I have been posting on Instagram almost daily recently and have really been into it.

  I thought I would share some of my favorite pics from the past month.

I hope you all had a wonderful Easter!
See you soon!

Can we start off with say O.M.G. this bag is super springy and super cute! transferring my daily makeup bag to this one as we speak!

Every month I just love Ipsy Glam bag more and more. Of course there were some misses in the bag because honestly I feel like a subscription box can never be 100%, especially when you are only paying $10.
So without further ado, this is what I got this month:

Pixi Petra Blush Duo in Rose Gold

I have been wanting to try this brand FOREVER so I am super pumped to get this in my bag. This color looks amazing for an everyday blush in the spring and summer.

MeMeMe Brush

I always love getting a new brush, especially since my brushes are shedding like crazy right now, so I was super excited to get this in my bag. The brush seems like a very good quality brush and hasn't shed on me yet!

Illamasqua Liquid Eyeliner

I am always on the hunt for a good eyeliner and I can't wait to try this liner. I want to see how this compares to my Holy Grail Soap & Glory Supercat liner.

Nourish Organic Rejuvenating Rose Hip & Rosewater Body Oil Mist

Body oils are a HUGE trend in beauty right now but I have yet to bite the bullet and try it because I'm scared it will make be feel and look, wait for it ... OILY! So I'll probably try this one some day that I don't leave the house.

Living Proof. Dry Shampoo

I've gotten a dry shampoo in what feels like every single subsricption box so I feel like I'm all set on dry shampoos. I really don't have anything to say about this to be honest LOL. Just another dry shampoo.

I hoped you liked this month's Glam Bag!

See you soon!

JK I'm totally not a Harvard student. But I pretended to be! This past weekend my study abroad friend Heather came to visit me to kick off her Spring break and I showed her some of the sites of Boston / Cambridge / Rhode Island :).

We started out the Cambridge day by eating at The Friendly Toast and OMG if you ever find yourself in the Boston area you HAVE to go there! It is probably one of the best brunches I've ever had and I have to go back to try out the whole menu because everything sounded delicious!


Then, of course, we had to head over to Harvard Square to go look for Harvard boys and pretend we are smart Harvard girls.






I hoped you liked this little OOTD / personal post!

See you soon!

This is not the post I was planning on putting up today but I have been so busy lately with traveling for spring break and getting back into the groove of school that the blog has been taking a little bit of a back seat :( and I had this tag in my drafts so I thought I would share my answers with you.

I've spent a good amount of time this week lounging by the pool and there is nothing worse then feeling your makeup slowly sweat off!

I like to keep makeup pretty light but I always do some basics.


First, I take this trial sized Coola mineral sunscreen that I got in my February Birchbox and apply it all over my face. I love this stuff so much! It doesn't make my face feel oily and rubs into a powder finish. It works well under makeup and doesn't move around its rubbed in. I will definitely buy a full sized bottle for the summer!

Next, I do some light makeup. I don't like leaving the house without at least putting on some color correcting concealer, mascara, and do my eyebrows. I went with my Nyx color corrector which has been a staple for my this past month, Benefit's Roller Lash for my mascara, and Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow pomade for my brows.

The last step I do is to put some lip balm on my lips because they get pretty dry in the sun.

What are your beach / poolside essentials?

See you soon!

This week I have been on Spring Break in Sarasota, Florida visiting my grandparents. I have been loving the warm weather, when I was boarding the plane in Boston it was snowing!  






Everything is from Primark.
I love this outfit! It gives off a very relaxed vibe and reminds me that summer is on its way!

I have a few more Florida posts on the way so stay tuned!

See you soon!

This month's favorites is a little short.This month has been a slow one for me. I feel like I haven't found a lot of new products that I'm in love with, I've just been continuing to use all the products I loved in January.

BUT I do have a few favorites that I want to talk about so I thought I would make this post anyway.

BEAUTY 
Aromi
I love matte lipsticks and I was really excited to try out a vegan makeup product so I was very excited  to place an order for this earlier this year, And it didn't disappoint me! I will say that the color looks different online then in real life but I actually liked this lilac-y color more. I have worn this product a lot over the past month and will definitely conitue to wear it into March. I feel like this color is a good Winter to Spring transition color. You can find my full review on this product here.

NYX soft matte lip cream
Another lipstick! I've been really into lip products recently. I feel like this is a product that has been talked about for a longtime now in the beauty blogger world but I am just now jumping on the bandwagon. But OMG are these lipsticks great! The finish and consistency and just everything about the application is amazing. I only have 2 colors right now but I will definitely be adding to my collection because at $6 you can't go wrong!
B&B Don't Blow it
I have been using this in my hair every time I wash. I'm literally obsessed with it, its became a staple in my routine. I did a full review of it early this month which you can read here.

MISCELLANEOUS 

Vinyl
This is a new HBO series this is about a record label in New York in the 1970s. There is only about 3 episodes so far but I am already completely hooked! The acting is great, I love the plot, and the production on this show is amazing. It is everything you expect from an HBO show. Everyone show got have a watch because you won't regret it.

7 Years
This song has been on repeat this past month. It is just so catchy and I feel like I can jam out to this song.

Never Forget You
Literally when I'm not listening to 7 Years I'm listening to this song. It just puts me in a good mood.

What are some of your favorites this month?

See you soon!

This month was my first month getting the Ipsy Glam Bag so I was really excited to see what I got.



The First product I got was a Naked Cosmetics mica pigment, the color I received is a beautiful copper color. I'm excited by this product! I never buy loose pigments because they kind of intimidate me because I feel like you have less control over how much product you put on so I'm glad I got a pigment in a subscription box like this so I can experiment without feeling like I'm wasting an expensive product.

Next, I got BellaPierre Cosmetics Mineral Blush in the color desert rose which is a nice muted pink color. There seems to be a lot of loose powders in this bag haha. I've never used a powder blush before and once again I'm concerned about apply too much product but it is such a pretty color and I only own a few blushes so I'm happy to add it to my collection.

Moving on, I got Smashbox Photot Finish Primer Oil. I love Smashbox but I don't really but on foundation so I don't really have a need for a primer so this is probably going to be given to one of my friends.

Next, I got Best Face Forever Exfoliation Daily Face Wash. I love getting face washes I feel like I can never have enough and love trying out new formulas. This is a good travel size product so I think I'm going to bring this with me on my trip to Florida later this week to test it out.

The last product I got is a Trust Fund Beauty nail polish in the shade I'm Kinda a Big Deal. This is such a pretty muted pink color that is perfect to rock on the nails in Springtime.

Did you get February's Glam Bag? What did you think?

See you soon!
