Hello, Fireflies!

Hair curlers, you might ask? But you already have curly hair! Why on earth would you review hair curlers?

Hello, Fireflies!

I came a little late to the beauty game, and now I feel like I have a lot of catching up to do.  I can't buy everything, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to try everything!  One of the best ways I've found to try a little of all the newest and best stuff is through subscription boxes.  I'd never tried Glossybox, so when I was offered a trial box, I jumped at the chance.  Five deluxe samples from luxury brands? I was hoping for a good experience!

Old School Gaming

Hello, Fireflies!

This month's NCC Challenge theme is Video Games.  I'm not a hard-core gamer, but I married one!  We bonded over dates playing pinball and arcade games way back in the day.

Orange Is The New Black

Billion Dollar Brows is a Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.

Hello, Fireflies!

When I discovered the warm neutral palette, the skies parted, a light shone down, and the angels sung.  I know, I'm *supposed* to wear cool tones, and purples with my brown eyes.  But there's something about a peachy-pink orangey look that just steals my heart.

Curvaceous Curls! #Redken

Press Samples.  All opinions are my own.

Hello, Fireflies!

When I was growing up in the '70's, I wanted Farrah Fawcett winged hair.  Desperately.  I didn't appreciate or understand how to take care of my weird hair - so thick, with tight coils at the nape of my neck, loosening to ringlets and then waves near the crown.  Since then, there's been a proliferation of moisturizing and curl-loving hair products, I'm happy to say.  Some work better for my type of hair than others, because not all curls are the same.  So, I was happy when Redken sent me some products that I think were tailor-made for my hair!

Purple Watermarbles

Hello, Fireflies!

I love watermarbles, but I have the worst time with them.  And worse than trying to create the pattern in the water, is trying to get them cleaned up after I get them on my nails.  Now, I just make watermarble decals!

Light 'em Up - Beauty For Real

Hello, Fireflies!

Some things just naturally go together. Peanut butter and jelly, cat videos and the Internet, and nail polish and flashlights...
