Bountiful Baskets

Bountiful Baskets is my new favorite thing. It is basically a co-op service where you can pay $15 a week to get tons of fresh fruits and veggies! You can also pay $10 extra for an all organic basket. These baskets are offered all over the country so seriously check out your state to see if there is a location near you! It is also all volunteer run which is awesome. There is a $3 charge for your first basket but you never have to pay that again if you order 100 times or never again. That is one thing that is really appealing about Bountiful baskets to me, that you can buy whenever you want and there is no penalty. The pick ups are on Saturdays at all different times depending on your location, mine was at 11:30 am. 

The veggies I recieved were 5 ears of corn, 2 bunches of lettuce, 3 bell peppers, a bunch of asparagus, a bad of cherry tomatoes, and a bag of peas. 

The fruits were 2 cantaloupes, a mango, 4 bananas, and 6 oranges. 

I definitely got my $15 worth! Another thing is to be sure and bring your own bags/boxes/crates or whatever you want because the baskets they put the produce in are reused every week. There are also different add on packs that you can choose from like a guacamole pack and they also offer breads and granola. Go check this out right now and order if they are in your area!!

Color of the Year!

Emerald has won Pantone's color of the year! I am a sucker for all things Sephora and when I saw this Color of the Year set I just had to have it. I looked around at all the options and just decided I would get the set rather than just get one item. 

This is a shot of the box with everything inside 

I took another shot of the box because I thought they way it opened was so cute!

Inside there was a Graphic Sculpt Waterproof Jumbo Eyeliner  Color Watt Highlighting Mascara both obviously in Emerald. 

I put both of these on my eye to kind of swatch them, the emerald mascara is kind of crazy so I will have to save it for a special occasion! 

The Color Grid Shadow Block Bionic was my favorite item inside!

It opens really neat and behind it is a mirror perfect for touchups. 

Here is a swatch of the three colors on my eye, and no I did not go out of the house looking like this! As you can see the colors are very pigmented and are beautiful together!

Prismatic Shadow Block 

Inside of the shadow, the texture is almost creamy. 

Last is the Color Cube Lid Stain and Lightspeed Glitter Dust.

A peek inside 

When I first opened everything up I thought this was a gel eyeliner so i stuck my eyeliner brush in and quickly found that it is a very light formula and my brush went right to the bottom! I just wanted to include this in here so you did not make the same mistake I did!

Emerald may not be the easiest color to wear but I am really excited to work it into some of my looks. I am going to Savannah for St. Patrick's day in a couple weekends so I am going to try and work it in there and I also got an emerald dress to wear to formal coming up so hopefully that will be another occasion to break out this fun color! Any look suggestions? I would love to hear any suggestions or tips from anyone!

SweetHeart VoxBox Review!

Ok so I was chosen to review one of Influenster's VoxBoxes which is basically where if you are active on the site they send you free products to review. It is a really neat site that I would recommend looking at before trying certain things out for honest reviews!

Here is a picture of the box it came in with the super cute heart sticker in the corner!

Information card 

The first item is the new Olay Fresh Effects cleansing system.

Inside were a battery powered face cleanser that is shaped like a triangle and face wash. It is the newest product in the latest trend of vibrating face cleaners and is designed in a contoured shape to deep clean in and around your T-zone, hairline, and nose. 

Next was the Secret Clinical Strength Stress Response deodorant. I really like Secret's Deodorants and this one is no different. It smells awesome and lasts all day!

Many of you may know this popular brand from their alcohol line and this is their newest addition to the Skinny Girl line! These are the Skinny Girl on the go bars in greek yogurt blueberry crisp. I ate this right after I opened the box and it was so good! Love this new product by Skinny girl!

A girl can never have to much hair spray so I was glad to find the Not Your Mother's Hair Spray this in the box. I have used this brand before and loved it. The hair spray smells really good and also holds my hair great. 

This was such a fun box to receive and I am so glad that I was picked by Influenster. Hopefully I will be picked for more so I can do more reviews for everyone!

M.I.A.

Ok so I am not sure if I mentioned this but I am in college so my blog posts hit a HUGE halt the past couple of weeks. I have had more tests and papers than I can count and in the midst of all that I received my Popsugar and Goodies box that I didn't even take pictures of let alone write a review because I just did not have time. But I plan on getting back on track. I also received an Influenster VoxBox but I plan to do a full post on that later. But that's all I have to say I just wanted to let y'all know that I haven't completely disappeared! Also I have discovered a new thing I am going to try called Bountiful Baskets it is a co-op where you pay $15 to receive tons of fresh fruit and veggies each week. It varies by location but I will try it out and see if it is worth it and report back.
