Monday Questionnaire: Nov. 25, 2013

Why hello everyone! It has been a while since I've made a blog post here! Today I'm here with some questions provided by the lovely Karen of Makeup and Beauty Blog. Let's get started!

Hope you're all having a great Thanksgiving season!


1. Do you wear mascara on your bottom lashes?
I used to but not anymore. I don't have many bottom lashes so whenever I put mascara on them, it looks like I only have two weird looking bottom lashes. Not a good look!

2. Watching figure skating on TV: yes or no?

Definite yes! I loving seeing figure skaters do their amazing routines!

3. What’s your favorite kind of pie?

Pumpkin, apple, pecan, blueberry.....shall I go on?

4. Is there someone in your life who’s always encouraged you to chase after your dreams?

My dad always tells me to do what makes me happy. He's seriously amazing!

5. Besides laughter, what’s the best medicine?

Cupcakes, ice cream and the occasional lipstick!

6. Have you ever dedicated a song on the radio to someone?

No! That seems weird to me.

7. Where do you feel the safest?

My room.

8. Who makes the best drugstore nail polish?

I love China Glaze and Sally Hansen!

9. What shoes are you wearing today?

Old, grey TOMS.

10. Hello, would you like whipped cream with your hot cocoa?

Yes please!

Have an amazing Thanksgiving!

Sephora VIB Sale Wishlist + Recommendations!

Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't been on here in a while. Life just happens you know? Anyway, Sephora just started their annual VIB 20% off sale this weekend. It started yesterday 11/7 and it goes through Monday 11/11. I believe the sale is only for VIB (Very Important Beauty Insider), but I received a card from Sephora that lets me give the 20% discount to a friend. If you know someone who is a VIB, ask to see if they have the extra code! Below is a list of items I either want in my wishlist or products I have personally used and love!

My Wishlist Items!

NARS Guy Bourdin Holiday Collection Limited Edition One Night Stand Cheek Palette ($65)


I currently own one NARS blush and I would love to try some of their most best-selling shades like Orgasm and Laguna. I missed out on the Danmari palette from last year and I'll make sure to purchase it this year!

GLAMGLOW Gift Sexy ($69)


I have heard so many great things about this product that I just have to try it! My close friend Michelle loves this product and usually anything she likes, I like!

FRESH Sugar Kisses Mini Lip Trio ($28)


I have used up both lip balms from the birthday set I received and I love them! I want to try out these other colors too!

BOSCIA Bright Stars ($54)


I have always wanted to try the Boscia line for quite some time now, especially the Makeup-Breakup Cool Cleansing Oil!

My Recommendations!

TOO FACED Joy to the Girls ($46)


I love this palette! I recently made a review about this palette here on my blog so check it out if you're interested! It's perfect for the fall/winter season or as a gift!

SEPHORA COLLECTION Instant Nail Polish Remover ($9.50)


If you paint your nails often like I do, you definitely need this in your life! It has made removing nail polish such a breeze! All you do is stick your finger in for about 20-30 seconds and your nail is clean! This also works for glitter polishes too! I love it!

BUXOM Dolly's Opening Act™ Set ($29)


These lip glosses are seriously some of the best lip gloss out there! I own so many of them and I just want more! They have a minty scent to these and they do plump your lips a bit. They have a wonderful color payoff and seriously lasts all day! I love the sizes in this set too! Definitely check it out!

SHISEIDO The Makeup Facial Cotton ($9.50)


These are the best at removing makeup or applying toner! They feel so soft and gentle on the skin! I cut mine in half so that I don't waste any cotton. I love these!


What do you all plan on buying during this sale? Any recommendations?
