Happy December friends,

I’m loving all the holiday spirit(s) I’ve been seeing lately and I want to keep it up. Today, I’m bringing you my first night of “Saturday Night Holiday Cocktails” and this is Week 1! The drink of choice tonight is the Cranberry Ginger Ale Mimosa. This is the perfect drink to make Christmas morning during brunch. This is the easiest drink to make and sooooo yummy!Here’s what you need to get in the spirit:

  • Canada Dry Cranberry Ginger Ale

  • Korbel Champagne Sweet Cuvée

  • Ocean Spray Cranberry Juice

And that’s it! Honestly, I just filled the glass halfway with champagne, threw in the Cranberry Ginger Ale, and then a splash of cranberry. I wanted more champagne but you can do it however you desire. The best part is you don’t even have to mix it cause the bubble will mix it for you. Enjoy friends and let me know if you try this at home! ✨

Go-To Tuesday

Alrighty friends, I’m so excited to share with you my go-to false eyelashes that you NEED to try. I’m so obsessed with these Moxie Lash false lashes and magnetic liner. They are so easy to use and will change your falsies game for good! How to use? It’s so simple, you apply the liquid lines along your lash line (I usually apply it over my usual eyeliner). The liner is slightly chalky as hard to get a clean line which is why I use my usually eyeliner first. Then you wait to minutes for your eyeliner to dry. Once dry, apply your lashes to the eyeliner. That’s it! It’s so simple and worth the money. It’s slightly pricier but you aren’t applying mascara to these so they can be worn long. I highly suggest these to anyone that loves falsies but doesn’t love applying them because of the glue. Click the link below to be take to the link to the product.

Hello friends and Happy November,

I’ve been testing out a lot of skincare products recently because my skin has been out of control. I’ve been trying prestige and drugstore skincare products and I want to do a special spotlight on these fruity skincare finds. First up:

Fresh’s Sugar Strawberry Exfoliating Face Wash

This face scrub is something I had my eye on all summer. When I finally bought it, I couldn’t wait to try it. The consistency is a gel form with sugar and strawberry looking seeds within it. The scrub is fairly light but feels extremely cleansing. You get a little bit of a tingle to your skin in mis use that feels like the product is doing its job. I feel that Fresh’s scrub has given my skin great improvement and I highly suggest, ESPECIALLY if you love strawberries and the scent like me.

Clean & Clear Lemon Juice Toner

The other fruity themed skincare item is this lemon scented toner. My skincare routine has been lacking a toner for a while and I must say, I’m certainly glad to be back using one again. I LOVE the smell of lemons and using this product is so refreshing and it works wonders. It’s ridiculous how much extra dirt it gets off your face after you remove makeup AND wash it. This product is a must have if you’re in need of a great toner for a low price.

Purchase either of those products here!

I’m so about a fruit scented skincare item, what about you? Let me know what kind of skincare you’d like to scented like your favorite fruit!

With Fall just around the corner and the perfect weather to cuddle up, who can deny a perfect night to treat yourself to some snack cookies and a Halloween movie!? I know I cannot! My favorite snack cookies to munch on are the Chips Ahoy Chewy Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup cookies. They are so yummy and perfect for my friends that love Reese’s as much as me! The best part about these cookies, in my opinion, is that they are chewy like they just came out of the oven without the burning of your mouth. The packaging also makes snacking on the couch with a blanket and your loved ones so much easier. With its resealable container, you can snack away without worrying about spilling your snack everywhere. So treat yourself by bundling up, putting on Hocus Pocus, crack open some wine, and enjoy these delicious snack cookies. You won’t regret it! 😉

Here it is friends, my homage to summer coming to an end. I’m sharing with you my go-to ice cream flavor. Who are we kidding, I’m still gonna eat ice cream all year long because chocolate chip cookie dough is just way too good to skip out on! Haha BUT I’m here to share with you the reasons why I love it. First off, if I could, I’m the type of person that could eat a whole stick of raw cookie, anybody else? So to be able to eat cookie dough that is safe to eat AND with ice cream, how could anyone be unhappy with life? In addition, I love chewy chocolate chip cookies so eating the cookie dough is like the best of both worlds. If you got this far into this blog, then good for you because it’s literally just a blog about how damn good chocolate chip Cookie dough ice cream is. Share with me below your favorite ice cream flavor!

GO-TO TUESDAY

It’s that time of year again, back to school! Whether you’re are a Mom, student, or just a gal (like me) that loves back to school shopping then this is a post you’re gonna want to read about. I’m sharing my Go-to Pens with you, the Crayola Washable Gel Pens. What I love most about these are the multiple colors offered within the pack. I’m the type of person that likes to color code my planner and different projects I work on. So this pack of pens was perfect for me. I also love that the pens glide so easily onto the paper. They are easy to use and super smooth to write with. In addition to that, these pens come with 14 different colors in a pack included black and dark blue. I love the variety included within the pack and the price is great for the amount they offer. They are offered on prime and you can order them and get them just in time for school starting. Click the photo above for the link to these colorful and fun pens!

Well hello,

Do you ever notice yourself always grabbing the same color lipsticks over and over again? Cause, same! Then, I’ll make a conscious effort to try one of my other millions I own and then usually regret it. So I figured I’d share with you my top 5 lipsticks that I’m always using. Let’s get started:

The Lipsticks:

(Links to products are connected to the photos and hyperlinks.)

  1. Fenty Beauty Stunna Lip Paint in “Uncuffed” : This gorgeous mauve-y pink is perfect for day to night transition. It’s such a stunning lip color on because it’s not your typical bubble gum girly pink. It’s quite a sophisticated pink and would look great on women of many ages.
  2. Maybelline Super Stay Matte Ink in “Ruler” : If you follow along with my Go-To Tuesday’s, you would know that this is my go-to red lipstick! I’m so obsessed with it and don’t know what I’ll do when this color is discontinued. Up until this point, there were only a few red lipsticks that looked good on me but they always smeared so quickly. In that case, you have to worry about applying powder to your lipstick and constantly be check on it and making sure it isn’t all over your face. BUT, I don’t have to worry one bit about this matte lip ink. This lipstick stays on ALL DAY and barely needs reapplication. The formula that Maybelline has come up with is truly incredible and I highly suggest it to anyone!
  3. Ciaté London Glitter Flip Lip in “Infamous” : Glitter Flip has been around for a couple of years now (which is why mine doesn’t have the logo on it anymore). I’m a big fan of anything that is shiny and glittery which is why I wanted to originally try this out a few years ago. This color it’s also a mauve but after two minutes, you press your lips together and glitter appears. This glitter in the lipstick is not a look that everybody loves for themselves, but if you do, this is the one for you! In addition, it’s currently on sale on Sephora for $9.50 in most of the colors.
  4. NYX Slip Tease in “I Woke Up Like This” : If you’re in need of an amazing nude, satin lipsticks then look no further. This is my lipstick that looks great with anything I’m wearing. It looks very natural while still giving a slightly dramatic vibe. I hate the look of a nude lipstick that makes me look dehydrated so that’s why I love this lip. Its dark enough that you can see it in pictures and far away but subtle enough as well. Overall, it’s a solid nude lip choice.
  5. Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lipstick in “Trendsetter” – Sometimes, when applying lipsticks, that pink and red simply won’t do. That’s where my Huda Beauty Liquid Matte Lip in “Trendsetter” comes in handy. This lipstick is a brown nude with a little orange undertone. You can tell by the swatches that it’s similar to the NYX lipstick but still darker. This is definitely a lipstick I use when I’m in search for a more dramatic look. This liquid lip stays on for a good while too. Definitely a great choice!

Swatches:

And that’s it! Share with me below what’s your absolute favorite lipstick, I’m not opposed to adding more to my list. 😉
