February My Glam Bag

I just got my first My Glam bag!! My Glam bag is a monthly subscription service, where you pay $10 a month to receive 4-5 full size or deluxe sized samples of beauty products. You can read about it here: http://www.myglam.com/. They are a new company, and heard some good things about them so decided to give them a go. The first bag I should have received was January, but they had multiple issues with shipping some of the bags, so I never got mine. They refunded my money, no problem.

This is what I got:

My bag came in a bright pink envelope (so cute), the Heart bag is what everything came in.

From Left to Right here are the items I got:

Premier Dead Sea Cinderalla Mask (in little bag), Urban Decay Full size eyeshadow in Sin, X Out Shine Control moisturizer, NYX Roll on Shimmer in Mauve Pink, Freeman Fascial Mask, 2 Ghirardelli Chocolates (in the little box) and then a $100 gift certificate at NuMeStyle.com (unsure about this).

Overall, there isn't anything I'm overly excited about in this bag. I already have the color of the Urban Decay eyeshadow in my Naked Pallete, but it is full size and worth more than the $10 price tag I paid for the bag. I'll probably give this another month or 2 and then decide if I'm going to continue or not!

Let me know if you have heard of or tried any of the products I mentioned.

Thanks for reading!! :)

Makeup Fails!!!! :(

So, this post is going to be about 2 products that I found out today that I dislike very much!!! 

Monday's are not the best day's to have bad makeup days!! I liked the look I put together today with a wet & wild eyeshadow pallet and some black liquid eyeliner. I bought this at Ulta a few weeks ago based on the recommondation of a youtuber that I watch all the time, but it did NOT work for me. The product I'm talking about is the Loreal Lineur Intense liquid eyeliner. This was only the 2nd time I was using the product but about 2 hours after I put it on, it started flaking off!! YES, my eyeliner was flaking off - WTF- not the most attractive look I've had! The first time I used it I had the same problem with the flaking, it just wasn't as bad as it was today. This product is aweful, not only is the forumula horrible so is the brush that it comes with. I've gotten used to having a liquid liner that has a felt tip, but this had a brush tip. I know this is a personal preferance, but I didn't like it.

Soooo, this issue brings me to another product fail. While I was trying to fix my eyemakeup over lunch, I decided to bust out these Bare Escentuals on the spot eye makeup remover q-tip things. Well, I've had these for a while but never really had to use them. Well perfect time, right... yeah FAIL!! Your suppose to snap one end of the q-tip to let the liquid drain into the other end. Wellllll, that never happened!  The liquid wanted to go to the side of the q-tip that I had just snapped.

So neeless today, I hope no one judged me after 1pm today based on my eyemakep because it was a HOT MESS!!! :)

I just wanted to let fellow makeup lovers out there know of these 2 products that were complete FAILS for me!

January Week 5 Pictures

So, I'm a little late on these pictures, but I'm still following through with my goal of a picture a day!!! :) This week also starts the Feb Photo a day challenge that my friend Sarah are doing for Feb. Her blog is here. I saw the idea on pintrest first but this is the blog that started it all.

January 30th 2012

This was my dinner tonight. A salad, something that I probably eat at least once a week. It's always great to eat something healthy after a good work out!

January 31st 2012

Gym day - I go to my local school gym once a week now that it's super cold out and snowy and I use the elliptical. I usually do 10 miles and I've been averaging about 45 min now, hoping to improve my time before I start running outside again.

So, before I start Feb photos, here is the list of what I'm following for my daily pictures. Found on this blog here.

February 4th 2012

A stranger - well this is the table next to us at dinner! I went out to dinner with my parents to The Blew Inn, they have great Chinese food. I almost forgot to get today's picture, but at the last minute remembered.

February 5th 2012

10am - Well, I was still sleeping at 10am and didn't look what my picture was suppose to be of until like 3pm so I kinda missed the boat on that one. But my brother and his girlfriend came over with my niece and nephew. My niece made me this picture and gave me the cute little owl valentines!! Awwww soooo sweet!! I love her so much! :)

This wraps up my end of January, beginning of February.

Hope you enjoyed! :)
