Favorite Finds Friday



Every so often I find things that I just absolutely fall in LOVE with and become OBSESSED with... SO I figured I'd share my favorites (every so often on Friday's) with my favorites! :)



My two favorite things I'm posting about today, just so happen to both be products from the line of 'E.L.F.' ...








if you do not know of this brand get aquatinted!

They have different lines ranging from $1 up to $6, & available at my favorite... Target!



I've also been told they are at different stores now too, although I've yet to confirm it- I usually do most of my shopping at Target- so it's a perfect fit for myself- if you do not have a Target (I'm SO SO sorry!)
you can go here and put in your zip code and they'll locate a nearest available store for you!

OR you can just go to their website and shop!





Also, it's important, (or at least I think so) to note that E.L.F. is "cruelty free"- meaning they do not test on animals, which makes me love them even more!

  • Cruelty Free
  •  





    Okay, now onto my two new items I picked up!




    E.L.F. foundation brush {$3}
    (link)



    I was a little hesistant, but figured if it wasn't good I was only out three dollars!
    But, I am SO glad I took that huge financial risk, HA, because I absolutely LOVE this little brush!
    I feel it makes my foundation look so much better & smoother.




    Second 'favorite find' of mine, is also another E.L.F. product...

    E.L.F. HD Powder {$6}


    I'm not really sure if this one makes such a huge difference or not, BUT I do LOVE
    how soft it makes my skin feel... so for that alone is why I'm OBSESSED! :)


    *update- let me warn- a little bit goes a long way with this product! Since it's HD, it's white- and so when applying it can totally make you casper-esque if applying to much.





    HAPPY Friday & happy shopping!


    XoXo,

    Happy Mothers Day


    OR as I like to call it Mommy Day!

    for my second Mommy Day, me & Miss Priss had a girly day...
    (now, I know, that's not much different than any other day for us)
    full of movies, pancakes, pedi's, & a trip to Starbucks!


    we had a mini Audrey movie marathon with,
    Roman Holiday, Sabrina, &, of course, Breakfast at Tiffany's



    Chocolate Chip Pancakes with Strawberries & Whipped Cream


    Miss Priss helped... with the chocolate chips...
    (and when I say "helped" I mean ate them)




    after our pancakes and into our third and final Audrey movie,
    Sabrina, we did some pampering...

    got into our robes



    and slippers...





    'Yoo-hoo' CHEERS!


    matching hot PINK toes!


    and then it was time for 'happy hour' at Starbucks for frapps...

    I had us matching...





    even our shoes too...








    Miss Priss is one HAPPY girl when she gets her 'Double Chocolately Chip frapp'!



    even our frapps match! :)


    and then it was time to make CUPCAKES!

    so we got into our matching aprons, that Nonna got for us last Easter...






    Miss Priss mixing the mix








    and then after all that hard work at making those sweet and fabulous pink cupcakes, without needing the Firefighters assistance, :)
    it was was time for dinner...  and with it being 'Mommy Day' and all, I opted for an easy meal that both me and Prissy Pants LOVE...
    PASTA!

    BUT first, I put on one of my newest little aprons...


    it reads: "Will Cook For Shoes"
    InstaGram decided it wanted to cut off the 'Shoes' part, so it did!







    and then Miss Priss watched a few of her shows
    and then it was time for her bedtime...

    & then it was MOMMY TIME!

    so I poured myself a glass of white wine, & had a cupcake (or 2, possibly 3)
    and watched my shows!
    ('The Client List', 'The Real Housewives of NJ', & 'Desperate Houswives' too)



    I HOPE every Mommy had a fabulous day!

    The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.
    She never existed before.
    The woman existed, but the mother, never.
    A mother is something absolutely new. ♥






    Hello Hello!



    SORRY for disappearing, yet again!

    I am BACK, & ready to play catch up...

    so sit back and catch up with me! :)


    I'm currently waiting for my new favorite show,
    The Client List, with Jennifer Love Hewitt, to come on and I'm splurging with a glass of wine and strawberry cupcake!


     Me and Miss Priss made cupcakes today... I'll be posting all of that following this post- promise!

    Okay off blogging I go!

    Friday Night MOVIE Night





    While out shopping for a few must-needed things
    (milk, diapers, etc.)
    We came across movies for $5 (LOVE when they do those)
    And Miss Priss, of course, found the only "Yo Gabba Gabba" DVD
    and right next to it, candy- SO I decided we would make it into a "Movie Night" that night, & that's just what we did! :)
    We used to do this almost every Friday night, but it had been a while-
    so it was nice to bring it back!
    



    I also picked up a make-it-yourself pizza,
     & wine for me
     (hey, it's my juice like hers!) :)
    and we had a fun little movie night... which consisted of watching 3 movies
    (3 movies in about 1 hour or so)
     and ending it with her "YGG" one... (which she fell asleep to)
     my 2-year-old has a bit of A.D.D. I do believe...

    We started off watching a Barbie movie the "Charm School" one or whatever it is called- which is very very cute- Mommy doesn't mind watching it, (all of it)
    and then next it was "Horton Hears a Who" (which lasted for  maybe 25-30 minutes)
    THEN next up, it was "Pocahontas" which didn't even last 10 minutes!



    HOPE you all had a fun-filled Friday night as well!
