So then we went to Sephora...

-
Hello :) 

So I have to share this with all of you because I am BEYOND excited right now!! Today is my little sister's 13th birthday (Happy Day of Birth Mary!) and we decided to go on a little shopping trip to Sephora aka the mothership. Mary, being a beauty insider member, was eligible to get a gift for her birthday and my mom needed some new products! This is what happened... we became VIB's...

 So most of these products are my mother's because she really needed some new products to combat her mild rosacea, which causes her redness on her cheeks. 

So she got a great new foundation which is the Clinique Even Better Compact, a facial moisturizer called Dermadoctor Calm, Cool, & Corrected, the Philosophy's Purity Facial Cleanser, a Pro-Angled Contour Brush, and finally the new Clarisonic Aria Sonic Skin Cleansing System. We each actually got our own specialized brush and are going to share it (but it is mostly for my mom and Mary because I will be at college). 

Mary got the Benefit They're Real! Mascara and the Watt's Up Highlighter. 

I got the Urban Decay De-Slick Setting Spray which was on my July Wishlist (eek so excited) and the Philosophy's Purity Facial Cleanser as well.


My lovely new items!

Grace-facing :) Love this chick.

So that's it!! Have you tried any of these products? Let me know what you think :)

    I just spent an excessive amount of time and money at Sephora too. The issue is that I got about the same volume of stuff, just all for myself.

    Happy birthday to your little sister! I have the first generation Clarisonic and I love it so I bet the newer ones are even better! I hope you all enjoy it!

Monthly Favorites | August

SO, after over a week of not having my laptop to be able to blog on, I finally have it returned and fixed! I am so relieved and now without further ado, here are all of monthly favorites from August, starting with the beauty products and a book: - Philosophy's Purity Facial Cleanser is amazing! I used it for about three weeks with the Clarisonic and now that I am at college again (without my mother's Clarisonic), I have been using it just by itself. As I work it into a lather, I can feel my skin being refreshed. I really enjoy the general scent of it and so far I like how it has been cleaning my face.  - Now, everyone and their mother has been talking about the Maybelline Color Tattoos and I thought I would hop on the bandwagon and give them a whirl. I really have been enjoying 'Bold Gold' and 'Tough as Taupe'. They are extremely matte and I have been finding that I don't need to wear an eye primer underneath because the shadow remains matte a

Flower Love

My little sister Mary, who is almost 13, makes headbands, bows, and clips for her hair out of cut material from old shirts and cheap fake flowers from the store... and they are amazing !! She is already a beauty/fashion guru in the making. I feel so inspired by her to be more creative with styling my hair, while saving a bit of money :) So here are some photos of her clips and headbands: Flower Love was inspired by a photo we saw on Pinterest*. She immediately wanted to recreate the look with a fishtail braid when we saw it because she just bought some daisies that looked quite similar. Here's me casually sitting in some grass modeling her work... (Secret: I was actually wearing boxer shorts underneath this dress and a car filled with attractive guys  drove by... I was kind of maybe a bit mortified because when standing you could definitely see the boxers. Needless to say, we ran and hid). Flower Power are two of her flower headbands that, in my opinion, are just

August Music!

Hello there!  Here is the music I have been loving this month. I have been listening to a lot of indie rock and alternative bands lately. If you haven't heard of some of these, check them out and let me know what you think! Ellie Goulding - I am assuming that anyone who hasn't been living underneath a rock has heard of my girl Ellie. She has been my favorite singer for the past five years and I can't believe how big she has gotten! Her music is so inspiring, beautiful, and exciting. She keeps cranking out new music and it is so incredible. Here are three of her latest singles: Burn You My Everything Ritual American Authors - I have been listening to them on repeat. They are an American-indie rock band from Brooklyn, NY and they just have such a great vibe. I definitely think their song "Best Day of My Life" has been my summer song! Check these out: Best Day of My Life Best I Could Do Believer Foals - These guys are awesome. They are an
