Let's Catch Up!

Hey there! I know it has been a while since I last blogged but a lot has happened. 

For starters, I received my July Birchbox today in the mail. I was really excited, just like on all the days I get one of these pink boxes in the mail. I opened up the box and here are the goodies...

I received a Redken hair spray, a Philosophy purity cleanser, a mini Zoya nail polish, a multi-purpose oil from Nuxe and a KIND Almond & Apricot bar. 

It was good timing too because I needed a snack. This was delicious and I might just get some at Costco.

The Zoya nail polish color is Pandora and it's a beautiful, sleek color that I would definitely wear.

I haven't tried any Redken hair products so I'm looking forward to trying out the hairspray sample.

I'm also going to use the Nuxe oil, but mostly for my hair (it can be used on the skin as well). 

I've had the purity cleanser before and I'm not really too crazy about it. I don't know what all the hype is about. After I stopped using the cleanser, the color changed to a much deeper yellowish color which frightened me a bit to tell you the truth. I've also used other Philosophy products, Hope in a Jar with SPF moisturizer and the On A Clear Day Oil-Free Foaming Acne Cleanser. The Hope in a Jar with SPF was also a big turn off for me because the oils separated and settled on top of the cream. It was kinda like curded milk...except oily. The On A Clear Day cleanser was okay. I have to be honest, I can't remember how it was but I just threw it out today since it has been collecting dust in my drawer.

 I love the smell of this product Baby Oh Baby Organic Shampoo and Body Wash. Although, I strongly believe this is just the same exact liquid concoction but just labeled differently as a marketing ploy of some sort. The scent is strong from just catching a whiff from the bottle but once you start using it, the scent is less overpowering. These were the last two bottles at the Vitamin Shoppe.

Yes, yes I have adopted a new obsession! I'm painting my nails as much as I can now with these vibrant colors because once Fall semester starts I won't be able to go to the hospital and do my clinicals with these type of colors. I really like this set because it's such a pretty combo but can also be worn on it's own. Servin' Up Sparkle is just like Teenage Dream but the silver version.

I'm really loving peachy/coral lips these days. I'm also trying to give peach cheeks a rest and trying out pink or mauve color blushes. For my eyes, I like to do simple colors but more on the golden apricot and bronze shades. I think this type of makeup is great for the summer. As for my foundation, I wear MAC Studio Sculpt with SPF 15.

Monday was my two year wedding anniversary with my hubby. We went to my favorite Japanese Restaurant, Sakura.

Food was delicious as usual!

I had my Pina Colada drink in this cool ninja cup. =D

After dinner, hubby and I went to the movies to watch Horrible Bosses. It was soooo funny! It's great to go out once in a while. Hubby and I try to go on a date at least once a week. I think it's important in any relationship to have time for each other.

Our baby daughter Mia....

started crawling last night! She is now 6 months, 3 weeks and 1 day old! We are so happy and proud of our lil' munchkin. She's growing so quickly and I feel like it was just yesterday that she was in my tummy. Time to baby proof the house now.

Please let me know if you have any questions! Good luck!
