HAPPY NEW YEAR!

HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

2011 Favorites

Well Ladies,it's that time again. The year is ending and we all gotta show which products we loved the most. It's a tradition I have come to love.lol. I don't have many since I spend most of my time at home with Zoe and I don't wear a touch of makeup.  The last thing I want is for her to get foundation on her lips when she gives me wet kisses. The products I have pictured are the ones I use everyday and/or carry in my makeup bag. I don't have my shampoo or conditioner pictured because I am trying new ones out (I don't like them) lol. I hope to see  your favorites for this year!

                                      SCENTS:

Ralph by Ralph Lauren is hands down my all time favorite scent. I hope to get it for either my birthday or anniversay since as you can see,I'm almost out.

Princess by Vera Wang- I received this last Christmas and although I'm not too hooked on it,it does smell very soft and like vanilla. I like wearing it when we go out to dinner or to visit family.

Sweet Pea Lotion is my favorite scent from Bath and Body Works. It leaves my skin smelling so good.

My First Julep Maven Box

Hi Ladies!

I'm not going to go into detail about what Julep Maven is since I'm pretty positive you either have ordered from there or heard about it. I wasn't too interested in buying anything but when I received an email telling me  I would only be charged $5 for my first box,I figured what the heck. Here's what I got:

 

LOVE the packaging!!!!!! So cute

I picked "Bombshell" can you tell why?

I think I'll use this for New Years Eve!

VERY pretty! Not used to wearing these colors but I love them already!

  I think I'm going to give Julep Maven a try and once I see what I get in next months box,I'll make a decision on whether or not to keep my subscription.

What are your favorite colors from Julep Maven?

Oh My.

Hi. My name is Jennifer and I discovered I have an addiction. You see,the majority of my makeup is under my bathroom sink because our extra rooms and bathroom are being occupied by other people. So until I get one of the other 3 rooms to myself,I have to make due with what little space I have. And let me tell you,it's not much. So I really didn't know just how much stuff I had. Until tonight. I know it's NOTHING compared to some of your collections (I've seen the videos ladies!) but dammit,I am proud of it. Just two years ago I had only enough makeup to fill a little pouch in my purse. I didn't show everything I have because I am tired.... It's midnight and I gotta be up early to help my Mom make tamales. lol. So here is 98% of my collection:

          My foundation,blushes and other face products.

 

My lip products.

As you can tell,I'm not too into foundation since they're still pretty much full. I started wearing blush a few months ago so I'm still figuring out what other colors will look good on me. I bought a bronzer not too long ago and I am loving it! I wish I tried it out sooner. As for lip products,I really,really have to get out of my comfort zone. There are way too many pinks! I guess I just like playing it safe.

Glendale Glitters

Last night for the first time my boyfriend decided to take Zoe and I to Glendale Glitters,which is basically a bunch of lit up trees,games,food and vendors around a little square in Glendale,Az. I had passed through there a few times over the years but it never interested me. But now Zoe is at an age where she notices the lights and whenever she sees a tree or house decorated with them,she ooohs and aahhhs. So of course,I had to take her <3 The night was VERY cold,but thankfully we had hot chocolate and jackets.lol. I wish I had taken more pictures but I got a little caught up in looking at all the pretty stuff. =)

Do you see the motorized animals she's riding? Soooo adorable!!

                              Zoe and her Nana Isabel

 

Snug as a bug

                    Butterflies in the trees! So cute!

We went into the cutest boutique and got a few things. I plan on going back soon because it was way too packed for me to look at everything they had.

                               I picked this out =)

 How was your weekend? Do you have anything like this in your city?
