This is the newly launched subscription service by Essence Magazine and it 15.00 a month. So that is it for my November Essence Beauty Box. What dd you think of this month's box? Have you tried any of the products? Comment below and let me know, Stay warm and see you tomorrow! Have you checked out my previous post,  Essence and Ebony Best of Beauty 2015?? ~**Drea Notes**~ I do not like to wear hats when it is cold for some reason. I think I need to start so I don't get sick lol! I'm going to try to put up the Christmas tree this weekend, the goal is to try lol!

Happy Monday! As most of you know Essence is one of my favorite magazines and so is Ebony. When I saw their best of 2015 articles, I got an idea for a post. I was going to try out some of these products for a few weeks and post my thoughts on them. Most of what I'm going to talk about is makeup but I have a couple non makeup products to talk about. I held off on the hair products until I took out my faux locs (which I was supposed to take out this weekend but didn't happen lol) So let's get into the reviews. Best Makeup Primer: Cover Girl Outlast All-Day Primer I recently raved about this primer in my October favorites. This is my new favorite, holy grail primer. I had to try this when I saw that it helped with oily skin. I don't have to blot my t-zone anymore or only once a day with this primer. It really does an amazing job with controlling the oil. It also gives a flawless canvas for your foundation and hides my pores. It is only 9.00 and can be found at a

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-

Happy Sunday! It has been such a busy week and weekend with work, schoolwork, birthday party and the Spartan Race!! I was so excited and nervous about the race.

Happy Friday!! It looks like the Fall weather is back! I hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend so far. Today's post is going to be a review on the Evian Facial Spray. *I received these products complementary from BrandBacker and this is my opinion after testing. Let's get into the review!! Powered by BrandBacker I was pretty excited when I accepted to the campaign. I have seen other bloggers reviewing this product and I was pretty curious about it. When you see the name Evian you automatically think of water ,not a beauty product. I was interested to see how this product would work. Directly from the site, this product is the  Perfect way to help hydrate in air conditioned, or over-heated offices. evian® helps enhance the effectiveness of all moisturizers and any skin care regimen. evian® Facial Spray revives color cosmetics throughout the day.

Happy Sunday!! This weekend was so much fun with the Halloween parades, party and trick or treating! Can't believe November is already here! I can't wait for Thanksgiving, it is one of my favorites holidays. Well today's post is another Just Fab purchase. If you don't know about Just Fab, it is a monthly subscription service that you fill out a survey and a stylists picks out shoes for you based on that survey. You can choose something from your showroom, from the rest of the site or opt to skip the month. The subscription is 39.95 a month and if you want to skip, you have to do so before the 5th of the month or you will be charged. So let's get into my pick for this month. These are the Jaslene shoes and I got them in Nude. They have a 4" heel and I was drawn to them because of the cute detail of the lock and key. These are more of a peachy-brown nude which is a shade I don't have. I really love them and can't wait to pair outfits with t
