These are great stocking stuffers or perfect little gifts for the women in your life. Significant other, sister, friend, co-worker, ect.

Mr Bubble Bubbletini Bath Bombs
These are small sized bath both that has that nice sweet and clean smell, what woman doesn't like bubble baths?

EOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm
You can buy tons of these in different flavors and they can be put everywhere; purse, car, backpack, vanity, work desk, bed side table. I've used them and they are one of my favorites!

Ardell Studio Effects Wispies Lashes
These are absolute favorite lashes to wear! They are easy to apply, don't fall off and aren't too long or too short.

Tree Hut Shea Sugar Scrub
These sugar scrubs come in different kinds of scents and I love using them on my legs, arms, feet, elbows and hands. These are very gentle on the skin.

Soap & Glory Hand Food Hand Cream
I love this stuff. It's a great hand cream to put anywhere, it's not greasy, soaks into the skin quickly and lasts for hours through hand washing.

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge
This hands down one of my favorite foundation applying beauty sponges. It makes it easy to apply most of my liquid foundations, easy to handle and lasts a long time before it needs replacement

Snow-fetti Mini Sponge Set
This set has a variety of different makeup sponges; all-over coverage, chiseling, contouring, strobing, backing and specialize application. So if you know someone who is a fan of beauty bleander or makeup sponges in general, this is for them!

Sephora Collection Sleeping Mask - Pearl
Sleeping masks are great since our faces do a lot of damage repairing through the night from all the makeup wearing, oil, dirt, dust, and whatever else gets into our skin during the skin. this mask helps to minimize irregularities for a more brighter complexion.

Sephora Collection Lip Mask - Rose
I love lip masks! They are especially great top use when I wear a lot of lip products such as lipsticks, lip liners, and long wearing lip products. This mask helps to exfoliate, moisturize and soften lips as well and protect them from getting chapped or over dried.

Blogmas 2017 Day 13: Christmas Wishlist

Blogmas 2017 Day 13: Christmas Wishlist

I'm not sure what I really want this year. It's been a rough year finally for me and some close people to me, mainly due to the impact of Hurricane Irma. Many of us lost jobs, homes and family members.

I have a few things I've wanted to try this year or would like to have refills on.

Clarisonic Cleansing Brush Drying Stand
I saw this online and thought, how cool is that. I normally put mine on a seperate towel on my bathroom counter with the brush head facing down to let it air dry.

Clarisonic Cleansing Brush Head Replacement (Normal)
I really need a new one.

Beautyblender Pro Beauty Sponge
I use the pro version on their blotting sponge and I love it for blotting myself throughout the day. Maybe the beauty sponge is just as good. I hear the different colors have different benefits? Who knows.

Urban Decay Naked Heat Palette
I love orange to rusty eyeshadow colors and I've been wanting to have this ever since it came out.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance Palette
I love this brands eyeshadow and contour palettes. This palette is another one of those everyday looks that isn't too dark or too light for me.

Morphe Jaclyn Hill Eyeshadow Palette
I love Morphe eyeshadow and I'm a huge fan of Jaclyn Hill (I met her in person)

Clinique Pretty Easy Liquid Eyeliner Pen
I love this eyeliner pen. It's an exact dupe for the Kat Von D one. Only difference is the price, $2 cheaper.

Too Faced White Chocolate Bar
Not sure if this is still in stores but I love their chocolate bar palettes and I love white chocolate. Does it smell like white chocolate?

Sephora or Ulta Gift Card
Sometimes people forget or don't how to find makeup for me, so they just get me a gift card to there instead so I can the makeup I asked for.
______________________________________

IKEA Alex 9 or 5 Drawer Unit
I already have the 9 drawer unit that is sharing makeup and crafting supplies. I'd like either of the sized to replace my sterilite drawer system that has my crafting supplies in it. It's just not practical anymore.

Michael's Gift Card
I'm a huge crafter so I would like to have one of these!

Blogmas 2017 Day 4: Gift Guide for Him

Blogmas 2017 Day 4: Gift Guide for Him

Let's just honest ... guys are the hardest to shop for during the holidays. Unless you know exactly what he wants! I know my dad, brothers and significant other is always hard. Here are some ideas I whipped up for the guys!

The Art of Shaving Unscented Mid Size 
This brand a great reputation for shaving and grooming. This kit is unscented, which is great for skin that is sensitive to scents. The kit is targeted to prevent ingrown hairs and razor burn, which is painful to deal with. The kit includes their pre-shave oil, shaving cream, genuine badger shaving brush, and after-shave balm pump.

Jack Black Power Trip Travel Set
The Jack Black brand is a big favorite among a lot of guys I hear. This set is targeted for all skin types. It helps with oiliness, pores, dullness and uneven texture. The set comes with their facial cleanser, facial moisturizer, face scrub, and a therapy lip balm to help with prevent those chapped lips. It's free of parabens as well.

Clinique Happy for Him Set
This scent for men if you don't know what they usually wear and want to get them a cologne. I've gotten this for my father a few times and he's loved it. It's not too harsh or too light.

Clinique Great Skin for Him Set
This is another one that I've gotten for my father and he's enjoyed it. Let's face it, men aren't the biggest on taking care of the skin on their face, let alone washing it twice a day. This set is targeted for all skin types and comes with their cleanser, face scrub (great getting that smooth skin and for pre-shaving), sunscreen, and aloe shave gel.

Clinique for Men Sonic System Deep Cleansing Brush
This is much cheaper version that is close to the clarisonic system that I'm about to mention. It's a sonic cleansing system designed to get all that gunk out of the face; dirt, oil, environmental elements and cleans the skin a lot better than hands.

Clarisonic Alpha Fit Cleansing System for Men
Although this is pricey, these systems are worth the money. I have a clarisonic myself and love it! It defenitely cleans my face a lot better than just my hands. This system is targeted for all types of skin on men and is great for pores, blemishes and redness.
