Thanks, Coastal Classic Creations. I enjoy smelling like a snow cone.
photo credit: GilmourCreative I ordered a small bag of trial size items from Coastal Classic Creations a few months ago. I have yet to actually review any of the products, but I did post about liking the trial size light to medium concealer while I was sunburned and on the beach with my family. I will eventually get around to posting thorough...
I kind of love my new bathroom.
When we first moved in, I was a little bummed out about how small our bathroom was, but I'm starting to think that it's perfect. It has so many things that I love in a bathroom: lots of counter space, even more cabinet space, a built in towel rack, and a fan.
The top shelf is stuff that we rarely use. The second and bottom shelves are mine, and I gave Kirby the third shelf down. It's somewhat eye level. I figured it'd be a nice gesture since I got more shelves that he did. That's Kirbys Aussie conditioner on...I wish that lightening my hair was easy/safe.

Looking at pictures of Kristen Stewart with blonde hair has convinced me that I may also need blonde hair. It's one of those things that I'll probably never do, but it's fun to pretend. Now would be the perfect time to radically alter my physical appearance, too, since I'm moving and I won't have to deal with all the surprised/disappointed faces. I'm currently scouring the internet for ways to safely lighten my hair. My conclusion: There aren't many. Surprise, surprise. I haven't given up yet, though. I'm gonna talk to all the hairstylists/colorists that I know and see what they say....
A Pretty Dress
I'm feeling pretty uninspired in the health and beauty department right now. I have a few products to review (including Karen's Botanicals Exfoliating Cleansing Grains and Dr Bronner's Lavendar Coconut Hair Conditioner & Style Creme), but I'd like to use them a few more times before posting my thoughts and feelings about them. I could talk about more interesting articles that I've been reading, but I haven't really come across any more that are worth sharing. So, here's a dress that I want:
Modcloth has some of the cutest dresses, and I kind of need this...
Let’s talk about perfume.

photo credit: tanakawho Until a few days ago, perfume had always been a guilty pleasure of mine. I successfully traded in most of my old health and beauty products for safer (and consequently, more expensive) alternatives...but perfume was kind of a hard habit to break. I'd spray just a little on top of my clothes instead of directly on my...
5 products that I can’t wait to try

It's no secret that my cabinets have been overflowing with health and beauty products lately, but a girl can dream...can't she? Also, pay close attention to all the sweet ingredients you're about to encounter. The Answer's PMS Clear Facial Mask- I've yet to find anything that completely gets rid of pre-period breakouts. I guess this stuff could be the ticket. Ingredients- French green clay, Fullers Earth clay, green tea, and papaya extract.
Foods with anti-aging properties? Yes, please.

photo credit: » Zitona « I just read an article about foods that may slow the aging process, and I found it to be both interesting and helpful. I tend to become so focused on health and beauty products that I forget how big a role the food we eat actually plays in our overall quality of life. I plan to buy kiwis, dark chocolate, and white tea tomorrow when I go grocery...
I might be hoarding health and beauty products.
Filed under: consumption, health and beauty, life lessons, natural products, vanity
Moving sucks, but I think that it might suck a little less for me than it does for most people. My possessions are pretty much limited to clothing, accessories, miscellaneous craft items, and a lot of beauty products. I realize what kind of person that must make me seem like, but I can't muster the energy to care. Our bedroom furniture is Kirby's. Our living room furniture is Kirby's. Even our dishes belong to Kirby. I am using Kirby's computer to type this post. We did buy our television together, so I guess that's something...but moving...
Pacifica Solid Perfumes: I’m For Them.
Danielle gave me two Pacifica Solid Perfumes around a year ago (Sandalwood and Mexican Cocoa), and I immediately fell in love with the Sandalwood-scented one. I used it for a couple of months until it started making my head hurt (which tends to happen to me with any scent when I expose myself to it for long enough). I decided to give the other one a try, even though it didn't really smell like my cup of tea while it was in the tin. Surprisingly, after I applied it behind my ears and on my neck,...
Mascara Wars
Filed under: health and beauty, natural products, product review, vanity
I've always had very long eyelashes that hold curl pretty well. I'm just lucky, I guess. Since I have decent eyelashes to begin with and am not expecting mascara to fix any problem, I rarely hate any mascara. I just like some more than others. Here are a couple of reviews regarding the two I've been using recently: Coastal Classic Creations Whispering Seas Mascara in black- Product Description (provided by website)- "Our 'Whispering Seas' Mascara was created meticulously, ingredient by ingredient, eliminating any questionable toxic ingredient heretofore found in many mascara products. Made with the same high purity,...
