Happy New Years Eve (eve)! 
Wow.. I can't believe 2015 is coming to an end soon and 2016 is just the next next day! I've partnered up with Fred Meyer to bring you guys an eye makeup tutorial that's perfect for the NYE celebration! I used the L'oreal LA Palette Nude Intense to help achieve this smokey eye look that's super easy. I used five out of the total ten colors and just a few tools. Hopefully my step-by-step above is easy to follow along. This is the first time I've done it this way and major props to the YouTube beauty gurus that does this all the time. It wasn't as easy to capture what I wanted to showcase. Hopefully in 2016 I will be able to do more of these so I can get the hang of it! :)

With it being exactly ten days away, it's about that time to hurry up and get those Christmas gifts for your loved ones. A great option for anyone who loves jewelry are these adorable holiday charms from Soufeel which is very similar to Pandora. One thing great is Soufeel has all their selection online so it's easier to see and select. The quality is really nice and they have a wide selection to choose from! I got to choose three holiday charms (including the sterling silver bracelet) so I went with the Santa Sleigh with Reindeer, Christmas Penguin, and Santa Claus House! Christmas is one of my favorite time of the year so anything that commerates it..just makes me so happy! So hurry up and stock up on these charms and give them as gifts. There's still time left. :)

Lindi Skin

Happy Friday!
Today I'm reviewing some products that was sent to me by Lindi Skin. I had never heard of this brand prior to receiving these products and after reading into it. They're known to develop luxurious skincare products for people with compromised or sensitive skin. Their skincare line is also clinically-proven to be safe and gentle. They had sent me their lip balm, face wash, and face moisturizer to try out. And for myself, I have sensitive skin so I was thrilled to give this a try. Giving each product a try for a week, safe to say I haven't broken out (which is a good sign). The face wash didn't strip my skin down and the face moisturizer quickly absorbed without that nasty greasy feeling. I would say the lip balm was probably the best out of the three due to the crazy cold weather we've been having. My lips tends to try out quickly and I needed to prevent from cracking. This lip balm did the trick! :)

Happy Tuesday!

Most of the time the Hubs is the one behind the camera so it was nice that he was able to join me for this "His & Her" holiday style featuring JORD, who makes these beautiful wood watches. I've partnered up with them a few times in the past and this time, I was able to pick two watches, one for myself and another to give away as a gift. And of course that gift went to the Hubs for all the hard work he puts into this blog with me! :) 

I chose the Maple and Silver color from their Cora series just because I don't have anything like it. It's so pretty and unique! The Hubs was really into their 94A series because of how cool it looked plus he always had his eye on a brown watch. Both are handcrafted with great details and quality! Now, onto the fun part of this post, I've partnered with JORD to giveaway a limited quantity of e-gift cards worth $25 each for the holidays! If you've had your eye on one of these lovely wood watches, be sure to enter to get in on the savings, tis the season!

Happy Thursday!

Layers are a must when it comes to Fall/Winter. Beanies are also a must and of course having double poms that represents a bear doesn't hurt either. ;) I've gotten so many compliments when I wear it out and my cute little niece gets distracted by them. haha.. I received this top recently from Lurap (Love-UR-APpearance) which is a clothing company that offers items that can be custom sized to fit you exactly how you like it. They have a sizing chart that's simple to utilize and they have a wide varity of items to choose from! I went with this black hi-low top that I gotten the sleeves shorten (thanks to my short arms) and everything else I kept the standard size. Make sure you size it correctly before ordering! They are able to change the length, take a little here and there.. all for you. ;)

Smile Brilliant

Home Remedies For Teeth Whitening

Tray Creation Kit: includes the Catalyst paste and Base paste with the mouth guards to create your molds. Plus instructions and a prepaid shipping envelope to send your molds back to their lab.

Steps of how to create the paste for your teeth molds. Combine the Catalyst paste and Base paste together.

Once your teeth molds are created, you will send them back in for the labs to create your actual trays.

(disclaimer: they sent me back our actual clay molds which typically isn't included, this is just for photos!)

The trays takes only a few weeks to make and they ship them to you. They're clear and fits perfectly!

In the kit, you will get tubes of teeth whitening gel and desensitizing gel. It helps when you have sensitive teeth like me! 

The trays fitted perfectly to both of our teeth with just enough space for the gels. :)

Happy Tuesday!

This post is long over-due. It has taken me about a month to put this review and post together considering on trying out the product thoroughly. Smile Brilliant had reached out to me to see if I would give their teeth whitening kit a try. They were happy to supply enough for the Hubs and I to both try it out and experience it together. :) 

The tray creation kit itself came with all the supplies to create your teeth molds. Along with instructions on how to, which is very simple and easy to follow! Once your molds are created, you simply ship them back in a prepaid shipping envelope that they've included. It goes straight to their labs where they use your molds to produce the trays! It takes only a few weeks and voila! You are ready to whiten your teeth! Now, I must note that I used to whiten my teeth with the Crest whitening strips ever since I was in high school. And I also use whitening toothpaste plus mouthwash on the daily so my teeth are pretty pearly already. But it didn't hurt to give it a try still! I actually think Smile Brilliant's process of whitening is much easier and convenient as the trays are molded to your teeth. So there wasn't any slipping (like the strips) and it'll get into every cracks! And since these are custom-fitted trays, Smile Brilliant offers them at a very decent price compared to dentists who will charge $500+ for similar product. 

As you can see on my Before and After photos (above), after using it for a few weeks.. my teeth are still pretty pearly and not a HUGE difference but I def feel that it's whitened a shade up. The Hubs said the same for him and he even slept with the trays on a few nights! I usually leave it on for only 30 mins or less depending on my mood. The trays are easy to clean and the tubes are easy to apply the gels.
