Sorry I have been so MIA...believe it or not I have not abandoned blogging so early on into it! I have been pretty busy but starting this week I'll have a lot more up. I have some great reviews, thoughts and even some regrets to blog about. Regrets of course meaning products I regret ever purchasing! Anywho...thanks to those who read and keep an eye out for some new posts :)

MAC'S Creme De Nude - My new obsession!
So I bought Creme De Nude a few months back and I have to say it is by far my favorite lipstick at the moment. It has a milky texture that allows it to glide on easily. I never thought I would be a nude lipstick fan, but after trying this one I can't imagine not using it. Before I put lipstick on I prefer to use a light moisturizer(or balm) to serve as a base. Creme de Nude looks really alone, but I find almost any gloss looks great on top of it. My current favorite is Creme De Nude with MAC'S Docile or Chandelier by NYX. Both look stunning! If you're a fan of the Kardashian sisters like I am, you'll notice that they tend to be big on nude glossy lips. I find that Creme de Nude definitely has that effect to it!

Summer Scent!
So today I finally purchased a perfume I have had my eye on for a while. I debated it until I saw one of my favorite beauty guru's talk about it. I have never been paid much attention to EL fragrances but I have loved the smell of Bronze Goddess! It is the perfect combo of coconut and suntan oil. The one way I could describe it is summer in a bottle. It really reminds me of being on the beach, laying out and listening to the ocean. So relaxing! The pay off is great, I have had it on for several hours and it is still the perfect smell. A little goes a long way with this scent.
If you are someone that craves the beach all year long you will love this perfume. I certainly do!

PS: I am still learning how to do this blogging thing...I think it will be much better when I figure out how to add pictures without the weird borders...until then I won't post pics! I have the weekend free so I will tackle that then!

From time to time I will review styles, cosmetics and other things. I might even post randomness from time to time. We will see what happens. Please be patient with me...I'm new at this!
To start I have decided to do a survey that I found that might tell a little bit more about me! I found this survey a while ago on one of the blogs I follow. I can't remember which one but I thought it was great! Here we go!
