True Test Thursday- L'Oreal Magic Nude Liquid Powder.

Okay, this is going to be a new way that I will review products. When I did my Dove Deodorant review, I decided to post it on a Thursday because I have a lot of things going on on Thursdays. I have 3 classes, barely any time to myself... so if something can past the Thursday test it is a truly amazing product. This isn't exactly a first impression, because a lot of times I like to test things RIGHT away so a first impression isn't all that good.

Also this isn't really a new product or anything... but it's new to me so I thought I'd give this a go. I had a $2 off L'oreal coupon and they are definitely one of my favorite drugstore brands and this is something I was interested in so I thought why not?

I tried this for the first time on Sunday Night, and my first impression was that I liked it a lot. I used a primer under it and it was really nice and easy to blend with my fingers. It was more full coverage than my Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream but it looks more natural than the Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous foundation.

This was the first time I applied it with a moisturizer, primer and then the foundation itself... and it stung! I don't know why, I think the sunscreen in the moisturizer and the sunscreen in the foundation did not mix well together. It does have a sort of alcohol-y smell so maybe it has to do with that. I don't think this is the best ingredients. The packaging also makes it a little difficult. Without a pump it's easy to use too much of this, but a little bit goes a long way, so really I'd just stick with that. It's like 9 ish that I applied this btw. 

Okay... I kinda failed this one not gonna lie. I fell asleep after applying it... it kind of wore off because I wasn't really careful with it. Overall I like the foundation and it does stay a while and look nice with a primer... but I'm upset I didn't get the "true test" of it... ohhh well its been a crazy day.

Blogmas Day 12: The 12 Days of Christmas Gift Guide

So I thought it would be fun to do a gift guide that every gift corresponds with the price. So like for the first day of Christmas $1 gift that would be good and then up from there. These would be good stocking stutterers and things I just think are unique. $1- Solar Powered Dancers!  My mom loves getting the little dancing solar powered people. We get most of ours from Dollar tree... other dollar stores have them too, they're super cute and fun for $1. Its good to put near any plants that you have that way you know they're getting sunlight. It's a good gift. $2- Mini Coloring Book!  At 5 Below they had some mini travel sized coloring books for $2. I thought these were pretty cool. I got the Botanical one I believe. Really cute and fun! I would recommend! $3-   Ceramic Truck w/ Christmas Tree  I saw this at the Target Dollar Spot and I thought it was cute and would probably make a great gift. If you know someone who has a truck or likes the sort of "rustic C...

Scribbles About Food: Gloria Jeans Pistachio Chiller (kinda like a frap)

So since I'm doing all of the Frappuccino reviews, I thought I would give a shout out to a different coffee chain that I like... maybe even more than Starbucks! But I hardly ever go to it because A) People get your orders wrong there a lot B) I don't really live near one! So Gloria Jeans has some amazing drinks called Chillers that are like Frappuccinos, but they have always had a ton of really good and really interesting flavors. One of my favorite Seasonal ones is the Pistachio Chiller. They had this around this time last year also and its a really good unique flavor. Basically it tastes like pistachio ice cream... but in a frozen coffee form. Its pretty cool! And Pistachio is a pretty underrated flavor in my opinion. I don't get it enough, but I always love Pistachio and Almond flavored desserts and this in particular is really flavorful and just a really good chiller. I don't think there is anything at starbucks that compares to it really, its really different...

Scribbles about Books: Horns by Joe Hill

I picked this book up not too long ago because after seeing the trailer for the movie and seeing it was based on a book I thought "Hey, that looks good. I should read the book." Then my friend gave me a Barnes and Noble gift card for my birthday and I thought "Hey I wanted to read Horns, I should grab that." And I did, and I had to read it around halloween of corse! So this is my kind of horror story first of all. I love that the universe it takes place in is very realistic and very small-town. If you've noticed in some of my other book reviews... I like mysteries that take place in small towns. And its very believable because the world and the characters are all so real. I think its a good book just for that. The book starts out with this guy Ignatious, or Ig a year after his girlfriend Merrin is murdered. He grows horns from out of his head... for no real reason. And then a few chapters in we find out who really did it and then we find out why and that thi...
