Ready for Fall Haul

Who is ready for some football, cooler weather, and fall food aka Pumpkin? I am ready for all of that and so much more minus the pumpkin part. (Can't stand pumpkin foods...Sorry)

It's officially almost fall!

YAY!

Let me show you my new goodies! 

Bath and Body Works

2 for $22 candle sale! 

Harvest Coffee and Marshmallow Fireside.

Both have hints of vanilla and notes of what heaven smells like. 

Charlotte Russe

Jewelry 2 for $10

I have been wanting a large chunky gold chain necklace for a while. 

The earrings were calling my name. I was looking at studs but these we so sparkly that I just had to have them. 

Mostly from Target. Some Ulta though

• Nail Polish
• OPI-Cajun Shrimp
• OPI-Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok fine!
• Revlon-Impulsive
• Makeup
• Neutrogena Shine Control Primer
• Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse- Classic Ivory
• CoverGirl Clean Glow Bronzer- Spices

I am now beyond ready to switch from my summer products and break out my fall routine. Darker color lips and more smokey eyes. Rich jewel tone colors, with lots of metallic accents. 

For me the only way to get ready for it, is to bust out the fall candles. Some people may think that fall officially begins when Starbucks starts to serves Pumpkin Spice Latte's. Not in my case! 

What is your favorite way to get ready for fall?  

I am ready for fall!

Beauty Product Hoarder Diary: June favorites

It's that time again! 

Time to think over the past month as to what has been your most used products.

• Wet n Wild Fergie Eyeshadow Primer, For My Primas- This is the ONLY drugstore eyeshadow primer that WORKS. I swear, I have the hardest time removing my eyeshadow at the end of the day when I use this stuff. (Which is an awesome thing.) I only need a little dot to cover one eyelid. I never have to really touch up my eyeshadow during the day. Tip: Allow it a couple seconds to dry on your lid to set in place and then you can apply eyeshadow as you wish. 
• ELF Studio Blush, Pink Passion-  This has been my go to blush for a long time but because of this heat I have really been using it a lot more. I love the color and how brightly pigmented it is. 
• ELF Shimmering Facial Whip, Lilac Petal-  I first bought this a while ago when ELF products first appeared in Target (aka mecca). I thought this line has to be crap for this price. But boy, was I wrong. You cannot beat $1 for a facial highlighter. The perfect amount of shimmer and color plus it has a great fruity scent. Tip: use the small stipple brush to apply. 

• ELF Zit Zapper- I keep it by my nightstand next to my bed. When I ready to go to sleep, I run the roller ball all over my problem areas then all over my face. By the next morning, by skin looks 2x's better than it did when I went to bed. 
• Rimmel Scandal Eyes Lycra Flex Mascara-  Just all around awesome! 
• Revlon Colorstay Basecoat- I was introduced to this base coat by LaFemme5278 on YouTube. I don't use base coats on my nails. Number 1, I hated all the ones out there. Number 2, it was an annoying step. (I was already giving up who knows how much time to do them and let the dry why do I need to hassle with a step I always found unnecessary). I tried this with hesitation and was surprised. My nails do look better with a base coat. DARN IT!
• John Frieda Curl-Boosting Mousse- I have been using this for years especially during the summer when I only heat style my hair one day a week. My hair is straight and has a little curl when I get out of the shower. I let my hair air dry and then get some mousse to scrunch in. 
• Dial NutriSkin Replenishing Lotion, Extra Dry Skin-  I am picky about my lotions. They can't leave my skin feeling greasy bottom line. I have a list of lotions I like and ones I don't. This is the number 1 favorite of lotions I like. I never have the urge to wash my hands after applying the lotion. 
• Simple Eye Makeup Remover Pads- I use a regular makeup removing wipe to get rid of the majority of my makeup. I use these small makeup remover pads out of pure laziness. The thought of having to get out a cotton pad and put the remover on it. No. I like it already done for me. (College graduate right here.)

There you have it. My favorite things for the month of June. What were yours?

BB Cream Look

Want to know how to make your new BB Cream a part of your everyday make-up routine?

Here's how....

1. Apply the BB Cream onto skin using fingers or a foundation sponge. (If you really want to sheer out the coverage use a damp sponge.)
2. Take a cream eyeshadow, I like the Smokey shadow stick from Revlon in Torch to use for your eyes. Apply the lighter shade all over eye for a base. Then take the darker color and apply on crease of eyelids. Blend the product in with a brush until you like the way it looks. 
3. Line your upper lash line with eyeliner 
4. Smudge the darker color from the eyeshadow stick onto lower lash line for a smokey look
5. Mascara on both top and bottom lashes.
6. Place Dream Bouncy blush on the apples of cheeks. 
7. Tinted lip balm.
