Hello and welcome to this month’s August favorites! I feel like this month really dragged on a lot more than July did, which felt like it just flew right out from under my nose…but I also felt like I was constantly busy this month, which may explain my lack of posts recently! Anyway – here’s my favorite things from this past month! Also I have a lot of beauty items this month so I’m going to start with all those lol Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra Longwear Foundation Stick So I’m pretty sure this has been in my favorites before annnnnd…

All About Hautelook
Hello and welcome back to my blog <3 Today I have another post in my “all about ____” semi-series about various websites I use to save money and get free stuff. Previously I’ve covered Influenster, BzzAgent, Pinecone Research, and Ebates, and today I bring you another one! This series has expanded from test-and-review companies to include websites I use to save money or otherwise just find useful. Today’s subject falls into the latter category. Today we’re talking about Hautelook! (Edit from the future: you can click here to see all my similar posts about saving money and getting free stuff!)…

Dogs of Walt Disney World
This is going to be a very strange post that probably no one asked for, but I was struck with inspiration on my recent WDW trip with friends. While riding It’s a Small World and admiring the fluffy poodles from the France scene, I started to wonder how many other Disney attractions featured dogs…….. after some googling, the only results I could find were about hot dogs or service dogs, both of which are nice, but not what I was looking for. So today I present to you – Dogs of Walt Disney World: my account of (mostly) all of…

Target Beauty Box August 2017
Coming right on the heels of the Target Beauty Box Analysis post, I have this month’s Target box review!! Target Beauty Box Cost: $5-10 – this month’s was $7 (I think?) Frequency: Monthly, but you have to order it each time. I get emails from My Subscription Addiction to remind me when each box goes on sale! Type of products: Deluxe samples and sometimes full sized versions of beauty products Reviews from my previous boxes here! This month’s theme was “Routine”. My interpretation is that people are getting back into the routine of things with school starting up again – not that that’s really relevant to…

What’s In My Travel Makeup Bag
A few weeks ago you may recall my post about what I packed in my travel toiletry bag for our Pittsburgh trip last month. Today I’m bringing you my second travel-themed “what’s in my bag” post with everything that I keep in my travel makeup bag!! This is JUST the makeup that I brought with me for traveling – all of my skin care, makeup wipes, and other liquid stuff like that was in my toiletry bag 🙂 First I’ll start with the bag itself. This is the Sephora “Vacationer” travel makeup bag: I actually first saw this recommended in…

Analysis of a Beauty Box: Target
After getting a bunch of really kind and supportive responses for my last Beauty Box Analysis post, I’m super excited to write a second one!! This time I’m going to be covering the Target Beauty Box 🙂 First off, of course, if you haven’t already checked out my Target Beauty Box reviews, you can do so here! In my Sephora post, I had been subscribed to the box for a year, so I had 12 boxes’ worth of products to analyze and compare. I only started getting Target boxes in October of 2016 (and missed a month back in February…

All About Ebates
Today I have a continuation of my “series” about websites you can use to get free stuff or cash for reviews. Previously I wrote about Influenster, BzzAgent, and Pinecone Research. This one is different – it’s the first non-review site I’ve written about, and instead it focuses on cash back for your purchases. Today we’re talking about Ebates! (Edit from the future: you can click here to see all my similar posts about saving money and getting free stuff!) Ebates is a site I actually learned about from my mom, and she’s been using it for ages so I know…

Battle of the Beauty Blenders
Today’s post is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time! I’ve always been curious about comparing different products that are similar in style or function. Makeup sponges a la the Beauty Blender are definitely one of those things!! There’s so much hype around the different sponges and whether they’re “worth it” and now that I own….several….of these sponges, I felt like it was time to officially compare them all. In total, I currently own 16 different makeup sponges: Beauty Blender Original Beauty Blender Pro Beauty Blender Nude EcoTools Perfecting Blender Duo Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge Real Techniques…

Make sure you read the other posts first 🙂 Sunday, May 21, 2017 May 21 was a very special day for our trip, because it was Ana’s birthday!

To celebrate, we had some big plans, including checking into our hotel – the Beach Club!! Since I live in Florida and have a place where Ana and…
