Free Brush Bag From Benefit

Benefit offers up this adorable brush case for FREE with any brush purchase! The Betty Bag features a flap on top that flips up to reveal 4 brush pouches, and a zipper compartment on the side to hold shadow, powder and gloss for quick touch ups. Perfect to keep in your purse, or take on weekend getaways. Just add any brush to your cart, and enter code BETTYBAG at checkout.

A good brush to pick up? This hard angle brush is very versatile, and one of my must have's. Use it to fill in brows, apply shadow as liner, or to create a perfect "cat eye" shape on the outer corners of your lids. Just load the end of the brush with shadow, dab it on at an upward angle pointing towards the outer tip of your eyebrow, and then fill in your lid and crease from there. It makes it SO easy! Like coloring inside the lines. :)

If you decide to stock up on any of their "Buh-Buys", skincare products, or other cosmetics, enter promo code FRESHP65 for free shipping on purchases of $65 or more. While you're there, check out Benefit's Beauty School, and order yourself a catalog for new powder room reading material. (C'mon... we all read in the "Jane"...)

Happy Birthday to me...

Happy birthday toooo meeee, happy birthday dear meeee-eeeeeeeeee, happy birthday to me. :)

So, my birthday went by almost unnoticed. boo hoo. I'll cut DH some major slack because our kids, who were away camping with gramma and grampa, came home early when my 6 year old had an accident. He tripped and fell onto a camping bbq pit and got severe 2nd degree burns on his leg. Let me tell you, it is HEARTBREAKING to see my poor baby so hurt. When i was a kid, I remember my dad always telling me he wished he could take whatever ailed me, and be sick or hurt in my place. Now as a mother, i understand completely. Riley is actualy doing very very well, but healing will certainly take some time:

Today, my husband surprised me with a late birthday present. I couldn't believe he remembered me mentioning this bag months ago, and then he went searching for it and got it for me, just in time for our trip!



It's by Soap and Glory and is available at Target. This one is the train case, they also have a larger bag that looks a bit like a flattened bowling ball bag. (I may actually go exchange for the larger one. Ssshh. Don't tell!;) The pink is glossy like patent leather, but very soft. The inside has two pockets, and a pull out mirror. It's large enough to hold travel sized bottles of shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc. Very cute. Very pink. and it has a STAR. It's PERFECT!

Fun Stuff from Dollar Tree

I saw these little boxes and thought they'd be great for organizing my make up collection. Also some LA Color cosmetics that they now carry. If you have a Dollar Tree near you, go get some of these boxes before they are all gone!

Cool things for $1

I recently went to a $1 store to find supplies for my kiddos' birthday party tomorrow and found some unexpected goodies! I have a little video that i'll try to get uploaded before the weekend! :)
