New Raw Food Puppy Diet

Hello loves,
    So I have decided that I am sick of my first born becoming sick and tired of his dry food diet! At times he will literally throw up from the food and he only eats it if he is absolutely starving at the end of the day! So I did some research and looked online to find out how I could feed him better! I'm just starting but I can't wait to make him fun peanut butter and yogurt treats! So I'm going to document our raw food diet journey together so when we're both older we can look back on the time when he first started his raw food diet!
Til' next time,

May 2013 IPSY Bag

Hello loves here are all of the items that will be in the bag for may!,
   ... So I've been super excited and impatiently waiting for IPSY to start revealing their sneak peeks for the May 2013 IPSY Bag. They recently sent out sneak peeks and an email telling us that we will be getting 5 items this month!! The first is a nail polish from ZOYA, everyone will get one of the colors in the pic. The second item is going to be an either/or item. We will either get a lipstick or a lipgloss. I hope I get the lipstick because I have soooo many lip glosses!!Be sure to check back here daily to see more sneak peeks, also feel free to check out my youtube for sneak peeks as well. youtube.com/missbeccanicole90 In other news, IPSY has just started a  referral service, so if you get two friends to join you can get additional items in your bags! I believe they are calling it Ipsypoints. If you want to join IPSY Here's my referral link :  http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-h050vgugwim0kuk




This is an "or" product. I hope I get the lipstick instead of the lipgloss.
 
This image was removed from their site, so I'm not sure if we're gonna get it.
Yay! Finally a concealer! IPSY confirmed that we will only be getting one of the concealer shades. But if it's lighter than your complexion you can use it as a highlight or as a base to make eyeshadows or lip colors pop. If the shade is too dark it can be used as a  contour or as a base for dark eyeshadow colors. You can also mix in foundations that are lighter/darker to help you get a better matching shade. I hope the consistency isn't too watery, if they are, try mixing a little loose transparent powder with it to thicken it up a bit. 
For the last two items Ipsy said that we will be getting two of the items in the above pic.
From left to right the items are:
Pacifica roll on perfume
Arganics by NuMe Argan oil
St. Tropez One Night Instant
Pacifica roll on perfume
Macadamia Natural Oil Healing Oil Treatment
Mirabella Lip Luster Liner
Pacifica Body Butter Tube

I hope I get the Macadamia and Arganics or one of the roll on perfumes, I would hate to get the St. Tropez and lip liner.

April 2013 IPSY Bag Contents Spoiler Alert !

Hello all!
     I'm very excited to finally see some spoilers being revealed for the april IPSY 2013 bag. I hope this month's bag will be better than the last couple of bags.  See UPDATE BELOW for a list of the four items that will be in the bag.
So this is one of the items we will be getting in the bags. I personally hope to get the darker color. These are blushes from Be a Bombshell and retail for $16 each. It's great to see that IPSY is listening to the request of their customers by putting a blush into the bags.
In this pic we can see a pic of the bag which looks like a cute bag for spring, as well as the blushes.

****UPDATE*****
The four items that will be in the april IPSY bag have been released:
1. Be a Bombshell Blush
2. Mica Beauty Shimmer powder in "Earth" (eye shadow?)

E.L.F. Brightening Eye Color: Hazy Hazel, Pretty N' Pink, and Day 2 Night.


Hello, so this is my final post reviewing the E.L.F. Brightening Eye Colors. Today I'm going to review the following quads: Hazy Hazel, Pretty N' Pink, and Day 2 Night. These are just fun quads that you can use to add a little color to your eyes without looking like a clown lol.

Hazy Hazel:

Best Color(s): The first and third colors are the best. The first is a very soft and smooth matte brown that is perfect for the crease. The third color is a nice matte light purple, that can be used to create great daytime looks.
Worst Color(s): The second and fourth colors are the worst. The second color is very chalky and is not pigmented. The fourth color is a little more pigmented and is a weird green gold color.
Would I repurchase/recommend: No, because although I do like some colors, I think that they should be more pigmented even though they are matte colors.

Pretty N' Pink:

Best Color(s):The first three colors are the best. The first color is a nice soft and creamy highlight(although it can easily become chalky). The second color is a very pretty soft baby pink. The third is a deeper more berry pink. All of these colors are soft and apply very nicely, however, be careful not to use too much because it can become chalky.
Worst Color(s): The worst color is the fourth color. It was very chalky and almost impossible to get an even application.
Would I repurchase/recommend: Yes. The first three colors are lovely. I love the fact that there are different shades of pinks, making any look easily changeable.

Day 2 Night:

Best Color(s): All of the colors are really good in this quad. The first is a good highlight (although it can get a bit chalky). The second is a beautiful purple, however, it is not as pigmented as it looks in the pan. The third color is a nice charcoal matte black. The fourth color is a pretty light coopery brown.
Worst Color(s): The only bad thing about this quad is that some of the colors look different then they do in the pan, some take a bit to build up, and the first one can be a bit chalky.
Would I repurchase/recommend: Yes. The colors in this quad are pretty and make it easy to compose a simple look.


Best Quad of the three: The best is Pretty N' Pink(Day 2 Night would be first it pink wasn't my favorite color) because it gives you different tones of pink that can compliment any look.
Worst Quad of the three: Hazy Hazel is the worst because of the lack of pigmentation in some of the colors, however. it is good that they put a lot of matte colors in that quad.

Overall, I enjoyed trying these quads and if I could I would not purchase (Nouveau Neutrals) a few of them(see previous posts), but some of them I am truly glad that I did(drama), and they were well worth the $1. These quads make traveling with  eyeshadows easy and worry free, because should it get misplaced on a trip, it is not difficult or killing my wallet to replace.
