Ulta & Walgreens Haul


This haul seems to have a hair theme haha. I recently heard castor oil is good for your eyebrows, and after a little more research I've also come to find that it has many hydration benefits as well. I bought it at Walgreens along with the spray bottle. I plan to try a few different application techniques for it, so I'll update you on what works best and if it even works! What random things do you get when you decide to go shopping just for an excuse to get out of the house?

Spring Green LOTD: Anastasia Beverly Hills Self-Made Palette


Can we all just take a minute to appreciate...EVERYTHING?! Life isn't perfect but I think that's what makes it so great. Take a deep breath in (seriously do it—you won't regret it!), and smell the spring air! Hallelujah! We have made it through the doldrums of another winter! I don't know if it's because I'm a 90s child, love Spring/Easter, or what but I love pastels; not to the point where I would paint the walls in my house a pastel color, but I do love wearing them and decorating with them to get into the Springtime mood! Hence this post! I introduce to you this spring green look. 












For this look I used a little more of the darker foundation than I've been using this summer (remember I mix two shades), added Fix + to my blush brush before applying Milani's Dolce Pink. On my lips I have Too Faced's Melted Metal Peony. For my eyes I used the Anastasia Beverly Hills Self-Made palette. I primed my lids with Urban Decay's Primer Potion, blended Sherbert generously on my brow bones, applied Treasure beneath my brows and in the inner corner of my eyes, pat Isla on my lids, and used Hot Chocolate in the creases and outer third of my eyes. I think a brown eyeliner would have been more ideal, but I didn't have one, so I just stuck with black. If you're wearing something with black in it, a great alternative to Hot Chocolate would be Spirit Rock blended out so as to not be so dark. I hope you liked this fresh faced, dewy springtime look. Check back for more reviews coming soon. As always, thanks for reading! :)
