Cute & Cheap!!


I was at H&M today buying some shirts (I'll post about them soon-they are great: non- maternity, comfy and cheap and they are long enough to cover this bump of mine!), and I saw that there were lip glosses by the register. I loooooove me some lip gloss! Most of what I buy isn't great and I never end up using it...Well this stuff is marvelous!!! I got a pinky duo called Forget Me Not and both colors are so cute (very light)!!! What I'm most impressed w/ is the texture-it is creamy and smooth, not too sticky and not at all grainy (which btw is my least favorite thing about most glosses!). AND it was on $2.95!! LOVE that!

Affordable and Fabulous!


I love a surprise beauty find!! This one I found while waiting in line for the pharmacy at CVS. The line was so long it went all the way to the cosmetics section of there store-so of course by the time I got to the front I had my arms full of new goodies. This one is great. It is Prestige Soft Blend Khol Eyeliner in Havana. They sell this brand at most drugstores and on Amazon and Drugstore.com. I love the dark brown color Havana, it gives me the option to go dramatic and lay it on thick for a made up look. Or I can just trace my lash line and not even wear mascara and it looks nice and natural. It is a Khol liner-so it goes on very smooth and easily, but I what I adore about this specific liner is that it doesn't smudge!! I wear it everyday and through my exercise classes, yoga, walking, napping, crying at everything (preggo hormones!) and snuggling the Mr and it doesn't smudge! So many friends ask me how to keep their eye make up on their eyes and I now can tell them-get this liner!!

A Pleasant Surprise!!



Happy Monday Product Junkies!!! I am back from a wonderful visit with my sister and niece in St Louis. While I was there I found some goodies to share with you all!! This first one was quite a nice little surprise. Sister (that's what we call each other) and I were shopping in Anthropologie (cant wait to fit into their clothes again!) and as I was checking out I saw a familiar logo in an unfamiliar tube...My old favorite (before Khiels stole my heart), Smith's Rosebud Salve now comes in a tube!!!! Stop the press! Its amazing! This stuff is fantastic-I use it for lip balm mainly, but I also use it on really dry skin and on my cuticles. It is clear-ish but leaves the tiniest hint of pink on your lips which is so cute! This product makes it on InStyle's 100 Best Beauty Buys every year for a reason-it rocks! I love it and the problem w/ the original packaging (in a tin) is that if it melts, it gets really hard to open and close the tin. So-problem solved!! Perfecto!
