What's In My Make Up Bag

Happy day friends!  I have to tell you that I did a major clean out of my make up recently.  I also cleaned all my make up brushes and the acrylic organizer I use.  It felt so good!  It also made me realize what I was actually using and what I wasn't.  

I did a little shopping to make up for what I was missing and have been super happy with my purchases!  

Enjoy!

1.  BeautyCounter Baby Oil

I really love, love everything about beauty counter!  I use a ton of their products.  I use their baby oil for my girls but recently have been using it to remove my eye make up and love it!  It's much more gentle than anything I've ever used and really does the trick!





Right now BeautyCounter is doing an awesome special that I am so excited about!  It's a 2 for 1 promo for certain products including the eye cream, body wash, body lotion, hand cream and the list goes on!  I am definitely going to be stocking up on some of these items.  Use the promo code 2FOR1 at checkout.







2.  Bobbi Brown Instant Confidence Stick

So normally if things are too good to be true...watch out!  I kind of doubted this product honestly given all the things it promised to do but figured I would give it a try and I'm so glad I did.  This little stick is amazing.  It's kind of like chapstick for your wrinkles and under eye bags.  I literally use it everyday, sometimes multiple times a day.  This is a keeper for me!






3.  Chanel Spark Lipgloss

I've loved, loved this lipgloss for a long time but honestly kind of forgot about it!!  I remembered it because I found a nearly empty tube in the back of one of my make up drawers....oops!  I ordered it again and I have been loving it.

The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth

I don't really want to write this post.  I want to crawl in my bed, with the covers over my head and watch the real housewives of nyc seasons 1 and 2 (before Jill and Bethenny hate each other).  I don't want to talk to anyone, see anyone or answer my phone.  In fact it's been on silent for the past three days.   I am writing this post because I started this blog as a living, breathing diary.  It is a fluid documentation of my life and what is going on right now.  Unfortunately what is going on right now isn't a fun trip, a great product recommendation or a great style entry... it is real life.   This week something sad happened to me and the hubs, we had a miscarriage.  I will tell you that I hate the word miscarriage it seems clinical to me.  What I have said is we lost the baby because that is how it feels to me.   Without boring you or scaring you with too many details I knew something wasn't exactly right.  I started bleeding and was away from home and my

I'm Jealous Of My Husband

I have to be honest I almost didn't publish this post.  This is a real and raw post.  I finally hit publish because I figured I couldn't be the only one feeling this way. I will tell you I didn't know I was jealous of Matt at first.  I knew I was angry, resentful, overwhelmed and afraid.  As a wife and mother the to do list seems never ending.  Whether you work or not being a mother is one of the hardest jobs, if not the hardest job on the planet.   Matt and I are blessed to both have fulfilling careers and therefore we have someone who helps us 5 days a week.   For a long time I felt bad for being a working mother.  I've made my peace with that.  I am now thankful instead of guilty.  It was a long road but I'm in a good place with it.  I'm not saying that from time to time I don't wrestle with working and being mother but on the whole I am comfortable with my choice.   So when these feelings started creeping up I thought it was working mother's gu

A Sad Season

I have to tell you that these past few months and perhaps this year have been hard and yes sad.  My mother told me when we were talking about it that I was experiencing "a sad season" and I have to agree. Now this doesn't mean that everything has been awful, sad and terrible.  I haven't been in bed for weeks at a time with the covers over my head watching trash tv.  Instead I feel like it has been one of those times were the hits just keep on coming.  The bad news just keeps rolling in like ocean waves.  It has been a time of tremendous loss and sadness.  The events that have occurred aren't the same but it felt like every time I would get my ahead above water something else would happen.   It has been difficult because there are happy times mixed in to all of the sad.  In those times of happiness I have genuinely tried to be in the moment but my heart wasn't in the right place.  My heart has not felt happy and there has been an undercurrent of sadness tha
