Recent Beauty Buys | Sephora

January 8, 2018 Leave a Comment

I realized the other day that I rarely talk beauty and makeup on the blog, but I actually love reading reviews and other people’s experiences with beauty and skincare products. In fact, I usually do a Google search and read about products before I commit to any beauty buys. Do you do this, too? No, just me? 🙂 Since I made a stop at Sephora last night (thanks, my love for the Christmas gift cards!), I figured I’d share what I bought and why I like these beauty buys in particular.

BareMinerals Buxom Lipgloss in Kanani

BareMinerals Buxom GlossI love a good lipgloss and BareMinerals has been a go-to of mine for many years now. I was just about to run out, so I grabbed a tube of this gloss in a strawberry pink shimmer shade. I love the subtle lip plumping/tingling effect and it has a great shine.

NARS Blush in Deep Throat

NARS Deep Throat BlushOh, NARS blush. Despite the risque names(!), this is hands-down the best blush I’ve ever used! I have always used the cult-favorite, Orgasm, but since they were out of stock and I wanted to change it up a bit, I got a different shade instead. It’s so pretty on and I think I may even prefer it!

ORIGINS Activate Charcoal Mask

Origins Charcoal MaskI purchased a mini size of this mask a while back and loved it so much, but I never went back to buy it in a full-size version – until last night! I am super excited to start using this again – it really seemed to bring out the blackheads and toxins in my skin and leave a nice glow. I’ve also heard good things about the Beautycounter version, but haven’t tried it – has anyone else tried it? Let me know – I’m always up for trying something new!

I’m always ready to jump into a routine in the new year, whether it’s related to being organized, eating healthier, taking more vitamins or implementing new beauty products into my lineup. I’m doing a little bit of #allthethings and can’t wait to share more about my 2018 goals on the blog! Stay tuned.

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪

@prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than ye @prolonfmd Day Two | Overall an easier day than yesterday 👌🏼 Time went by faster and I didn’t have any nausea from being hungry…I looked forward to and savored all of today’s meals — the black bean soup for dinner was actually really good (esp with a little cumin + paprika!) 🙌🏼 I did @pure_barre this AM and then a @onepeloton walk this afternoon…keeping it light because of how little I’m consuming this week 😅 Not gonna lie, nervous for day 3 because it’s the lightest day of food and I’m already pretty hangry in general 🤣 Interestingly, I’ve felt pretty amazing today other than just craving a real meal 👌🏼 Btw, was so hungry for dinner that I forgot to share it in the reel 🤦🏼‍♀️
