                    When I got home today I saw this waiting for me. It is my first ever Glossybox :)

                       Glossybox is a monthly subscription box delivered to your door every month.

                           Beats going out in this heat to hunt down all your beauty products eh?
                                           I wanted to share what came in this months box.

                                                         So this is what came in my box:

                         -Amore Pacific Moisture Bound Refreshing Hydra-Gel (South Korea)

                    -Burberry Beauty Lip Mist Natural Sheer Lipstick in Copper [No. 202] (UK)

                                                       -Marvis Whitening Toothpaste (Italy)

                                                     Extra: GLOSSYBOX Blush Brush
                         I am super excited for all of my products I cannot wait for next months box.
                                              Did any of you all get this month's Glossybox?
                                                   What was your favorite thing in the box?

I'm Back

Welcome to a new and inspired blog! I know I have been M.I.A. but I have a good excuse, I graduated from college and got my BSW. Now that I have spare time I have been reading other blogs and it has made me miss my own blog. I wanted this post to be light and not too heavy, so here are my top three favorite things at the moment. Then I will talk a little bit about how I feel being a college graduate :)

1) My navy toms in classic. How did I just buy a pair?

2) My arm candy (BaubleBar, F21 pearl and India bangle)

3) My new re-vamped board that hangs on top of my desk. (Pictures from DC, Old family pics and other keepsakes)

Just looking at these things make me happy considering that I am freaking out about getting a job. Long story short I applied, had a interview and I should be hearing back if I got the job or not tomorrow. Ahhh I am a nervous reck and I need to vent, SORRY. Being a college graduate should be something that you normally would feel great, but at least for me it has made me realize that I lack hobbies and have too much time on my hands. People keep telling me that all of that will change once I get a job, but but I would rather have a job and no time at all so I feel sane. I'm just a control freak and need things that occupy my time. How do you all deal with extra time (okay, not many people don't have spare time but humor me) Hasta Pronto, Michelle

New Year: New Beginnings

I feel like I have neglected this part of my life.
Writing has never really been something I feel I am good at.
So I find it funny that I have this Blog.

Well I wanted to let everyone that cares :D
That on Jan 8th I will be going to Washington, DC to finish up
my last semester as a undergraduate student YAY!
I will be doing my practicum in a vibrant yet foreign city.
I will embark on this new experience with two suite cases and a box
and hope that this experience will make me a better person
and help my professional career.

In case you didn't know I am getting my BSW (Bachelors in Social Work)
I know DC is going to teach me things I cannot learn
in where I am.
I can only hope that I don't loose the energy and drive that I am taking.

So what does this mean for my youtube and my blog...
Good question.
I guess I will try to post videos on youtube and blog about my adventures.
I hope you all can come on this wonderful adventure with me

Much love,
-Nyrmirez (Michelle)

Sephora: Give Me Some Lip Kit

Recently I went into Sephora and I found this little lip kit
that I thought would be perfect to add to my collection.

This kit includes:
-Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick in Celebutard (0.042 oz)
-Lancome Juicy Tube Jelly in Rasberry Ice (0.33 fl oz)
-Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Polish in Leslie (0.07 fl oz)
-Smashbox Lip enhancing Gloss in Fame (0.14 fl oz)
-Tarte Lipsurgence Natural Lip tint in Moody (0.05 oz)
-Benefit Benetint Lip & Cheek Stain (0.13 fl oz)

You can purchase this online or at your local Sephora

As you can see you get six fairly decent size products for $25.00

Benefits Benetint
is a red/dark pink cheek and lip stain that gives you a nice natural flush on your cheeks and lips. This is such a great product to use on a daily basis or under a red lipstick.

Buxom Big & Healthy Lip Polish
is a light pink plumping gloss with shimmer. You can definitively feel the plumping kick in as soon as you apply it. It gives you the most weird tingle and smells very sweet.

Smashbox Lip Enhancing Gloss
is a very noticeable pink. It goes on a little bit muted from what it appears but it still gives you enough color to have nice pink lips. This gloss has very subtle shimmers and it does not have any special smell to it.

Lancome Juicy Tube Jelly
is a very shimmery light pink gloss. This gloss definitely does not shy away from the glitter in the light it will instantly make your lips look shimmery and a bit fuller. The best part it smells like Raspberry.

Tarte Lipsurgence Natural Lip Tint
is a very build able dark red lip color. Depending on how red/dark you want to go you can use this lip crayon to make it happen. It gives you a shiny lip color and it is very hydrating.

Kat Von D Painted Love Lipstick
is a very nude lipstick. A little bit too nude for my skin tone. It makes me look dead. I have worn this with Lancome's juicy tube over it for a more light pink look and love it. If you aren;t someone that has luck with nude shades this might be a hit or a miss. The texture is very creamy and does not apply sheer at all, you can actually see the color.

Uno, Dos, Tres

I have decided to do a weekly post on three things that make me happy.
So starting off I have been obsessed with Nutella hot chocolate.

Second is my glass bowl that I keep my rings in. All the colors look beautiful.

Third thing would have to be my nails I did a modern twist on a classic The french manicure

Hopefully you enjoy this post and I hope to do these every week :D

Haul Time: Naked Palette

So I recently picked up a product I have been lusting over.
I finally got my hands on it!
It's the infamous Naked Palette.
One of the biggest things that kept me from purchasing it was the price a lovely $48.
I just couldn't justify that amount of money but I caved and I bought it :)
I am in LOVE with it! Here are a few pictures so you can share in my joy.

Nail Of the Week: Hazel by Petites

I wanted to share the nail color of this week. I was shopping at Walmart and I found this cool multi-toned polish for a mere $1.34. I am huge fan of Petites nail polish and think this is a great color for fall/winter.

what do you think?
