Ipsy For February

*disclaimer* another silly move on my part. The first "lip gloss" I open up is actually a cream shadow. Yeah. The laughs keeps coming ; ).

Love is/was in the air this past month thanks to the wonderful holiday that is Valentine's Day =). I was in Cali during that time though so I missed out on being with my hubby and two sweet boys but had SUCH a wonderful time with my brother and his family! My hubby made sure I had my Lindt Truffles delivered to me by my brother.....awwwwwww....and they were SO good!!! While I was gone my Ipsy bag came and I was eager to open it when I got home =). I have to put a small disclaimer on this video that I "let go" something I would typically edit out. I left it in because I am human and though you might think it was funny ; ).

Holiday Ipsy Bags

Ipsy Holiday bags comin at ya! I was so in love with the bags from these two packages (especially the black one!). What did you get from your holiday bags?

Ipsy "Makeup"

Hello there =). So I made and edited this video before all the craziness of Halloween ensued so forgive the outdated comments =). Hope you enjoy! I really loved these Ipsy treasures and have used quite a few of them almost daily! The tinted lip balm that has a crazy handle actually comes with a brush...I later discovered lol. Hence the long handle =D. The neutral lipstick is also a daily treasure. What did you love?

Ipsy Bag For May

Ipsy Beauty Bag For March

Got my bag from Ipsy{dot}com for the month of March and just got around to videoing the opening of said bag. I am SUPER in love with the bag this month since I am a fan of all things Nautical ; ). Not a ton in this bag but it's the first time that I was stoked about 90% of it! The eyeshadow pictured is a touch different than the colors I received. Mine was a fanTAStic teal and a caramel color. I am excited to put the hydrating mist in my kit (and to maybe use on myself) and the mirror is super cute and pink (which believe it or not, I am not always a fan of). Have you signed up for Ipsy or another beauty of the month club? What did YOU get this month? What are you excited to try?

Beauty Of the Month Club

I signed up for Ipsy.com in January, did you as well? Ipsy is a beauty of the month club where you pay $10 a month and receive all kind of beauty products. The absolute excitement of getting fun girly things delivered to my door is almost more than I can stand! I did choose the one that was the least expensive (women with husbands feel me right?) so what I have gotten so far does reflect that...kind of. There have been some amazingly wonderful full sized products and a few trial sized things that I can now put in a travel beauty bag. I am also pretty excited that I can give away some of the products to you since I have already tried them out in the past and know that I love them =). Here is the video of me opening up the two very first bags that I received. Enjoy and don't forget to enter the Shabby Apple contest, it's the last day!!!

Book Of the Month? Move OVER!!!

Now let us be clear. I LOVE reading books, I adORE reading books and I dream of the days spent in leisure reading all day long (okay, so maybe that would get tiresome and I would soon feel slothful). I used to go to a book club but instead of talking about the books they would just sit there and gossip (HUGE pet peeve!!!) so I would leave dejected and disappointed. Not to mention I had an enORMOUS amount of fabulous things to say about the book bursting in my head with no outlet. Grrr, but I digress. Another fabulous find in my issue of Allure was the fact that they have Beauty By Mail Clubs. Did you HEAR that????? You can pay a monthly subscription (about $10-$15) and receive monthly goodies by mail!!! They say that some samples are not even samples at all but FULL SIZE gems. And who doesn't love a surprise? I love it!!! I do!!! Pick ME!!!! Here are a few of the sites you can go to to get started on receiving beauty kits at your door. Now notice that these are not just specific to makeup. They have perfumes, lotions, polish, brushes even!!!! Are you going to sign up with me? Which one will you choose?
