Influenster Moda VoxBox

  It’s been awhile since I’ve gotten an Influenster Box, so I was extremely excited when I found out I qualified for the Influenster Moda VoxBox. For those of you who don’t know, Influenster often works with companies curating themed boxes that they send to people to review for free.

A Timeless Romance Anthology: Silver Bells Collection

A Timeless Romance Anthology: Silver Bells Collection on southeastbymidwest.com #bookreview #literary #bookclub

  Due to this being an anthology instead of just one book I’m going to do this book review a bit different. I’m going to start with a general synopsis and review of the overall book with a score for the book as a whole. I will then include a synopsis and a little blurb about each of the novellas inside of the anthology, however,

Lashem Brow Tint

Lashem Brow Tint Featured Image on southeastbymidwest.com #lashem

Purchase: Lashem Price: $20 One of things that I always do with my makeup is my brows. I can’t leave the house without doing my brows and putting on some lipstick.

Zoya Wishes Preview

A couple of weeks ago I was surfing through some other beauty blogs and I saw a post for the Zoya Wishes collection. The post didn’t contain swatch photos or photos of the actual polishes, just stock images. However, as soon as I saw the collection I feel in love and knew I had to have it! I headed over to Zoya’s site and preceded

Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant

  Purchase: Dermalogica Price: $52.00 I received the Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant to review. All opinions, however, are my own and were not influenced by Dermalogica. The Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant packaging is just as good as the Dermalogica Dynamic Skin Recovery. The outer packaging has the same gray and silver that the other Dermalogica product has. It also has the same quality seal sticker which makes

  A few weeks ago the Hubs and I went to CVS to pick up a tube of Neosporin and a few other items. While we were there I noticed that several of the makeup brands were having ExtraBucks Rewards sales. Thinking that I could stock up on some products to review AND get some ExtraBucks to spend on future products as well I decided
