Check In Time: Perfume No-Buy: Falling In Love Summer

I want to start this post with a confession...I broke both my shower gel and perfume no buys with Philosophy's latest Scents of Summer TSV.  Please don't judge me...

That being said, since I just finished my bottle of Falling In Love I took out my new Falling In Love Summer spray. I have a feeling that this just might last throughout the summer since it is a 4oz.

This is basically a mix of Summer Grace and Falling In Love with sweet berries, coconut, a light floral and dries smelling very fresh.  I've noticed that unlike a lot of Philosophy's other fragrances, this seems to last longer.


As always, thank you for taking the time to visit my blog :)

Check In Time: Perfume No-Buy: FIL

Another one bites the dust...(That song always seems to creep into my head whenever I finish a bottle of perfume...)

Anyway...
Since I finished up my Too-Too rollerball, today I started using Philosophy's Falling In Love, which is quite fitting for the beginning of February.

It's such a pretty and slightly sweet scent that reminds me of a mixture of cotton candy and berries...absolutely love it!

Note: You can read about my no-buy here.


Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog and have a great weekend :)

Check In Time!!!! New Haircut

I styled my hair for the first time last night since getting it cut and I think that I actually like it. The problem was when it was blown out you couldn't really see the different layers but now that it's been straightened, it looks a little choppier.

When I go back next month for a trim I'm going to see if she can make the "stacks" stand out a little more.

Check In time!!!! Bare Minerals

I thought it would be nice to have updates on products that were previously reviewed. There are so many times I hear about all these rave reviews on products that are first purchased...what happens with them over time? Right now I'm so excited because I have a lot of ideas for this!

In my opinion, there's no better way to start out than with an update on my Bare Minerals experience. I've been using it for almost a week and am loving every second. I was originally worried upon taking home the kit because I wasn't sure if I'd have the same results as I did in the store but it still looks great! I can't remember a time when my skin was 100% clear and lately it's been breaking out really bad. I never imagined I would actually come across a product that covers such as this. My skin looks even, clear, and has such a nice glow to it. The people I work with (and even my family) have been asking what I've been doing because my skin looks so good.

I've also noticed I haven't needed any touch-ups at all throughout the day. Usually at some point in the afternoon I have to fix something but this really lasts. I feel so confident and pretty as opposed to the embarrassment I've been feeling dealing with acne.

I've seen a difference in my skin after I take the makeup off as well. My face isn't as red and the breakouts have gotten a lot smaller. I'm hoping that overtime it'll continue to improve.
