February Birchbox

I am incredibly excited for my Birchbox this month because I have been dying to try out the Full Exposure palette by Smashbox but I have many nude shadows already so I have been hesitant to go buy more. I am still working on starting some picture tutorials (getting the right lighting etc.) so when I do that I will def do a post with these shadows. And maybe Jenna will want to do a post of the Color changing polish… yes color changing. It really did work, in the bottle at least. When I received the polish it was gold glitter and by the time I was taking the pictures outside it turned red, pretty neat! Oh and the puppys are my Aunts. Above is Button and below is Buddah and I could help but post the pics with them, they're just so cute!

Pantone Color of the Year: Radiant Orchid

This years Pantone Color is Radiant Orchid. So I thought I would share some Radiant Orchid makeup options. I'm pretty excited about this years color because I've always liked purple eyeshadow and just started to enjoy purple lipstick as well. I wanted to share some splurges and some steals. I just bought the Maybelline Brazen Berry lipstick and I am loving it. Hope you enjoy :)

Khroma Beauty and Sally Hansen Nails

Personally I hardly ever paint my nails. Nail Polish will not stay on my nails AT ALL, it chips no joke within a few hours. I don't know what it is! So I just stick with clear. My very good friend and roommate Jenna on the other hand LOVES nail polish so she will be doing the nail polish reviews :)

Jenna is on the right I am on the left 

Jenna has on Khroma Beauty polish in Edge and Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Nourishing Nail Color in Pure White Tip . Here is her review: The Khroma nail polish goes on smooth and dries super fast, you might want to put on a clear top coat because it tends to chip. The Sally Hansen has always been one of my favorite brands of polish. I chose this winter white as my accent color, it has vitamins in it to help your nails grow. It goes on a little thick, make sure you don't have too much polish on the brush and it takes longer to dry.

You can find the Sally Hansen on Amazon here. Jenna just bought the Khroma at CVS recently but for some reason I can only find it here and here. If you try these polishes out let me know what you think, or if you have any polishes you recommend let us know! Ciao! 

January Birchbox

Today I will be sharing my January Birchbox! If you curious about Birchbox and how it works check out my first Birchbox post October Birchbox. 

The products that I am most excited to use are the Fekkai Glossing Creme, I have not found anything that really tames my frizzy curls. Olive oil is supposed to be very good for your hair and for taming frizz. And the Inkia Eyeshadow, I like green shadows and it is an organic natural pigment which excites me.
