What I got for Christmas 2019

I'm not bragging... I just like to watch these videos and I thought that I would share what I got with you guys!

First off let's start with some makeup! I got pretty much all of the lipsticks from the Safiya Nygaard Colourpop collab line. The only one I didn't order was "Brucie" because the whole collection was sold out when I ordered it- so I needed to order them all individually... and I didn't think I would wear Brucie so I didn't really want to get it. I'm a big fan of Safiya's videos- I try to always watch them when they come out and I'll catch up if I don't watch it right away... so I wanted to try these colors! I was really excited for them- I'll probably post a lip swatch post on my beauty blog.

I also got the Mercury Retrograde palette from Huda Beauty. This is a really fun palette with a lot of wearable colors. From what I've used so far I really love it... but I'll have to use it more times before giving a full review!


My sister also just started selling Lipsense and Senegence so she got me the Gingerbread Lip Kit- which came with the lip color in Gingerbread, Nutmeg, the Gold Glitter Gloss and the Oops Remover. I really like these products- I'm excited that my sister is selling it... and I'm sure I'll post a lot more on this soon. I don't think her Facebook and Instagram pages are public yet... but I'll let you guys know as soon as she makes it public!
I couldn't find the glitter gloss or the other color. 

Next up I got some Michael Kors things!!!

One thing I've been looking for for a long time was a "wallet handbag" type of thing. I had one I loved from Target- but it broke and I wanted a well made one... so when I saw the Michael Kors- even though it was splurgy- I knew it would be well made and I knew I would be able to use it a lot. It's in a pink color too... which is so me!


I also got a gold wristlet that matches a handbag that I recently got. It has the MK logo in a really nice gold shimmery print. I'm obsessed! This is a great wristlet and I've been using it as a wallet in my bag because... why not! lol.

I got a couple of tops too. One was a cozy fleecy pink jacket top and one sweatshirt that is sort of dip-dyed. It has an ombre effect on the bottom and I really like it. The sweatshirt is cropped- but I'm probably going to wear something under it cause I don't do crop tops.


Next up I got some Funko Pops! I had to get the Pop Town of Hagrid's Hut with Fang. I think this is really nicely detailed and it's adorable! So nicely done... I might do a funko friday on this soon!

I also got the Boxlunch Exclusive Frozen Water Noxx. This was like my favorite scene of the movie- seeing else riding the horse and it turning from water to ice and then back to water... it was really fun to watch and I thought it was cool and really pretty.

I also picked up Golliath from Gargoyles- I've been having some luck finding the gargoyles pops. Golliath is actually the second one I've found in the wild. I've been watching Gargoyles on Disney+ so- that is a fun one for sure!

I also got the Go! Exclusive Date Mike Michael Scott- this one is so cute! I will definitely do a Funko Friday on this! It's so cute and I just like how much this looks like Michael in that episode.

I got some scrunchies too! I got a cozy pack and one kind of "fancy" pack. These are actually really good scrunchies too- I'm excited to have them!

I've used some of the scrunchies... so it's hard to get a picture of the pack. But I think the "Cozy" pack had a pink, grey and a white scrunchy also.

I got the water bottle that I talked about in my blog yesterday too. I'm sad the lid broke... but I think I have another lid that can fit it.

Most of my stuff I picked out myself- but my parents did get me a few surprises. I told my mom that I really liked the Cuddl Duds with the thumb holes, so she got me a cuddl dud shirt, pants and a velour hoodie... and of corse the top and the hoodie both have the thumb holes that I like. She also got me slippers which are sooo warm and comfy... absolute favorites!

And they surprised me by getting me the Hess Truck! Hess Trucks are something I try to collect now because one of my grandfathers always got them for me as a kid and my other grandfather collected them himself... so this is a special gift that reminds me of both of them.

They also got me some PF Changs gift cards in my stocking! That was exciting!

And I got a creative lettering kit from my boyfriend and a really nice notebook that I've been using as a bullet journal.

Other than some money, gift cards and things I got myself... that is everything! I hope you guys like it!

Bye!

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...

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...

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...
