Random Favorites

Magnifying Mirror - I had one when I was in high school, but somehow I didn't have one in college. Gavin bought me a new one as a present. My eyebrows are thankful.



Jack Black Lip Balm -

The girls and I go to Sephora at least once a month, and I always let them try on one perfume and one lipgloss. We were looking at some one the men's stuff and ended up trying on this lip balm. I have both the lemon and the mint kinds, and I love them both. This stuff is awesome.

Too Faced Bronzer -
http://sephora.com/browse/product.jhtml?id=P229406&categoryId=B70
I have used a few different bronzers (Stila, Sephora brand, Benefit, CoverGirl, Nars), and I really like this one. I have only been using it for two weeks, but I like that it is matte (no shimmer). Side note: It smells like Cocoa Puffs cereal.


Johnson's Baby Shampoo - I use this shampoo to clean my make-up brushes. It is way cheaper than an actual bottle of brush cleaner, does the job, and my brushes always smell soooo good.





OPI's Not Like the Movies - I go through random spurts when I do a good job changing up nail polish colors, and then two months go by without me wearing any. Yesterday, my nails were pink. Today, my nails are dark purple. Obviously, I am going through one of my nail polish phases. "Not Like the Movies" looks just kind of gray with a little shimmer in the bottle. In the light though, it sometimes has a lavender tint and other times a green tint. I like that it isn't just a flat color. It partial makes me feel like a teenager rather than a grown-up...which I like.

Lasko Fan -

My sister, my dad, and I all swear by this fan. It is POWERFUL. I sit in front of it when I blow dry my hair because it helps me to not get so freaking hot. I also use it as a nail polish dryer.


Bananagrams - I have been playing Bananagrams on the computer through Facebook for the last month or so. Highly addicting. Personal venting session - I find it SO annoying how everyone jumped on the Words With Friends bandwagon. Hello! It has been around for ages. It is called Scrabble. My brother would jokingly give me a hard time about playing Scrabble and other word games, and now he is a WWF addict, along with half of FB it seems like.




Redbox - So cheap and convenient. I still use my Netflix if I want to watch a TV series and certain movies, but I go to Redbox pretty frequently.







Nike Free Run +2 Shoes -

I heard good things about the original Nike Free Run shoes, but I waited for the 2nd version to come out before buying them. I have had these for a month now, and I seriously love these shoes. I usually wear them with thin socks just so I can feel more of the "bounciness" and cushion of the shoe. These are so comfortable.

Got to love Redbox! Love paying $1 for a movie, and they even send out free codes once in awhile. Maybe I'll check out those Nike shoes! Since I don't have any...ha ;) Oh, and I like matte bronzers also. I don't want my face to shimmer. Just my bod.
