These can be used for hair cuts, colors, or just styling, which is great!

It's the Silk'n Flash & Go Express. The machine in stores would cost around $200. This is the most expensive thing I've ever received from Influenster, but also the item that has excited me the most! <br><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirwkA0nFIfSvB2tUKPQwZfERjn-v_7iCmtksqFczmUUTB_Cj_qNqz1TO9bop1b7eDGLH5bfWb5y39lAA5Drzavo6gkPkdo6I0wmYEYGQj9eh8XXkRi74Q0mwIC5P5YLP2q9FMubx4f415N/s640/blogger-image-263526557.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirwkA0nFIfSvB2tUKPQwZfERjn-v_7iCmtksqFczmUUTB_Cj_qNqz1TO9bop1b7eDGLH5bfWb5y39lAA5Drzavo6gkPkdo6I0wmYEYGQj9eh8XXkRi74Q0mwIC5P5YLP2q9FMubx4f415N/s640/blogger-image-263526557.jpg"></a>I've always wanted to try laser hair removal. Something at home would be even more convenient and wonderful! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">Tonight I tried it out for the first time. You have to shave the area first and make sure it's clean of deodorant and lotion. Then you plug the machine in and you're ready to go! </div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">You press the on switch and hold the button down, moving it a little every time it flashes. This would make a lot more sense if I were showing you. It flashes a light on the area, then you have to move it in a line or clear path to make sure you get all of the hairs. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The machine is suitable for face, underarms, arms, bikini line, and legs. It takes multiple treatments to work fully. I've only done one treatment so far, on every area I listed, with the exception of my face, which doesn't have any excess hair. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Uk_FwnMy_e0ZPcej9itzv52akagVv-86x-Ay7ZN-DR6GhrYyDGdiTODArjDjlvMDjK-BHiF-QkyYRtGJNdvrHvkgd2IapGS8FuKKoE4_D7p0Rr5O4Cf0dLEORKZWHb4ec1rx3zgL1n27/s640/blogger-image--587620984.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi-Uk_FwnMy_e0ZPcej9itzv52akagVv-86x-Ay7ZN-DR6GhrYyDGdiTODArjDjlvMDjK-BHiF-QkyYRtGJNdvrHvkgd2IapGS8FuKKoE4_D7p0Rr5O4Cf0dLEORKZWHb4ec1rx3zgL1n27/s640/blogger-image--587620984.jpg"></a></div><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The machine doesn't hurt at all to use. The light gets a little warm, but not warm enough to hurt you. The areas I used this on have an odd sensation. They feel a little itchy but not enough that I actually want to scratch them. It's really not that uncomfortable. I have very sensitive skin, so trust that if this machine doesn't hurt me, it most likely won't hurt you. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">I'll keep you updated on how well this works over the next few weeks (you need to use this every two weeks). </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">If you're interested in purchasing one of these systems yourself, I've been given a code that will give you a discount!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I thought that I would write a post about when I had my eyelash extensions put on & how I liked them! I decided to get eyelash extensions after watching youtube videos by Alexandrea Garza. She sold me on them!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I got on yelp and tried to find the best price for the best quality I could find. I found a woman with very good reviews who would do it for $40. This was for synthetic lashes and their application.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have pretty light hair naturally, and have pretty light colored eyelashes. They're not particularly long, but considering my genetics, are skyscrapers of lashes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The process begins with the esthetician taping down the lower lashes, so that your top and bottoms don't get glued together. They only put lashes on the top. She applied each lash, one at a time. It takes a long time, but I'm blanking on the length. A lot of people fall asleep during this, but I counted songs to try and help the time go by. It doesn't hurt at all. It just feels like someone lightly touching your eyelashes, nothing mroe.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This was my after. I asked for dramatic and full lashes. They were so beautiful. You can't get them wet for at least the first day to try and keep the glue working.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">While you have them on, you're supposed to try and avoid eye makeup, especially mascara. Mascara is pretty much a no-go unless you have a VERY special event. Honestly, these lashes are so beautiful and dark, you don't need mascara.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You cannot sleep on your face, or side of your face with these on. You have to keep your face pointed up while you sleep, which was very hard for me. I tended to sleep on one side more than the other, and those lashes tilted a bit, which wasn't quite so great. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">You also have to take a great bit of caution when washing your face and showering. You can't scrub your face like usual, because you have to take great caution with your eyes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello Lovelies!♥</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Just a bit of news I wanted to write about!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My boyfriend and I bought a new car! A Kia Forte EX GDI.♥</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">After years and years of driving decrepit old cars that did nothing but break down on me and leave me stranded, I finally have something reliable, safe, and brand new.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The first car I ever drove was a Ford Thunderbird....and it was not cute. I often compared driving it to driving a boat. It was huge and really low to the ground. The car was a mess honestly.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">On New Year's my mom decided that she wanted to drive the Thunderbird, and I got the Mustang. More specifically, it was a 1989 v8 Ford Mustang convertible with a 5.0 something something. It's all fancy to talk about to people who know cars, but to me it was just the beast that left me stranded more times than I could count. Only the passenger window rolled down, the battery had a temper, the whole thing smelled like cigarettes, & nicotine rained down on me every time the sky did. It was not air tight nor water tight, and had the touchiest gas pedal you've ever felt. I named it the Go-stang, because it drove more like a go-kart, and I loved it.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Last year around this time, I was given my grandma's 2002 Mitsubishi Montero as a hand-me-down. I was overjoyed. Sure, it took a lot of gas, but so did the Mustang! It was high off the ground and a lot of fun to drive. It felt safe. It was ruby red with a tan leather interior. It burned oil like no other. Soon I realized the mustang was probably twice as fuel efficient as the Montero. It's brakes started to give out. Some part flew off of it and left me on the side of the road. The brakes got much much worse & would often be delayed by 5 seconds before they would start working. It turns out it had some magical part Mitsubishi only put in the 2012 model, and cost loads to fix. We didn't know what to do, but every time I stepped in that car it got more dangerous.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One of my friends brought up the possibility of leasing a pre-owned car. My boyfriend Dave and I decided to go check out the sales from the holiday weekend. One thing led to another and we ended up buying a new car!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I fell in love with the graphite color, which was only available on the EX GDI model of the Kia Forte. We decided to go with this model because of the color, as well as other features. It has a bigger, better engine. It has a back-up camera. It has better seats and a lot of little differences in the looks of it. It also has the low profile tires.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dave and I with the new baby. This was the first picture I put up of it. We bought it <i>together</i> and it was important to me that we were both in it. Dave doesn't drive, which is his own choice. We drive everywhere together, and I drop him off at work before driving to mine. We are a one car family.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One thing I have noticed, is that family and friends think Dave bought this car for me, or he bought it and I just drive it. They don't seem to think I contribute at all to it. Sure, Dave makes more money than me, but we bought this car together. It's <i>ours.</i> Both of our names are on all of the information for it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It's been a long summer.....& one without posting. Let's just consider that my summer break, and blogging is back in session! Okay, no promises....but I really am going to try and put more effort into this whole thing.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My summer has been.....eventful. I am a homebody. I love staying at home and doing stuff around town. I like traveling but I don't do much of it. That being said, this summer has been out of the ordinary. I went and visited my cousin in Portland, OR, drove to San Diego, CA, and went to Vegas, NV three times! This is unheard of for me! Would you guys like to read posts on any of these trips? Let me know :]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I now have worked at my job just shy of two years. I like the work alright, but it isn't a dream job for anyone. I work at a dialysis center as an assistant biller. Lately I've been having trouble with a co-worker. It's been a little over two months of this & I think it might finally be getting better....except every time I think that - it gets worse. Needless to say, I'm looking for work. I feel like I'm on the verge of getting more responsibilities, but I don't want to get trapped in one line of work, or one business. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Anyways, I'm excited to start blogging again! I have loads of Erin Condren planner spreads to share, and lots of months of ipsy, Birchbox, and Boxycharm subscription boxes. I'm also a bridesmaid in a wedding I've already made quite a bit of things for, so I can upload some DIY's for you all too!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That's it for this post or I'm just going to start rambling!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello Friends!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have become so over the top obsessed with Erin Condren planners!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I received my planner at the end of March, beginning of April. I decided to go back into earlier weekly spreads so that I could decorate those as well. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is my spread for March 16th-22nd.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used washi tape and stickers for everything!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I decided to only use green washis to fully emphasize St. Patrick's Day and the surrounding weeks. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The washi tapes were from Michael's. The stickers were from a friend!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">For the 17th, I decided to do it up big with green details, especially because I didn't have many things to write! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used three pieces of washi for the morning section, with a little thin washi surrounding it. The middle section is a post-it from the Target dollar spot that I cut to fit and added some adhesive to. The third section is more washi!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The 18th has a little piece of washi that I cut the sides to look more like a pennant.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This spread is really similar to the other side. I didn't add too much to the days because the washis are very bright and I wanted them to be the focal point. Then I added some flower details to give it a little extra color! </span></div>
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I kept with the green detail but took it a different way.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I added the washi directly to the morning, day, and night spreads. I then wrote the details of my day under the washi.</span></div>

The theme for this month is "lucky charm"! I think this is just adorable! It's got a really cute poem on it, but it implies the box will have gold and green items, which it definitely does not. It's more of a orangey-pink box!</div>

I love that Boxycharm does a breakdown of the items with information on how to use the products and the prices. It really is super helpful!</div>

The items in this box total to $112! The box only costs $21 a month, so this is $91 extra!</div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hey there friends!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have a new addiction.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">How I prevented myself before from falling into the never ending shopping spree that comes with owning an Erin Condren planner is beyond me....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">But I've caught the bug! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A couple weeks ago my water spilled all over my bag. It ruined my old planner. This was a travesty. But! I thought that this had to be a sign from God herself [All Hail Martha!] to break down and finally buy a real Erin Condren planner. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I chose to buy the classic sea life planner in navy. & I LOVE IT. I had it personalized to have my name written on it! I cannot wait for it to get here! But it takes sooo long. I also ordered a carry all clutch in scales. Because these two items cost so much, I was able to get the Sun kind of wonderful tank for free! I ordered them the 13th and they still haven't shipped but I think they will ship later this week!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyways, my friend is getting married in November and she asked me to be one of her bridesmaids! I decided to get her a wedding planner from Erin Condren, since we both are obsessed. Neither of us have ever had a planner so fancy & I cannot wait to give her hers! She doesn't know that I bought it for her & it's going to be such a surprise.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'll post pictures of my planner and case as soon as I receive them in the mail! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I made an unboxing video for when I received the wedding planner :] It's the first one I've ever made, so I hope it isn't too bad :)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I go into detail about opening the items I received that would just take too long to type! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'll post another video like this when I get my own planner!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have also started collecting loads of items from Michael's, Joann's & Walmart, and am hoping to do a haul for it soon!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">To be honest when I first got this box I had doubts. I've gotten hair care product samples in boxes like these before and they are pretty hit or miss.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Also, since I've started coloring my hair again, I don't want to mistreat it anymore than I already am. Just because a product is "color safe" doesn't mean it's actually good for the hair. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is the CC creme out of the box. The bottle is super odd, but I quite like it! I think the opening of mine might be broken but it still works fine, it just doesn't seem like that's how they would want it to work. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have never seen a blue color corrector before. It's kinda fun to use in the shower though! It makes everything blue which is really interesting. I don't usually use color correctors. My hairdresser tells me that I'm lucky because my hair doesn't get brassy, so this is a product I wouldn't usually buy.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've had products before with passion flower extracts and really liked them, so I hoped that I would like these!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The first time I used these products, I was really unsure about the smell. I didn't really care for it and thought it was strange. The second time I used it I actually liked the smell quite a bit.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I like the feeling of these products in my hair! After my showers my hair is very clean feeling and I really like the color of my blonde. I am actually really happy that I received these products for testing purposes. They make my hair feel really nice and I like the smell. The bottles are pretty as well!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I would rate this voxbox 5/5! I loved the products I received and would recommend them to others!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I do have one concern however. The insert in the box makes it sound like I should have received 4 products instead of 3. I did not receive the "Illuminating Elixir". This is fine, but it just seems like it should have been in there.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love making plushies but I've found that keychains are a bit more functional!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello Lovelies!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I've decided to just make this an ongoing thing, since it's easiest to write about stuff you care about!</span><br />
<br />
[If you want to read my earlier post where I went into detail about these marimos click <a href="http://milkpolka.blogspot.com/2015/01/marimos-adoption.html" target="_blank">here</a>.]</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My Marimos are being shipped to me now! I was way too excited to wait for them to be here, and made a quick trip to Michael's to get their housing situated!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I bought everything I could think of to make my own version of the cute little Marimo tanks I had seen on Etsy, YouTube, and other websites. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here's what I bought:</span></div>
<br />
<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">"Stone granules", which is basically just sand only slightly thicker, in a light tan color</span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Seashells</span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">A Wreath made of sticks</span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Two spools of ribbon</span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Four glass jars</span></li>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I took a black Ultra Pro Satin box and began painting it with acrylic paint. It might have been smart to put a coat of mod podge or something down before I started painting, but I didn't have the patience for it.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hello All! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Welcome to the first post of the New Year! ♥</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I played hooky today and stayed home to hang out with my cousin! We went to a bookstore and drank tea and had a great time! While we were there she told me she had been considering getting a Marimo.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">What is a Marimo, you ask? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's a little ball of algae typically found in lakes in Japan and Iceland. It is spherical in shape thanks to the water flow of the river. Putting the marimos in aquariums has become quite popular. They are very low maintenance "pets" that require water, a little indirect sunlight, and some cleaning. & they look like this! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Also, in Japan they're thought to bring good luck!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I was instantly hooked.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It wasn't until I got home, however, that I realized the extent of my obsession. I bought 10. I bought the "nano" size, which are less than a centimeter in diameter! I figured I would give a couple to my cousin, keep the majority, and give one to my friend as a desk pet. My cousin ended up buying one when I was with her, as well. She bought a pre-made aquarium kit with one little Marimo in it, and it's absolutely adorable. I have opted to buy the marimo on their own and make them a little aquarium, because of my indecisive nature. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

<ul>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My cousin bought her adorable kit from <a href="https://www.etsy.com/shop/MossLoveTerrariums?section_id=13989402&ref=shopsection_leftnav_2" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></li>
<li style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I bought my 10 marimo from <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Marimo-Mossball-0-8~1cm-High-Quality/dp/B00RFLZXI6/ref=sr_1_19?ie=UTF8&qid=1421135130&sr=8-19&keywords=marimos" target="_blank">here</a>.</span></li>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I'm really excited for them to get here! I have a really bad track record when it comes to small pets, but I know I can help to make my marimo flourish! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I thought I would keep the ball rolling from my blog post yesterday and post another today!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">WOW! Two in a week? Is this Christmas? No, this is just how it should be! [My bad, apologies...]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So I'm going to put on some music and review some of the most recent beauty boxes I've received, for all of you!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I thought I would kick this off by reviewing the Birchbox from October 2014. Birchbox was my first box I subscribed to, and I really like it. Birchbox is a service that costs $10 /month. For this, you get 4-5 beauty or lifestyle products, chosen specifically for you after you fill out a quiz. Birchbox gives you smallish samples of upscale products. They do beauty, but I've found that compared to the other boxes, they give you more skin care than anything else. I am not complaining about this! I love that they specialize in upscale skin care!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Let's get into it....</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Above is my Instagram picture of the box I posted the day I got it. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">October's box came with:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Mally Beauty High-Shine Liquid Lipstick Pen in Blossom</span></li>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
Starting with <b>Mally Beauty High-Shine Liquid Lipstick Pen in Blossom.</b></span></h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Review:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love this lipstick! It's a really cool concept and executed really well! It's kind of a lipstick, kind of a lipgloss. It feels pretty nice on my lips, but because my lips are constantly super dry, I always wear it with chapstick. It's a really pretty color on it's own, but looks really nice paired with other colors as well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rating:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5/5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I would actually buy this product. I really like it. I would go for another color, since I don't use lipstick up very fast.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<h2>
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Essentiel Elements Wake Up Rosemary Shower Gel</span></b></h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Review:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is a really nice smelling shower gel! It has strong hints of mint as well, as it smell just like my mint shampoo! It softens skin really nice and washes off well.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rating:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">4/5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I would not buy this product. I'm picking with which shower products I buy, and even though I like the smell, it will probably take me a long time to use it, just because it isn't my favorite.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<h2>
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">ModelCo Power Lash Long Wear Black Mascara</span></b></h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Review:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I LOVE THIS MASCARA! & I'm really picky when it comes to mascara! It gives eyes a really nice "60's look". That's the only way I know how to describe it. It has the perfect mixture of volume and length.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rating:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">6/5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I legitimately want more of this mascara! & I'm aware that I created and destroyed my own rating system, it's fine! ;]</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<h2>
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Harvey Prince Petaly Noir Perfume</span></b></h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Review:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love love love Harvey Prince fragrances! Ageless is my absolute favorite. Petaly Noir is a much more sexy night-time scent, and I love it! Here's how Birchbox describes it, since I'm not a scent professional, "<span style="background-color: white; color: #444444; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px;">It’s inspired by long, moonlit walks and orchids in full bloom. But a single breath of this elegant scent reignited our belief in love at first sight (or, in this case, sniff). Rich with lush florals and hints of musk, this fragrance adds an instant air of romance—whether we’re taking that midnight stroll or gearing up for our morning commute."</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's lovely!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rating:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">5/5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love this perfume! But since it is a little pricey, if I buy a Harvey Prince perfume it will be Ageless - Pink Grapefruit!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<h2>
<b><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Dr. Brandt Pores No More Vacuum Cleaner</span></b></h2>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Review:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I do like this product, but it's a little drying on my skin, perhaps since you're supposed to wash your face before you use it, and my face cannot really handle that kind of thing. I think it's really cool that it changes color on your face when it's ready to wash off though!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rating:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">2/5</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will use up my entire sample, and I am glad that I have it, but I'm just not super keen on it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So....as an overall rating for this box, I would give it a <b>B</b>, which I found by literally averaging all of my scores! I really really enjoy some of the products, but do like all of them as a whole!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Hope you enjoyed this review, I will be reviewing all of my other October and November boxes, so keep your eyes open! :]</span><br />

My 8<sup>th </sup>anniversary with my boyfriend was yesterday, as well as my holiday party for work. I had to go early to help set up and we didn’t get out of there until quite late. This is also the month that my best friend finally ties the knot! I am absolutely so excited and honored to be a bridesmaid. </font></p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">She gets married at the end of this month, but it feels like it’s next week! I still need to finish her wedding present, which I will probably put up a DIY or blog post for after I have finished it. I made her a little “housewife kit” basket for her bridal shower including lots of trinkets and things that you need in the kitchen. I could also make a short post about what I put in there! </span></p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Around Christmas everything will get super crazy. Christmas Eve is the biggest day of the year for my Dad’s side of the family and we always have dinner followed by presents. This year my family agreed to have lunch instead of dinner, so that I can go to my best friend’s Mehndi, which is an event before her wedding, where henna is put on and fun times are to be had by all! I think that sentence describes pretty well that I’ve never been to one. Then Christmas Day I have morning and presents with my immediate family, followed by Christmas morning at my boyfriend’s house as well. Then we go to my Grandma’s house and do presents there. Then I’m supposed to go back to my best friend’s house and spend the night, as the next day is her wedding!</span></p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">The day of her wedding they are having professionals do the bridesmaid’s hair and makeup, which I’m super excited about, because I’ve never had both done for me! </span></p><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><p style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">If I make it through those three days, I will come out a stronger person!

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">As I said in my last post, I won a Beauty Bash sponsored by Benefit and Birchbox! :] Here's a little post to show you all the decorations I made for the party! ♥</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here I took 7 black hearts from Michael's. They came with rope to hang from, and luckily I already had some of this stuff at home, so I hung it from it! I took white paint pens that I also got from Michael's and drew letters onto them. I thought that this would look cute and break up the mountains of pink decor I had planned! All of the little hearts were less than a dollar and the pens were a little more than a dollar a piece after the coupon.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here I took washi tape and glitter paper and folded it across some baker's twine. Then I cut the pieces into little pennant flags and glued them down. Tiny decorations are the cutest! This craft literally cost nothing to make!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I wanted really fancy straws for my party, so I knew I'd have to make some! I bought a box of the most adorable pink straws imaginable, then took gold paper and folded it across the straws, cutting it into triangle pieces. Then I glued it down. Super easy, super adorable, super cheap. The straws were actually kind of expensive at around $10 a box. The paper cost less than a dollar.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used gold metallic paper, pink paper, patterned paper, and raised glitter paper. All in all that cost less than a dollar since Michael's was having a HUGE sale.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is the snapchat I sent out to my guests to keep them excited. My grandma helped me to cut out eyeliner and lipstick shapes from foam posterboard. Then I took my paint pens and wrote the label on them. The netting design on top and bottom was done with a ruler and a dull pencil. A sharp one would have cut into the board.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Well hello my blogging beauties!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's safe to say that after a long hiatus I am BACK.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I so desperately miss blogging and sharing my life and interests with complete strangers on the internet. ♥</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">{But let's not be strangers forever! Let's get to know each other!}</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, as a little update....this is the first September that I haven't been enrolled in classes. Kinda weird. I'm really enjoying the reduction in stress levels! I am still working at my medical billing job, and the office politics are as insane as ever, but I'm keeping my head up!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One thing that has really helped to motivate and inspire me lately is the Beauty Bash thrown by Benefit and Birchbox. It started out as a contest with 1,000 winners, but has since been opened to 1,500. We were all competing to be one of the 1,000, who would win a very special box full of samples of Benefit brand beauty necessities. I entered, fully expecting to have no chance of winning this contest, but.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I WON.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img alt="images" src="http://beautybash.birchbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/610xNximages.jpg.pagespeed.ic.phOAn-n_uE.jpg" height="265" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="400" /></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">{Here's a picture from the Birchbox website showing everything hostesses are given to throw the party!}</span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I cannot believe it still! I feel so honored to have won a contest put on by two of my absolute favorite brands. Benefit makes such high quality products and they always have the cutest advertising and packaging. I've been subscribed to Birchbox for over a year now and love it. {Btw, their September box is on point! Expect a blog on that soon!} </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The box of samples is for the hostess and 5 of her closest gal pals! I cannot wait to share these samples with my girls! Half of them have tried Benefit products, the other half have not, so it should be a really good mix. The hostess is supposed to throw a party the weekend of the 26th - 28th{National Wingwomen Weekend}, so we have just under 2 weeks! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><img alt="090914_congrats" height="400" src="http://beautybash.birchbox.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/610x610x090914_congrats.png.pagespeed.ic.3-csebmQ_k.jpg" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="399" /></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">{<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Another picture of the samples from the Birchbox website!}</span></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">There is an extra contest within this contest, called Hostess with the Mostest. The winner of this prize claims ALL of the Benefit products on Benefit's website, which is over $2,200 worth of amazingness. Obviously, I would just die if I was chosen! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Anyways, I am just so excited to be participating! I have already bought a ton of party decorations and necessities and have already started crafting a ton!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">If you saw Disney's new film Maleficent, you might just be as amazed and obsessed as I am! I knew that I would love the movie, and decided to dress to the theme!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is how I did my nails for the movie! I chose a very pretty color of purple I received recently and did an accent nail with green glitter. Then I drew Maleficent's horns on another finger nail.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">We're finally here. We made it. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My last semester of my undergraduate career. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I graduate in 5 days.....</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I may be going crazy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have been in school since I was four years old. That's 18 years of education. As my last semester comes to a close, I am left with so many feelings. The first: relief. I am quite done with school. My whole life has been filled with lectures and exams. & as so many of my peers are feeling, I too am battling senioritis. All of the extra assignments my professors throw at me seem like literal attacks. This semester has been one of my most challenging. I honestly thought last semester was my most difficult, but I was wrong. Spring 2014 has been very difficult and trying. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I am also feeling quite a bit of sadness. This was not just my last undergrad semester, but also my last semester as an active sister in Iota Delta Sorority. I love my sorority and will miss seeing all of my sisters several times a week. I am very glad that I can come back as an alum and still be part of the sisterhood. I received two littles and a grandlittle this semester. I am most sad about having to leave them before knowing them well. I do feel very fortunate to be so close to them geographically and I know that I will see them often.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Here is a picture of my first Little [or O.G. Little, as she's come to be known] at formal. The even took place at the Hotel Maya in Long Beach, California. The venue was beautiful! My dress was from a pin-up shop and was 1940-1950's style. I did my hair in 1940's style victory rolls, and paired it with a handmade feather head piece and headband, in 1920's style. Even though most of my outfit was not theme-perfect, I received a lot of compliments for dressing "to the theme".</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love how easy this product goes on. I literally apply it with my fingers. I have brushes, really nice brushes. MAC brushes....but this stuff goes on so well with just my fingers that I haven't even tried.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's really easy to achieve a nice even application too. It makes my face really soft :]</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Rimmel London challenged Influenster Uni Vox Box recipients to "Create a London Look", and I'm going to be using the one I created for a recent trip to Disneyland. ♥</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I started by using Rimmel London's Stay Matte Liquid Mousse Foundation, in Light Porcelain, my shade. I then applied a small amount of blush to the apples of my cheeks using a discontinued product by Hard Candy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I put some of Urban Decay's eyeshadow primer potion on my eyelids, because I knew it was going to be a rather hot day, and my eyelids require it to keep any shadow on for even an hour. [I think my kind of lids are called hooded?]</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I used my naked 3 palette, and applied "Dust" all over my lids, focusing on my brow bone and inner corners. I took the smaller side of the brush and lined under my eye as well. I then took "Trick" and applied that to the center of my eyelid, as well as the center of my under eye. Then I took "Buzz", potentially my favorite color, and applied that to the outer corners of my eyes.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I lined my eyes with black cream eyeliner and used Rimmel London's Scandal Eyes Retro Glam mascara in 003 Extreme Black, which is quickly becoming my favorite drugstore mascara. I also received this product from Influenster. ♥</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I then put on some peachy lip gloss, over a coat of Vaseline, and headed out the door to a magical day. ♥</span></div>

Another item review from my Influenster UniVoxBox that I received complimentary thanks to Influenster! </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This time it is a review on the Red Rose Real Tea Black Tea! A "premium water enhancer"! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love how easy it is to make this stuff. I love love love tea but honestly it's almost always just easier to grab a soda than to heat up a kettle of water, steep your tea, then refrigerate it. This stuff is as easy as grabbing a glass of water, but more fun.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I kinda really enjoy squeezing it into my cup.....I definitely put too much! But I like strong tea, so it's okay for me. It's a little too strong for my boyfriend, however.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">[Here's a little video showing how easy it is to make the tea! Ignore my messy room, we're moving stuff around!]</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">One thing I think is really cool is that it makes 24 servings, but is in a teeny tiny bottle! You could totally bring it to a picnic or a party and have enough drinks for everyone, provided they enjoy tea!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I will definitely be using up my little bottle and investing in more later. I can't wait to try the other flavors!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love that it can be used in hot or cold tea, and that it came with a coupon! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">NYC New York Color Expert Last Lipstick, in 447 Forever Fuchsia. ♥</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">It's such an amazingly bright color. It really is forever fuchsia too. I tried it one night and woke up with it still on. Which is actually pretty great!! I like to pair it with a lipgloss because I'm not a super big fan of the matte look. It goes on like butter and feels amazing. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sooooo pinky! :] Beautiful color. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I also really like that it has blue undertones. Blue undertones help to make your teeth look whiter, which I'm all for. This lipstick can be found online for just over <b>$2.</b> & it's actually really high quality. I still kinda can't believe it. But if you're looking for a new lipstick, you should really check theirs out! ♥</span><br />
