Maybelline Define a Lash

This is one of Maybelline's older mascaras but I saw it in the drugstore and thought, hmm I wouldn't mind giving it a go. I believe I have tried this mascara before but I am not quite sure of my opinion back in the day. Maybelline has two Define A Lash types of mascara, a lengthening one (green tube) and the volume one (pink tube)

Overall this mascara is good at separating your lashes and giving a little volume but nothing amazing, it defines them (hence the name) but again I wouldn't run out and buy this mascara, its an oldie but a goodie as well. Good ol stand by if your looking for simple pretty natural-esque lashes. 

What are some of your favorite drugstore mascaras?

NOTD April 16th 2012

 While I was shopping with my mom I saw this nail polish by Color Club which I have seen on various beauty blogs but have never come across myself. I really liked it and picked it up, popped it on over a L'oreal nail polish and this is what it came out as. 

L'oreal polish: I pink I'm in love

Color Club polish: Wish upon a rock-star

I quite like it :)

Fresh Flowers

I was inspired by Sarah Hawkinson whom is a beauty blogger and youtuber as you might say, I absolutely love her videos and her blog is beautiful! Anyways so she mentioned that she had recently gotten some fresh flowers for her room thought hmmmm... thats a really good idea! Flowers brighten your mood, and are always pretty so I was grocery shopping with my mom the other day and I thought I would check out their selection and I am so glad I did.

The first set I bought were lilies which are my favorite flowers in the whole entire world, I cannot stress enough how much I adore lilies. I set them up on my makeup table area which I thought to be a nice addition.

Next I bought these flowers which are typical white daisies but they were so pretty and fresh looking I thought why not! The best part was that each set were only $4. You heard me! $4!!

So I set these pretty babies up on my computer table/desk area.

I am loving the new additions to my room and think every girl should have some fresh flowers around somewhere, just a nice pick me up.

Soy Candles?

I was not to long ago in Target looking for some candles for my bedroom. I love having at least two, if not upwards of four or five candles burning in my room at one time. I love the natural lighting it gives during the evenings and its just soothing and puts me right to sleep. 

SO ANYWAYS, I came across these soy candles and thought to myself.... hmmmm.... SOY candles?

Why soy? There has to be some benefit or reason right?

Well soy candles are better for what you would call "clean burning" they don't omit  those bad toxins into the air that regular candles do. 

I bought two that day and plan to go back for more since i burned them down to nothing recently but if your in the market for some new candles, definitely look out for soy candles. 

The two that i purchased and LOVED were:

They both smell amazing! 

Check them out at your local target and let me know what you think.

The only downside I want to mention about these candles, I am not sure if its these in particular or just soy candles in general is that they burn a tad quicker, not by much just a little but I thought I would at least mention it. 

March Favorites!

 March Favorites!

A little late, I know, but rather late then never :)

 So here they are!

Drum Roll Pleaseeee

Buxom Cream EyeShadow in Mutt

I love this as a base for my eyeshadows, I have found on its own IT WILL crease and that's not quite the look I am going for. Under eyeshadow is looks amazing though, its your typical bronzy slightly shimmery cream shadow, very smooth and very ease to apply. The nice thing about this though is that I have had it for almost a year and it hasn't shown any signs of drying up or anything! 

Mac Blush in Tenderling

I love love love love this blush for everyday, it just gives a natural color to your cheeks, its perfect for a natural flush on the cheeks, I really recommend everyone have this blush because its so simple yet looks so good!

Mac 109 Brush

I don't know what I was doing without the brush for so long, it is PERFECT for contouring and that's all I use it for, it doesn't shed too badly for me, I know some people complain about it shedding but very rarely does it ever shed on me, though maybe its because i only use it with powder products. Idk, either way I LOVE THIS BRUSH! :)

Blue Owl Necklace from Target

For the past month I have been wearing this along with my Cross Necklace that my boyfriend gave me for my birthday but I don't quite know what it is about this necklace, I love the color and its small and cute and perfect for spring.

L'oreal Liquid Liner in Black

I had always heard about how awesome this liquid liner is, if you like felt tip liners you will love this one! It is very easy to use, even for me (I suck at liquid liner). It stays on all day, the one thing i don't like about this product is that it dries to a satin finish, so it has that shine to it and I just set it with a matte black eyeshadow to fix that.

Elf Tinted Moisturizer in Nude

If you are going to try this out do not worry to much about your color selection just guesstimate and you will be fine. This reminds me a lot of the Jouer Moisture Tint, very very light coverage but just hides discoloration and evens out skin tone a bit. Doesn't look like your wearing makeup though i do recommend setting it with a powder if you have combo or oily skin. 

Stila Naturaleyes Eye Shadow Palette

I have been reaching for this palette all month long, mostly been using the color KITTEN all over the lid, GILDED GOLD in the crease and BARE on the brow bone, I love this palette, great color selection, the one thing is that these shadows are almost too soft, so they can have some fallout, just be careful not to dig your brush into the shadows as you will make them crumble. 

Hope you all enjoyed!
