Influenster: Blossom Box!

Today; 
I am going to share my thoughts on the Influenster Blossom Voxbox

This is what I saw when I first opened the box


The first items I got were these BEANiTOS chips. I am not a fan of beans so I really did not like them that much, however the chipotle BBQ flavor was really good because all I really tasted was BBQ. These are a great substitute for regular potato chips if you are in the market for something like these. 

Next, I received this hair food shampoo. Let me start out by saying it smells AMAZING! Also it has a pump, which you can't see in the picture but it makes things soooo much more simpler. It lathers really well, does a great job at keeping my hair clean and oil free. It is about $10 at Target.

Next, I got this mini airbrush legs in the color medium. To be honest I gave this to my sister, the color is wayyyyy to dark for me and I did not want to end up looking like an Oompa Loompa this summer. 

Next, I was so happy that I got some sunscreen, since I am so white I burn really easily so sunscreen is my best friend in the summer. Especially SPF 30. I will definitely get some great use out of this.

Next, Bear Naked granola is amazing in general. I have purchased this brand before but not this product. I got the flavors, Sea Salt Caramel Apple and Coconut Almond Curry. I had the caramel flavor and it was really delicious, it had dried caramel apple pieces in it and those were to die for. I ended up throwing away the other flavor since I had coconut and no one in my family liked it either. I will be purchasing the caramel flavor in the future though.

Next, I received an eyeshadow pencil from NYC, it is just a typical brown eyeshadow pencil. It is good to lightly put in your crease and blend out.

Lastly, I got this pasta zero. It was just regular pasta noodles that I cooked up and put some trader joes pasta sauce on, and had for lunch. Nothing too special but it has better ingredients in it than regular pasta so I could see myself purchasing it again.

Thank you Influenster for sending me these items. If you want to join up and receive free items, just go to

Revlon Colorstay Foundation & Sigma Angled Kabuki

Today;
I am going to share my favorite foundation and brush

The Foundation I use is the Revlon ColorStay.
The Brush is the popular Sigma Kabuki Brush.
For the most part I always use these two together since is blends in my foundation perfectly, no streaks at all. I have never gone back to just using my hands.

This is the F88 brush, I also have the F82 which is the round one. I like this one a little bit better just because it has the flat angle so I am able to get around my nose and under my eyes a lot easier.

This is the first time I have purchased this particular foundation and I like it a lot. I like a very light coverage since I just like to cover up the redness on my face. This does a very good job at coverage, the only issue I have is the color selection. I usually get the lightest color since I am so pale its the only one that works. Well the palest colors usually have a pink undertone which I feel I don't have. So it always looks a little off but once I put powder on it usually all looks good in the end. At least I hope so!

My Perfume Collection

Today;
 I am going to show you my perfume collection
I have a very small perfume collection but it is slowly growing

This is the second of Taylor Swifts Wonderstruck perfumes, Enchanted Wonderstruck. This one has a very pleasant scent. Also the bottle is just amazingly beautiful. I believe her influence for this one was berries and flowers. Which is pretty spot on, it is not overly sweet and lasts for a pretty long time considering it is a Eau de parfum.

I like to consider this one my night scent. When ever I am going out to dinner or a special event I always wear this one because it is heavier than all of my other perfumes. I believe it is called Juicy Couture, Couture Couture. The bottle is very elegant and it is also very easy to travel with since it is so small. The scent is very hard to describe but I looked it up and it just says floral, I would say that is pretty spot on.

Here we have another Taylor Swift perfume. This one is just called Taylor and I am obsessed with this one, it is the newest to my collection. The bottle is so sleek and elegant. Yet again Taylor was inspired by flowers and berries for this one, however this one is more "adult" than her other ones. This one also seems to last longer than the other one that I have.

I have had this perfume for about 8 years now, it is on its last leg. I got it when I was 16 so the overly sweet candy scent was perfect for me back then. This is Britney Spears' Fantasy. If you love extremely sweet scents than this is perfect for you, I love the scent but at times it can be a little too sweet. This is probably the only one in my collection that I will not buy again, not because it smells bad but because I have just out grown it.

Lastly we have Marc Jacobs Dot. First off the bottle is just incredibly adorable with all of the ladybugs on it. 
I went on the Sephora site because I had to share what the exact notes are in this perfume,
Red Berries 
Dragonfruit
 Honeysuckle
Jasmine
Coconut Water
Orange Blossom
Vanilla
Driftwood
Musk
I mean it just sounds like it should smell amazing and it does! This is the most high end perfume in my collection so I try to not use it everyday even though it gets very difficult to do. I also have the hand lotion that came with it and that smells just as great as the perfume,

Products I've hit pan on

Today I am sharing the Products I've Hit Pan On

I just recently hit pan on my TooFaced bronzer. I have had this bronzer for a long time, I don't wear it everyday though so I know I will still have it for awhile longer.

As you can tell I LOVE Naked2 in my NakedBasics palette. I am hoping they start selling it individually because I will definitely be buying that. I also have hit pan on Faint.

As you can tell I love my brown colors. I use this as a content crease color.

I use this product everyday for my eyebrows. It is the e.l.f. eyebrow kit in medium. This is probably my 3rd purchase of this product and I will be buying a new one soon.
Lastly I have hit pan on my Rimmel face powder. This is the first time I have bought this product and I love it I use it daily. It's in the color translucent. 

Although I have only hit pan on a few products I actually get happy when I hit pan on my products. It shows me what products are worth the repurchase.

My Trip to New York



At the beginning of the month I took a 5 day trip to New York City. Here are some of the pictures I took along the way.

Here is Grand Central Station.

There were so many people here and the whole feeling was just so New York.

I am from California so seeing this much snow on the ground was definitely something new for me.

I didn't get the best picture of Times Square but it was definitely sensory overload with all of the TV's and people and buildings all around you. We saw Cabaret on Broadway with Emma Stone. Such an amazing experience and I hope to do it again someday. 

I went to top of the Rock and got this great picture of the city from up there.

After top of the Rock we went to St. Patrick's Cathedral, although it was under construction it still was really pretty and calming. My husband was named after St. Patrick so seeing this was a major necessity on our visit.


This was the city view from our hotel window. we stayed at the Lexington hotel. It was super nice, also it had a Starbucks inside which was a major plus for me. 

On the last day we went and saw the Statue of Liberty. This was absolutely amazing to see and just has this super powerful feeling when you are near her.

Also getting to see New York City and Freedom tower from Liberty island also was incredible to see.
