My top 12 favorite websites

Every day either in the morning or when I come home from work or day off, I get on my computer and and hit one button to get to my favorite websites I have bookmarked, "Top Sites" in Safari on my Mac. It either keeps track of history, or you customize it to what you want it to look like. I though I take a picture and show you the websites that my computer has and share the links with you.

New Sigma's this month!

Can't say enough how much I love Sigma Brushes! I bought some about 2 months ago, Sigma Sigmax brushes, and love those so much and have been holding up every single day. This time I wanted to buy 2 new ones, one for my makeup bag to travel with and a blush brush for my new Tarte Amazonian clay blush (in Blissful) and Nars blushes ( Orgasm & Gilda). They are very pigmented so need a good brush to handle them. 

My cute red bag it came in!


Something about Marilyn, just noticed the website is sold out of this 

Something about Marilyn Kabuki in Red, I wanted to get the Breakfast 
with Audrey in black but the red really got me! My blush brush, so soft, truly
in love!

Sephora Beauty Insider Chic Week



Did some major shopping at Sephora yesterday and today. I've been a beauty insider for about 3 years now and love getting the samples and points. Best of all these type of events! It's the only time you get a discount there.

I bought with a purpose, the weather! I do not plan on wearing foundation or power on my face on the crazy hot days in the next few months, but I still want to look natural with some color! Im focusing on my skin and especially around my eyes. 



 

I used the tinted moisturizer and the Tarte blush today and both still look fresh on my face! I used the Flowerbomb perfume and enjoyed the smell on me all day too!

Happy Friday!



Fridays are my favorite days, I take the day slow and appreciate the good things that come.

Aviators for me!


Sunglasses are worn throughout the year, especially during Spring and Summer. We all get tempted to buy new ones but its not the easiest thing to shop for. Lucky for me I found two new pairs that I love! I have a few sunglasses already that have been quite expensive in the last few years but this year I thought I would budget and found them.

Jessica Simpson Aviator Sunglasses. 



I love the purple tint to these and they are super light weight!
Also my look on a normal day I'm running errands, lipgloss, blush, 
headband, and my sunnies!


My new Armani Exchange Aviators. Picked these up at 
T.J. Maxx retails for $69.00 but got them for $19.99. I think someone 
was hiding them because I found it behind a pair of shoes nicely put.

These have the gold frame and tortoise tint to them.

April showers bring May flowers

I want to smell like a flower!


What's your favorite perfume?



The weather has been quite crazy these last few months, even going into this Spring. I'm hoping that it will soon start to feel more like the season we are in. Along with that my fragrances shopping begins for the season! Every season I want to feel and smell as if I am the season, haha! This Friday I'm finally going to pick up one or two to get started. Lately I've been visiting Ulta, Sephora, & Macy's to smell some and find that one special scent for me. These are the two I have narrowed them down too!

Flora Eau FraƮche By Gucci
Born of youthful elegance and subtle sensuality, Flora Eau Fraiche adds a bright, citrusy element to the Gucci fragrance family. The fragrance's mandarin top notes mingle with the piquant vibrancy of kumquat and bergamot fruit. In the heart notes, a transparent floralcy glimmers against an elegant base, one that blends an edgy peppery note with a warm touch of sandalwood.

Whats in it?Citrus Accords, Kumquat, Peony, Rose, Osmanthus, Pink Pepper, Sandalwood, Patchouli.





   
212 
A long-lasting, off beat, light floral fragrance with musk undertones. 212 personifies today's playfully hip, modern Cinderella. An exciting fragrance experience that wraps the wearer in an intriguing veil of femininity and confidence - live life in the moment.

Whats in it? Gardenia, Mandarin, Bergamot, Rosette, Camellia, White Lily, Satinwood, Sandalwood, Musk.



If you have come across these, tell me what you think! Or if your shopping and see it, try it!
Thanks everyone!

This Week!


My week I know already will be quite hectic, but I'm mentally prepared to face it. In the mean time my fruits will be my snack throughout the days and my coffee will start my mornings.

Everyone have a great week! Especially on Monday, it's always the hardest day, make the best of it.


A cup of fruit is always great, as long as my favorites are mixed!

I'm not the only one who needs it. ( This morning at work)
