  • Boxycharm April 2018 Unboxing and First Impressions

    Boxycharm April 2018 Unboxing and First Impressions

    May 1, 2018 / 0 Comments

    Hi, y'all!  Greetings from sunny California!  Today, I'll be reviewing the contents of April’s Boxycharm!  I apologize for getting this review up so late in the month, but I have been super busy between home-buying (eeks!) and flying back to visit family in CA, to heading to the DR!  Thank you for bearing with me!  You can find my review on March’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.

    My Current Nighttime Skincare Routine for Dry Skin

    April 22, 2018 / 3 Comments

    I am very diligent about my skincare.  I never ever go to bed without washing my face...and going through all my skincare steps.  I wish I had the same strong discipline about going to the gym ;) It is important to nurture and nourish the skin as that to me, is even more important than any makeup you wear on top.

    Happy Saturday, dolls!!!  Today we will be going over the Empties from March and February.  I was out of the country for most of February so I was unable to get a post up then.  This will combine empties from both months 🙂  Each of these products will be accompanied by a mini review, and recommendation on whether or not I would repurchase. MAKEUP L’oreal Voluminous Carbon Black Mascara:  There is a reason this is a cult favorite.  The mid-sized brush adds length and volume with each buildable coat for va-va-voom lashes.  The formula is pitch black, dries quickly, and doesn’t smudge or irritate my eyes.  This is one of my top…

MAKEUP E.L.F. Makeup Mist & Set:  I have gone through numerous bottles of these as this is my favorite drugstore makeup setting spray, ever!  This mist extends the longevity of my makeup while smoothing out my skin when I’ve over-powdered.  This was also in my November’s empties and I am sure this won’t be the last time you see it.…
