I Wrapped It Up and Sent It

Hello everyone! Merry Christmas!! I hope you all had a wonderful day and not only got everything you asked for, but also gave other people what they had wanted. I for one am very excited because I got a tablet that I have been wanting for school as well as MAC mineralized skin finish in soft and gentle which I have been wanted for a long time as I mentioned in my "They Say I'm a Dreamer" post. I also got some smaller things, but my big present was my vanity which I have mentioned in previous posts that I got earlier this summer. I was feeling fancy today, so I decided to do my makeup. I know, I do my makeup almost everyday. BUT, I don't usually bother on Christmas because my family is very laid back and we don't really do much, so normally I just wear my pajamas with my hair in a ponytail and no makeup. Today I did my makeup similarly to how I did it yesterday, but I mixed the gold that I used in my crease with a light green so it added a subtle Christmas-y hint. Anyway, I hope you had a fantastic Christmas and I will talk to you all later!

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year

Hey everyone! Merry Christmas Eve! If you're like me, you're probably spending the day doing some shopping that you should have done a while ago, but better late than never right? Lately I haven't posted any makeup posts because I've been doing my makeup the same everyday and it's really simple and boring, but today I spiced things up a little bit. I still used neutrals, as always, but I decided to go for a more smokey effect. Using a Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze and a Wet N' Wild palette in Sparkle Til' Morning, I used the color tattoo all over my lid, then on top of that I put a sparkly champagne color. Then I used gold on the crease and a dark brown in my outer corner. I finished off my eyes with liquid liner and mascara, then used a Maybelline Color Whisper in Who Wore It Redder. It's still pretty simple but it's a little bit darker than I'm used to wearing it and I like it! I hope you all have a fantastic Christmas Eve and an even more wonderful Christmas! 

Everything Happens for a Reason

Hey everyone! Today I wanted to get on a little bit of a deeper level with you. You know when people tell you that everything happens for a reason right after something terrible happens and you can't help but think that someone's out to get you? That's how I've been feeling. I've recently had to make some pretty major life decisions to do what's best for me and it definitely hasn't been easy. Many buckets of tears have been shed, but I know that eventually everything will work itself out because I have an amazing support system at home and I have this blog which is something that is very important to me. Not only does it make me happy knowing that people are seeing it and enjoying what I have to say, but it's also very therapeutic. Plus, along with these life changes I'll have more free time to blog and hopefully get more makeup posts up for you all, but in the mean time, I hope you enjoyed this rambly blog, leave me comments with requests, and I'll talk to you later!

Let It Snow Let It Snow Let It Snow!

Hey everyone! I'm super excited because it snowed on Friday! It hardly ever snowed where I live and it snowed quite a bit, but the only problem i that the roads didn't get plowed so it's super icy out and therefore, I can't drive. BUT, classes on Friday got cancelled and finals are having to be rescheduled so that means more study time for me! Woohoo! And I know I promised a Black Friday haul but I didn't have time to take any pictures of the things I got with all the studying, but here it goes:

Old Navy:

Green military-style jacket: $20

Navy blue puffy vest: $15

Black sweater-print tights: $5

Fred Meyer:

Tons of socks all for 1/2 off

Dark green tights: $3.50

Black tights: $3.50

Maroon tights: $3.50

And believe it or not, that's all I got! So leave comments below with what you got and with requests for future posts and I'll talk to you later!
