February Favorites!

IT'S ABOUT TIME I WRITE A BLOG POST!
So here are my February Favorites! :)

---------
My best friend Kaylyn got me this for Christmas after I told her I was looking for a lip scrub.  I use this almost every night and it works wonders on my lips.  I somehow seem to always have chapped lips (no matter what the season) and this is helping immensely since it is the winter and my lips are chapped everyday.  The smell is heavenly and the sugary scrub tastes good too!

All of my everyday make-up necessities
ALL OF THESE PRODUCTS ARE AMAZING.  The Naked Palette is the best eyeshadow palette I have ever used, hands down.  The colors are super pigmented, and every color is exactly as it appears.  Although I received this as a gift (shoutout again to Kaylyn), I would definitely pay the $50 for this palette. I love my BB cream because I hate liquid foundation, and it really helps even my tone.  Both of these mascaras are vital to my make-up routine and I would suggest them to anyone.  The Urban Decay Primer Potion is the key to my eyeshadow and I use it everyday.  I reduces creasing and really helps the shadow stay in place.  The Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliner (in Zero) is my go to eyeliner now.  It is the best eyeliner I have ever used and I will probably never buy another one!

This toner really refreshes my face after I wash it, and keeps it from getting dry.  I also really love this new bottle I just got from Sephora.  All you do is put the cotton pad on the top and press down to get the toner onto the pad.  I have been looking for one of these and finally found one yesterday at Sephora!

Thank the Lord I was blessed with skin that doesn't get a lot of acne.  Besides that, I obviously still wash my face, but I do not need a super strong face wash to fight acne.  This cleanser is light but still washes away make-up, dirt, and just cleans my face in general.

This is my favorite moisturizer that I have ever used.  It does not leave my face greasy, but replenishes its moisture.  I also use the It's Potent eye cream because it reduces my under eye bags!

These are my three go-to perfumes for everyday! Love them!

All of my jewelry!

I use all these products whenever I style my hair/get out of the shower.  They help my hair to be less frizzy and to have more volume!

These iPhone 4 cases! (Vera Bradley, Minnie Mouse, and Otterbox)

My sister Julie got me the Grip & Tip for Christmas, and I have not painted my nails without it since.  It seriously is so helpful (especially when painting your nails with your bad hand), and is a lot easier to use than trying to hold the bottle of polish, or stop and set it down.  I just bought the Sprinkles nail polish last night at Sephora, but I am already in love with it.  I put it on tonight and it definitely reminds me of those pink frosted animal crackers!  So cute!

This is the best self-tanner I have every used.  It is a very brown-based self tanner that does its job, and it does it quick. You can see results in only a few hours and I don't think it smells that bad either!  It's a little bit expensive, but I believe that it is worth the money!

My every night hand care routine!
These two products have made my hands and cuticles so much softer (and not as dry)!  I normally always have super dry hands and very dry cuticles with many hang nails.  This combo has put a stop to all of those things and I now use this every night right before I go to bed!

This little guy is a lifesaver.  It holds my iPhone cord on the side of my nightstand so that I do not have to reach to the floor to plug in my phone!  Definitely recommend buying a pack of these even though they are $10!

Everything on my desk!

My iPad Mini.

My Planner, homework notebook, and sticky notes.

Basically I could list on here everything that I use on a daily basis, but I already thought the list was somewhat long - so I cut it off here!

Much love,
Jen

It's been too long...

HERE IS MY APOLOGY.

I am so sorry I have been gone for... hmm,  probably about two months now.

Class and work have taken over my life.  I started a new job (in the same office) this semester, so that, along with my grueling homework schedule, is keeping me more busy than I'd like to be.

I am going to try to keep blogging this semester, but the posts will be scarce.

Come summer time - I will be able to blog a ton - and I will.

Much love,
Jen
