August Monthly Favorites

Hey Guys!! Can you believe September is here already?? Where did the summer go? Well, its 94 degrees today so it is still trying to hold on. I usually do videos for my monthly favorites but my poor laptop is still in the shop and I'm hoping it can be up and running soon. So since I'm on borrowed computers, it will be a regular post. I didn't have too many favorites last month but I really loved these items and used them the whole month.


Jesse's Girl Cosmetics Eye Shadow Primer- I got this at IMATS and this paired with my MAC paint pot works wonders. My shadows don't move or crease and stay all day.

Jesse's Girl Cosmetics Pure Pigment Eye Dust in Flambe, Cafe Au Lait and Peek-A-Boo- I will be doing a more in depth post and review on the Jesse's Girl items I got from IMATS but I'm in love this these pigments. They are so pigmented and I love the container it comes in. It makes it impossible not to spill the whole container. Plus, they are so affordable. These are on my list for repurchase at IMATS next year lol!

Jesse's Girl Cosmetics Liquid Eyeliner- I watch a lot of Julie G on You Tube and she uses this eyeliner in almost every tutorial she does. I finally got around to using this and I love this eyeliner!! Once you apply it, it does not go anywhere until you wash your face. It stays pigmented all day and the color does not fade. The felt tip pen also makes it so easy to apply, it's great for beginners.

Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara- I did a full review on this and other Smashbox items last month. This mascara has become a new favorite on mine. I love how it defines my lashes and makes them look so long and full. I have two sample size ones to use up before repurchasing the full size.

So that is it for my August Monthly Favorites. What were your favorites last month? Have you tried any of my favorites before? Comment below and let me know.

~**Drea Notes**~

Had an amazing weekend with friends with swimming all day, a cookout and seeing fireworks! It was just a great time.

So sad I didn't get any Funnel Cake or Cotton Candy this weekend. 

I'm confused on why the Pumpkin Spice Latte is out so early!! I'm not ready for Fall drinks until it's actually Fall and cool out lol!!

I'm ready for some football!! Go EAGLES!!

Sometimes its hard.....

You know when you keep thinking of something and you just feel like you have to get it out? That was me before sitting down to write this post. I had something else planned to write but I kept thinking...sometimes its hard and it just evolved from there. We all heard the sayings, life isn't fair, life is hard and so on. Sometimes life can be hard but we don't experience it for long. There are so many things that I want to do but I know I can't do a million things at once. I can't just pick and go anymore, I'm someone's parent now. There are times I want to but I know things have to be planned out now. I will get to those place I want to go, just have to be patient and plan it out. It seems like we focus so much on what is hard about life that we forget about the easy stuff. We forget sometimes about all the good things that happen and to be grateful for getting through those rough patches. You may not like your living situation but you have a roof over ...

On a personal note....Update on Blogging and Personal Goals

Happy Football Sunday!! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend and getting ready to celebrate Thanksgiving!! I can't believe it is this week! I can't wait to spend time with family! I thought about giving an update to the personal and blogging goals I set for myself last year with the Resolute Beauty Blogger series. You can check out my results post  HERE!!  I completed this in May of this year so let's see how I've been doing since then. Blogging Goals 1. Attend A Blogging Event- Since then I have not attended another event. I was so happy when I did find my one event to attend. I have been keeping in contact with those bloggers I met and reading their blogs. I have been finding events but there are scheduling conflicts. I hope to find another one very soon. 2. Set A Blogging Schedule- I am still sticking to my Sunday, Thursday and every other Friday schedule. It has been really working with my hectic schedule I already have. 3. Change Up Current Style-...

No Buy is Officially Over!!

Yay!! I survived 2 months without a single makeup purchase!! I am so proud of myself and knew I had the will power to do it!! It really helped me staying out of Sephora, Ulta and Mac, the usual places that get me in trouble lol! When I went into Target or Walmart, I wouldn't even go near the makeup section. Funny thing is, I haven't run to the store yet to purchase anything on my wish list yet but I will soon. You can see what is on my wish list here.  After organizing my makeup, I realized I have a lot of products that I don't use and need to try out soon. I'm going to try to really shop my stash before running out and buying something new. Maybe next time, I will go for a 3 month no buy!! Have you successfully completed a no buy? What is currently on your wish list? Comment below and let me know!! ~** Drea Notes**~ We went to the beach today and I'm so glad we did! It was such a fun day with the family!! I'm trying to get back to working out lol!  ...
