Beauty Finds;Splurges and Steals

These are some beauty things I have found and loved the last couple of months that I can honestly say I can not live without!
I would like to have pictures on here but I just dont have enough time to do that right now but I will eventually have some up very soon.
The items I will categorize into skin care, makeup and hair care.

SKIN CARE
I have really been enjoying the Biore Pore Unclogging Scrub.  I used it for awhile and couldn't really tell a difference so I stopped.  Then a couple months later i decided to give it another go and i feel its the reason my skin has no really been that terrible lately. i still get the occasional breakout but thats mainly my fault for going to sleep with makeup on! Yikes! i know i know but some nights you just can't help it.  But luckily my next item has helped out with them

Second: Clean and Clear makeup and cleansing towles(no water needed), For the those lazy late nights when you just can't bring yourself to wash your face.  Great to keep in your bag if your staying some where over night or to have in your bed side table.

Third: Aveeno Positively Radiant Daily Moisturizer with salcylic acid.  I put this on morning and night and i really like it because it fights breakouts but also helps lighten acne scarring with the soy complex.

Fourth: Formail 10.6 Deep Pore(deep clean?) mud mask.......HOLY S***! It was like i think 6 bucks at ulta and OMG this stuff is amazing at getting rid of pimples and zits.  I use it as a whole mask, a spot treatment or i slather it over a trouble spot and keep it on over night and the zit or pimple is virtually gone! Amazing and the smell is awsome!

MAKEUP
I have been obssessed with a couple products lately.  One if my Benefit Erase Paste....So amazing!  It was i beleive 22 dollars but so worth it because the coverage is insane and you get a lot out of it.

Second: Maybeline Dream Mouse liquid foundation.  Literally gives you a flawless finish.  I also really like the Relvon Phototfinish foundation for days when the sun isnt out because then you don't look to done up.

Third:Loreal Million Lashes Flase Fiber Lashes......Literally looks like you have fake ones on! I actually got accused of wearing false eyelashes. Nothing compares.  I ran out and bought a similiar version of it called Voluminous Extra-Volume Collagen masacara and I like it but not as much the false fiber mainly because of the brush.  The brush isn't as clean as the fasle fiber one. But still good quality but if you're like me i coat the f*** out of my lashes for at least 10 minutes and with the second kind i kind of got those spidery goopy looking lashes.  Just not as clean.

Fourth: My Two Faces Chocolate Soleil Bronzer.  Love this stuff and a little goes a long way! It also smells like chocolate so whats better than that!

HAIRCARE


Some of my favorite hair care products I am currently loving are as follows:  My Redken Extreme Conditoner, my Oscar Blandi Dry Shampoo for blonde hair, Nexxus pro mend leave in treatment and my Johnsons Detangling Spray.
The Redken conditioner I love becuase the bottle is huge and it's lasted me foreverrrrrr! Also it does basically what it says it will.  I put it on and leave it on for about 5 minutes and it literally gets any knots I had it my hair and makes it very soft.

The dry shampoo I could rave about for days!  It is one of the best things I have ever purchased and I will continue to purchase it when i eventually run out and mind you I have had the same bottle for about 6 months and it has lasted me this long and I used it quite a bit.  It was I believe 18 dollars maybe at Ulta but it's totally worth it.  You sprinkle onto your hair from the bottle, let it set then rub it in or brush it out and it literally looks like you just gave yourself a blowout.  Blowout in a bottle? Yes please!

The Nexxus promend treatment I'm really really liking.  It makes me ends manageable and much healthier looking.  Lasts awhile too. A little goes a long way.

 I think that's it for now on products of the moment and I'm sure on my next blog I will have many new things to share about! Comments are always welcome on any products you're currently loving!

Pretty Little Liars




My day with the beautiful Ilsa who i looooves so much! We had a fabulous day watching Pretty Little Liars waiting for the season premier to start.  Although of course it left us with just as many questions as last season, I'm pretty sure Noll didn't do it though.  At least Emily came out of the closet finally! lol Aria needs to get hit with the ugly stick, no one should look that gorge! After the season premeier we had a late dinner at the delicious Olive Garden.  While dissapointed we weren't left with mints, our waitress gave us a 5 dollar off coupon for the both of us.  It was a beautful night.

Here is my best chick!  The fabulous Ilsa! You can follow her on twitter @IlsaTheJoe

First I will start with beauty products:
Beauty!
The Urban Decay Primer Potion for eyes.  This stuff has been raved before by many people because it is so great.  All you need is a little and it lets your eye shadow stay on all day!  I recommend using this before any type of eyeshadow look becuase it wil literally stay all day, and the packaging is soo cute!

Two-Faced Chochlate Soleil Bronzer.  This bronzer is so nice!  It doesn't make you ornage, it gives you a nice sunkissed bronzey glow.  You only need a little on your brush becuase it goes along way.
The Sigma F80 Flat Top Kabucki Brush.  This brush is great for putting foundations on.  The top britsles are soo soft, it feels like silk gliding across your face and the covereage it gives is great!

OPI Do you Lilac it? I defintly love it! :) The color is so rich and is just a beautful shade of purple, one of my favorite nail colors ever!
FASHION
I bought these earings from Lulus.com, i bought the silver ones and they are just the most adorable earings.  They are so edgy but sweet at the same time.  I wear them all the time because they go great with everything!
I got these bracelets from Delias and they are so freakin cute! The colors are great and they go with everything!  I can wear them casual or if i feel like dressin it up.
I'm a huge fan of off the shoulder tops and this one if super comfy and so cute!  I love to wear it with skinny jeans and my ankle booties.  I got it from delias!
The last thing is this amazing spinng make-up organiztion system.  I bought it at QVC.com.  It's so convienient.  It takes the mess out of just having your make-up laying around everywhere, theres a spot for everything!
