Makeup…

I have never been one to buy, obsess, wear or even enjoy makeup. I really have been lucky enough to not have to wear makeup. However, I always find myself browsing the makeup aisle, or going into an Ulta or Sephora hoping something will jump out and me and inspire me to try something new, and that happened to me the other day. I ran across an instagram feed of Drew Barrymore - I love Drew Barrymore, I mean who doesn't love Drew Barrymore! So instantly I clicked on her name and scrolled down. I was noticing how light and glowing her makeup and face looked, and I immediately thought that is what I wish I could do to my face, let's face it I turned 38 a few weeks ago, and I am thinking now is the time I should probably start wearing a little more makeup to hid these dark under eyes, red blemishes and wrinkles, yes I said wrinkles! They are happening. So as I was scrolling her feed I saw this picture of makeup, so I made it bigger and saw what it was, so I quickly googled it and come to find out, this makeup is Drew Barrymore's line, of course it is...where the hell have I been that I didn't know about this. Anyway, I sat and watched her tutorials and quickly fell in love. So I bought a few of the products, and I have to say, I am loving it. The thing that I love the most is it's light and doesn't feel like I have a “makeup mask” all over my face. I also love that I am totally excited to get ready for the day and put my makeup on. So that is a huge plus!! I can't wait to buy more of this product and try new things!! It's important to feel pretty, and like a lady. Especially when you are a mom, running kids around, doing laundry, cleaning up from breakfast, lunch and dinner. I know when I get ready for the day, and now apply this beautiful product to my face, I function so much better! So if you are like me, and don't LOVE makeup or if you just want to try something new, I highly recommend this product!!




I totally love the lip chubby - and also the moisturizing foundation. 
The cream eye shadow is amazing!! 
Check out her website http://flowerbeauty.com - she has some wonderful product.

What to BLOG about…

I am sitting here, looking at all of my pictures, trying desperately to figure out what the hell to blog about. But the overwhelming feeling is taking over. It's been too long since I have blogged and to start from the last time I blogged…well, I would be here for days with updates.

Blogging really needs to be more than random posts every nine months - what the hell is wrong with me. It's not like I don't have the time. Don't get me wrong, I will take playing with my kids - or binge netflix watching any day! But seriously! This is ridiculous. I mean, I want to journal my life, my kids, my thoughts and feelings. I should make time to do that! I need to learn to stick with something and just do it…RIGHT? RIGHT!

Well, I can only give it my best…and see what happens. Hopefully I can be more consistent.

For now, I will add a few favorite moments…

Love this girl so much, she works hard at everything she does. So proud of her.
