Favorite Etsy Shops for planner stickers

Hey guys, so as many planner addicts like myself I LOVE LOVE LOVE stickers. I have purchased and continue to buy a ton of stickers from Etsy. The shops I will be mentioning today have no idea who I am or that I am suggesting there shops. The shops have great communication, quality stickers and most deliver in a decent time frame. I have purchased from a few shops that I will never buy from again for multiple reasons unfortunately but these guys you REALLY should check out.

These are in no particular order but let's start with one of the first shops I ever purchased from

I love that these shops and have purchased from them on multiple occasions. I will branch out and try other shops and let you know on future posts. Please let me know if you know of any that you would recommend that I didn't list. I want great quality sticker, affordable prices and those shops that offer discounts from time to time.  I always buy when I can get some sort of discount, why not right?!

Happy Shopping!

My positivity journey!

Hey guys so usually I don't share a lot about my personal life on social media. Honestly I mainly share pictures of my family or posts of achievements. As for drama or illnesses or anything negative I steer clear of it. There is no point in telling everyone my business. If you happen to be one that likes to share everything, I am not saying it's a bad thing, it's simply not my thing.

I have to admit that I haven't always been a positive person, I've struggled with it my entire life. I know a lot of people like me and I thought I would share some stuff that might help someone. 

Recently I got a health scare and it has made me appreciate the smaller things in life. I know it's very cliche and most will think that it's silly. Really though it has changed my perspective in life. I love my life, my son, my husband and my amazing friends! In your deepest time of need, those that truly care will always be by your side.

I can't encourage you enough to forget about the small things that truly don't matter. It may seem like life kicks you down and it's hard to get up, but have faith and keep on keeping on. Easier said then done of course but I encourage you to simply try. After my health scare I have been feeling less anxious less worried and have REALLY tried to be more positive.

Things that I recommend that have really helped me include:
  • Talking 
  • Walking
  • Going out with my friends
  • Date nights with my husband
  • Treating my self (buying crap I don't need...hee hee)
  • Planning (yes I am a total nerd)
  • Visiting my loved ones
  • Listening to music
  • Taking bubble bath's
  • Going to the movies with my son 
Everyone has different ways of coping you know, dealing with stuff, find what makes you tick. I usually also like to have working out or hiking on my list, but haven't been able to, hopefully soon enough I will be back at it.

I hope that if it's one thing I can do, it's to instill in my son the confidence to know that there isn't a single problem in this world that can't be overcome. I also hope to help at least one person that might be experiencing something similar.

I share my little story without going in depth just to say BREATH, this too shall pass!
I thank god everyday for allowing me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. I am beyond grateful for my family and my friends.

Reach out if you need someone, a friend, a stranger, anyone! Never give up on life.
May you all find your motive for moving forward.

Best Regards; your blogger pal,

Plan with Me June Monthly Layout 2016

Hey guys, it's that time again! Time to share my monthly layout so here goes.
I did a full blown Patriotic theme in honor of Independence Day! 
I really love how this turned out. 
This is a fun National Holiday and I am proud to live in America, land of the free!

Stickers are from everywhere so I can't really pin point any. I love creating these fun spreads and sharing them with everyone. As usual I only share my pre-pen planning as some stuff I add to my planner is personal. 

Thank you SO much for stopping by!

XOXO

L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation

Hey guys I hope you all had a fantastic long 4th of July weekend. I know I did!

Today I wanted to share my own personal review and thoughts for the L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Glow Foundation.
This product retails for $12.99 and comes with 1.0 FL. OZ

Description:
(from the L'Oreal Website)

Discover the new pro finish of longwear: up to 24 hour wear with a hydrating glow. Lightweight and creamy, this long lasting foundation goes on smooth with a glow finish that lasts. With medium coverage, it instantly hides imperfections for a clear complexion. The hydrating foundation with SPF is ideal for normal to dry skin.

It comes in 12 different shades.
201 – Classic Ivory
202 – Creamy Natural
203 – Nude Beige
204 – Natural Buff
205 – Natural Beige
206 – Buff Beige
207 – Sand Beige
208 – Sun Beige
209 – Caramel Beige
210 – Classic Tan
211 – Creme Cafe
212 – Cocoa


The color I picked up is 205 in Natural Beige.  This is actually a great summer color for me but definitely a shade darker than my regular color.

So this product has so many mixed reviews but I know I really wanted to try it. For starters I will remind you that I do have combo skin. My t-zone get oily but the rest of my face is normal to even dry at times.  I love love love the natural finish!

PROS:
  • Lightweight 
  • Easy to apply
  • Blends well
  • Long Lasting
  • Great Pigmentation
  • Affordable
  • Noncomodegenic
  • SPF15
 CONS: 
  • Sheer Coverage (Medium Coverage at most)
  • Can cause break outs. I know I broke out a bit.
  •  Poor shade selection
  •  Emphasizes pores. 
So as you can see there are more pros then cons however the cons are pretty bad unfortunately! I actually really like this product and I'm sad that it broke me out. I am torn about continuing to try it for that very reason.  So I hope this helped you guys thinking of getting it. Please know that I have super acne prone skin, so if you don't give it a try.

Have a fantastic week!
