    Yes, that is a small tube of mascara. I have extremely sensitive eyes, and have to change my mascara every month. My current favorite mascara is Benefit Bad Gal Lash, and since it is $19 a tube and I waste most of it I buy samples from Benefit bars. The samples usually cost me $9 a piece.

     {and repeat with the other eye.}

    * note my hair is being held out of my eyes with my No-Crease Bow Clip from Ricky\’s NYC

     {finished product}

     No-Crease Bow Clips come in a variety of colors. Here are a few of my favorite.
     No-Crease Bow Clips Pastel
     No-Crease Bow Clips Blonde, Red and Green
    No-Crease Bow Clips Black with Rhinestones

    You have asked me before to share some of my beauty secrets with you and these are two of my absolute favorite ones.

    The Lash Card always me to have luminous lashes without the mess on my eyelids and it always allows for that extra va-va voom.

    Ricky\’s No Crease Bow Clips is just simply amazing! I don\’t know how any girl who does her hair or makeup can live without these clips!

    What do you think of the Lash Card?

     {tiffany & co. birthday cake!}
    Well as I mentioned I was completely depressed about turning 25. It\’s just a depressing number for me at least. However my birthday was absolutely amazing, and will be even better when I head to Michigan on Wednesday! I am so excited to go home…. i`ll be getting \”my mummie\” cake from my Mum as well. My mum has made me a birthday cake every year,  sometimes it\’s before my birthday and sometimes it\’s after. But every year I get one! :]

    {cakes made with love}
    As a kid birthday\’s were always something I looked forward to. A beautiful cake made by my Mum with love. From a telephone cake to hello kitty and everything in between, my Mum definitely had her work cut out for her come my birthday. Gifts usually consisted of Barbie\’s, and  birthday\’s were fun. This year it\’s depressing. Turning 25… being half way to 50… honestly where has the time gone?
