October IPSY Glam Bag: The Art Of Beauty

Oct 25

The October IPSY Glam Bag found it’s way to my mailbox yet again this month. When I first got accepted into IPSY I was over the moon excited. For $10 a month I was going to get to try new brands in addition to the ones I love. But after the last bag I was on the fence about the subscription because I wasn’t too sure if I was really going to “use” most of the items I received. I am happy I stuck it out because I loved every single thing in my bag this time around. While I was happy with all of the fun products I got to try in September, the October Glam Bag was definitely more “me” overall. Last month I was slightly dissapointed I didn’t get the Butter London nail polish like other subscribers, but these goodies are making up for it. This month’s theme was “The Art Of Beauty” and I was sent 5 deluxe items that coordinated with my style profile in addition to another cute makeup bag. Take a look!

Starlooks: November Starbox Review

Nov 26

Hello beauty fans. The November Starbox is here! After being impressed with last month AND the month before …. I was ready to get this baby open! This month it is all about achieving a “Prime Look.” This is a look that every face can pull off and the products within each box will compliment individual skin tones. The November box is the first to be semi-customizable and Starlooks did their best to make sure that each subscriber would get products they could not only use, but love. I really didn’t know if the box I received was for a “light” skin tone but when I saw the products I was VERY happy.

Starlooks: October Starbox Review

Oct 26

It is nearing the end of the month and this is the time I often end up with a special delivery at my door. This week I received my October Starbox from Starlooks. If you are stopping by and jumping right in, you may want to take a look at my September review to see what the service is all about. As a quick reminder, Starbox is a beauty subscription service that includes full sized samples for around $15 each month.

A Beautiful Day At The Pumpkin Patch!

Oct 12

I woke up this morning and couldn’t believe it- not that I woke up today- BUT that it was finally in the 80’s outside! Summer took longer than usual to depart and each day it almost seemed like it was getting hotter outside. There was no way I was letting this beautiful breezy day go to waste! With the weather being cooler we decided to make a trip the the local farmer’s market down the street. Each year for the month of October they turn a section of their nursery into a pumpkin patch. The land is covered with hundreds of pumpkins different shapes, sizes, and colors. The weekend before Halloween the nursery even offers hayrides and face painting which attracts a huge crowd. Last year we were number 150 in the face painting line. I was happy we missed the crowds by heading there early this month. With the patch to herself Toodie got to pick out her very own pumpkin and paint the outside to bring home. Our pumpkin patch visit has become a tradition each year and it is something we always look forward to.
