Urban Decay NAKED Palette

As a makeup lover I am constantly on the lookout for beautiful eyeshadows, the perfect foundation and skincare routine, and of course the perfect brush. Well I'm still working on finding the perfect skincare/foundation, but I think I have hit the jackpot with Urban Decay's new makeup palette. 



Now this is my first foray into Urban Decay eyeshadow and I am not dissapointed. The colors are absolutely lovely and have great pigmination.


The colors are mostly in the nude family and I am a sucker for nude/bronzy shadows. I bought this palette at Sephora a week ago and I have been wearing these colors pretty much every day.  It not only comes with these amazing colors, but you also get a travel primer potion and you get eyeliner, in black and brown to complete the look.

I can not even begin to explain how happy I am with this palette and I will definetly be checking out more of their shadows and palettes =)

Movin' on up!

So the family and I are moving in a few weeks, and I couldn't be more excited. Not because its a new house or anything like that, but because I get to decorate my room my way!!! The house I live in now, my mom had a say in what all the rooms look like, so that means that the room I have now looks like a 40 year-old-woman lives there. This new room is going to reflect more my style. 

So I've been flipping through some websites and found some really adorable things specifically bedding for my room. 

   










 I mean how adorable is that?? It's Victoria's Secret and is available through their catalog and website.

I was also looking for a new bed set because the one I have now we are most likely going to sell with the house. Look at this one that I found at Ikea.






I know it's kind of plain and boring, but I feel like it has potential. Plus I really like it so whatever. 






I also have some really cute paintings and pictures I can hang up around the room plus a really adorable rug that will just make the whole room pop. Its very similar to this one from Target.------>



If I keep finding new and cute things I will put them here. And be sure to look out for pictures of what my room is going to look like when its done =)

I've decided.......

To try the Tone It Up diet plan. Now I know that I said I was on the Sadhkin Complex with my mom, but I absolutely hate being on it and I feel like it would be better for me to try something new.



Karina and Katrina are certified personal trainers who have a channel on YouTube under Tone It Up. I have been watching their workout videos religiously, and I have noticed a difference in my body. I want to give it a shot and see how the diet plan will fit in with the work outs. Plus who doesn't want a body like theirs? They currently are doing a contest on their page where 10 winners can win their diet program for free...I'm most likely going to compete and see how it goes.

DISCLAIMER: I was not asked by Karina or Katrina to promote them. These are all my own thoughts and ideas.

New Blog

Hi everyone welcome to my blog! I have decided it would be fun to write about everything from health and fitness, to beauty and fashion. And everything that is in between. Hopefully I can succeed with keeping this blog going, and answering any questions that you guys will have.

So first thing is first. I want to talk about this diet that my mother and a few of her friends have convinced themselves is healthy. Its called the Sadhkin Complex and it entails that the participants wear metal balls behind their ears, rotate them every two hours, and follow a strict diet that Dr. Sadhkin personalizes for you. The diet mainly consists of two days fruits and vegetables, and two days milk. In all honesty, the bunch of us have lost weight, but the deal is that we are all so hungry and cranky all the time that not only our relationships with friends and co-workers are strained, but we feel the need to cheat all the time. I personally hate this diet and want to do something else, but because of my mother watching me all the time, I have to do the diet with her, and sneak away to go eat something. I will keep you guys posted on what I want to do...Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
