Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? It was sunny and warm here for a change! David and I worked on our garden and got a lot of veggies planted. This is our first time having a garden, and I'm so happy to finally have one.
Today I have my favorite MMC post for you! Eyeshadow palettes have always been my weakness when it comes to purchasing new makeup. Specifically limited edition palettes and palettes with beautiful packaging. No matter how hard I try to purchase something different, I always end up buying a new eyeshadow palette when I have extra money to spend.
What is your favorite drugstore eyeshadow palette? I need to purchase some soon because I have mostly high end palettes. I've had a few drugstore eyeshadow palettes in the past, but they've all been underwhelming or terrible quality so I ended up giving them away.

Hello, everybody! How was your weekend? I, like most people, do not enjoying losing an hour of sleep, but the weather has been beautiful so I can overlook it.
Today's MMC is all about lipgloss. I recently went through and threw out some old glosses, but I still have quite a few considering I don't particularly like lipgloss. I love how it looks, but I don't enjoy the feel of them on my lips or when they get onto my face and in my hair.
Let's briefly address the obvious first. I know most people prefer the clean look of bright white backgrounds, but I'm quite bored of them now. It seems like most product photos that I come across have a white (or at least fairly light) background and they all start to blend into one another, so I want to try something different for a bit. My favorite color is red, so I thought I'd try a red background for a while to see how that goes. Let me know what you think in the comments!
NARS: Pink Glow, Mezmer, Orgasm, and Turkish Delight
MAC: Twerkquoise, Saint Germain, Sweet Strawberry, Viva Glam 6, Seducing Sound, Viva Glam Miley, Viva Glam Riri, and Domestic Diva
Minis: Bite Beauty, Marc Jacobs Beauty, Vintage by Jessica Liebeskind, and Make Up For Ever
Those are all of my lipglosses! What is your favorite lipgloss formula?
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you have a fantastic week!
Hello, everyone! How was your weekend? I started my vacation on Saturday, but unfortunately I think I'm getting sick. Isn't that how it always works? T.T
