    I've always been intrigued by Flower Beauty, the cosmetic line created by Drew Barrymore, so when they had some fabulous Black Friday promotions on the entire line, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to do a makeup haul.  The only product I've tried prior to this haul is the concealer, but the rest are all entirely new to me.  I hope you enjoying reading my thoughts on how all these products performed!

    December 13, 2018 / 0 Comments

    The Too Faced Gingerbread Spice Collection is easily my favorite holiday release from Too Faced, and possibly any makeup brand, this year.  I recently reviewed the Too Faced The Sweet Smell of Christmas Liquified Lipstick Set (blogpost here), which pairs beautifully with the Gingerbread Spice Palette.  Although this palette is currently sold out, I enjoyed it so much I thought I'd share my review with you anyways, which can help you decide whether or not to pick this up when it comes back in stock.

    December 4, 2018 / 0 Comments

    The holidays are a particularly exciting time for makeup lovers as brands tend to release plenty of new makeup sets and limited edition collections in time for Christmas.  I'm a huge fan of lipstick sets.  Being a makeup collector myself, I find it's pretty rare that I finish a full sized lipstick, so deluxe sample sets are a perfect way for me to try out different formulas and shades, without having to invest in a full sized.  When I spotted this adorable Too Faced The Sweet Smell of Christmas Liquified Lipstick Set at Sephora, I simply couldn't resist.

    Today, we'll be going over October's Product Empties!  You can find my Product Empties from August here.  Each of these products will be accompanied by a mini review, and recommendation on whether or not I would repurchase.  Lately, I've been trying to declutter my makeup collection, so you will see a lot of makeup being passed along :)

    Happy November, dolls!  Today, I'll be reviewing the contents of October’s Boxycharm!  You can find my review on September's Boxycharm here.  Boxycharm is my favorite beauty subscription box that provides 5-6 full-sized items for $21/month.  What I love about Boxycharm is that the value of all the luxury products always well exceed the $21 price (sign up here).

    Greetings from Phuket, Thailand!

    October 4, 2018 / 0 Comments

    Hiii dolls!  I hope you’re all having a fabulous week so far.  By the time this blogpost goes live, I’ll be flying up in the air, en route to Phuket, Thailand!  The hubby and I will be spending 13 nights in Karon Beach for some R & R and to celebrate my birthday :) While I’m in Thailand, the wifi access will be sporatic so I won’t be able to keep up with my regular blogging schedule, but please know that I haven’t forgotten about y’all ;) Once I’m settled back home in Arizona in mid-October, I will be catching up on all the blogposts I missed!  For more frequent updates…

    In one week, my husband and I will be traveling to Phuket, Thailand for the first time, ever!  To say we are excited would be a vast understatement.  Thailand has been on our bucket list for so long, and there is so much we want to do and see (and eat!).  To keep us focused and organized, I've compiled a list of destinations we hope to be able to visit, and that I'd love to share with you!
