Oh my gosh. So to start off with, summer is finally here and I can post all the time! 
Yayy, who knows, maybe I’ll even have a video coming your way soon. Check back!
So anyway, my friend and I went to the mall this weekend to kick of summer. And of course, we had to go to Lush. Now if you don’t know what Lush is, it’s basically the best place in the world. They sell handmade cosmetics, mainly soap, bath bombs, and other things for your body and hair. They also have lip balm and perfume. When you walk into the store, or even walk near it, you just smell the most amazing scents in the world. I’m not even exaggerating, haha.
While I was there, I picked up one bath bomb and one bath melt. The bath melt was the “You’ve Been Mangoed!” one. The smell is so incredible, I can’t even begin to describe it to you. It has a very strong citrus smell, and I love it! You can feel the moisurizing effects even when just picking it up. I haven’t had a chance to use this bath melt yet, and this will be my first one! I’m really excited to use it, and I’ll probably cut it into a thirds or so.
The bath melt is made with Mango Butter to moisturize your skin, and Lemongrass oil which is an “antiseptic, deodorant, and toning. In aromatherapy, it is used as an antidepressant and mood lifting oil, as well as for problem skin.”
The bath bomb that I got was an avocado bath bomb. Whenever I use anything avocado on my skin, it seems to just make everything better. This bath bomb is seriously GIANT, which is why I’m looking forward to use it. I was reading the reviews, and apparently this bomb is very moisturizing, even more so than Butterball! Wow, that would be amazing. This bomb also has the lemongrass oil in it, and obviously avocados.
I think I’ll use the bath melt first, just because I live in a very hot environment, especially during the summer months. Bath melts are designed to melt at room temperature, so I’m afraid it’s going to liquify on me! I’ll let you guys know my thoughts when I get out of the bath.
Love always,
Claireee.
Have a great summer!
I used to use Neutrogena’s eye makeup remover pads, until I found this. This product comes packaged in an adorable little bottle, and is super gentle. With other liquid makeup removers, you can visibly see the oil, water, and overall grease separating inside the bottle, which I think is so gross. But with this formula, there’s none of that whatsoever which eliminates the greasy feeling at the end. This product is only 5 to 6 dollars. It’s fantastic. It also completely removes my makeup, including waterproof mascara. I am a contact lens wearer, and this has proved to be just fine. There’s no stinging, and, just like the description says, it truly does leave your eyes feeling refreshed. This is the best eye makeup remover I have used. Ever.
time. I went to Target, and I settled on the Revlon ColorStay foundation which was about $10. (I saw it at Wal-Mart the next day for about $9). Anyways, as an overall product I like it. However, it does have it’s pros and cons. Oh, and my shade is 220 Natural Beige in case you were wondering.
on you can really feel the mask pulling the impurities out of your pores. It’s really quick too. It’s just an avocado mask. It’s bright green and goes on like a lotion. Then you just let it dry. I brushed my teeth while it was drying for two minutes. Then you wash it off with warm water. It’s not hard to wash off either! Ahh, I love it. My face feels so smooth, soft, tight, and just great. This product was only three dollars and I totally recommend it! 
Product number two! Natural Bronzer by Rimmel London. I really wanted a new matte bronzer with absolutely no sparkles. This might have a SLIGHT tint of shine, but barely at all. At $4, it’s perfect! The wrapping reads “Natural Bronzer with minerals. Gives face a sunkissed glow. Dermatologically tested.” The shade I got is 022 Sun Bronze. If you order online and want the matte, get this shade. Otherwise, go to an actual store because some shades are VERY glittery. Like over the top glitter, haha. I also bought this from Wal-Mart. Gotta love Wal-Mart. 
Lucky number 3! The third item is an angled blush brush that I’ve been wanting for a while. It was only $5! I believe the brand is Paris Presents. It’s not really clearly stated on the packaging. The bristles are SO soft, I can’t even explain how amazing they are through my computer. It’s also a full size brush, not travel! $5 for excellent quality! “High-definition is the latest technology in color cosmetics, developed for glamorous, picture-perfect results. This brush, with its tapered cut and quality design, works perfectly to give you that celebrity look every day.” So excited! Another Wal-Mart purchase.
Annnd fourth! Mac Strobe Liquid! I’ve been wanting this forever. Yes, it is a little bit on the more expensive side, but it’s Mac, you’ve got to expect that, haha. It’s so beautiful! I mix it with my every day foundation and it gives a beautiful glow. I have dry skin, and it doubles as a moisturizer which is amazing. I’ve never used the cream before, but the liquid is perfectly light and easy to blend, and doesn’t feel heavy whatsoever. I definitely recommend it! “Blending soft-focus diffusers with iridescent pigments, this ultra-fluid strobe formula produces a soft, radiant light on the skin, reducing the appearance of skin imperfections by providing a natural-looking glow. Refreshing. Spreads on smoothly and absorbs quickly. Leaves the skin looking healthier and more radiant.”
Sixth! Elf makeup setting spray. I’m in love. My mom gave this to me for Easter, and it’s amazing. As most of you know, I’m a huge fan of Elf makeup. Everything is pretty much $5 and under! I wanted the Skindinavia setting spray for a long time, but this works almost as well! Even though it may not be the absolute high-end best, it still works great and gets the job done. By eyeshadow stays on ALL day, and I’ve also noticed an improvement in the long-wear of my makeup. You just spray it about a foot from your face 2-3 times after your makeup is on. Such a great product! It’s $3. I purchased this at Target, and the only Elf website that carried it that I could find was the UK one. But I definitely suggest that you get this at your local Target or other store that carries Elf.
sciencee. And then we watched a video and answered questions about it. We all had to make our own periodic tables, and my teacher is getting them laminated today. And we have to give an oral presentation on an element. My element is sodium. And I’m presenting December 3rd. Yay! After Thanksgiving break. (: Wish me luck! Or break a leg as we say in theater. (:
