Thirsty Thursday!

Hey everyone!!

Disclaimer: This post has nothing to do with alcoholic drinks, but it does have to do with a cold one! It's the new Valencia Orange Refresher from Starbucks that just recently got released! Between today and the 29th, refreshers are half off during the hours of 3 & 5 at your local Starbucks! My mom sent me on a trip to get her some iced coffee, so I took the liberty of trying one while I was there!

Pulled from my Instagram!
At first, this drink had an interesting flavor to me. I didn't really like it, but as the ice started to melt into the liquid, it definitely got a lot better! It has a sort of spicy feeling to it, while it doesn't have actually have any spiciness in it! I do enjoy it, but I probably won't be repurchasing this any time soon! I love my Venti Caramel Iced Coffee with Cream and Extra Classic far too much to switch to something I don't really like a whole lot!

I just wanted to share this post with you and to let you know about the deal going on at Starbucks! I love every time they have drinks on sale because they are overpriced for their specialty drinks, but it's a culture thing so we keep buying it!

Have any of you tried this drink? What's your favorite drink at Starbucks?!

See ya!

HAUL: Ulta!

Hey everyone!!

So, about a week ago I went to Ulta and picked up a few things that I have been eying for a while!


Pictured is a few dry shampoos from Batiste in the scents "Cherry" and "Blush." I have heard about this brand of dry shampoo from so many Youtube beauty gurus so I decided to finally pick it up, and it was BOGO 50! Also shown is a travel size of the Hawaiian Tropic After Sun lotion that Ingrid, or MissGlamorazzi on Youtube, has raved about and I wanted to try it now that it's summer time and I've been in the pool most days!




Lastly is a Stila palette that I randomly stumbled upon! I originally was looking for Stila's "Kitten" eyeshadow, but then I found this palette! It was $20 and has Kitten in it, along with 6 other shadow colors and a convertible lip/cheek color! It was a killer deal and I couldn't pass it up! I'm excited to try it out because I have never tried a Stila product before!

Have you guys picked up any new beauty products? Anything I need to try? Let me know!!

See ya!

Bath and Body Works Semi-Annual Sale!

Hey everyone!!

Yesterday was kind of a big shopping day for me because I got a few things from two stores, which is unusual for me! This post is going to be about what I got from Bath and Body Works from their Semi-Annual sale!

I originally went in looking for Market Peach candles, but they told me that in store they weren't half off, but online they were. So I got a big candle for $11 in the scent Ice Cream Shoppe. It smells delightful and I can't wait to burn it in my apartment. I also got a few items in the White Tea and Ginger scent for a friend because she's been busy all week and they were running low on it at the store. I found their wallflower buckets and was hoping for the Market Peach (can you tell that's my favorite scent yet?!) duo packs, but they didn't have them. Instead I got Winter Candy Apple and Peach Bellini, which both of these I have used in soap form.

As I was making my final round around the store, I spotted the $10 candles up in a front display, and they were all 50% off! I snatched up two Market Peach ones and I knew my shopping trip was a success! At the end of the trip, I managed to have a savings of $66 off of the original prices. Such a great trip!

Here's a picture for ya, minus the big candle I got! Oh and  I forgot to mention the Country Apple shower gel that I got for $3!

Did you guys hit the mall or your local Bath and Body Works up? Or a sister company of their's, Victoria Secret? Let me know! I'd love to hear what scents I need to try out from B&BW next time I go in!!

See ya!

Summer Nail Polishes!

Hey everyone!!

So, I have a slight addiction to buying nail polishes. I own so many that it's nearly impossible for me to wear them all before I end up buying newer ones. It's a problem, but I've finally narrowed down some of my absolute favorite polishes that are PERFECT for the summertime because they all look so great with a tan! I'm sure I'll end up with more summer favorites, but these are the ones I've been gravitating towards for the last month or so since I've been home from school & while on my vacation!!

From left to right: Essie "Ladylike"; Essie "Mint Candy Apple"; Essie "First Timer"; Sally Hansen "Pacific Blue"; Sally Hansen "Coral Reef"; and Zoya "Neely"!

So these are the colors I'm probably going to be wearing for most this summer (I actually have Mint Candy Apple on my nails right now!! :]) What are some of your favorite polishes for summer?! I'm hoping to acquire China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy soon!!

See ya!

May Ipsy Bag 2013!

Hey everyone!

So, I know I'm really late on getting this post up, but I was traveling for basically all of May and then I started my two summer classes this week and they've taken up a lot of my time with reading and studying, so I haven't had time to even OPEN my package until a few minutes ago.

So let's just get started!!

Here is everything that came in the bag! The theme for the month was Spring Fling, which was super cute, but not really appropriate anymore since it is almost summer now. This month was one of the first month's that a lot of the products in the bag were personalized based on what you answered in the quiz from when you first signed up!

This is a very sheer lipstick from Mirabella in the shade Posy! I'm not sure if there were other colors available for this product, but it swatted into a gorgeous magenta-pink. I don't normally wear lip products, so I'm not sure why I was sent this product over a hair product, but I guess I'll try to find a way to use this!

Next was a travel-sized concealer from Yaby in "honey." I swatched this on my hand since I haven't used it properly yet, and it blended really nicely and actually matched my skin tone on my hand. It looks really yellow in the picture, but I have light to medium skin with a yellow undertone from being Asian. So hopefully this will be a great concealer!

Next was a full-sized Zoya nail polish in the shade "Neely" which is a gorgeous almost mint green. It's a really perfect color for when you're skin starts to get tan because it's super bright. This is my first Zoya nail polish and I can't wait to try it because I've heard some great things about this brand!!

There were two other things that I just didn't take close up pictures of and they were a Pacifica roll-on perfume in Island Vanilla, which smelled like straight up bourbon and I am not a big fan of that smell, and a sample size of St. Tropez's one night tan lotion, which I'm excited to try out!

Well, before you know it, it'll be time for the June Ipsy bag, which, cross your fingers!, will be up in a timely matter! And don't worry, I have a few blog posts in the works right now for the near future! Thanks for sticking with me!!

Do you guys like subscription boxes? I love them!

See ya!

OH NO!!

Hey everyone!!

So, I know it's been a LONGGG time since I've posted, but I've been traveling a whole lot in the month of May so I didn't really have a lot of time to post like I thought I would originally! 

I started my summer classes today, so as soon as I can get back on my feet from being gone for so long and then going straight into some difficult courses, I will be posting regularly! Be on the look out for a comparison of some HYPED up mascaras! I've already bought then all and now I just need go get around go taking pictures!!

I recently got a new camera for my birthday, so once I figure out how to upload pictures to my MacBook, I will be ready to go!!

Thanks for baring with me during my unofficial hiatus! I'll be back strong soon!!

See ya!
