Happy Frickin, Monday!

Happy Monday my fabulous Glamouritas!!! How was everyone's weekend? Mine was not as relaxing as I would have hoped BUT I did get a lot done and that's always good! Yay for spring cleaning... NOOOOT!

Anywho, last week was kind of crazy for me and now I feel so out of the loop so this is just my quick note to all saying "Wasssuuuup!!!"

Update on My Favorite Beauty Tool


I've written about this before but it's been a long time so I thought I'd update. I had fabulously clear skin as a teen. In that regard, I was the envy of many of my pimple faced peers. However, once I hit 25... everything changed. If I forget to wash my face before bed once or twice, I'll have an unwelcome surprise or two within 24 hours. It's painfully obnoxious but what can ya do!?

However, when I use my Clarisonic twice a day like I'm supposed to, my skin is clear, my tone looks more even overall, and I just look brighter and more awake. I feel like I can wear less makeup which is great for me because I tend to stay in bed for as long as possible in the mornings!!!

I will say though that it definitely ain't cheap! My brush retails for a whopping $195 from Sephora and that's for the original brush. The brush head replacements are $25.

But it's so soooo worth it!!!! The thing that got me was the woman in the store I was in who was demonstrating it when they first came out in Sephora. She was clearly in her mid-40's judging by her overall appearance.. aka... she needed a wardrobe makeover and a much more current hair style. But her face was crazy smooth and wrinkle free! So naturally, I HAD to have it! The Clarisonic Face Brush is absolute heaven!

BUDGET GLAMOUR: LA Girl Platinum Collection Dual Blush


I started my series on Budget Glamour items probably about a month ago and am JUST NOW getting to my 2nd item for review! Pathetic I know and for anyone who was excited about finding budget cosmetics that actually work, I APOLOGIZE for being such a slacker! My goal is to post my Budget Glamour reviews once a week from now on!

So getting right into it, I'm going to continue the series with the 2nd item I tried in the LA Girl cosmetic line which was their Platinum Collection Blush in Dimple/Blushing.
