Ipsy January 2016

Hey guys so today I am going to show you what I got in this months Ipsy bag!

Let's start with this Ofra Cosmetics Universal Eyebrow pencil

 I am really looking forward to trying this. The color looks pretty good.















Next up is theBalm Cosmetics Mr. Write (Now) in color deep purple

This is the only product that I used so far and I really like it. It stayed in my water line and under my eye all day without smudging. I'm so glad I got this!













Next is the Skone Cosmetics Smudger Brush

I love getting brushes SO much! I can't wait to see if I like this one. So far Ipsy hasn't disappointed with the brushes I've received in the past. So here's to hoping.













Next is the Hikari Cosmetics Cream Metallic Pigment Shadow
I've only swatched this but OMG so so pretty! I am way excited to create fun looks with this little guy.














Lastly I have the Lasting Smiles Lip Balm in Peppermint Creme

Honestly this is my least favorite product to get in my ipsy bag. I have already given this away to one of my sisters. I get and have so many lip balms that I didn't care for this one at all.













This is everything I got this month guys. I will only be keeping ipsy for one more month. I have ran my course with it and February will be my last month until I cancel it out.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a great day!

Fall Favorites!

Hey there gorgeous! Welcome to October! As I have mentioned a ton of times on my blog already, Fall is my all time favorite time of the year. I really really really love everything to do with Fall. I am so happy that it is finally October and that I can decorate for Halloween!

I have a fun plan for blog posts this month so stay tuned.

I wanted to do a fun tag today about my Fall Favorites. This was a tag created by the fabulous Jaclyn Hill on Youtube and my lovely friend Becci did it on her blog with a twist. My post will be Becci's version☺.

Question #1 Favorite Fall Candy
Candy Corn of course! I love candy corn so much, we go through it like nobodies business at my house. I know you either love it or hate it and I love it!

 

#2 Favorite Fall Candle

I love anything vanilla and adding pumpkin marshmallow to it just adds the perfect touch. If you haven't smelled this, you REALLY should. So yea it's the BBW Vanilla Pumpkin Marshmallow candle.

#3 Favorite Clothing/Accessory

I LOVE flannel it screams Fall! I have flannel in almost every color. This particular one is a new one that I've yet to wear. Boots are the BEST and most wonderful accessory! Shoes can be an accessory right?!

#4 Favorite Drink

Starbucks Caramel Machiatto! Oh it's SO delicious! I love it Iced, cold or in the fall I prefer it warm! Yum! Now don't get me wrong, just like everybody and their moms, I love a good pumpkin spice latte too BUT nothing is better than a yummy caramel machiatto.

#5 Favorite Fall lipstick/s

So here are 3 lipsticks that I love love love! 2 of these are VERY similar they are the MAC Cosmetics lipsticks in Diva and Sin, beautiful deep colors perfect for the fall. My new favorite Fall lipstick is the Ofra liquid lipstick in Miami Fever, I've been wearing it non stop since I got it.

#6 Favorite Blush

This is hands down my  absolute favorite Fall blush! It's the LORAC Baked Matte Satin Blush in Hollywood! It is gorgeous! Perfect for this time of the year.

#7 Favorite Fall Movie/s

I have two Fall Favorite movies Practical Magic and Hocus Pocus! These are my all time favorites! I play these non stop in the Fall. 

#8 Favorite Fall TV show/s

I couldn't pick just one on this question either so I decided on The Walking Dead and Scandal!

These keep me very entertained.

#9 Favorite Costume/s

Bride of Frankenstein...

 

 

My Gpsy costume, everyone said I looked like Esmeralda from Disney's Hunchback of Notre-Dame and lastly my Pippi Longstocking costume when everyone said I looked like the Wendy's Restaurant girl. Either way these were all my favorite costumes. I love Halloween SO much it is by far my absolute favorite Holiday! I dress up EVERY year!

#10 Favorite Thanksgiving Food
Turkey of course!  It's not Thanksgiving without the main dish, I love turkey!

#11 Favorite Fall Nail Polish
Julie G Stiletto. This is a beautiful grayish nude, so so pretty! I love Julie G polishes they stay on pretty long for being a regular polish.

#12 Favorite Fall Trend
um BOOTS, any kind of boots!
Here are some of my favorites and clearly I have a thing for black boots. I have a ton of them but these are my faves.

#13 Favorite Album/Song/Music
Guys this one was the hardest question for me to answer. It has to be my latin music! I love Cumbias, Merengue, Salsa and some Reggaeton. Multiple artist/albums. Now as for English music, in the Fall for whatever reason I love some good country music. I love Rascal Flatts, Lady Antebellum, Tim McGraw omg the list goes on and on.
So yea there you have it.

#14 Favorite Fall Treat
Cherry Pie, yes cherry, not pumpkin!

 #15 Zombies or Vampire?
This one cracks me up, Vampires duh! ha ha ha! Vamps rule!

Look at this pic, need I say more?! HELLO?! ha ha ha

I hope you enjoyed my Fall favorites, I had a blast putting this together. Let me know if you have a Fall Favorites post, I'd love to check it out.

Enjoy this wonderful Month!

Much Love,

September Monthly Favorites 2015

Why hello there guys, can you believe September is already pretty much over? How crazy is that? Seriously the older I get the faster time seems to go by, it's nuts!
Anywho, I love this month because it's the start of the Fall/Autumn Season, my absolute favorite time of the year!
Here are my monthly favorites for this month:

You might be thinking, not your planner again?! Nope it's the new cover I am LOVING and the month and day tabs. I am so sorry that the picture above is horrible, I couldn't get a good pic this month. 

 Here is a closeup of my cover and the tabs. I bought the the cover and the tabs on Etsy.

Simply click on pictures below and you will be taken directly to the shops I purchased these from.

Now for the tabs, I ordered the silver edition as seen pictured above. I did that so it matched the coils of my planner ☺. (click on picture below to view sellers shop).

Ok next up is the much LOVED and highly used Urban Decay Smoky palette:

This is by far in my opinion the best and must have Naked palette out there. I won't go into too much detail on this on because I did a full post and review, check it out. Click here to see it.

Next up is the Becca Champagne Pop colab with Jaclyn Hill.

This is the best highlight of life, I love this SO much! This is another product that I did a full review on. Click here to view it.

Next up is a brush from Sigma. The small eye liner-E10 brush

For all that know me, you know that I love me some eye liner! This brush is so perfect! I love EVERYTHING about it. You can purchase it on the sigma's website like I did for $14. This has a 5 out of 5 rating because it's amazeballs!

Next up is the MAC blacktrack fluidline gel eyeliner.

I'm not going to say it's the best gel liner I have ever tried BUT I do love it. It doesn't smear, it stays on all day and it's super easy to apply, especially with the brush mentioned above. You can buy this at a MAC store or online like I did. It's $17.50 but it lasts forever!

Next up is another pretty cool brush. This one is a Sephora brand. The Pro Angled Shadow Brush#13

When I am in a hurry and want to throw on some definition in my crease and don't want to stress over the application I reach for this brush. It makes getting in the crease super easy and because it's fluffy it blends my eye shadow out beautifully! This can be purchased at Sephora online or in stores for $20 I actually got it for $11 on sale. Hurry and pick yours up, not sure how long the sale will last.

Next up is a fragrance from Givenchy: Amarige

This is a repurchase for me, this perfume will always be in my collection. I have a wonderful memories associated with this perfume. My aunt who passed away from cancer was the first one to introduce me to this fragrance and to give me my first bottle. It will forever remind me of her. I miss her so much!

Here are the notes about this perfume:

Amarige is the symbol of femininity, radiating and bursting with happiness, a zest for life and generosity. The Amarige woman is radiant and open-minded; her heart-felt joy is evident from her spontaneous, charming smile. Inspired by that very same woman this perfume contains a cheerful, tender and sensual flower bouquet (Gardenia, Mimosa, Precious woods).

It's a lovely scent and I would recommend it to everyone.

Last but certainly not least we have the GORGEOUS Ofra Liquid Lipstick in the shade Miami Fever This is a Colab with the beautiful Kathleen Lights on YouTube.

I  have been wearing this lipstick NON stop, literally! I love EVERYTHING about this liquid lipstick, the color is stunning, it last forever and it's not over drying on the lips!

I love how it looks on my complexion it's perfect guys. It is a limited edition so get yours before they are gone. I purchased mine on the Ofra website. 

Hope you enjoyed my favorites for this month, let me know if you have a post on your monthly favorites and I would love to check them out. 

Have a wonderful week.

Love,
