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…

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…

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…

Bare Minerals/Buxom Gift Set Review & Swatches
Today I have a review of something really cool that I got for Christmas – a massive gift set of BareMinerals and Buxom products!! I didn’t really know what to call this post, because this set doesn’t really have a name, but I wanted to write about it anyway 🙂 My mom is really good at getting sets like this for a great price – this one contains 14 products!!! Also I had no idea that these two brands had the same parent company but here we are. Anyway, I was so excited to receive this box because I’ve tried very…

What I Got for Christmas
So in the “final” 12 Days of Kaelamas post I said I didn’t wanna write about what I got for Christmas…buuuuut I changed my mind haha. I received so many amazing gifts this year and I really wanted to do them justice, share them all and write about everything. So this is, I guess, the epilogue to the 12 Days of Kaelamas series – everything I got for Christmas! I divided it into a few categories to break it up a bit. My friends and family seriously spoiled me this year, I am so grateful and happy with all of…

Target Beauty Box December 2016
Happy Christmas Eve Eve!!! Like I mentioned in my Sephora box post, that box and this one arrived on the same day…it was a great mail day for me!! This is the December 2016 Target Beauty Box, and it’s really a treat – there’s a ton of great stuff in here!! Target boxes are different from other subscription boxes in that they aren’t actually a subscription – you have to remember to go on and order it each month. Well, I actually didn’t remember to do that so I originally missed out on this one and I was SO bummed…

Sephora Play! December 2016
This weekend I came home from work to find TWO beautiful surprises in the mail – my Target Beauty Box AND my Sephora Play! box!! I’ll review the Target one in a separate post, but today I’m talking about the Sephora box for December 🙂 The theme this month is “The Partygoers”, so there’s lots of cute products perfect for a holiday party! I’m always excited to get my Sephora box, but when I saw the spoilers for this month’s box I knew it was going to be a good one!! I was excited about every product in this box, and I…
