My Favorite Things

I have been using a few products as of late that have really done me well, so I thought i'd share :) They are all pictured below, starting with the left:

1. John Frieda Luxurious Volume Bountiful Body Mousse

2. John Frieda Luxurious Volume Lavish Lift Root Booster
3. theBalm Eyeshadow
4. theBalm 'Hot Mama' Highlighting Powder Eyeshadow & Blush

 The first thing I wanted to talk about was the John Frieda Volume line....OMG, amaze balls! (My husband will roll his eyes at me if he reads that).  I have very fine, flat hair that can be frustrating to deal with. I heard about this line in various magazines-it had gotten great reviews. I bought it a few months ago and have been loving it. You can put the mousse in your hair after the shower or spritz your roots with the root booster when your hair is damp. It gives your hair an extra lift. Go try it!

 Next up, theBalm cosmetics. Love, love, love! I originally got these in my Birchbox and swooned the first time I used them. The one on the left is a light golden eyeshadow. It goes on so smooth, stays on all day, and is a great neutral, everyday wear, eyeshadow. I can't live without it. The one on the right (Hot Moma) is a eyeshadow/blush mix. I only use this as blush, but again, great quality, great color, stays on all day. Besides all that, they are packaged perfectly....so cute.

Casuals

Lately, i'm all about being casual. Especially when it's the weekend and I don't have to work. I threw these old DIY shredded jean shorts over leggings and called it a day. I love getting use out of clothes all year round :)

I also tried out a new way to wear my hair up. I had seen a few pictures of people doing this and made it to work with my hair. It was actually super easy (and i'm all about easy) and looked cuter than I thought it would. I started out with a headband and tucked my hair into the sides of it. When I got to the back I rolled up my hair and tucked it all in the back. I didn't even use 1 other elastic or bobby pin, its that easy peasy!
