My April Favorites!
Hello everyone! Today I'm here to show you what products I have been loving this past month! The spring season is my favorite because the makeup I like to wear is light and dewy. Let's get on with the favorites!
Influenster Uni VoxBox!
Hey guys! I will be posting my April favorites later today so look out for that! In the meantime, I'd like to show you what I got in my Uni VoxBox! Influenster is a site where they give out boxes filled with beauty and lifestyle products that is absolutely free! It's so easy to do and it's so much fun! Sign up here if you're interested! So let's see what I got and I'll also provide a mini review!
The first thing I saw was a Pilot Acroball Pen. I was really excited to see this because I already have two other Acroball pens on my desk! I love these pens because they provide a thin black line. I hate pens that are too thick so these pens are a must have! The rubber grips come in different colors so I love all the bright colors they offer!
The next thing I saw were the Playtex Sport Fresh Balance tampons. To be completely honest, I'm not much of a tampon girl. I don't know but the idea of something lodged up inside my hooha freaks me out. TMI? LOL! It's the truth! I did try these though and they were okay. I did notice a tiny bit of leakage after three hours but that's alright. I think I'll just stick to my good ol' pads (I'll be honest, this whole thing was completely awkward lol!).
I was so excited to see the Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation! I already had one before receiving the box, but it was a bit too light for me. So I went with the shade True Beige and it matches my skintone perfectly! It has an airy mousse texture that leaves a matte finish so that is perfect for my oily skin! It feels light on the skin and it blends beautifully! It wears well over 8 hours and it's perfect for the upcoming summer season! I really love this product!
The next thing I received was the Red Rose Tea Real Tea in Black Tea. This was actually really good! I found it tastes way better in ice water so it's also perfect for the summer season! I believe there's a Blackberry Currant flavor so I really want to try that one next!
The second I saw a lipstick, I was completely happy! NYC came up with a new lipstick line called the Expert Last Lip Color and I got the shade Forever Fuchsia. Even though the color wasn't something I'd wear on a daily basis, I was still impressed with its long-lasting wear. I got about 6 hours of wear, which is pretty good when you're eating or talking all day. They are really opaque in one swipe so I have to be careful with this lipstick. I'll have to check out more colors in the line because it's a great lipstick!
Lastly, I got the imPRESS Press-On Manicure set in a fuchsia color. They are very easy to apply and the color is gorgeous but the nail beds were a bit short for my nails. So sad! :(
This VoxBox was really good! I was fairly please with just about everything, especially the foundation, pen and tea! Until next time!

Monday Questionnaire: April 28, 2014
Why hello there! How's everyone's day going? It such a beautiful day here in Orange County and it's starting to feel like summer! Even though summer isn't my favorite season, I still like being able to go on a bike ride to the beach and enjoying the sunshine. Anyway, today's Monday, which means it's time for a Monday Questionnaire! For those who don't know, I answer some questions that the lovely Karen from Makeup and Beauty Blog posts on her blog! She's an amazing person and I just had to answer her fun questions! Let's get to it!
1. What's your idea of a perfect birthday party for you?
I'd go to Disneyland with friends and family! I'm not a party type of gal.
2. Tell me about your first car...
My sister and I just recently bought a new car and we love it! It's a 2013 Honda Civic.
3. What's one thing you always have with you wherever you go?
My phone and lip balm.
4. Which of the following can you hear from your home: church bells, trains, busses, children playing, birds singing and/or wind chimes?
All of the above!
I live about 50 feet away from the train tracks, 100 feet away from a bus stop and one mile away from my church! Birds are basically my alarm clock, my mom loves wind chimes so there's a lot in our porch and there's always kids playing around around neighborhood. It's never silent in my neighborhood!
5. Have you ever been lost - like seriously lost - in a city, a parking lot or someplace outdoors?
I don't think so. I like to be prepared with a map.
Have a great day guys!
