Loving this Brush!!- Hollywood Glamour Retractable Kabuki
I have been COMPLETELY addicted to this Sigma Hollywood Glamour Retractable Kabuki Brush. This is one of the softest brushes I've come across and it gives the perfect application of powder. It's made with Sigmax fibers (Sigma's synthetic line of HD brushes) and because of that it gives a very good application. It's retractable too, which, IMO, helps the brush keep it's shape longer. The small size of this brush makes it great for travel as well.... trust me, I would know thanks to my #suitcasesummer!!
I won this brush through a Twitter giveaway and I am HOOKED to this line from Sigma, now!
Just figured I'd let you guys know my latest addiction! What's yours?!

Kind Fruit & Nut Bar from my Birchbox!
So I know this isn't really BEAUTY related, but it did come out of my BirchBox so I wanted to review it! The Kind Fruit & Nut bar is one of Cynthia Rowley's recommended items and I have to say it was DELICIOUS!!! I'm not really an almond lover, but I really enjoyed this bar! I had this as breakfast and it really held me over. You can literally see the pieces of everything that is on it and the apricot is so chewy it's divine. I devoured this in 2.5seconds flat lol.
Again, I know this is a random post, but I had to tell you guys about it! I've heard that these are sold in Starbucks, so pick one up & let me know what you think!!

CVS 25% off entire purchase!!
If you are signed up to receive emails from CVS you know they are having a sale for 25% off your entire purchase using your Extra Care card through 7/24!!!!!!!!! If you are a CVS-a-holic like I am then you are probably JUMPING on this deal! I also have some extrabucks, a $2.00 off coupon for Organix items and a few other coupons I plan to combine with this deal! I never pay full price for anything... well if I can control it! This is not good on sale items, but it's still a good deal! I'm not sure if you need the in-store coupon or if it'll print out at that little coupon thingy when you scan your ExtraCare card! Either way get yo booty out to CVS and save on the things you were going to buy anyway!
Just figured I'd share this with you guys!! I'll be tweeting what my deals were! Happy shopping!!

My fav summer hairstyle!
Braids and twists are a HUGE hairstyle this summer, and I am in LOVE with it! North Carolina is a VERY humid area and by the end of the day my hair tends to be a humongous BUSH! When I wear my hair in this style it seems to keep the volume down, and is a very cute look! Sometimes I even spice up the twists with putting my loose hair in a side braid/fishtail braid to give it even more of a boho look!
To achieve this look I just start twisting my hair that's at the front of my head and keep picking up pieces to twist as I follow the hairs along my hairline. Be careful not to pull too tight or you may break off your hair! I fasten each twist with bobby pins in the back of my head, and then I'm out the door! This look is so simple and takes me 5mins TOPS!
If you want me to do a tutorial on my YouTube channel just write it in the comments & I'll be sure to!
Stay cool...

Recent features... I feel humbled!
Hey guys!!!
I know it's been a while since I've blogged, but my life has been going a thousand miles a minute because of my self-proclaimed #suitcasesummer lol.
Just wanted to clue you guys in on some things that have really made me smile lately. When I went to IMATS I got a chance to talk to the women behind the scenes of StyleHaul (a really awesome channel on YouTube that has different mini-series like TheHaul & BrokeGirls Guide). Well I got to do a description of my favorite video on YouTube, and although the whole description didn't make the cut, I did get 5seconds of fame at the 4:22 mark! It was their IMATS edition video and I was towards the end of it! This totally made my day since I've been watching this channel for a while! Click here to watch that video.
THEN, I logged into Beautylish one day, one of the million times I do so daily, and I noticed this cool summer nail trends article. Wellllllllll after reading through the article I realized my video was featured here!!!!!!!
I've got a few more things in the works and I'm really excited about it! Just wanted to give you guys an update on the excitement in my life..... Back to my Chemistry training course!
