late getting this up but better late than never.  Here are my makeup favorites for 2013.

December 2013 Empties

This past month I finished quite a few products...over half of which were makeup!  Below is a mini review of each product.  I will also link my YouTube video down below so you can watch that if you want.  Now, let's get on to the products...

April and May 2013 Empties/ Products I've Used Up #4

So, I was a naughty Youtuber/Blogger and took the month of May off to well....pretty much just be a lazy bum and enjoy the wonderful late spring weather.  Now that I'm back, I thought I would do a April and May combined post to show you what I used up over the past two months.

Love At First Stroke | Seche Vite Review

I've been meaning to do a post on Seche Vite for a while now.  Even though nearly every beauty blogger/youtuber has raved about this topcoat, I think there aren't enough good things that can be said about Seche Vite.  So, here is a rundown of what I love about it:

Vaseline Spray & Go Moisturizer in Cocoa Radiant | Review

A few weeks ago I spotted this new product at my local Target.  It claims to be a fast and convenient way to apply moisturizer.  The spray can design intrigued me.  I'm a total sucker for a gimmick so I had to pick this up.

NOTD: Sally Hansen All Fired Up

Lately I've been obsessed with bright nail polish.  Normally, I prefer more toned down shades.  However, now that spring is in full bloom I am ready to embrace bright nail colors.  Also, I love the bright orangey red nails on Mad Men.  Inspired by the warmer weather and the return of my favorite show, I decided to sport a polish from my collection that sadly I don't give enough love. 

Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure in All Fired Up

Revlon PhotoReady Color Correcting Primer | Review

Here are the basics:
- There are two shades in the range: 001 (Perfecting) and 002 (Color Correcting).
- I bought it for around $11 at Target.
- The primer comes in a glass bottle and has a pump (I love products in pump containers!)

Shade 002

Figuring out this whole blog thing....

<a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/6726683/?claim=3tapm93mzk7">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>

I'm not a very tech savvy person.  In the past I've tried and failed to keep up with blogs.  Unfortunately, I could never figure out the whole RSS feed thing (shameful I know).  A site that really helped make it super easy for me to follow blogs is Bloglovin.  Above is the link and apparently I need to put it up there to validate my new account.  So, bear with me and the link above.  Soon I hope to have a fancy Bloglovin button off to the side where you can click and add my blog to your reading list!
