Hello and welcome to this month’s favorites!! I meant to post this a few days ago but honestly I forgot lol…I’ve even had a little list going of things that I wanted to include and I still forgot! Oh well. Here are the things I loved this month – there’s actually a lot!! Beautiful Nutrition Lemon Rinse Clarifying Hair Treatment The first item this month is a beauty item, and it’s actually one that I got in a Target Beauty Box a few months ago! This is a product used to rinse your hair and remove excess product buildup, as…

How I Clean My Makeup Brushes
A few months ago I had a post about how to deep clean your beauty blenders, and I got a lot of nice feedback and messages saying it was really helpful! I decided to do a follow up post about how I wash my actual makeup brushes. After all, they need cleaning too! Washing makeup brushes is honestly a bit of a chore, but it is an absolutely necessary one. I used to wash them less frequently than I do now (we’re talking YEARS ago when I first got into makeup) but I noticed that I got more breakouts on…

Analysis of a Beauty Box: Sephora Play
This is a post I’ve wanted to write for a long time and I’m so excited to finally do it! I mentioned in my most recent (and final, for now) review post of Sephora Play that I had unsubscribed from the box for the time being. I cancelled my subscription because I felt like I was getting more samples than I could use in a reasonable amount of time, and I could have been using my money toward things I actually wanted instead. I have also mentioned in the past that I love spreadsheets and keep them for pretty much…

Friday Favorites #14 – 4/21
Wow, as I wrote the date in the title of this post I literally had to pause and make sure it was correct. I cannot BELIEVE it is already April 21…which means it’s also almost my birthday!! I don’t have any super fun plans on my actual birthday this year because I have to work, but we have some other things planned for our next day off to celebrate. And last year I was in Disneyland on my birthday, so…there’s no way I’m gonna top that so might as well not bother trying haha Also, a very happy birthday to…

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…

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…

My Christmas List
One of my favorite parts of Christmas is picking out the perfect presents for everyone. And every year I make a detailed list for my parents of gift ideas for me 🙂 My mom loves them haha, she says I make shopping so easy because I provide exact links and sizes and colors of everything I like. I originally wanted to post my shopping list of things I’m getting for others, but they all read my blog…so obviously that is not smart. Maybe after all the gift-giving is over I will share what I got for everyone <3 Anyway, today for the 12…

November Empties + End of No Buy?
Happy December!!!!!! It is finally socially acceptable to celebrate Christmas aggressively!! And since it’s the beginning of a new month, I have another empties post with everything I finished last month 🙂 I also have a recap of the month’s no buy which will be at the end of the post! Here’s everything I finished this month: Tony Moly I’m Real Seaweed Mask – I can’t believe this is the ONLY sheet mask I used this month, but it’s true! I have many of these Tony Moly ones that I got in a set, and I like them but like I said…
