Play! By Sephora: November 2017 Survival of the Chillest
November 29, 2017
Today I have a look at what's inside this month's Sephora Play! Box. A while ago I stopped subscribing to the subscription because a lot of the samples I was getting were duplicates or things I have already tried. This box I won through Instagram from Obvious.ly so thanks to them I can show you everything that was included for the month of November. The overall theme for the box is self care products and I was surprised to see that all of the products inside I have not tried. Find out what was in my box below!

Taking On The #Olay28Day Challenge - My Results
November 28, 2017
This is a sponsored post with Olay, but all opinions are honest and my own.
I have been on a skin care journey with Olay for the #Olay28Day Challenge and I am ready to share my thoughts and results on how everything went. I participated in the #Olay28Day Challenge, where I used Olay Regenerist Micro Sculpting Cream and Olay Eyes Ultimate Eye Cream every morning and night. Being able to have my skin care routine reduced to only 2 products was so much more convenient for my busy schedule and it made the process more realistic. Find out more on my results below!

Worth It? Esqido Mink Lashes Review
November 1, 2017
I am definitely a beginner when it comes to applying false lashes and making them fit right on the eyes. In the past I have struggled with lashes that were too stiff, the glue wouldn't hold, and they just felt really uncomfortable. I usually wear contacts on a daily basis, so I don't like to wear lashes that might be too heavy or bulky. Now that I have tried Esqido Mink Lashes, everything I thought about false lashes has been changed for the better. Find out more about these below!

Rimmel Shake It Fresh Mascara - Review
October 6, 2017
It's time to shake up your makeup bag with the new Rimmel Shake It Fresh Mascara. It has a new shaker system that refreshes the formula once it starts to dry out. This is a great way to extend the life of your mascara since usually you need to throw them out within 3 months. The packaging is a new idea, but how is the formula? Is it the best mascara out there in the drugstores? Find out my thoughts below!

Anjolee The Art of Jewelry Review
August 3, 2017
Today I have a closer look at what Anjolee The Art of Jewelry has to offer. They are the company that originated the diamond tennis bracelet and have expanded to rings, earrings, necklaces, and more. The name and brand known as Anjolee have stood for love, beauty and respect for quality from the very beginning. Find out more info below!
I was sent this lovely six prong solitaire engagement ring that was made with silver and cz. They of course offer the same style with real diamonds and 14k white gold. Everything was nicely packaged with a big blue box and then the ring box that had a small light inside. It really made the ring look gorgeous and shiny. You can customize it the way you want with ease by going through the steps on the website. The diamond engagement ring has a simple look to it but can stand out on its own. This is the kind of style that I prefer and I love how it looks when wearing it.
The band makes it look different and unique since it is a rounded top band giving it more of a smoother design to the solitaire ring. All items on the site come with free shipping, 100% refunds, free returns, and more. If you are interested, you can find out more here.

Beauty Box 5 Adventure Awaits June 2017 - What's Inside
June 27, 2017
Today I have a look at this month's box from Beauty Box 5. They have really been stepping up their boxes in a big way. Last month was so great with all full sized products and this month there are 4 full size products. I was really pleased to see there was a good mixture of products from hair to eyeliner to mascara. Find out more about what is inside below!
The first thing that I noticed when I opened the box, was the Jesse's Girl Liquid Eyeliner in Blue Hawaii. I absolutely love Jesse's Girl Liquid Liner in Black so this is great to have when I want to use something to make my liner pop. The formula dries quickly and has a hard time smudging. (Retail: $6.99, full size)
Now onto something for lashes, this is the Prestige Cosmetics My Biggest Lashes Mascara. It has a big plushy brush that can grab right at the roots of the lashes and build up volume. I usually don't do too well if a mascara has a huge brush since it can weigh down my lashes. I'm going to have to see how this will work and report back. (Retail: $7.50, full size)
Next up is this Laritzy Cosmetics Lip Pencil and I have the shade Beau. It is a beautiful brick red color and is nicely pigmented. This is great to pair with a lipstick or wear on its own and top with a gloss.
To switch it up a little, there is a Jeweled Hair Tie Set from Did Hair. It depends on what you get in your own box, but I received the pink ties. These are super cute and very practical since ribbon hair ties are the kind I use in my hair. They never snag or tug on the hair and are comfortable. (Retail: $7.50, full size)
Last but not least is this Coastal Scents Revealed 3 Palette Sampler. It comes with 4 mini eyeshadows that are from the Revealed 3 palette. The shades are a bit on the softer side but it's a great way to try out a few shades from the bigger palette to determine if you are wanting to pick it up. (Sample size)
So there is a look at everything in this month's Beauty Box 5. Let me know which products you are excited to get it your box!

Stila Color Balm Lipstick in Savannah - Review

When I went on my weekly trip to Sephora, I knew I wanted a lip product but not a matte or a liquid lipstick. It was then I stumbled upon this Color Balm Lipstick from Stila. It claimed to be a creamy lip color that nourishes like a balm. Plus it had a peppermint scent so I was sold. I was so excited to find something that would give my lips color while still keeping them moisturized all day long. My results on this though were different than expected. Find out more below!
