March's Monthly Favs

I can seriously not believe how fast this month has gone by! March has been a busy and fun month with birthdays and mud runs and finally some rainy days! 

I don't have too many new favs this month but the ones i do have are pretty amazing

John frieda lightning spray this has been giving my hair some extra blonde and it reminds me of being in high school and girls using "sun-in" for their hair 

Jergens bb body cream  i love the way this makes my skin feel and it smells yummy 

Hourglass ambiant lighting powder  .. thats all i need to say! ... i finally bit the bullet and bought one of these and i love the way it makes my skin look it sets my makeup perfectly and doesn't leave a white overcast. simply perfect!

benefit big easy i have been loving this for fast on the go makeup 

formula x nail polish in radical this is the perfect color for spring

the balm cindy-lou manizer this is such a gorgeous rose gold highlighter .

I obviously love my Lorac pro palette and you can tell which ones i love the most but this month i have been using the brown colors  i have been putting taupe all over the lid and blending it into the crease and then assign a touch of sable to smoke it out and espresso as my liner.

KINSLEY'S FAVORITES: 

This girl is growing so fast i can't believe she is almost 6 months old already! 

She has been loving just rolling around on the floor and playing ( chewing) on her toys she will roll all the way across the room its so funny to see.

 Sophie has been her favorite chew toy this month along with her toes ..

She loooves to eat bananas and pears i think she is defiantly going to get her momma's sweet tooth 

Finally big enough to play in her jumoeroo ..kinda  we usually have a pillow under her feet to help her but she loves playing with all the toys and music we actually ended up buying another one to bring to great grandmas house.

I can't wait to see what April brings and all the fun stuff Kins will learn.

until next month,

The Big Easy

Benefit recently came out with a new "bb cream" so of course I had to try it out . It says it's a multi-balancing complexion perfector that has a liquid to powder finish that balances moisture & controls oil which is great for my oily skin. 

I have been using this every day since i got it a week ago and have fallen in love it has the perfect coverage that's light weight and i can see using this all summer long when its hot and i don't want to be wearing a full coverage foundation or the days i just don't have a lot of time to get ready i can just put this on and still look somewhat presentable.

Benefit says to use with fingers but i have been using a round top kabuki brush from CROWN BURSHES and it seems to do the job great. When i bought it at Ulta I was color matched and was told that the lightest shade was my color and it did look pretty good but i went with the second shade in 02 light and it blends perfectly with my skin, The packaging  does say that the formula self adjusts to your skin for an exact shade...and the best part is its SPF 35!  I applied this at 10:00 am and didn't need to use a powder to cover it because it is a liquid to powder finish it wasn't untill 1:30 pm that my cheeks were a little oily but not bad and at 3:00 I could see a little more in my "T" zone but overall I love this .

I have tried plenty of other "BB creams" out there on the market and this one by far takes the cake for the best one i have tried it will def get a repurchase and become a major staple in my make up drawer
