Ulta Birthday Haul

My birthday recently passed and one of my generous aunts gifted me with an Ulta gift card. I was so thrilled and I planned on saving it for a rainy day. I then realized I lost my beloved eyebrow pencil so to the Ulta website I went!

Half & Half: Pink Summer Lips

Back again with another Half & Half post! I am really enjoying these and plan to feature some face products in the next post. This time I am featuring some of my favorite pink lippies for summer. You can't go wrong with a beautiful bright pink lip! Here are some options for beauties on a budget and beauties looking to splurge.

Half & Half: Peach/Coral Summer Lips

Just a quick little post to share my top ten peach/coral lippes for the summer.  Half are drugstore products and half are high end products.  I thought this would be a fun way to showcase several options for every budget!

May 2013 Favorites & Fails

The month of May has come and gone and I am excited to share my monthly favorites and fails! Since shifting my focus mainly to my blog, I thought these posts would be a fun way to document my beauty routine while sharing beloved products (and not so beloved products) with others.

Just a quick disclaimer, the products featured have all been used by me and use is quite apparent in the pictures. I was going to pretty up all the products but this is what they look like in my makeup storage and how they look after I've used them. So this is an uncensored edition of Favorites and Fails.  ;)

My CVS Beauty Clearance Sale Haul (Spring 2013)

I patiently wait for the CVS Beauty Clearance Sale which comes around twice a year.  I stalk the Nouveau Cheap blog (http://nouveaucheap.blogspot.com) and review the master list prior to setting foot in the store.  During past sales, I have stocked up on quite a few products for gifts and future giveaways when I was more active on my YouTube channel.  I would say I have gone overboard in the past and my husband will agree.  For this sale, I decided to only purchase things I feel I would use, no duplicates of products and no stockpiling for the sake of a good deal.  I think I succeeded in sticking with the plan!  Check out my haul after the jump!

Loving This Right Now: Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Lemonade (047)

Hi again!  Just a quick post to share a new addition to my ever growing lippie collection.  I finally found the new Revlon Lip Butter in Pink Lemonade at a local CVS.  It is a very subtle, soft, pretty light pink.  It is not the most pigmented lip butter but is great for pulling together a casual look or for a polished work look.
