Today marks the end date to my 101 in 1001 and I have some very mixed feelings about it. First of all, if you don’t know what 101 in 1001 is, it’s a list of 101 things to accomplish in 1001 days. I made my list (which took all day of some hard thinking and a […]
Earlier in the month, I saw a blog post about Burt’s Bees lipstick. It’s not often I buy lip color anymore since I’m trying to whittle down my collection, but considering I’m moving more towards natural based beauty products and maybe needed a good Spring lip color anyway, you couldn’t imagine how excited I was […]
Welcome to Spring! I think? Apparently the East cost is supposed to be slammed with snow again next week. We’re all still bundled up here and still feeling the effects of Winter, but I have been craving spring colors for a while now. I’m ready to leave my coat at home, throw on something colorful, […]
Full coverage foundations are pretty important to me. My foundation itself is the most important thing that goes on my face since I still have breakouts and redness (or scares) from the blemishes. I’ve always wanted to make sure everything was fairly covered up with minimal red showing through my foundation. Light to medium coverage […]
Whew! Have things been crazy around here! And I’m not talking about just getting ready for the Holidays. We’re prepping for moving this weekend, so we’re packing away (or trying to. Does anyone else get A.D.D. looking through all of your stuff when packing?). I’ve also been working with Gloss48, who is launching a 7-Day […]
For those that have been following my blog for a year, you might know I’m in to candles. You also may know that I started even making my own. The exciting thing is that this coming Friday (December 13th), my candles (Abscents Home Fragrances) will be featured on an amazing beauty site, Gloss48! I highly […]
Thanks to LoveMelisaMichelle, on YouTube, I have found a new website, shoplately.com, for incredible and reasonably priced jewelry among other fun girly stuff! After drooling over a few pieces I was able to convince the hubby to get them as my Christmas presents this year, so now he can easily cross me off his list. […]
1. Favorite thing about it: the cool air, warm drinks, clothing, food, and watching the leaves change. 2. Favorite Drink: Apple Cider 3. Favorite Scent/Candle: Anything with cinnamon/spice. 4. Best Lipstick: deep reds. 5. Go to Colors for the Eyes: anything earthy and brown. I’ve thought about wearing red, even! Or maybe a wine color. […]
Back when I worked at Sephora during the Holidays, we had the Fresh Sugar duo birthday gifts for the Beauty Insiders. I had never tried the product and had heard from many that it’s a great lip balm. The packaging enough drew me in with the colorful metal twist tubes. But I stayed away until it […]
About a year ago I discovered at Hallmark this amazing scent. Every time I would go in I would always spritz a little on my wrist, not ready to make the commitment of purchasing a bottle for myself. So after admiring it all this time, this was the only thing I asked my husband to […]
