OPI My Gecko Does Tricks

  We were at the store a week ago and I noticed a new display of OPI’s. I started freaking out because where I live in South Carolina we NEVER get new products (my CVS JUST got the Wet n Wild Pop Art shadows that came out in 2013).

November Glossybox

November Glossybox Featured Image

  Glossybox is a subscription box that sends out five beauty, skin care or hair samples each month. A monthly subscription starts at $21/month but it goes down if you purchase multiple months up front. One thing to note about Glossybox is that it does ship super late in the month. For example, the November Glossybox didn’t get to me until the first part of

It’s been awhile since I’ve done a monthly favorites post. I thought that a August 2014 Favorites post would be a great one to jump back in with. Be warned though I didn’t really have any makeup favorites this month as I haven’t really worn makeup this month, it’s just been to hot! Here is what I have been loving though. Lotion I don’t know
