Hey there turtle doves! So this last weekend I got a little shopping in and I thought I would share it with you. This doesnt include what I got online (Spoiler there will be another haul coming soon) But I hit Walmart for some basics for surviving and thought why dont I see if they have a nice brown lip liner.... and of course I came out with so much more then I should have.

I started actually looking for the lip liner I needed, but everything else kinda happened, and im sorry im not sorry.

Now they didnt have the color I wanted but i did snag two wet n' wild liners, both in different berry tones (Willow & Brandy Wine) which are good for the season. Directly behind that display is the Rimmel one so I then decided that I should get another Stay Matte foundation in a lighter color as the summer colors dont work for my ever fading skin just now. And possibly the thing I love most out of this trip is the Rimmel Scandaleyes Kohl Kajal liner. Ive played with it a few times already and i might be obsessed. It might actually be taking the place of my Lord & Berry liner and at $4 you cant beat the price.

My quest for the perfect 90's lip has continued and I picked up two Mauve toned nudes, Maybelline Colorsensational in Rum Riche and Flower Kiss Stick in Tea Rose. Flower is one of the brands I swear I dont hear enough about and this lipstick proves that to me. The colors are both amazing and depending on your skin tone are the perfect nudes.

Then I came across something I have been dying to dry and sadly didnt get in last months Ipsy bag. Sally Hansens new Miracel Gel polish. Which can I say again amazing? I have tried it and so far i have had it on for three days. Now im someone who washes my hands like I have OCD. I have to keep my hands under the water for a certain amount of time, use a certain amount of soap, but so far this hasnt chipped at all. With the strain on my hands with two kids it really can claim to be a miracle.

Lastly were a couple of odds and ends that i saw and grabbed. I needed a new hair oil mist and Organix is really the only brand for it. I usually get the KuiKui oil but as they didnt have it in stock i grabbed the coconut instead. I also got a new sharpener from wet n' wild and I dont know the brand of the adorable eyelash curler. For only $1 though i thought it was worth a try and my lovely mother has once again stolen my other eyelash curlers.

Is there anything i should keep look out for on my next weekly shopping trip? Anything you lovelies would like a better review on?

Saturday staples!

Another Saturday has come, another weekend started and sadly ending all to soon. So i thought we could have a little chat about the things i have been loving

Now this week i have been really having some skin issues. As im sure all ladies can attest when its that special/horrible time we get aches and pains and in my case not so pretty skin. I was a teenage with a flawless complexion so know this pains me greatly. But because i really wanted to let my skin breathe and heal this last week. So these have been my go toos for the healing process. It was a very drug store kinda week.

The Products
* Little Mix by Collection Full on Mascara
* Ulta Automatic Liner - Black
* Maybelline Master Precise By EyeStudio - Black
* Maybelline Dream Pure BB
* Elf Glossy Gloss - Sweet Salmon
* L'oreal Glossy Balm - Ginger Candy
* Fergie Wet & Wild - Fergie Daily
* Revlon Colorstay lipliner - Natural

Now ive only rocked the BB cream twice, because i have been trying to let my skin clear. But when i have this is the one i choose because it does have 2% Salicylic Acid which helps in acne treatment. My daily moisturizer has .5% so i try not to over do it because it can make your skin very sensitive to the sun.

Makeup aside i have been finishing up season 2 of Hemlock Grove which can we just say, amazing! Creepy and out there but im obsessed. And my son pick this week, which i couldnt get in the picture because my ipod has gone MIA has to me Maps by Maroon 5, and yes i have pre-ordered the new album, ive been in love with them since i was in high school!

What things have you lovelies been gaga over this week? Anything new i should be trying?

July Favorites!

Oh it is that time of the month! The time where we lament the passing of the year, claim we dont know where all the time is going and then put on a very happy smile and share what we have simply been loving this month. But no seriously, where has the time gone??

Ok now i did branch out just a bit this month, and not just included my best in beauty, but also some things i have been loving, tv, books, movies and blogs wise. And i say we just right on into the goodies!

My Makeup favorites this month have really reflected the weather. With a couple of east coast heatwaves here in the U.S. its been hard to wear makeup for fear of it melting off. Because of that i have been keeping it very light and most days very natural.

Other Bits and Bobs-
I have been loving recently a Beauty Blogger that i found on instagram, Danielle of IRLBeauty. Shes a Scottish blogger who has only ever been engaging and sweet when interacting on instagram and her blog is now one of my favorites to check out when im in a reading mood. She is completely worth the read people and i will link her below. Another massive fav for me this month has been Who You Are by Jessie J. I might be completely late to fangirling over her but im obsessed/in love, and cant wait to hear more from her. Special attention should be paid to Do it like a dude as well as Whos laughing now.... my two favorite songs this month. And finally with the released of the new Fifty Shades of Grey trailer this last week i have been devouring this book for a second time (Dont judge me, its an only mildly guilty pleasure) and im not going to lie, im loving every minute of it!

TV-
For me this summer has been half falling for characters iver loved for years and half finding new characters to fan girl over. Ones i have done marathons for this month are The walking dead (Thank you AMC and your 4th of july marathon)as well as Once Upon a Time, Captain Swan anyone? The two new amazing bits added into my life have been Orphan Black, I now have a huge crush on Tatiana Maslany, but most recently Hemlock Grove which really just sucks you in and i cant wait to power through this second season the way i did the first!

What have been some things you guys have been loving this month??
