January Boxycharm




It's time again to share another monthly Boxycharm box! I can never say too many times just how amazing of a value these boxes are. You get full sized products NOT sample sizes like other subscription boxes. This month the theme was the Hollywood glitz and glam of award season. 
My two favorite items from this month's box is the PUR cosmetics bronzer, a radiant bronze shade that doesn't have any glitter in it but gives such a healthy glow. The other item of course is the the highlight palette! We received a highlighter from this brand in the past and it was stunning. This set is equally as fabulous.

best of beauty 2016




I wasn't sure if I really wanted to film a best of beauty for 2016, I felt like you could tell what I loved through my monthly favorites videos but then I realized I really didn't film that many and a lot of the products that I loved during the year would be missed. This year I feel like I focused on my skincare routine and not just trying out a bunch of products just to try them but to find products that really work for my skin and stick with them. I also found a whole slew of new make up products that will be forever staples in my beauty cabinet.

January Julep Maven





Future Fresh

The past few months I have skipped over the Julep Maven Box for one reason or another but call it a happy accident or call it fate I totally forgot to skip the January box. I am so glad I did. 

This month Julep released a new beauty oil and I was ecstatic to see that it was Rosehip Oil! I have been using Rosehip Oil for a couple of years now and thoroughly enjoy the stuff. Julep's Rosehip Oil is meant to be a light weight oil making it wearable day and night. This oil claims to help balance and hydrate skin, along with helping to reduce the appearance of scars and hyperpigmentation. Julep suggests using it a few different ways, besides the normal layer on clean skin method they say adding it to your regular moisturizer or liquid foundation will give your skin a boost of hydration and radiance.

As for the nail shades that were released this month I was equally happy with the range as I was with the oil. This month saw moody dark colors with a sheer holographic top coat to amp things up when you are starting to feel a little drab.  The two shades I received were. I quite frankly can't wait to pop them on my nails. You can go to the Julep blog if you want some nailspiration, they have all kinds of nail art tutorials.

Winter Box of Style



The Winter Box of Style just arrived and I was so pleased with the contents! The RZ Box of Style Subscription box is a favorite of mine because you get such a great mix of beauty, fashion and life style products. They are always packed with high end products that are such a treat to receive in the mail. This time I was really blown away with the selection, I think I popped this necklace from Dylanlex on the day it came in and even wore it out on New Years Eve. The second product I couldn't wait to try out was the Sunday Riley Tidal Cream. Sunday Riley is a great skincare brand and I have been a fan of their Luna Sleeping Oil for a while and have had my eye on trying this cream since it first debuted.

A New Year & GRWM for New Years Eve





I can not believe that it is already a New Year! I hate to sound so typical but seriously where does the year go, the older I get the faster the years go by. I am glad to be back on the blog and a huge goal for me this year is to start posting more frequent again. I plan on re-vamping my site so keep an eye out for that. 2016 was a busy and fun year spent with friends and family so naturally I spent the last day of the year the same way.

Get ready with me for a New Years Eve spent with friends!
