Things We Love: November

Eye creams in my book are necessity. The skin under your eye is different then the skin on the rest of your face and should be treated accordingly. Clinique all about eyes is an old time favorite that I have recently been reconnected with. I was at an outlet mall recently and went into the Cosmetic Company Outlet. If you haven't been to one GO! I was able to snag this little guy for a pretty good deal and thought I would see if it was all that I remembered it to be. It was! I am back in love. The best part about eye creams are they last forever since you need such a small amount. Side note Clinque is offering free shipping till the end of December!



Personally I sort of hate "fall" and "holiday" smells when it comes to candles. They are usually way to strong and I get sick of them before I can burn them out. Farmstand Apple was one of the fall smells from Bath & Body Works. I was not in love when I bought it but there was a deal and thought it was alright. Well after burning it for a while I am actually in love. I think it is fresh and sweet and just perfect for the kitchen. I ended up finding a reed diffuser at Pier 1 also in a scent almost identical to this and had to buy that too!


I am all about face masks. Even when they're not doing that much for my face I think there fun and relaxing. The Aveda Outer Peace Cooling mask does it all, it actually works and lets me have my fake spa time. When it says it calms skin and reduces redness its truth. The only trick is make sure you apply it thick or it wont give you the full results. Your suppose to only use it once a week which is sort of depressing but, I am sure a person could use it more than that.


Finally got my first Ipsy bag, overall I was pretty pleased. But I was surprised that I actually fell in love with one of the products it is a lip crayon by Be a Bombshell in the color hot damn . It goes on with complete ease, feels great, and wears well. I was pretty surprised at how long it lasted actually. I went ahead and ordered two more and cannot wait to get them!





Thought I would add a picture of my first Ipsy bag for fun, I am telling you go sign up!

Things We Love: October X2

Krystal's October Obsessions 

I would say lipstick is always one of my favorite finds, but as fall approaches I am excited to pull out some bold darker colors. One of my favorites right now is Diva by MAC. I think it is such a rich beautiful color. Don't be scared by how dark it seems, I was put off at first to. Head to MAC and try it on what will it hurt right?

Have you heard of Ipsy? I might be the last person on the planet who did't know what this was but just in case anyone else is in my shoes I have to mention it. It's this site where you sign up ($10 / per month) and they send you a cute cosmetics bag with makeup inside! What more could a girl ask for? It lets you test products that you might not have bought on your own, plus its like getting a magic gift every month. BUT there is a waiting list so go sign up asap!

Classical Music, before you yawn it's amazing for studying. I hate sitting in silence when I study, I am easily distracted by noises around me and when I listen to my usual music I am to busy singing along. Now while studying I listen to this classical music medley I put on my pandora. It helps keep me focused and it's actually really calming. Highly recommend it.



Lately I've been wearing my hair curly more so than straight to keep it healthy and have a more natural look. But, when I do straighten it I want it to be as shiny and soft as possible. Recently I tried Ever Straight Brazilian Keratin Therapy Flat Iron Spray. It smells great and has my hair looking healthy and feeling soft!



Lastly, I got new perfume while on my girls trip to Miami and I am obsessed its from a line called Tokyomilk Dark. I wear "everything & nothing" which is made up of mandarin, tuberose, gardenia, and vetiver but they all smell good. There is a big enough variety in the scents so there really is something for everyone. I picked mine up at Barney's but I know they are also sold at Sephora.
