OHH look what I got :) E.LF.

Gotta love A GREAT deal :) got the 10 free mineral eye shadows after I spent $25.

I love the 100 piece eyeshadow collection. So many ways to mix it up. The lip balm I got I LOVE! Its so smooth and soft. I also love the shimmer pallet I got as well. I used it to highlight my eye brows then my cheek bones.

NYX

So ladies I bought some of the NYX lipgloss colors today. Sad to say the one I was really looking forward to just doesn't make the cut. I bought LALA. I saw a fellow you tube beauty blogger show it off. It looked like this really pretty almost hot pink color when she swatched it. So I was super looking forward to it. But its actually a coral color. Which just doesn't look great on me.
So here is the pic from ulta. I bought it from there.
So as you can see its a pink shade, but when I got it out of my shipping bag, its for sure not this color. Its a coral shade. Which is almost is hard shade to pull off. So now it will just sit unused lol.
However the ones I got that I like are
 cosmo

This one has a very pretty shimmer and doesn't look as dark as in the picture. More of a neutral color with a bit of shimmer.

Then this pink color

gold pink
Its a super pretty pink color! Love it
  OHH and I LOVVVE the smell of these lip glosses! yummmmy!

Airbrush tan

So as I have said in my previous blog, Im trying to get more into self tanners. I have used The Loreal sublime air brush tanning spray off and on for over a yr. I don't get really dark with it. I get a pretty natural looking shade. More like a sun kissed look. I noticed if I spray it to heavy in certain areas thats where it will look like an orange tint. BUT thats if I dont follow directions and hold the can away from my body enough. I like it if I just need a quick touch of color. I personally spray it on my face. I close my eyes and spray it and cover my hair with a shower cap. It says not to use it on your face, but I do. LOL.
Here is what it looks like along with a product review I grabbed from the site for the product. My personal review is above.
This breakthrough airbrush system gives you professional inspired airbrush tanning results at home. 360° wide angle applicator provides continuous coverage of a greater area of skin at one time. The super-fine mist applies evenly and flash-dries, so there is not need to rub in.

  • Spray the mist slowly and continuously at arm's length. Do not rub in, formula will dry quickly
  • Let skin dry completely before putting on clothes
  • Use daily until you have achieved the desired level of tan, then use 1-2 times per week to maintain your tan
  • Best if used within 6 months of purchase

Here are a few of my favorite things

Well here I come summer. What are my most haves??


I love summer dresses. I love simple dresses for everyday wear with a cute pair of wedges. Then a cute pair of heels for going out. Jean capris and a pair of black gauchos are going to be a huge part of my summer wardrobe. Also cute flowy tank tops! Im in love the babydoll style tanks right now. There so pretty and feminine.


My zebra heels and pink snake skin are from charlotte russe



Love black gauchos. They go with everything and look super sexy with heels. You can get them just about everywhere, I buy a few each yr since I love them so much.

One place I love to get cute babydoll style tanks is hollister! I have also found cute ones at kohls in the jr's section.

My first coach purse




Im in love with this purse! hot pink linning and shimmering "c"'s all over

Tanning

Ever since having my daughter my skin has changed. I can't go into a tanning bed and get a tan. I can, but I itch for days after. So I have been searching all over and these 2 products I have seen and im wanting to try them.
Norvell Amber Sun Sunless Spray - Dark Bronzing Spray
Sun Labs DARK SELF TANNING MICRO SPRAY
I have read good stuff on both of them. Just not sure which one I should try first??

My current addiction

I find myself day after day searching the Internet for shoes! Im starting to get addicted. I haven't been much of a shoe girl until I got pregnant and knew I was having a baby girl. It brought out the girly side of me. I have always been a girly girl, but now I have more of a chance to show it off. I can get dressy and dress up my princess which is awesome! 
I have found awesome deals on charlotte russe currently. Normally they have a great deal going on with buy one get 1 for $10-$15 bucks. How awesome! So I have been buying cute wedge and sexy stiletto heels. Now I live in MN and wont wear the high heels in the winter but my shoes will be coming out to play this summer for sure.
