Lions and Tigers and Mice, Oh My!

Hey everyone! I am so so so sorry it's been forever since my last post! I hope you're all enjoying your fall! As you well know, Halloween is right around the corner and I know this is a big weekend for parties among high school and college students, so I just wanted to ask what you're all dressing up as for Halloween? I decided to dress up as a mouse by wearing a pink shirt tucked into a high-waisted black lace skirt with black tights, black boots, and black mouse ears. As for my makeup, I decided to do a subtle smoky eye using silver on my lid, light pink in my crease, and black in my outer corner. 

I also drew on whiskers and a nose using liquid eyeliner, and just wore my hair down straight. But anyways, that's it for my Halloween costume so leave a comment with what you're going to be! And as a side note, please be safe! I know you've heard it before, but it's true that Halloween can be a very dangerous Holliday, so make sure you never walk home alone and if you're going to be drinking, just be safe and don't take drinks from anyone. I love you guys, missed you, and I'll talk to you later! 

It's a Lifelong Commitment

Hey everyone! Sorority recruitment started on Wednesday and continues tomorrow through Tuesday, so I'm super excited to meet new people and get to talk to complete strangers. If any of you are going through recruitment, the biggest tip I can give you is be yourself. Put all your nerves aside because everyone is nervous, it's not just you. And like I said, just be yourself because you want to choose a house that will accept you for who you really are, not who you're trying to be to impress them. I learned this about halfway through my formal recruitment last year, and after I just relaxed and didn't try to put up a front, I found an amazing group of women that I can count on for anything. I'm so incredibly happy with my choice, and if any of you go through recruitment and decide to join a house, I hope you find the sisterhood that I found and the network that I have immersed myself in. As always, if you have any questions leave a comment and I'll talk to you later!

It Starts With the Brows

Hey everyone! So lately I have gotten so many complements on my eyebrows and questions about what I use to fill them in and what not. The answer? POWDER! It looks so much more natural than using a pencil, and is super easy to work with. The powder that I like is the E.L.F. Eyebrow Duo in medium. This duo comes with a powder and a gel for only $3 and it's amazing. It looks so natural, the only reason why people would wonder if you fill them in is because they look flawless. It also comes with a small applicator brush which I love to use. After I fill them in with the powder, I use a clear brow gel to keep down those little hairs that like to poke out and keep them looking good all day. My favorite brow gels are the E.L.F. Clear Brow Gloss and the Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in clear. Both are fantastic quality for a small price. If you have anymore questions don't hesitate to leave a comment! Love you and I'll talk to you later!

It's A Lifelong Sisterhood

Hey everyone! I'm sorry it's been so long, its been a crazy week. I moved into my sorority, then I went through initiation, and now we're getting ready for recruitment so I've been very busy! However, this experience has been simply amazing. My sisters mean the world to me and I'm so happy to be a part of such a wonderful group of girls. I know this is yet another non-beauty related blog post, but I assure you once I get settled into my new home a little more I'll be doing more posts, and I've been crafting a lot lately so if you want and DIY ideas let me know in the comments! I hope you're having a wonderful week and I'll talk to you later!

Crying On A Suitcase

Hey everyone! It's that time of year again. Most people have gone back to school already, but I don't move until this Wednesday and I'm excited but at the same time, like most people, I don't want summer to end. I don't think I'm as excited as I was last year, because at this point I already know how good it feels living on your own, and while it is a lot of fun, I'm the kind of person who gets home sick being away from home for a day. My school isn't even that far from my house, and yet I get so anxious leaving home to go back to school. So I've been spending the day packing up all my stuff and I was getting kind of sad because I'm not ready to leave yet, so I decided I would blog because it makes me happy. Sorry for being so rambly, and for not doing a beauty post in a while, it's been a hectic few weeks here. But I do want to mention that I tried out a few new products that I've been loving. Fist, I got Benefit They're Real mascara which I've been wanting to try for a while now and I love it! It's a pain to get off but looks amazing when you're wearing it. I also got a new Maybelline Color Whisper in  No. 45, Who Wore It Red-er. It's a gorgeous pinky-red and I've been obsessed with it because it's not quite as bold as a full red lip, but it's still a statement color. Well I think that's about it, I love you guys and I'll talk to you later!
