Brightspots in my Day... (Look what I won!)

Hello Glamour Dolls,

I am back in stride, my vacation was relaxing and I caught up on a lot of rest and just enjoyed some of the simple things in life.

Before I left, I won an awesome giveaway by Donna at Lovin' All Things Fab! Donna is always busy but still has time for one of her passions...beauty. She inspires me because her makeup (FOTD's) always looks fierce no matter what's happening!

She has that sincere, down to earth personality that you can relate with... when you get the chance, visit her blog and You Tube channel.

SUGARPILL EYESHADOW IN BULLETPROOF

I don't know how long I've been wanting to try Sugarpill's eyeshadows but it's been a very long time, I was so happy to see this in my package...it's a matte black shadow.

WET N WILD PALETTES

Both palettes are new to the Wild and Wild collection, I'm a big fan of Wet n Wild and I really wanted to pick up a few more of their items but haven't been able to, so; I was uberexcited about these palettes-especially since the colors are perfect for every day wear.

Walking on Eggshells palette

Silent Treatment palette

URBAN DECAY NAKED PALETTE

I still can't believe I won it... the Urban Decay Naked palette!!! This palette needs no introduction, it's been all the rave since it first came out and people are still going crazy over it. It's neutrals turned up a notch! I can't wait to see what looks I'll come up with using it.

I'm really, really excited about everything! I've been on a makeup hiatus for a while and haven't bought any in a few months... everything couldn't have came at a more perfect time :-). Thanks again, Donna, for the makeup goods!

Do you have any of these items in your collection? If so, what do you think?

Mac Face and Body Foundation Review

One of my most used foundations is the Mac Face and Body liquid foundation. I've been promising a review on it, so here it is. Product Claims "A water-based, water-resistant foundation that provides long-lasting, natural coverage for face and/or body. Ideal for all skin types. Face and Body Foundation provides sheer, natural looking coverage in an easy to blend, water-resistant formula. The long-lasting formula is available in a wide range of colours and contains several emollients to help moisturize and condition the skin. It delivers professional looking results that meet the exacting standards of beauty photography and is ideal for perfecting the face and body." Pros -Price is $32.50 retail and about $19 if you're a Mac pro card member (That could be a con based on your finances). -For the price you pay it gives you a lot of foundation. It's in a 4 fl oz bottle. -Because it's water based it doesn't feel heavy, it feels very light on the face. ...

Well-Being: A Better Night's Sleep

Hello, Dolls A good night's sleep is something I've been chasing after for years. Like many people, my nights can be chaotic. Not to mention, I've been suffering with insomnia for years, yes years. It takes me a while to unwind and fall asleep, and when I finally do, I wake up several times throughout the night. I’ve taken several sleep aids and remedies through the years. I've tried teas, linen sleep sprays, over the counter and prescription aids, and almost every lavender night time product out there. Some were helpful at first, but after a while, I think my body got immune to it. So, I was very curious when Highline Wellness gifted me a bottle of their CBD Night gummies. I was skeptical at first, but they’re really working for me. The melatonin helps you to fall asleep, and CBD helps you to stay asleep. I’m able to fall asleep faster, and stay asleep longer. An added benefit is I don’t wake up the next morning experiencing grogginess like I’ve felt with ot...

Update & My Current Beauty Faves

Hey, Glamour Dolls! How are you all?! Long time no post...it feels good to finally write something on here. What's been going on with me? Just life. I've been busy and focused on a few things; which has been leaving me drained and given me a lack of desire to do anything else. Things have been all work and no play for a while and I'm finally getting my balance back again (sigh of relief!). Thankfully, I go on vacation in a few weeks. I hope to write a few more posts before I leave :-) As far as beauty news, I have been using products in my own stash-I have bought a few things here and there and I did purchase a big haul from a Mac Pro class I took the beginning of October (more about that in another post). Here are some of my faves that I've been using constantly using since the last time I posted. KISSABLE COUTURE GLOSSES I bought these glosses at The Makeup Show back in May and I've been loving them every since. The glosses are really long wea...
