"FREE giant online yard sale in Houston" 

Adam and Austin founded Bookoo, - about 11 years ago - and they actually started out in Texas. They started out with small sites specific for military bases, and have been expanding to larger city's over the last few years. The reason it was so specific for military bases was because people in the military people are always bouncing around. Bookoo made it easy for military families to buy and sell 2nd hand items as they bounced around!

The site is so easy to use and maneuver through. I love that there is a bunch of different categories to search through; furniture, collectibles, clothes, toys, etc. 

^^^^ super easy to post the things you want to sell!!!! Check them out friends. 

L'OREAL Power Moisture

I've been using this mask for about a week now so far two thumbs up. It leaves my hair super soft and smells great. It said to instantly infuse moisture into every strand, locks in intense hydration without weight-down, transforms dehydrated hair into silky, soft, and manageable. I have to agree it does it all. The #1 thing I love is that it doesn't weigh down my hair after blow drying. 

Wish it would have came with a pump I feel like a lot of product is wasted and sometimes I wish it wasn't round. They should have put it in a tall bottle, it takes up a lot of room in the shower or at least in mine. The cost ($5.97) at Walmart is a good price for how much product you get. 

Revlon Pink Pout

Revlon Pink Pout is such a beautiful matte lipstick it's one of those everyday colors. Here's what they say online  "Revlon Matte Lipstick gives suede-like application and maximum colour with on trend shades, that glide effortlessly across lips depositing rich, beautiful, matte colour.” Pink Pout goes on pretty smooth and doesn’t emphasize the dry parts of the lips as much as some lipsticks may do. Also, this products is not heavy at all and you don’t feel that you are actually wearing a matte lipstick.  

You may need some lip balm before applying so it doesn't look as dry and if you want the shine put one some lipgloss! I love it! Go revlon! 

MAC Lipglass: Myth

I'm not really a lipgloss person but I thought I'd venture out and bought the Lipglass in Myth from MAC. It's a milky peach beige with silver sparkle. It’s mostly opaque but does settle into lip lines. The consistency is thick–real thick. 

It's such a beautiful color! I have the lipstick and I love it for an everyday look. I don't like how thick and sticky the Lipglass is. I kissed my husband and he was freaked out how sticky my lips were.  I wouldn't repurchase another Lipglass. 

Gold Bond Ultimate: Skin Therapy Cream

Hey guys! This is probably a random post but my hands have been super dry lately. My skin is cracking, they feel rough they just look ugly. I'm not sure what's causing the dryness I think it might be the dish washing soap or maybe even the baby wipes. Anywho, I bought Gold Bond Ultimate skin therapy cream. It's supposed to heal dry problem skin, has vitamins A, C & E, penetrates fast, non-greasy, fresh clean scent and  hydra-last for 24 hour moisturization. 

The lotion has really helped with my dryness. I use a small amount after washing the dishes, getting out of the shower pretty much anytime throughout the day. It does have a scent so if your the kind of person who can't do scents avoid this product.

Maybelline Cover Stick Concealer

I used this little guy for a week straight and I love it!!! I have really bad dark circles they've always been bad but after after a baby you can really see them now.

This bad boy has excellent full coverage and brightens under the eyes. 

It was easy to put on. I used my ring finger to try and blend it in but the formula is thick (consider before purchasing). I used my beauty blender to blend everything in and it looked perfect. They have so many shades to choose from I got mine in light. I did notice it made me look more oily especially on the forehead and it creased on me :( Honestly, I haven't found a concealer that hasn't creased.

I bought this for $4.96 at Walmart and it's something I would repurchase because of how great the coverage is. 

PONDS Cold Cream Cleanser

I've been using this stuff forever now and I absolutely love it. I use it to take off my eye makeup. At night I'll use Neutrogena makeup remover washcloths for my entire face and then I'll put some of this stuff all over my eyes to remove the rest of the mascara. 

In the morning when I get out of the shower I'll put some more on my eyes just to make sure I've removed ALL makeup. It's super easy to wipe off and leaves your eyes moisturized. Totally recommend and it's like $4 at Walmart. 

Small & Coral

I bought this coral purse at Forever 21 yesterday for $16.80. I like that it's small especially for spring/summer. If your at the park or the beach it's light, secure and cute.

Yes, it's small but you still have different ways to wear it. You can do the one shoulder (messenger style), casual crossbody or even as a clutch.

The inside has a zipper and a pocket.

Happy Valentine's Day

Hope everyone has a spectacular day/night with thier loved ones  If your going out with your significant other or you're making it a girls/guys night make sure you live in the moment and enjoy it. 

David and I had breakfast this morning and tonight we are going to dinner and probably have some drinks afterwards. He got me the clarisonic Mia 2 but it's broken :( so I have to mail it back and wait for another one. I got him a gift card to Home Depot he's into building things right now it was perfect. 

got 2b Products

I've been loving this products. I normally don't put anything in my hair just let it air dry before drying it with the blow dryer. I always see them at the store and coupons for them in the paper thought I try them out. 

I start off with the beach trippin' I spray it in my hair when it's still wet. There's nothing wavy about my hair I'm sure if you had some kind of wave to your hair this would probably be wonderful. I do notice that it helps my hair dry faster that's why I use it haha 

I then put a small amount of this shine serum and work it into my wet hair. I don't really notice it shine but it does make my hair super soft and look healthier. 

I use this if I'm going to straighten or curl my hair. It's just a heat protector. You need to protector your hair with something the heat from the strainer and curling wand can do some damage after time. 

Thy always have coupons for these got 2b products!! Keep an eye out peeps. 

MAYBELLINE FIT me blush

I've really been into trying Maybelline blushes these past couple weeks. I've been liking this new Fit me line and this blush does not disappoint. 

When you swatch it on your hand you can't see a thing. This color is light nude but when you put it on its so pretty! It gives your cheeks a perfect amount of peach color! Mix it with your bronzer and you get that golden goddess look. 

DREAM Bouncy blush

Maybelline had a $3 coupon in the paper this week. I only picked up one of these blushes and lets just say it does it's job. It's super pigmented at first but through out the day it does fade. I love that it's easy to blend and you can build it to look more intense. The texture is a cream/moose feel which is different. I would only repurchase this if I get another coupon I wouldn't go out and pay full price. 

                        50 plum wine 

With your fingertips, blend a small amount of blush onto the apples of your cheeks, applying from your cheekbones to your temples. To build color intensity, apply more blush.

DIY Projects

These past couple of days I've been looking for decoration ideas for my future sister in laws bridal shower. I found two that I was really excited to try. The colors can be changed to match the bridal shower theme these are just examples so she can see what they would look like.

I'm going to spray paint the mason jar a pastel color so go with the theme of the shower. I love the bright flowers :) 

The vase is upside down so you can see the confetti at the bottom. I'm going to add white sand to help let the colors pop. 

This is another vase but I didn't like how it came out. My husband said it looks like a vase for a cinco de mayo party. 

Lorac Pro Cream Eyeliner

LORAC CLOSE UP REAL LIFE TO RED CARPET PRO EYE TUTORIAL

I got this set for my birthday and I absolutely love it! 

The eyeliner is super easy to work with and you can go over it without worrying about leaving smudges. I love that the brush is short it give you more control and it's black, BLACK! 

The cost for the eyeliner alone is $19 a little pricy I know. It's not one of those products that you MUST have, the maybelline eye studio works just as well.
