February Favorites!


HIGHLIGHTER: Dior Amber Diamond. In the Winter my skin always looks so "blah", but this wonderful highlighter makes me look alive. Well worth the money!

PERFUME: Vera Wang Lovestruck. Such a girly fragrance.

BLUSH: I've been addicted to blush lately so I have a few that I've been switching between this Month.
First up I've been enjoying both Cubic & Dame from my MAC Pro Palette.

Next up is NARS Angelika. From looking at this blush in the pan it looks a bit scary because it's filled with glitter. Once applied the glitter seems to disappear & leaves my cheeks with a natural sheen. Just make sure to powder your cheeks before applying this blush.

EYESHADOW: Ever since I got the Urban Decay Naked Basics palette it's the only thing I reach for. It's perfect for creating an everyday look as well as a night time look.

MASCARA: Maybelline The Rocket is one of those Mascaras that I wan't too crazy about at first, but after about 5 uses it started to dry a bit & now I'm really liking the formula.

LIPSTICK: MAC Angel is one of those lipsticks that I can wear everyday no matter what eyeshadow or blush I wear. This is one that I will keep in my collection.

Perfume Review: Vera Wang Lovestruck * Feat. V-Day gifts!

This is one of those fragrances that I would wear year round. It's fruity in a mature way. The bottle is super cute & looks nice on my perfume tray. At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like Lovestruck or not because my 17 year old Brother bought it for his younger girlfriend. On recent trips to both Ulta & Sephora I gave this a try & realized that I really liked it, but didn't wanna pay full prize for it. My Husband wanted to get me this for Valentine's Day because he said the name "Lovestruck" fit. We were recently in T.J. Maxx & he spotted the box & it was at a steal. The 1.7 oz is originally $68 & we found it for $30!  The scent lingers all Day. I spray it in the Morning and in the evening I can still smell this on my clothes. Its not strong so I will be wearing this into the Spring & Summer. If you get a chance go smell this!

Notes:
Pink Guava, Mandarin, Tuberose, Lotus Blossom, Precious Woods, Sheer Musk. 
Style:
Feminine. Romantic. Spontaneous.


For Special Occasions/ Holidays we usually always tell each other what we want, sometimes its a secret.
He knew how much I really wanted a Coach wristlet to take the place of my bulky wallet so he also picked me up this for Valentine's Day...
We found this at Dillards onsale for $33 originally $58!
What can I say I taught my Hubby how to bargain shop!


What are you Ladies doing for Valentine's Day?
My Husband & I are going out to Dinner & then going watch "Safe Haven". I read the book by Nicholas Sparks & it's amazing! Can't wait to see the movie =)
