Drug Store Review: Jordana Cosmetics

So, I was at Walgreen's a week or two ago and noticed they were having a clearance sale on some Jordana products. I had tried products from this company years ago and they weren't that good but I thought 'Hey, Wet N Wild weren't always that grand either so maybe these have improved too.' And at $0.50 each, I could not pass up giving them a try.

It's been too long...

Alright, so I haven't been around even though I've wanted to but it's not my fault. I had lost my camera and it turns out that my dad had it and was using it for work. Now we're gonna share and I'll be back to doing posts. 


As a side note I'll be starting cosmetology school mid September so I'll actually be able to give 'professional' tips and advise coming up soon. {Super excited!}

Snatch and Release

A bit of an update:
To be honest I was thinking about deleting this blog. I hadn't been posting regularly and I just found it to be a hassle sometimes trying to come up with looks. Alas I chose not to delete. But I did change things up a bit, the name and url is different. I didn't like the one I had because when I created this blog I had to choose one on the spot and that was it. My name on youtube is Moxy so I decided to change this to reflect that because I'm thinking about doing picture slide shows for youtube. If I do that they'll be easy to connect and if I don't then that's fine. Any how, on to the look!!


There has been a tremendous amount of snow across the US lately and in Colorado we sure have been hit hard. Even though I love the snow it's been making me wish for spring so I did this look to get in the mood. One of my new favorite eye shadows is Snatch from Urban Decay and I just love the way it looks with the other colors. Now I think I speak for many of us Americans when I say 'PLEASE LET IT BE SPRING ALREADY!!!'
