Hey guys! I'm back with another blog. This one is talking about Valentines Day! I hope everyone had an amazing Valentines Day wether you are single or you have a significant other.
My boyfriend went all out. This was our first valentines together. It started when we woke up. He kissed me and told me happy Valentines Day. He sent me flowers to my work, my favorite, Lilly's and tulips! They were gorgeous. My best friend also sent me a beautiful rose to my work place. My mom surprised me at work with a new purse and a new clutch! It was a great surprise. Those made me really happy. I get home from work and I walk into my house to find candles everywhere, a gift bag filled with goodies, and a 4 course meal served by my boyfriend. Decorations were up, food was delicious, and to end the night, he gave me a dozen cuppicakes from my favorite bakery. I felt super loved. I hope you guys felt as loved as I did and let me know in the comments what happened to you on valentines day!
Mucho love,
XoXo

Ipsy bag for February
Hey guys! I just got my Ipsy bag in. If you don't know what Ipsy is, it is an online site where you can pay 10.00 a month to get a bag full of goodies. I love Ipsy. I get to try new products that I would never usually try. I'm going to start doing a monthly Ipsy bag review. You can go on Ipsy.com and fill out a beauty quiz for free to determine what products best suit your taste. (I am not affiliated with this company. I just support them in what they do.)
This month you get a sleek black bag with a red inside which I love. I got 5 products in this months bag.
The first product is from Pop Beauty. It is a mascara. The packaging is super cute.
The next item is from Mica Beauty Cosmetics. It is a gel liner in black.
The next item is a primer from the brand pixi. Flawless and poreless primer.
Next, I got a sample eyeshadow pack from coastal scents in the colors Dark Goldenrod, Sunbeam, Golden Globe, and Dark Golden Olive.
Last but not least, I got a pack of lash cards to guard your makeup when putting on mascara.
I am quite impressed with the items I have received this month. Ill let you know of any of these products stood out to me when I use them and I will be back next month with a new Ipsy bag review for you!

L'oreal Paris Infallible Eyeshadow Review
Hey guys! I have a review for you today. I've been trying the new Infallible Eyeshadows from L'oreal Paris. I have to say these Eyeshadows are amazing. I love the velvety feel of them, the wonderful pigmentation, and the staying power. The packaging is very chic and it is easy to find the color I'm looking for in my makeup collection. The eyeshadows come with a little stopper that holds the pigments and keeps them pressed down. Make sure to keep this stopper. The eyeshadows are loose pigments that have been pressed down and they seriously feel like velvet. When you apply a primer to your eyes, the shadows will pop even more and the lasting power is incredible. I own 5 shades from the line and I'm thinking of going back to get more. The shades I own are:
Eternal sunshine- this color is like a shimmery yellow gold that looks great on the lid of the eye.
Endless pearl- this is a matte shade. It really helps to brighten the eye look when used on the inner corner of the eye and under the brow bone.
Bronzed taupe- this is a deeper shimmer color that looks great in the crease if the eye to help darken a look.
Amber rush- this is like a rose gold shimmer color that looks great on the lid. I love this color as I favor rose gold on anything!
Iced latte- this is a shimmery white color that can be used most anywhere to help brighten a look instantly.
There are many more colors in the line but these are the ones I own. By far, one of the best hits from the drugstore. They are around 5-6 dollars a piece and compare to department brands, if not better. If you own any of these or if you try them, let me know what you think of them!

Drugstore Haul
Hey guys!!
So, there are some great new things at the drugstore. I picked up a few makeup items the other day when I went browsing. I am gonna share what I bought and then later after I have tried some of the products, do a complete review on all the products so look forward to some great reviews coming your way. Let us see what I bought!
First, I bought the Revlon Color Stay Whipped Creme Foundation. The packaging is very nice on this. My only concern was finding the right shade because you cannot really see the color selection through the glass. Seeing as though it is glass, I have to be super careful with this when I travel. I went with the lightest shade in 150 Buff. We will see how this works out after I use it for a while.
Next, I also picked up the Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation. I have heard a lot about this recently and thought I would give it a go. It is also in a glass bottle and the packaging is minimal but nice. I got the color in 010 Fair. With that I also picked up the Revlon Nearly Naked Powder in 110 Ivory.
I also picked up the L'oreal Paris Infalliable Eyeshadow in Endless Sea. This is a beautiful Turquoise eyeshadow. I love the Infalliable eyeshadows because they feel like velvet. We will see if I end up loving this one as much as the others that I own (which I am going to do a blog post on as well).
Moving on to eyeliners, I picked up the Rimmel London Scandaleyes in the colors brown and Sparkly black. I have heard great things about these eyeliners.
Keeping in line with eye products, I also picked up another 24 hour Color Tattoo in the color Inked in Pink. I love the Color Tattoo line.
Fergie has come out with a Wet 'N' Wild collection. The only thing that peaked my interest was the Fergie Shimmer Pallet in the color Rose Champagne Glow. I have high expectations for this product. I hope it is not a total fail.
Moving on to lips. Oh, the amount of lip products coming out in the drugstores now. I picked up the L'Oreal Colour Riche Caresse Aqua Lip Lacquer in the color Pink Resistance. This looked interesting to me and when I swatched it on my hand, felt like water. I hope this product feels as good on the lips as it did on my hands.
I also picked up Maybelline Color Whisper Lipstick in Coral Ambition after hearing the buzz on these new lip products. I heard they are supposed to be Maybellines take on the Revlon Lip Butters which I so love. We will see.
I picked up two Kate Moss Lipsticks. I have heard nothing but good things around the blogging community about the Kate Moss lipsticks. I got the numbers 107 and 103.
I picked up the Rimmel Stay Glossy lipgloss in Timeless Allure. It looked interesting so I was like, lets have a go and see what it is all about.
Last but not certainly not least, Neutrogena Moisture Smooth Color Stick in Rich Raisin color number 80.
That is what I have picked up from the drugstore lately and look forward to some in depth reviews on these products in the upcoming blogs.
Stay sweet,
XOXO
