Today I am sharing some goodies that my puppies were *sent for review consideration. If you know anything about me you know that my dogs are spoiled rotten and worth every penny. When I got the opportunity to work with Chewy.com, and review some products I knew Harry Potter & Dolly Parton would be very upset if I passed.

Merrick Power Bites-$4.74 for 6oz bag on Chewy.com
Kong Squiggles toy in medium size for $7.19 on Chewy.com
These treats were the perfect bite size for my chihuahua's. They were a great after potty treat for them!
Potter could not be still for more than a second I had to use the treats to bribe him. I am happy to report that they have not destroyed the Kong toy, yet.  The treats are long gone, and they will be some that I pick up for them again. I love the ease of shopping online and that is what Chewy.com offers. Quick shipping, great prices, and they have treats and food that I am comfortable with giving my dogs. If they had small animal products I would no all of my shopping on their website.

If you are a pet lover be sure to stop by Chewy.com and pick up some goodies for your cat or dog! Let me know what you pick up.

I am joining with some lovely women from the Beauty Blogger Collab and sharing our thoughts on beauty at any age. I was excited to take part, because I think it is important to stay true to yourself. I am in my early thirties and I love color,and glitter. I am also a huge fan of anything animal print or pink so you usually can see me coming. 

It wasn't until I turned thirty that I started getting comments about my bright makeup choices. I remember just last year I was in a store, and a little girl told her mom "You should wear your makeup like hers". She was only like 6 years old but still she kept telling her mom how pretty my makeup was. The mom looked at her daughter and then back at me and said "It takes a special kind of person to wear that kind of makeup".  I also get the occasional don't you think you are too old for that kind of makeup, or to dye your hair so much. However, I can tell you now that I will always be this person. I get bored easily and for me makeup is my expression, as is my hair. 

Makeup should be fun, it's something that I apply almost on a daily basis. If you don't like the look it can be washed right off.  Don't be afraid to play around it and try new things. I don't believe in people having a shade, or certain colors that they look good in. I say if it makes you happy wear it. I love a bright lip, so maybe the orange isn't the best shade to make my teeth look white. I wear orange lips all the time, because it makes ME happy.

We should find out what we love, and wear it. Stop being so hard on ourselves, and treating each other poorly. I hate that age is something that is looked poorly upon, especially with women. I am here to tell you 30 is amazing and I embrace it. No matter how old you are reading this, I hope you let go of all the worries, or preconceived notions you have about beauty. Go ahead and buy that hot pink lipstick, blue shadow, or add some fun highlights to your hair.

stop the stigma depends underwareness

I wanted to share this new product with you because I wanted to share my friends story. I do not currently suffer from any health issue that causes bladder leakage but I have several friends, and co- workers who do. I recently had this conversation with someone I have been friends with for almost 10 years and I never knew she needed this type of product.

I was recently going to go over to her house and then we were going out for ladies night. I stopped in at Target, because I am a shopaholic heh. She called me and  said "I have a really embarrassing question to ask you", and if you know me I can't keep up with all the embarrassing things I do so I didn't know where she was going with this conversation. She wanted me to pick her up anything that was the cheapest for her "stupid bladder". She is in her late twenties,a total knockout and has a few kids which is where her troubles began. She kept apologizing, and asking if I was okay with buying them.

She told me when I got to her house that she asked me because she knows I don't care about people judging me (in the best way possible,I think heh). She usually has her mom buy them for her, because she is too worried about someone seeing her buy them. So when I got the opportunity to review this product and to share the facts about bladder leakage I knew I had to share her story.

stop the stigma depends underwareness

Did you know that bladder leakage affects 51 million people. More people in their 20's suffer from bladder leakage than in their 80's. The average age of someone with bladder leakage is only 52 years old. Lastly that there are more people with bladder leakage younger than 50 than 60 or older.

I was surprised to read those facts myself. I always assumed it was just for older people. I don't have kids, and I haven't had any health issues that caused bladder leakage. I have heard women make the jokes, or friends tell me in a joking way about the issue. I hope that if you read this you embrace it, and feel shame no longer. I am giving these to my friend, she was with me when I picked them up for this post. She was actually impressed by how much they were just like underwear just with the built in protection. She also loved that they were low cut,and she could still look and feel good about what she was wearing.

If you or someone you know can benefit from trying out a free sample of this product check out this link! You can sign up and get a sample for them, and send them the link to get their own sample.



Also Depends is entering its 2nd year of Underwareness, which is a movement and charitable cause to break down the bladder leakage stigma. Depends is encouraging people to show their support for women with bladder leakage. For every photo and video shared using #Underwareness and featuring Depends products they will donate $1 up to $3million through 2016.

Fast & Fabulous Setting Spray can be found at Walmart and Walmart.com $6.00 2.2 fl oz



A few weeks ago I was shopping on Walmart.com because I truly hate going into the store. Plus I am lazy, and I can always find more stuff on their website than I ever would in store. So browsing the makeup section I saw this new makeup setting spray from Hard Candy. I added it to my cart, and I have been trying it out over the past few weeks.

In case you aren't aware my skin is oily,sensitive and acne prone (jealous?). I did my makeup as I normally would and sprayed my face with this Hard Candy setting spray. It claims to last all day and night in any kind of weather. My first time using it, I noticed my foundation had separated pretty bad. I also felt that my skin was greasier than normal, but it was a humid rainy day so I tried it again. 

I hate to report that over the next several uses the outcome was pretty much the same. My makeup was breaking apart and not setting. I was much shinier and had more of a grease to my skin than I normally would. After the second time of using it I also noticed some little zits around my mouth where the foundation was setting in my smile lines. I have quit using it, and plan on letting someone else give it a try.

My friend has normal skin, she doesn't wear makeup because she has great skin. So I will let her try it out and see if it works for her on those nights she likes to get dolled up. I think it will work better for someone who is dry,or normal but you can't be the slight bit oily or it's going to increase that situation. It did nothing for me,and I hate that because I loved the price tag. 

If you are looking for a cheaper alternative try the Elf Mist and Set for $3 it is still a favorite of mine!





Bought with my husbands money :)

I was one of the bloggers that was selected to review the new Tria Beauty Hair Remover Laser 4x. I am so excited to share my journey with you over the next 3 months! If you want to know a little bit about the product this is what their claim is. This is also what I will be testing for as I use it on my 3 month journey!

What they claim:
After three months of treatment, hair follicles that have been deactivated by the Tria Hair Removal Laser 4X will no longer grow hair. Continue to use the Tria Laser 4X as necessary for touch-ups until your skin is smooth and you're free of the endless hassles of shaving and waxing.

I did a little research and tried to find out how much laser hair removal is in my area. I called 3 places in my area that offer laser hair removal. Two places would not quote me a price over the phone, I had to come in for a consultation first. The third place told me they had a 60% off sale right now and for small areas (arm pits with light hair) and 3 treatments would cost $300 which was with the deal and they told me they had a credit card I could apply for if I needed it.

The Tria Beauty 4x, is pricey upfront $495.00 however you will use it once a week,every week for 3 months and as needed for touch ups after that.I will be using it once a week,every other week because of my light skin and hair. So you can already see the type of money you are saving, and you get to use it in the comfort of your own home.  Plus with these cute shades they look nice sitting out in your bathroom on display.

If you are curious I was sent the Turquoise shade, and I am in love!

city color be matte 
$4.99 each for these Be Matte Lipsticks

city color be matte lipsticks

There are 36 shade options so there really is a shade for everyone. You know I have to have all things pink, and in every shade of pink. The baby pink is the perfect baby doll pink shade, and ultra pink is the fuchsia bright pink. 

The good: They are beautiful shades, and long lasting. They fade very little throughout the day and your lips will be stained until you use makeup remover to take them off. From the swatches that you see on the back of my hand, I did dishes and washed my hands and they still stained my skin. 

The bad: They are very matte, and if you have dry lips they will only make it worse. When I got these over a month ago my lips were still dry from the cold weather. However, I have been moisturizing and I must say they work so much better.I love the way they look, but you must exfoliate and make sure your lips are moisturized before using. I find that to be an issue with a lot of matte lipsticks they are so matte they are drying. I use a chapstick first, and then apply these lipsticks and they are still matte and long lasting just not drying.

Have you tried these lipsticks out?

tarte poppy picnic palette
 Poppy Picnic palette is $38.00 at Ulta and Sephora (online and in store)

tarte poppy picnic palette
tarte poppy picnic palette
 If you have the Tartlette palette you will love this Poppy Picnic palette. The shadows are the same consistency,they are very pigmented and wearable. Such a beautiful shadow palette for anytime of the year, however the beautiful pink and coral case just says Spring. I love the usability of this palette, with matte shadows,and a nice array of colors. The Glisten blush is the perfect punch of pink/coral with shimmer. Glisten is in their permanent line, so if you fall in love you can pick it up separately.

tarte poppy picnic palette

These are all matte neutral shades so I think you everyone will find this palette to be something they can reach for all year round. I never knew how much I loved matte shadows until getting Tartelette and now Poppy Picnic. I love the addition of the blush so you can just take this palette with you, especially when you travel it's all in one. 

Have you tried this palette yet? Be sure to grab it while Ulta and Sephora are having their sales!

pacifica gossimer wings palette
This palette is $11.99 Exclusively at Target and Target.com

 These Iridescent shadows are coconut infused and go on so smooth and beautifully.
pacifica gossimer wings palette


I know a lot of people see blue shadow and get scared. I however see blue shadow and often find myself asking is this bright enough blue. When I got this palette I knew that it was going to be something that would work for everyone. You get the beautiful blue but without the overwhelming "Look at my blue eye shadow" eye look.

These are iridescent shadows but they do not lack in color payoff. This has been such a great palette for me to use when I am going to school. I can pick a shadow, and just go without looking like I have so much makeup on I still have a beautiful eye look. That bronze shadow is just perfection and will be amazing when I get a little sun on my skin.

This palette is beautiful and if you know someone who loves makeup but just doesn't love bright colors this is the palette for them. You also are helping an amazing natural brand like Pacifica and I always love to support a Cruelty Free brand.  You can shop with a clean conscious with Pacifica. 


Have you tried out this palette yet? If you do please let me know, I absolutely adore it!

dermalogica pre cleanse
20 wipes for $18 and 5.1oz for $38 at Ulta.com

You might be asking yourself, what is Pre Cleanse and why do I need that? Well, let me tell you (that's what I am here for) these products are made to cleanse your face of oil,dirt, and everything we put on our faces. This isn't meant for a specific skin issue it is just to cleanse your face so your other skincare products can do their job.

The Pre Cleanse wipes work like makeup remover wipes do, but these really seem to just get rid of everything on my skin. I have oily/sensitive skin and have had no issues with breakouts after using these.The oil-busting emulsifyer as they refer to it is my favorite and works so good to get rid of all the makeup and products I use on my skin. You just take wet hands and work the product into a lather and then you can start cleansing your face.Then I can follow up with my favorite cleanser that can get right into my pores and I feel like the products just work better after a good cleanse.


I suggest the oil if you are going to try this system out. It is a little bit more expensive but it is an oil and goes a lot further than the wipes will. I used all 10 of my wipes, and I have over half of the oil left and I only received the 1oz bottle for review. You will save money in the long run if you just start out buying the oil. If you have pretty normal skin, and oil isn't an issue for you maybe skipping the pre cleanse is okay. However, I have very oily skin in the warmer weather, plus I use so many products on my face everyday. I like coming home, and just taking it all off with the pre cleanse oil.


Have you ever tried the Pre Cleanse system?

bite beauty butter cream hand cut lipsticks
Bite Beauty Butter Cream Hand Cut Lipsticks $28 at Sephora.com

bite beauty butter cream handcut lipsticks
 Photo to show the Hand Cut of the lipsticks-6 of 8 shades.
bite beauty handcut buttercream lipsticks
The beautiful shades, look how creamy these lipsticks are!



Now, if you have been to my YouTube channel recently you would see me in the hottest pink lipstick shades. So to see me excited about these beautiful nudes might be shocking. The two shades that I can't get enough of are Caramel & Cream they look very vintage to me. I feel like they are just a classic shade that can be worn forever.

These lipsticks are very creamy, and have a great texture to them. I found them to be long lasting without being too drying. However, I did try to wear Marzipan when my lips were a little dryer than normal and I found that it really accentuated the dryness. These are made with Organic and all natural materials. I did find myself having to make sure that my lips were exfoliated and moisturized before applying. I assume that it was the darker shades that made me really notice the dryness because with the lighter shades I had no issues or anything that I took note of.

I know some people didn't like the hand cut idea behind the lipsticks. They say it's because the creamy core is where you want to start with the lipsticks. When you have the bullet that is your traditional non cut you have to work it down to the middle to get to its creamy core. I didn't find that the hand cut,flat top gave me any issue with application and I actually liked the shape a lot. 

Have you tried these beautiful lipsticks out? What shade are you excited about trying out?

city color be matte blush 
City Color Be Matte Blushes are only $4.99 online here!

Blood Orange and Fresh Melon
city color cosmetics be matte blush


I must say that I was so pleasantly surprised by these blushes. I find it hard to find beautiful matte blushes that aren't from a higher end brand. These two blushes have great lasting power, and color payoff. Fresh Melon has been a go to for me, and since it has been warmer I can't stop wearing it. 

These blushes are very pigmented so you must use a light hand especially with Blood Orange. Blood Orange is a gorgeous shade but you need to build it to the shade you want because of how vibrant it is. I was blown away that these were $5 and so long lasting on my oily skin. Plus they don't have a fragrance, which is a question I get asked a lot about products.

These blushes come in 8 different shades, and yes there is a hot pink which would be so beautiful! I have added it to my Must Have list.I also love their sleek and sturdy black packaging because it looks like a more expensive product. They are also a cruelty free brand which I really enjoy.


Go ahead and pick up some of these Matte Blushes for Spring and Summer. 
Have you tried them? What is your favorite?
