Happy New Year!


A lot happened to me during the last few months of last year. I moved, I didn't blog, I was feeling down about myself, and I got a job. Even though I uploaded blog posts, it wasn't my usual ones. For some reason I just didn't feel like blogging or had the passion to. At first I didn't know why, but then I figured it out; I wasn't completely being myself. This blog is 100% me, but I pick and choose want I want to talk about. Although I will not talk about certain things like family, I will start to be more open. Sometimes I'm worried that I may not be cool like other bloggers. But I've decided that it's time to stop worrying and just have fun with blogging. So starting now that is what I intend to do. I don't just want to limit my blog; I want to expand.

Soon I will be going into my 4th year of blogging and it seems like just yesterday I started. Although, I still have months to go till then. I want who ever reads my blog to feel like their talking to a friend. I want people to feel comfortable reading my blog. I don't want this to feel forced. I honestly love blogging and I could blog everyday. But sometimes not knowing whether someone would read my blog, has held me back. As of now that is going to change. I won't know until I try, right? I guess you can I'm taking my blog to the next level. I am not the most organized blogger, but it works for me. I've had a lot of great opportunities happen for me last year. I am so grateful.

I want to wish all of you a Happy New Year and I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. If you're a dreamer like me, this is your year to be great and to do what makes you happy!

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

  At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means.  During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no one was r

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I ha
