Thank you to Cameron’s Coffee for sponsoring today’s post and inspiring me to #CrushtheCups!

One of my best splurges is a fabulous cup of coffee. There are so many options to choose from these days…but since I bought a single-serve coffee machine it has been my go-to. I mean…even when I’m zombie-ish in the morning I can still push a button! If you love the idea of “quick” but you aren’t a fan of a plastic taste or adding more waste to our environment…well Cameron’s Coffee will be your new favorite! [Read more…]

December 18, 2014 By StephanieLouise 230046 Comments2014-12-18+02%3A49%3A02StephanieLouise

Ever had a collection scream your name? I feel like KBShimmer really had my number for this winter/holiday season. They somehow made every shade I have perfection…I suspect they employ hard-working elves.

PR Sample.

Some of these shades are past favorites while some are brand new. Since I didn’t have any of the throwback shades, I wanted to add them to this post! I only have 6 of the 17 shades from the KBShimmer Winter 2014 Collection to show you right now but hopefully there will be more KBShimmer goodness in the near future for me because these were all fantastic!

Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash Duos Swatches & Review

December 17, 2014 By StephanieLouise 227543 Comments2014-12-17+01%3A41%3A44StephanieLouise

This post is somewhat embarrassing because it shows my complete lack of control when I really like something. Seriously I just buy almost an entire line…proof in this post as I currently own 8 out of 10. & it is killing me not to make it 10 out of 10. I have a problem.

I bought it. Affiliate links.

The Revlon PhotoReady Eye Art Lid + Line + Lash Duos come in 10 shades like I said above & each product is double-ended. Each duo comes with a cream eyeshadow on one side & a glitter on the other. The two colors I don’t have are Fuchsia Flash which is a very pale pink & fuchsia glitter & the other shade is Burnished Bling which I fully intend to pick up when I finally find it in stock! I posted a sneak peak of these on my Instagram here which is a good place to follow me for sneak peeks & deals I find! [Read more…]

ORLY Mirrorball & Bling Holo Polishes & Houndstooth Decals

December 15, 2014 By StephanieLouise 226242 Comments2014-12-15+22%3A53%3A44StephanieLouise

Is there anything more spectacular than a gorgeous holo mani? I mean seriously- I would holo everything in my life if I could. I also have some of my first Born Pretty items to show you for nails which I’m quite excited about! Tis the season where less isn’t more- more is definitely MORE!

PR Sample. I bought it. Affiliate links.

Silver & gold are beautiful year-round but they just scream holidays don’t they? Toss in some holo & these super easy nail decals & you have something even more fun. Please excuse the dryness on my hands though- I have a huge cut on the back of my finger & anything lotion & acetone related makes me want to scream. In some cases I do a bit which terrifies the dogs. [Read more…]

Thank you to Boden for sponsoring today’s post. All opinions expressed are 100% mine.

First let me break out the BLING! I want to show off he texture they are rocking on multiple accessories available right now because I absolutely love the items I have. The glitter is so sparkling, has hints of other shades, & is a perfect addition to a winter outfit. Accessories totally change up an outfit & this textured glitter is so hot! [Read more…]

December 9, 2014 By StephanieLouise 222718 Comments2014-12-09+17%3A27%3A05StephanieLouise

In anticipation of travel, I’ve been trying to sift through new & standby products for more compact face options. I recently made a huge Sleek order & picked up a lot of palettes…including the one I want to chat about today!

I bought it. Affiliate links.

One of the items I most wanted to try was the Sleek Face Form Contouring & Blush Palette in Light. I had seen someone say that the shade “Fair” had a blush that barely showed up so “Light” was the next option for my pale skin. [Read more…]

December 6, 2014 By StephanieLouise 221232 Comments2014-12-06+00%3A16%3A59StephanieLouise

November was a pretty exciting month for me I must admit. We found out we finally get to move onto our next base- & it was one we wanted! I’m prepping to travel to California in January for both IMATS & quality family time. It has been bitterly cold but lacking snow- less work for us! I’ve also come upon some awesome new products, some older favorites, & just lots of beauty finds all around.

I bought it. PR sample. Affiliate links.

I’m a big fan of changing up my look which can be seen all over the blog. I tend to bounce from rainbow eyes to neutral & back again. Everything is pretty so why not give it a shot right? With the recent 20% off beauty sales & such I’ve also picked up some new items. & there are way more I haven’t even shared on the blog yet- so that is something to look forward to! Besides the lip colors, I wouldn’t say these items scream fall which is fine with me. [Read more…]
