Mall Crawl #1

I haven't gone shopping all summer, which is probably why I purchased these treats for myself today. Although I only went to three stores, I definitely got what I needed and more...
The three shops I went to were Altar'd State, LUSH, and Kate Spade.

LUSH was the first stop, and it was amazing. I smelled amazing for at least 2 hours after.

What I got and why:

⊗Big Shampoo: Has sea salt, is great for flat and fine hair

⊗Hair Doctor Hair Mask: Helps dry scalp and helps growth

⊗Teaser Veganese Conditioner: Helps with fine hair and volume (which I need help with both)

⊗Space Girl: I just liked the sparkles and it gives me an excuse to take a bath, not a shower!

Then I headed over to Altar'd State for the first time, and I'm so glad I did! I fell in love the second I walked into the door, and I adored the religious aspect on it. I'll definitely be stopping by again before school. 

What I got and why:

⊗Blue, Pink, and White Chevron Dress: I found this adorable dress and I love it so much! Baby doll dresses are my favorite thing

⊗Cross Necklace: There were many cross items there, but this one stood out to me due to the simpleness of it

⊗God sign: I just loved this quote, which will be put onto my wall very soon. 

And finally, the best part of my purchase...MY KATE SPADE BAG!

I've been saving for this bag (frankly, any bag from Kate), so when I went into the store and saw this beauty of a bag on the sale rack, I pounced. I've had my mom hold some money for me for awhile now, so I wouldn't spend it on something stupid. See more in depth with my Kate Spade Bag Review that's posted!

Best. Mall. Crawl. Ever.

What's your favorite store?

Makeup 101

So this is it. I lost my makeup virginity.

I've never been a big makeup person. In fact, other than some of my friends have held me down and attempted to 'make me look pretty' for a party before, I've never really worn it. Maybe I've never worn it because the few times I have, I've forgotten to take it off or stabbed myself in the eye.

Which is probably why my mother was incredibly shocked when I placed powder, mascara, brushes and foundation into my cart. Granted, I probably got the wrong shade or thing, but I did the best I could do with zero expirence.

What I got and why:

⊗BB Cream: Due to the fact that I'm new to makeup, I didn't want a thick foundation my first go

⊗Big Eyes Mascara: I really liked how the mascara had a brush for bottom and top lashes

⊗Baby Lips//Coral Crave: I LOVE menthol and I wanted just subtle color+Baby Lips are amazing

⊗Healthy Skin Powder: I heard I needed to put this over concealer and foundation?+it was the perfect shade

⊗Makeup Remover Towelettes: These are the holy grail of makeup remover and I HAD to get my own pack

⊗Generic Brushes//pack of 4: I didn't want to purchase the $30+ single brushes when I knew nothing about them, so I simply picked up the generic drugstore brushes, but I hope to add better ones later

How old were you when you started wearing makeup?

**Makeup all came from Target, so it's drugstore makeup. The mascara, BB Cream, and Baby Lips are Maybelline. The Makeup Remover Towelettes and Healthy Skin powder are Neutrogena**
