❤Bella Beauty Tip❤



Hey my Bellas!
Omg I can't believe I'm almost at 40 followers!!

So here we go again with another Bella Beauty Tip:

Coat your feet in a layer of Vaseline everyday after your morning shower and before you go to bed.

Next, put on some socks you don't mind getting Vaseline on.

Do this everyday throughout winter and before you know it you'll have sandal-ready feet by spring ❤

Battle of the Lip Balms: Baby Lips vs EOS Lip Sphere!



I love both EOS and Baby Lips! They have cute packaging and great scents. They're are a few differences though.

For the Baby Lips, they're are some tinted lip balms while EOS doesn't offer tinted balms.

The baby lips has a thick semi-sticky feel on the lips while the EOS absorbs into your lips and the baby lips just stays on. I guess this is because it's supposed to last 8 hours...

Anyway they're both really great lip balms but just do different things. Get them both and see which one you like more!!

Victoria's Secret So Sexy Shine Hairspray Review




A friend told me to get this hairspray and I'm so glad I did!

Its the Victoria's Secret So Sexy Style Shine Mist and I got it from eBay for about $10.

It smells really great and I use it everyday to add glossy shine and a delicious scent to my hair after I style it.

Get this today if you want that sexy smelling, shiny, Victoria's Secret model hair ^_^

X-out Facial Cleanser Review


So I've been using the X-out facial cleanser for about a week and a half and have been seeing some results with my skin.

So far, the amount of white heads I wake up with every morning have gone down. Now I only get large pimples from time to time. My skin is smoother and and my acne marks are fading.

Now, X-out (from the makers of Proactive) claims that it is a : 
"Wash-In treatment because it has prescription-grade acne medicine that gets sucked deep into pores and stays behind to help kill breakout-causing bacteria on contact, even after you wash. It's an extra-strength anti-microbial. Which really means it blasts out acne bacteria. It's part of what makes it so easy and effective--it keeps working so you don't have to."

You just massage it into your skin for two minutes twice a day and that's it! There's no long boring line of products you have to slap onto your face. This is good because I'm really lazy when it comes to stuff like that.

It has a great cooling rush that you get from the menthol that's in it and it feels great on the skin.

It keeps my skin from getting oily and its good for daily exfoliation to smooth out your skin before applying makeup.

The cleanser also works as a mask if you leave it on for a few minutes then massage it and rinse. 

Try it now and see how it works for you! When you order from xout.com you can choose the one-time delivery option (so they don't keep charging your card) and you get a free cleansing body bar with your purchase (I haven't tried that yet) 

I'll be going through the whole bottle and let you all know how it worked for me. ❤


❤Sanrio.com Mini Haul❤





Went to the Hello Kitty store in Times Square and picked up a few cute things.

The musical jewelry box is $35.00 and plays the song Blue Danube with a spinning Hello Kitty in the top part with drawers underneath. I put all my jewelry in it and i'm so happy I got it.

The coin bank is $10.00 and features the character My Melody it's kinda small so I keep my rare coins and international coins in it.

The wallet was $32.00 and the i.d. case was about $15.00

I used a coupon and gift certificate so I didn't a lot of money for these things. ❤

❤Hello Kitty Amazon Haul❤



Finally got my Amazon.com order in the mail.

I bought mostly Hello Kitty stuff because I absolutely love all things Hello Kitty! ❤

The first thing I got was the wallet at about $25 and its super cute with a coin pouch included with all the things a regular has. It's quilted with a puffy bow...so adorable!

The next thing is a cute phone case/pouch that can fit an iPhone or my phone the Samsung Galaxy S2 I got for $15. The picture is wrong it's actually the same dark pink inside and not yellow. The charm is removable and i plan on adding different charms to it.

The last few things are a couple compact mirrors i picked up for about $8 in total and they're all really cute! What Hello Kitty item isn't cute????

Thanks to everyone following my blog :) ❤

Battle of the Mascaras: Lash Stiletto vs. Falsies!





So I've been wearing my Maybelline Volume Express Falsies Mascara for a week straight now and decided to let you all know what I think about it in comparison to my favorite Lash Stiletto Mascara. 

So, both of these are really great mascaras and I recommend them both but they work differently (at least for me they do)

The Lash Stiletto creates a fanned out, long, defined look that you can get with about two good coats. This one works for everyday makeup and night time makeup. 

The Falsies mascara gives me big, curled, dramatic, baby doll lashes with one coat! I use it very lightly for the daytime and apply only one full coat for the night. I found that this does clump a little bit but I just fix it with a cotton swap. 

In general they're both really good and can stand up with the other more expensive mascaras but they both just do different things for me. ❤



❤Bath and Body Works Haul❤


Got these from Bath and Body Works.com where they were having their buy 3 get 2 free sale when you add 5 items to you shopping cart.

I was running low on body wash so I decided to restock my 5 favorite scents!

From left to right are the body wash scents: Cherry Blossom, Japanese Cherry Blossom, Black Raspberry Vanilla, Warm Vanilla Sugar, and (my all time favorite) Country Apple 

I recomend  Cherry Blossom, Black Raspberry Vanilla, and Country Apple for Spring but you can wear whatever you want whenever you want...so do you ^_^

I got everything for $31.50 with a free shipping coupon I got at retailmenot.com

The sale is still going on so stock up on great smelling body stuff! ❤

❤Mac Viva Glam Nicki and Ricky❤









Finally got the new Nicki Minaj Lipstick and Ricky Martin Lip conditioner from MAC!

I ordered both from the website with free shipping since the store near me was sold out.

The lipstick was $14.50 and the lip conditioner was $15.00.

The lipstick is a yellow pinky coral with a satin finish and the lip conditioner is clear...duh...

I like the lipstick on my bottom lip but not my top lip since the color payoff is different (ashy!) the lip conditioner is great though.

This is a really bright lipstick so use it sparingly lol and pair with a neutral eye.

Every penny of your purchase goes to helping people with HIV/AIDS so get them before they're gone and shop for a good cause! ❤

❤Walmart.com Micro Haul❤


I recently had to restock some of my makeup staples so I went to Walmart.com since there's no Walmart near me (how messed up is that!)

Anyway, I repurchased my Maybelline Lash Stiletto Mascara and Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain in Gothic and Passion — these are the eye and lip products I use everyday!

I also bought the EOS Lip Sphere in Sweet Mint as a new alternative to the boring stick version I have of their lip balm. 

Out of curiosity, I bought the Maybelline Volume Express Falsies Mascara in Black Drama and fell in love with it. It gives me big pretty baby doll eyelashes. Get your hands on some if you don't have this already!

All together i didn't spend more than $15 for everything. Let me know what your beauty staples are ❤

❤Forever21 Purse Micro Haul❤

Saw these bags at Forever21 and had to get them.

They medium sized, long strap, front closure bags with 2 large pockets and a small inner pocket and small inner sip pocket.

I got one in navy and one in chocolate brown. They both cost $19.50 and are super cute.

They hold all the stuff you'll need for the day like your phone, iPad, wallet, sunglasses and makeup.

They're also somewhat big enough for school. It can fit small composition notebooks and small novels.

Get them before they're sold out! ❤

Maybelline New York Baby Lips Collection




I am in love with these lip balms!! At first I wasnt really interested in them since they were so hard to find in the stores and kind of over priced.

However when I saw one of the girls in my class (who usually has ashy cracked lips from hell...but she's cool) using it I thought that if it was working for her then it would certainly work for me since my lips werent in as severe a conditon as hers.

So I bought one (in peppermint) at CVS and fell in love with it. It worked a lot better then my EOS balm and lasted longer. My lips felt much softer, smoother and looked a lot lighter since I have dark spots on my upper lip.

Unfourtunately I lost it after about a week and my lips reverted back to normal. So I decided to buy all of them and do a review on them.

I got all six from ebay for $23.95 including shipping. From left to right you have Cherry Me (red tint), Grape Vine (plum tint), Peppermint (no tint), Peach Kiss (peachy tint), Quenched (no tint), and Pink Punch (hot pink tint).

I love all of them, they're not extremly pigmented so its good for everyday wear. The scents are light and fade after awhile and they have SPF 20 and last a few hours without the need to re-apply. I keep one in the bathroom, one in my room, one in my purse, and one in my locker at school! It does everything it says it can by making your lips better overall.

I recommend using a lip scrub before applying the balm to help get rid of any peeling skin. I scrub my lips every morning with a toothbrush (just for my lips and nothing else) right before applying any balm.

After 2 weeks I've seen a big difference in the overall appearance of my lips and hopefully you will too! Get them now! ❤

❤Gojane.com Mini Haul❤






Hey guys! I know I've been gone for a while, but I had to handle a few things before I could get back to blogging.

Anyway here's a little haul post of these cute shoes and ring I got from Gojane.com

The black and pink studded ballet flats are $23.10 each and the pink ice cream ring is around $9.00.

I know the flats are still available if you want to pick them up but I'm not too sure about the ring.

The shoes are really cute, with a girly rocker feel, but they run a little bit on the larger side so shop with caution ^_^

If you check out retailmenot.com you'll be able to find a ton of coupons and promotion codes for almost any store you could think of. I found a 20% off Gojane coupon there ❤
