Update on my Baby Girl!

Hey Ladies, sooo when I was gone I obviously left out on keeping all of those interested updated on how my little one is doing! Kailei turned one this month, on the 2nd. It seems as if the time flew! I can't believe that my little baby has grown so big and seems to do new things every day now!

Her hair curls like this just by me twirling my fingers around her hair, lucky girl!

This was Kailei on her birthday in the photo above!

Little Chunk!

The picture above was actually taken today, we both love the park!

Trying to drink my coke, wasn't open though ;)

A few milestones Kailei has reached since my last post of her:

2 bottom front teeth!
Crawling
Walking!
Saying more syllables
Shakes her head "No"
Claps her hands


Wow right?! She is my angel 0-:)
Hope you enjoyed this post of her and pictures as much as me !

MAC Flirt & Tease Blush

A couple of weeks ago I was on the search for a new blush, can't say I'm not still looking for the perfect one. . . but I did find one that was nice for now.

I went to the MAC Counter after I saw a YT Guru use Flirt & Tease blush. I loved the way it looked on her in the video. I like the way it looks on myself as well but it's nothing too different from my Bare Minerals blush in "True". They both look a lot the same (Sorry I didn't take a picture of that blush for this post but it is somewhere on my blog already).















So Flirt & Tease is a sheertone shimmer blush. It looks somewhat dark in the pan, reminiscent of a beautiful shade of plum. Applied it is exactly what it says, sheer and shimmery the color applied comes off somewhat rosy gold with a hint of plum. Overall I'm satisfied with this blush I think I'm just on the search for one that it is a little more matte and not so sheer. I'm sure I'll reach for this blush plenty though, I have been ever since I bought it everyday I apply my makeup. The good thing about it is it goes well for an everyday look, not overpowering at all.

Any recommendations for a good blush??

Jumpin' Jade - Favorite Fall/Winter Nail Polishes?

Every season brings a long new color trends, new smells, new holidays, new feelings, new clothes, a time for change.

As I was shopping for a few household goods etc. this morning I happened to spot some beautiful dark polishes on one of the beauty aisles... from dark plums, deep burgundy's, browns, and finally the one I personally picked "Jumpin' Jade" A beautiful emerald green color. It's pretty for fall and beautiful for winter. The shade actually reminds me of a Christmas tree.

This is a Sally Hansen Insta-Dri (Fast Dry Nail Color) Polish. I already own a couple of these and my experience is always great. I literally only have to put on one coat to achieve the color I wanted. The apply so smoothly, dry fast, and have a wide range of beautiful colors to choose from. The price at Wal-Mart was $4.50 (USD).

Now on to a few pictures.. *I went a little picture happy* haha.










What are your favorite shades for fall and winter?

Urban Decay Book of Shadows lll

Hello Dolls.

I have ton's of things to post about, but I'd like to start with the most exciting (to me anyways) my newest edition to my makeup collection - the Urban Decay book of Shadows III! Yay!! I finally got got one of these palettes, it is my first book of shadows I've gotten my hands on. . . all thanks to my lovely sister. She gave it to me as a gift for my birthday - I turned 23 Yesterday! And.... my little girl turned 1 years old this past Saturday! (Pictures soon) Time flies!!!

Onto the palette -

Beautiful detailing - This is a LE item so if you want it, hurry! Cost: $54 USD

The mirror actually has two little lights on each side! You can't tell from the pictures though.

I think I need to adjust my camera settings because this picture(s) do these colors NO justice. They are so POW in your face *haha* in real life. This picture however is making them look a little too dull!

I'm sure you didn't have to guess these colors would be very vibrant and pigmented!

Beautiful gift box =)

,


When you look at this palette it's hard not to see the infinite possibilities of looks just waiting for you to create! I think Urban Decay is known for their bold beautiful colors. This palette definitely doesn't leave you wanting more because it includes great colors, two 24/7 glide on pencils (Ransom (beautiful purple) and Zero (Black), Mini UDPP, and a mirror! The only thing you do need that is not included is of course, eyeshadow brushes.

Look forward to me doing looks using this palette in upcoming posts!

Did you get this palette, if so what do you think?


P.S


Look for a Falsies giveaway in my next post! I was contacted by a PR and sent False lashes to give away ages ago, so I really want to get that up for you all!

Montagne Jeunesse Facial Masks

Just wanted to share a great product I love purchase from Ulta when I get the chance to...

Montagne Jeunesse facial masks... these little packets are amazing... the first one I tried was chocolate... it smells AMAZING the texture and smell actually kinda remind me of a whipped cake frosting... yummy right? If you are not a chocolate fan this would not be for you... the smell could be overwhelming to those who are sensitive to certain scents... but to me I loved it... which I didn't have to wash it off.

The face tonic mask as well as the anti stress mask were very nice as well... they both have nice scents... as well as a delightful cooling sensation.

They are reasonably priced at around $2-3 dollars each, not bad for a at home facial, huh?









Definitely try these if you get the chance!!



Having healthy skin isn't an option when your trying to get the best makeup application, so start with the right products. With clean moisturized skin, you can't go wrong!

I Like it Like That *

Hello all! Long time no post once again... I do apologize, I guess it's the summer heat that has gotten me into a little bit of a lazy mood. But I do have some more post's planned in the near future of products I recently purchased, look's, and a giveaway! So hopefully I'll have a couple up within the next few days!

On to what this post is about, as you can tell by the title "I Like it Like That" it's going to be about MAC's new In the Groove collection.



The MAC counter I went to was already sold out of Stereo Rose, the one item I guess was super hyped, so everyone made sure to pre order, therefore I wasn't able to get my hands on it. I am however happy with what I did get, not sure if I'll go back for more from the collection yet or not.

So the two items I picked up yesterday were of course the lipstick "I like it like that" and "Chillin" lipgloss, both are creemsheens.

I loooooveeee the shade of the lipstick. I saw "Jazzed" (one I know a lot of you are likely to pick) but I choose to lean more towards the lilac tone. The formula of course is so creamy and smooth goes on perfect, and the color is BEAUTIFUL! If you can get your hand's on this do it while you still have a chance.

"Chillin" was actually purchased by my sister for me, I wasn't going to buy it right away, but it was super sweet of her to go ahead and get it for me :) The MUA who worked with me said it's perfect for toning down pinks, purples, red's etc.

What did you or do you plan to get from this collection??

Bath & Body Works Haul

Hello Ladies :) So today I thought I would just quickly share a few things I picked up yesterday at Bath & Body Works. They are having their Semi Annual SALE so pretty much everything I got was a steal.



Orange Sapphire Cooling Mist - Sale price - around $3

This spray is new to me. It is described as their signature cooling mist with soothing Aloe Vera - the perfect way to cool, refresh, and condition summer skin. Sounds great right? The scent Orange Sapphire is supposed to be insipred by the beaches of Brazil. To me it smells like a sweet yet tangy orange fruit. MmmmMmmmMMm, I love it! I wish I would have picked up the body scrub in this scent, I may go back to grab it while I still can!

Mentha Lip Tint in "Pink Mint" - Sale Prince - around $1.80

This is just a very nice lip gloss that feels soooo nice when applied to your lips. It has that perfect minty cooling sensation, and leaves your lips feeling conditioned and not sticky like other glosses may.

Aromatherapy Sleep Pillow Mist - Sale price - around $ 3.50

O-m-g. I have seen this in their store multiple times but never thought to pick it up. I am so glad I did now! I LOVE this stuff. Just a few sprays of this before you lay your head to your pillow and boom, it's like heaven while you are falling to sleep. The scent I picked up is "Warm Milk & Honey" it smells soooo nice.

Lastly I picked up two candles. One I think is just the Bath and Body Works brand, in the scent "Nectarine Mint" it smells delicious. I can't wait to burn this but I have a few I need to finish off first. Sale price - $ 11

The one I lit up when I got home is a Slatkin & Co Candle in the scent "Pineapple Orchid" this is somewhat of a sweet & fruity scent. I have it burning in my living room which is a very big room since the kitchen and living room are not separated by a wall. I believe these candles will burn better in a smaller room. I have had one of their candles before that I burned in my bathroom I really loved. This time I'm not picking up the scent as well when it burns. Sale price - around $5

MAC Coral Crepe Paint Pot - Massive Update

Hello!

So I have been away from blogging for what feel's like forever, but I'm back, and hopefully will have more great posts to share with everyone.

UPDATE:

So over the past few weeks I actually have been up to quite a bit! I went to visit my sister who is in the Air Force stationed in Enid OK. It was my first trip flying by myself so I was pretty nervous... I'm not big on traveling by airplanes. I flew into Dallas TX, and then Wichita Falls Kansas, from there my sister picked me up and we drove up to OK. The occasion was my sister was going to find out her next assignment, and she actually got her first choice which was to fly KC-135's and be stationed in Hawaii, so happy for her! Over the course of the weekend we drove back down to Dallas and spent the day at Six Flags Hurricane Horror Water park and I got the chance to see Downtown Dallas as well as it's night life. The next day in Dallas we went to The Galleria (Mall) which is by far the most AMAZING MALL I have been to. They have every store you could imagine... we only covered about 1/3 of the mall in the time we were there and that was about 4 hours! Unfortunately I forgot to pack my camera for the trip :(


On to Beauty

I recently purchased MAC's Coral Crepe Paint Pot.
I absolutely am loving ittttt! It's such a beautiful coral color with hint's of shimmer. it's going to look great with a look incorporated with some neutrals! This is my first paint pot and I can tell it's going to be an amazing base amazing base and added piece to my little collection. I can also tell that it's going to have to be removed with a makeup remover, water won't do the trick. It stained my wrist a little yesterday when I swatched it.







Summer Day's...

Lately me and Kailei have been hittin' up the pool with my friend Ashley and her son Tysin! I've been enjoying soaking up the sun's ray's and then cooling off in the water with my little girl. It's so much fun to play with her in the water and watch her reactions -- she loves it!! She is scooting herself forwards now as well as pulling herself up!! >:o I can hardly believe she will be 1 year's old in four more months!~

I painted my nails the other day.... OPI's You Don't Know Jacques. Excuse the sloppiness. I also found my one of my favorite rings that I thought I was lost and gone, it's a beautiful snake ring by Guess I bought a couple of years ago.






Kailei at the pool!

She loved the pool Stairs!

Chillin' in her floatie and sun hat!
