My first Sephora Play! box of the year arrived last week! Last month’s was a huge hit for me so I was really looking forward to what this one has in store. If you aren’t familiar with Sephora Play, be sure to check out some of my previous posts for an idea of what comes in these boxes. It’s a subscription box that’s $10 a month, and in the past few months they’ve really been focusing on switching things up with different variations. Each month it comes with 5 beauty products and a perfume. There’s usually a good variety of…

My Travel Bucket List
Traveling is something I love to do more than almost anything else in my life. When I was little, my family would take so many fun vacations, and I’m so grateful for all the places I’ve been able to visit so far – I’ve been to Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Mexico, Canada, and 37 US states ! I know it’s cliche and most people love to travel, but it really is something that just makes me so happy. I love trying fun foods, exploring new places, and trying to take as many photos as possible to somehow hold on to all the amazing…

Friday Favorites #2 – 1/27
Welcome to the second edition of Friday Favorites! Again I have some fun stuff to share this week, so let’s jump right in 🙂 The Keurig K15 Classic Brewing System I’ve never been a heavy coffee drinker, but I like a cup every now and then. Our roommate is decidedly a coffee drinker though, and she recently acquired a new Keurig. It seems silly that I didn’t know how to use it, but I was clueless – my family never drank coffee at home growing up! She quickly taught me how to use it and I was mesmerized. I can…

Walmart Beauty Box Winter 2017
It’s been a while since my last Walmart Beauty Box way back in October, and today I have the Winter box to share! The Walmart Beauty Box is a quarterly subscription box. It’s marketed as a box of free samples for which you only have to pay shipping, which is $5. So whatever way you slice it, it’s a $5 box. The winter box is only my second Walmart box, but I’ve gotten quite a few from Target, Sephora and Amazon since then, so I have more of a handle on this whole beauty box thing now! The winter box is SO…

Teddy Supplies (or: Everything I Bought When I Adopted a Dog)
When I got my little pup Teddy, it obviously wasn’t my first time having a dog. But I haven’t lived at home with my dogs for years and I’ve never had one of my OWN to take care of, so I had to stock up on a few things for his arrival! Luckily, since my parents took care of him before I got him, they knew his preferences for food, toys, etc. and were able to pass along those things to me. We also went shopping while they were here to pick up a few last items. In this post…

Friday Favorites – 1/20
Like I mentioned in my Top 5 post earlier this week, I’ve got a couple of ideas up my sleeve to stay on track with my New Years resolution to keep up with my blog. I think one of the best ways to make myself do that is to do a weekly series so I’m FORCED to keep up with it 😉 So today I’m introducing another new series, called Friday Favorites! Every Friday I’ll write about my favorite fun or interesting things from the week in a sort of roundup post. Since another thing I wanted to do this year is focus on positive things…

Amazon Beauty Box Reviews
You know what I say…another day, another beauty box! Like in my last Target boxes post, I have TWO boxes to show today, and they’re both new to me. Today I have the Amazon Beauty Sample Box and the Amazon Luxury Beauty Box. I had no idea that Amazon did a beauty box – I got the luxury one for Christmas and the regular sample one just a few days ago. From what I can tell, there are a few differences between Amazon boxes and other subscription boxes: Amazon boxes are offered exclusively to Amazon Prime members. If you aren’t already a Prime…

Top 5: Tabletop Games
One of my many New Years’ Resolutions was to keep up with my blog and in an effort to do that, I have a bunch of fun ideas planned. The first one I’m implementing is a new series of posts I’m super excited about! I’m calling this my Top 5 – posts in which I’ll share list of my top 5 things in different categories. I’m really pumped to write these posts because it will bring more variety to my blog and let me cover more topics I’m interested in. For my first post, I’m writing about my top 5 favorite tabletop games to play with friends!…

Target Beauty Boxes January 2017
Yes, you’re reading that title right – this month Target released TWO versions of their Beauty Box! As I’ve said in previous posts, the Target Beauty Box usually costs $7-10 and is different than traditional subscription boxes because it doesn’t auto-renew. In other words: you have to remember to go and buy it every month. This month, they released a $5 box and a $10 box. I thought it would be fun to show you both boxes and see if we can guess which one was $5 and which was 10 B) I mean, obviously I already know but see if…

The Great Makeup Reorganization of 2017
It’s always nice to get a fresh start in the new year, and this year I decided to kick it off with a bang – with a gigantic reorganization of my makeup collection!! As you have probably guessed… I have a LOT of makeup. This post will probably be pretty lengthy!! Moving was the perfect time to do this reorganization too because it also allowed me to go through and toss a bunch of stuff! I tried to be pretty liberal here – I got rid of anything that was almost empty, hadn’t been used in more than a few…
