In other news...

I know that I was supposed to have a video up by now,
but I have just been so busy that I haven't yet had the time.
I thought that while I was working on it that I would talk about my other blog.

Its about my relationship with my boyfriend.
We have a long distance relationship
and I thought that I could talk about what we go through and maybe 
or hopefully help any other couples that are dealing with the same thing.

So if you would like, you can go over there are read it.
:) 
And if you have any thoughts about our relationship
or any advice that you would like to give, 
please do so.

My first video

So when I started this blog, I didn't think that I wanted to do any videos for it.
I feel like I write really well and that I shouldn't have to worry about it. 

But then I thought about how more personable it would be if I did make some videos.
That way people would be able to see me and how I am
and what kind of things that I like.
I realize that just reading isn't always helpful to everyone.

So I will be working on that and will hopefully have it up soon.

Items I've recently bought

So I was trying to think of something that I could do instead of just reviewing products all the time, and I am always interested in what other people are buying. 
I am one of those girls that watches the beauty gurus on Youtube to see what they are getting and what they think about them. 
I don't have quite the means that they do to buy a lot of expensive makeup. I always make sure to keep in my own range and I hardly ever feel like I'm spending a lot of money on makeup.
With that being said, this is some of the stuff that I bought recently while shopping with my mom:





These are the products and colors that I purchased:

*Rimmel London Stay Matte pressed Powder in 012-Buff Beige
*Covergirl Lash Blast Volume in Very Black
*L'Oreal Paris Visible Lift Foundation in 146-Nude Beige
*Hard Candy Glamoflauge Heave Duty Concealer in Light
*Conair double sided brush

Just so you know, I don't need the Visible Life foundation for any particular reason. I thought that it would be a good makeup to use to help prevent future wrinkles and maybe even help with acne marks and it has a SPF of 17, which I love. Protecting my skin is a big deal for me.

I also love using the small end of that brush to blend in my concealer. I know it is used for foundation, but it small that I would rather use a larger one... which I already have.
It blends out the outer edges of the concealer really well and it doesn't take any of the product off of my skin.

P.S: If any one that actually reads this has any suggestions on things I can write about, I would love to know what someone else has to give as input. 
Thanks in advance
:)
