Thanksgiving ♡

Good evening everyone! I hope you're all doing well. My family had a little Thanksgiving "get-together" yesterday, which was pretty nice. I am aware that plenty of people don't celebrate Thanksgiving or believe that it's a dumb thing to celebrate since "you take one day out of the year to be thankful for everything", but it's typically one of the only times I see my family out of town so I'm certainly thankful for that. Thanksgiving also gives me time to relax and appreciate those around me, rather than living through another hectic day.
ANYWAYS!!

My family came down, and we had our dinner and everything, then my little cousin wanted to go Black Friday shopping, which is literally HELL. I'm sorry for those of you who have to work through it, and I hope no one was too rude or obnoxious! I didn't buy anything, I just looked around to people watch, oops...But no, I didn't buy anything and I didn't really need to.

Sorry this post is so short! I'll have some other stuff up soon!

Daily Hair Care ♡

Let's start with shampoo! I've posted about this in my october favorites, and I still love it! 

This product definitely gives my hair volume, and makes it feel super clean. The smell of this is also so lovely! It reminds me of the ocean!

After that, I use conditioner! One of my favorite ones to use is the cherry blossom one from the organix line. It smells SO good, and my hair smells good all day. I don't like that it doesn't keep my hair completely soft and moisturized though. It's mostly the smell that drew me in! I bought this at walmart.

After I'm out of the bath or shower, I spray my hair with this stuff! It makes my hair much more manageable, and smooth. This product it is a bit pricey though, and I'm running out of it. I don't believe I'll be repurchasing this because it's pretty pricey and I feel that you can protect and keep your hair smooth with other products. I bought it at target, just in case you guys wanted to look into it! 

If I'm not lazy, I'll put this Garnier Moroccan oil on the ends of my hair. This product has helped smooth out my hair, and definitely prevents my hair from becoming too frizzy. I bought this at target as well! 

If I end up being too lazy out of the shower, I use this  Moroccan argan oil spray! I also use this sometimes before I straighten my hair. This helps keep my hair smooth and pretty soft! I bought this at target.

And finally, if I'm too lazy or don't know what to do with my hair, I put my hair in a high ponytail and spray this into my hair! It puts texture into my hair, and gives it little beach waves. I also bought this at target! 

I hope you guys enjoyed this post, and you're looking forward to the holidays! I'm going to try to do "blogmas", which means a post everyday during December! ^^ I was tagged by April to do this, and I tag you guys as well!

♡ Drugstore Makeup ♡

Good evening everyone! In this post, I'll be talking about makeup products I've used and liked, from drugstores! I find that often times there are products that drugstores sell, that are pretty close to the quality of high end makeup brands.

POWDER

The "Stay Matte" powder I use to set my foundation is amazing! It really does help prevent oiliness throughout the day, especially if you don't mind doing touch ups. Although the product is good, the packaging isn't my favorite, because you have to twist the lid on and off. I used to think that would make the product break or something, but I haven't had that problem when traveling! It's just annoying.

EYEBROWS

One product I've repurchased quite a few times, is ELF's eyebrow kit. It's only about 3 dollars, and the product is pretty nice. It comes with a mini brush which I don't really use, because a different angled brush seems to work a little more efficiently. Unfortunately, I've only been able to purchase the color "medium". You can order a different color on their site though!

EYELINER

I've been using this eyeliner for a year or two now, and I love it! It stays on all day, and typically my eyelids are pretty oily, but this doesn't smudge at all! It's pretty cheap too. I haven't been able to find it at target or walmart, but I found it at walgreens! It's called wet n' wild mega liner, and it's liquid. 

MASCARA 

Most of the time, I don't normally wear a bunch of makeup to school, but I do wear mascara! I've purchased this mascara multiple times. It doesn't get clumpy, and it makes my lashes voluminous! I don't typically buy high-end mascara, so I buy this a lot! This is the falsies by maybelline! 

BLUSH

This product seems to be a little bit more expensive than other brands of drugstore products, but this is a good one. It's physicians formula, which you can usually find in target. The packaging is really cute, and the blush leaves a shimmer, but it isn't overbearing. I usually buy this in the color "natural", but they have others to look at as well!

LIPSTICK

I have WAY too many drugstore and high-end lipsticks, but one I've been using pretty often this fall is "Bordeaux" by Rimmel, or 124. The photo doesn't do it justice, but it's a deep red-berry color. It doesn't dry your lips out, and it doesn't feather either. It lasts pretty long, but when you eat and drink then the color will wear off. But in all, it's a really nice lipstick! 

That's all for this post! ^-^ What are your favorite drugstore products?! 

p.s. I plan on making a post with all of my favorite lipsticks soon! Keep your eye out!

October Favorites!

           Hello everyone! It's November now, so I wanted to make an October Favorites post! Most of these will be beauty related. Hope you enjoy!!

I bought this from Lush a long time ago, but there's plenty of product left! I stopped using Proactive for a spot treatment, and switched over to this. I put it on before I go to sleep, and my acne clears up quickly! I'll definitely repurchase this when it's out.

I purchased this from Target! It smells like caramel (so yummy), but it doesn't taste like anything. I don't mind that it comes in a pan, since I clean my hands. I still love the EOS lip balm, but this stuff works so much better in my opinion. There are other flavors as well!

I purchased this from stay cute, and I love it! It keeps me nice and warm, and I love the pink color! It's perfect for the chilly fall days, and I'm definitely going to use it in the winter. I got it maybe 2 or 3 days after I ordered it, so the shipping seems pretty good. There are other colors and products that are cute, so check them out! 

I bought this product from Bath and Body works when I was with a friend, and I'm so glad I did! A long time ago, I bought a sugar scrub from BBW and I didn't like it too much. But this scrub leaves my skin smooth and moisturized afterward! Not to mention, the sweet cinnamon pumpkin scent is one of my favorite scents in the fall! 

I was hesitant to purchase this because of the price, but since I ordered it from the UK website with a few other things, it was cheaper than usual! A blogger I love posted a how to, which you can find here. Anyways, this shampoo has ocean salt and other natural stuff in it, which makes my hair voluminous, but doesn't dry it out. It also smells so nice! You don't have to use a lot of product to create a lather either, so the product lasts longer!

A youtuber I love talked about this product in one of her videos, so I went to Ulta and tried it out, and this has become a favorite scent of mine! This was about 30 dollars I believe. I love how nice this smells! It smells sugary, and like a baked good. I also think the name is super cute. 

And finally, this has been my favorite thing to drink throughout October! These little packets are pretty good, but it only makes a little bit to drink. I definitely love the PSL at Starbucks! It's my favorite drink from Starbucks, other than the caramel macchiato and the caramel brulee latte! 

I hope you guys had a fun October! Have you tried anything I posted? :3
