Hello Beauties!

It has been awhile since I went shopping for beauty products on items that I just want to try out. I have been limiting myself on shopping because I have so many products that I need to go through in my beauty collection already. But… there were some pretty good deals so I couldn’t resist!

Target

WOW Butter Toffee Gluten Free Cookies – Probably the softest cookie you will ever have. It almost crumbles when you touch it. Although it is nice and soft but because of the Gluten free factor it tastes more on the cookie dough side than a baked cookie.

Yes To Grapefruit Facial Scrub – Needed a new facial scrub and sine I have NEVER tried anything from the Yes To line, I thought I’ll give it a go.

Aveeno Hydrate + Protect SPF30 – This is not new on this blog. I love it for the summer because its essentially a lotion with SPF that doesn’t stink!

Mossimo V-Neck Tee – My ABSOLUTE ALL TIME FAVE V-neck 😀 ❤ It!

Maybelline Pumped Up Colossal Volume Express Mascara – New to try!

Maybelline Age Rewind Dark Circle Eraser – My current under eye concealer is running low so I thought I’ll revert back to what has been tried and true.

Physicians Formula Youthful Wear Foundation – Saw a review on this and they said that its their ALL TIME fave foundation that is really underrated by the blogging community. If its a light weight foundation, I gotta try it!

Carlton & Sephora

I was not planning on repurchasing Moroccan Oil anytime soon because it is quite pricy. BUT since there was a giant sign in front of Carlton’s when I walked by that said 30% off ALL Moroccan Oil products, I caved. I caved hard. I left the store in less than 10 minute $60 less in my pocket.

To equal things out, I had my target set on this Too Face Better than Sex mascara and walked in and out of Sephora with just this. Proud? Yes. Since there was so much hype around this mascara in March I had to try it out for myself to see if it really is THAT good. I have used it once since and for my first impression I can see why so many people like it. For a first impression I do like the volume and length it gives me but unfortunately it does not hold my curls (damn asian lashes!).

Sorry that this post was delayed! I had a crazy crazy weekend to meet some deadlines and lets just say that I was operating in zombie mode.

Until Next Time,
❤ Jess

 

 

March Love ’15

Hello!

March literally flew by. I have no idea where it went because I have already lost track of the days even before halfway through. Here is my March favorites!

Target Round Blending Brush – This is probably the best blending, crease, AND outer corner brush. The size is perfect even for me with a smaller crease area. This is super soft and doesn’t shed when washing. The best part, its affordable!

Ren Omega 3 Optimum Skin Serum oil – Adding a pea size amount into my morning skincare routine has added that extra moisture my skin needed to prevent my face makeup looking cakey. Face oils has seriously changed my life!

Lush Ro’s Argan Body Conditioner – Lotion for lazy people. Apply it in the shower and when you get out your skin is left moisturized so you wont need to spend extra time after you get out to apply it. An added bonus would be how amazing this smells. Its the perfect rosey scent thats not overpowering.

Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye – Aside from this being a nice and fresh eye cream thats sinks into the skin without it being sticky, this is also a very nice base for under eye makeup. Like the rest of my skin, my under eye area has started to look cakey but an added boost of moisture fixed it. Unlike some other eye cream, this won’t cause products that you apply on top of it to slip and slide.

Crochet – I am not a grandma but I kind of feel like one. The art of crocheting is actually therapeutic and fun. I have been experimenting with different looks and feel by using materials besides yarn.

Trader Joes Salted Caramel Milk Chocolate Butter Cookies – Sweet sweet deliciously caramely goodness.

Clash of Clans – Heh… Heh… Heh… The addiction with another game has begun. The worse part is.. I have friends that feud this addiction. You build your base strategically to protect yourself and also raise an army to attack others. Let the wars begin!

 

DId your march fly by as quick as mine?

Until next time,
❤ Jess

Good afternoon!

I just couldn’t wait to wear some of the pieces I recently picked up from H&M so here is the gray jersey with sheer arm panels. 



The weather has been super nice in SoCal so it was warm enough to wear shorts but a light sweater is needed as well because temperature can drop quite a bit when the sun goes down.

Target – Fashion Haul

I absolutely LOVE Target. Target > Walmart ANYDAY. I don’t generally buy anything from their fashion department thought. Except their V-Necks which are my FAVE. So on my last trip to Target, I’ve come out surprisingly with a couple items from Target that I thought were SUPER cute and Very affordable.

Long Sleeve Heart Sweater

I have fallen in love with pullover sweater this past winter and I’m pretty sure I’m going to continue it this coming fall/winter season. This sweater is quite soft and doesn’t feel like its super cheap quality. Its thick enough to keep me warm but thin enough to be used as a layering piece without it looking too bulky. $22.99 http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-supply-co-juniors-long-sleeve-heart-sweater-cream/-/A-14560274

 V Neck Tee

I own probably about 8 of these. Of course not the same color. These are by far my favorite V Necks ever. They are soft, washes well, doesn’t get washed out of shape like Forever 21 does. It has a cute little front pocket that adds a little something to the tee so its not just a plain V Neck. Fits very nicely. Not too tight and not too loose. Extremely comfortable and for the regular price of $9.00 you really can’t beat it. And right now its on sale for $5.00! YES! I got two staple colors, Black and White because I don’t have these colors! Target releases the colors by season so you might see a color now, but in a couple of months they won’t carry them anymore! http://www.target.com/p/mossimo-supply-co-juniors-v-neck-tee-assorted-colors/-/A-11751648#prodSlot=medium_1_5&term=tee

Khalea Combat Boots – Cognac

This is probably the most Exciting purchase of the bunch. I have been wanting the Steve Madden Troopa boots in Brown Leather (picture below). I was so close to buying it last season but decided that I will wait and see if I see anything else I like. If I can’t then I was definitely getting it this coming season. Also I was hoping that it will go on sale since it retails for $99.00. Not bad, but I mean, who doesn’t want to buy things at a discount? I have tried on so many different bran

ds that have shoes that are similar in

Image

style but they all fit sort of weird and look a bit wide, none were the perfect fit. Until… TADA! I found these perfect fitting shoes at Target 15min before the store was closing. Saw them, Tried them, LOVED them. They actually fit even better than the Steve Madden ones so instantly it went into myshopping cart. Best part? Its on sale right now for $28.00
