Currently Loving: Tervis Tumblers

Ok so these are not anything new really, but I just bout my first Tervis Tumbler and I am in love! They are basically like a plastic cup that you would keep in your cabinet at home, but you can buy tops for them so you can take them on the go too! They have a cup for just about everybody, whether your a girly girl or even one for your sports loving boyfriend (I sound so much like a commercial right now, I promise I'm not being paid for this haha). And they keep your hot drinks hot and your cold drinks cold. Plus they are plastic and washable so it's good for the environment!

I kind of have a feeling that these may be more of a southern thing, so those of you that don't live in the south, do you have these?

Oh, they also have reusable straws you can buy! I currently have a pink leopard print one with a pink top sitting next to me :)

If you want to browse the Tervis Tumbler website, here is the link- http://www.tervis.com/Tumblers

So, do you use Tervis Tumblers, or some other sort of cool cup? Have you even heard of them? I'm going to try to get one for a giveaway, but I can't promise anything yet, we'll have to see how the money situation is when I go shopping.

Coconut Water?

I subscribe to several beauty gurus on Youtube, and I just watched this video today from missglamorazzi

I am definitely going to try this out. I don't like the taste of coconut, but if what she says is true about it not tasting like coconut, that would be amazing. Has anybody ever tried this, with this brand or another brand? I'm very curious.

BACK finally. For good this time, hopefully

Oh my goodness it's been over a month since I've posted! I'm soooo slack!!! I am so so so so sorry for being gone this long, I had no idea junior year would be this busy and hectic :/ I'm slowly starting to get things in order and making some much needed "me time" which will include blogging again. Anyway, before I get back to regular posts, I'll use this post to do a quick update.

Junior year is going well so far, it's a lot harder than last year but my grades are pretty good. I have a new boyfriend and he is pretty amazing :) He is so sweet, and we have been going out for a month and...some odd weeks. I know I'm bad, I should know how long. He's good at that though, he remembers what time we started dating.

I've slowly become way more intrigued with beauty products than fashion...I think I have a new obsession. So don't be surprised if beauty posts become more popular, at least until I find a new obsession. I just bought a couple of things from MAC's Venomous Villains collection, I really wanted to buy more but money is kind of tight since I stopped working during the school year. I got the Mineralize Eye Shadow Duo in She Who Dares and the Nail Lacquer in Formidable!, which are both for Maleficent.

Hmmm...I can't really think of any thing else exciting going on right now. My birthday is next month, which is pretty cool. I'll be 17 on October 28th. Woohoo!

Well I guess that's about it. I'm so excited to be back (hopefully for good this time) and back to reading all of your blogs. I felt so lost and out of touch while I was on my little break!

I'm still here, I promise!

Blah, no post in over a week, I fail. Sorry guys, I have been really busy getting ready to go back to school and doing last minute reading and such. I played paintball yesterday in the BLAZING heat...with all those layers, that was NOT a good idea haha. But, it was fun. I am still sore from it though. Anyway, just letting you know that I did not die or anything, just super busy. I will be back soon!

Favorite Drugstore Skincare Essentials?

I used to have really bad acne, I tried various drugstore brand products, and some Clinique too, but the only things that seemed to work were things that my dermatologist prescribed for me.

Now, I don't have such severe acne, just the occasional breakout, but I do have bad acne scarring. I think it's time for me to give drugstore brands a try again. The thing is, when I go to the drugstore to buy things, I am so overwhelmed and not sure what to buy.

So, my question for you is, what are your favorite drugstore skincare essentials (cleanser, moisturizer, etc.) and why? Help me narrow down my search haha :)

If it helps, my skin is pretty sensitive, gets very dry in the winter and more oily in the summer. I have natural redness in my face (possibly Rosacea?) and bad acne scarring. Suggestions are greatly appreciated :)

Tie Dye Craze

I know I'm extremely late to jump on the tie dye bandwagon, but all of a sudden I am OBSESSED with everything tie dye. I think my inner hippie is taking over for a while because I just bought a cute hippie headband and a hemp anklet, along with a lot of tie dye. This phase will pass over shortly though I'm sure.

^ Not tie dye, but hippie related and funny.

What do you think? Do you like tie dye or do you think it should stay in the past? What pattern are you loving right now?
