Julie G Meet and Greet and The Makeup Holiday Pop Up Show

Today was such an amazing day!! My friends and I spent the day in NYC!! First we stopped at Julie G.'s Meet and Greet at Rite Aid. She just launched her Holiday Nail Polish collection for this year and they are amazing!! There are six textured polishes and all the colors are so bright, pretty and just perfect for this time of year!! She was so nice and down to earth :). She really took the time to talk to everyone and was just a pleasure to be around. My friends and I even sent a video message to BeatFace Honey for Julie to come visit the Philly/South Jersey area and she re posted the video on her Instagram!!! Julie G. was painting nails for those who wanted to try the new polishes and I love my nails and even told her about my blog!!! It was just a wonderful experience and I did pick up some of the polishes and eve got a goodie bag which will be up later. After the meet and greet, we headed over to The Makeup Holiday Pop Up Show. It was our first time there and I did enjoy it. It was a pretty small to medium sized event and I got a lot of great stuff (I'm doing a video for my haul from the show)!! We really enjoyed ourselves and can't wait for IMATS in April!!

Taking a break.......

On Tuesday I did mention that I had some exciting news to share. I have been working part time for a while and searching like crazy for full time work. I was starting to get a little frustrated but never gave up. Well a full time opportunity came up at my current job and I am now full time status!!! I was just so overjoyed and thankful. I will have a more stable income, I can go back to school and start to make some moves. Then I started to get a little overwhelmed. How was I going to juggle being a full-time working mom, grad student, blogger and balance everything else. It has been a while since I had a full time schedule and based my blogging schedule around my days off during the week. I start my full time hours next week and just need to take a small break away from Naturalle Drea. I really didn't want to because I love this so much but I need to see how to handle everything. I will most likely change my blogging schedule around. Thank you to those who have been encouraging to...

Updated: How I currently store my makeup

Hey guys! Back in January, I took everyone through my entire, well majority of my makeup collection. I showed how I used to store my makeup. You can see that original post here. I had everything stored in my empty Birchboxes. It was working for a while until I went to two makeup shows and I didn't have a place for everything! As I was cleaning one day, I saw that had this tall storage bin with stuff that I don't even use anymore and thought it would be a great place to store all my makeup and still have it organized. Here is a picture of where my makeup is currently stored. I believe I purchased this 7 drawer unit at Walmart years ago and glad I kept it! It has come in handy. I'll take you through what is in each drawer. I'll start with the top of the unit where all my brushes, setting sprays (that I haven't used yet lol), OCC lip tars( I couldn't find anything to store them in but that red cup lol. I'll have to decorate it later.) and other items...

Make Beauty Review*

Happy Friday beauty lovers! I hope you have been enjoying Winter again lol! I hope Mother Nature gets it together soon lol. Today I am bringing you another review powered by BrandBacker! *I was sent these products for testing purposes and this is my opinion after using. Let's get into the reviews! *Powered By BrandBacker* I was pretty excited when I was picked for this campaign. I have tried a Make Beauty eyeshadow before and loved it. Honestly, I was expecting the samples to be a little bigger. I was a little disappointed in the lipstick sample, it was hard to use. It kept breaking when I was trying to apply it. Make Beauty is a very new company to me that I was introduced to through Birchbox. They have just about everything from eyeshadows to contour kits. They also have a line for skincare as well. Alabaster Eyeshadow This shadow on the Make Beauty site is described as a soft eggshell with peach undertones. This shadow is a matte and can be used as a brow ...
