Hello lovelies! This summer I had a sudden urge to paint my house. Simon and I have lived in our home for nearly three years (already!), and I felt like we needed an update.

Vacationing in Las Vegas
Hello readers! How is everyone? I recently went on a little vacation to Las Vegas and wanted to share my experience.

When I saw the new Avon Crave Lip Glosses in the catalog a few months ago, they really caught my eye. They have seriously ADORABLE packaging! Each tube contains 0.3 fl oz so they are small. I’m actually okay with that, because…
Eyeko London Lash Alert Mascara
Hello lovelies, and happy Sunday. I received a trial size of the Eyeko London Lash Alert mascara in my February Ipsy bag. I’m always very stocked to receive mascaras.
