Practice?

Alex told me that he needed head shots done due too a being in a performance in the summer that he will also be playing lead guitar in, But because he is in the play he needs a head shot which yes will be easy and fun but i always find it hard to take pictures of others so i was practicing on how close i could get with my camera on Miss. Shadow before i took Alex's Photos tomorrow and it resulted in this closeup of her that reminded me of my highschool photography class.

 

Vanillary

Do you want to smell amazing? Of course you do. Well im not one for trying new scents because when i fall in love with one im stuck on it. But i dont like to wear anything over powering. Vanillary is a very delicate scent, leaving you feeling warm and cozy sorta like a homemade cookie. I bought the solid stick perfume and i love it, i place it on my wrists and on my collar bone before i go to work and it lasts all day! I find when im going all day ill catch little bits here and there of the smell and it reminds me that if i can smell it so can others!

Extensions

It makes me extremely happy to be able to wear my extensions and have them blend like a dream! Because i work in childcare i dont wear them all that much along with makeup, im in a Jr. Preschool room and with the children's little hands its not the best idea. They enjoy brushing my short hair and they are always giving you kisses on your cheeks or touching your face that makeup doesnt hold up or it just soaks up all the oils off of their little fingers that it just results in breakouts. So when i do get wear them i feel really really girly which is always fun .

Packing

Im sorry, but if you haven't heard from me well im packing! Alex and myself are moving at the end of the month and along with work, house viewings, life, my sister having a baby very soon its been hard to post but it will be done. If there is anything you want to know or want me to blog about ask away and it will be done. Again sorry but with the move i will be getting a proper desk setup resulting in more posts and organization. 

Miss. Shadow isnt feeling the packing, i threw all our clothes onto the floor to sorta through it, and when i came back into the room Miss. Shadow was fast asleep on the pile. Im not too sure why she is upset about moving, My hopes are that she doesnt think we are leaving her behind, trust me that would never happen but it makes me sad to think that might go through her head.

 

Homemade bath melts

I had a few different things around the apartment that i felt would work perfectly for bath melts, and well they turned out great! It was really, really easy to make these. All i did was crush up some flowers(these were dried wild flowers, and dried rose petals) I only used the petals of the flowers i felt they held a lot of scent, and Coconut oil. I melted about four cups of the oil until it was all melted and clear, i added the petals in and let it simmer for ten minutes. I then poured the oil into a mini cupcake tray with dark chocolate chips in them. Popped the tray into the freezer and TADA! all done! just pop one into the bath and enjoy. I find it did make the bath oily (duh!) which made it great to shave with nothing but the water and it makes you smell fabulous! 

XL Hermit Crabs

 Sebastain and Dr. Zoidberg have been welcomed into the house. They are two XL Caribbean (purple pincer) Hermit crabs, and they are XL they are approx 3 to 4 inches wide. These two little guys are adorable to watch walk around, eat and dig holes around in their tank. And super easy to care for if you follow the rules.

A relaxing night in.

Hope your having a relaxing night too. Goodnight!

 

Ultrabalm.

Ulterbland was given to me by friend around christmas time as a tester and well, i had no idea how to use it! until i watched a few youtube videos i found out it could be a makeup remover! YES! a makeup remover, and it works amazingly, it doesnt leave my eye feeling greasy, and since i have figured this out i have fallen in love with it. Now the lush times it says it can be used for other things but to be honest i feel this one works best as a remover and i like it that way.

Mark. Makeup

I am extremely impressed with Avon's Mark. line of makeup. I have started to not wear makeup during the week while im at work due to y face seems to not like it so much, it breaks out and it just turns into a battle with my skin. But i did want something light and almost not visible. One the Mark. makeup case is so cute and has two zipper pockets (yay!). Get in line- has to be my all time favorite liquid liner. It holds on so well, it doesn't flake or bleed as well. No place to run, it a twist eyeliner pencil im really surprised that it really does hold on, i use it just on the bottom rim of my eye to help reflect a little bit more light around my eyes. The disk is eye primer for eye shadow and i have tried a few different ones and this one is neat it almost feels like a lipgloss but it holds onto the pigment you place ontop. The foundation is nice, except it has a red undertone which for right now due to a long winter i have lost a lot of that tone too my skin so with spring and summer im sure this foundation will look a lot more natural on me. Now... the illuminantor.. not sure what i think.. i find this is very light, and sheer.. which for under my eyes, well i dont want that i want to cover up my dark circles and sorta grey tone to me... it also doesnt help that where i placed it my father said " you have a little something orange right there." well... thats not a good sign if he can point that out. Therefor we will see about that one and who knows i could be using it wrong. I'll do some snooping.    

It's April!

It's April! Therefor you know what that means, RAIN! lots and lots of rain, and because i work in childcare... im outside for two hours (minimum) a day! But... I enjoy rain for one reason alone. HUNTER rubber boots! I have had my hunters for a very long time, and they have held up and after a little TLC they always end up looking brand new. So everyone enjoy the rain because it only means that flowers and all the critters will be here soon.
