May Favorites

I cannot believe it is almost June! I am personally excited because that means we are one month closer to my baby niece being born and our mini vacation this month. One of my best blogger friends gets married in the month of June too, and I cannot wait to see the pictures Macy!

I had some new favorites this month that I wanted to share, beauty/skincare and one random favorite of the month.

Clinique Moisture Surge | I am obsessed. Although a little pricey, and I did only buy the mini - it has lasted me all month and I haven't even put a dent in it. A little goes a long way with this product and it has made my dry skin so happy this past month. I use it once a day in the morning before my makeup, I will definitely be repurchasing this one.

L'Oreal Paris True Match Lumi Foundation | This goes along with me having dry skin. I love any product that will give me a natural looking glow. I apply this with my beauty blender and it is medium coverage with one application. I would recommend if you have drier skin like I do.

CoverGirl Super Sizer Mascara* | I was sent this product just to try out, and it instantly became a favorite for me. I was in love with the CoverGirl Lash Perfection mascara, and since it has been discontinued this is my new favorite from the brand.

NYX HD Concealer | I cannot say enough good things about this concealer. It gives amazing coverage and brings a lot of light to my under eye area. It's less than five bucks at Ulta too, so you can't beat that.

Essie "Blossom Dandy" | Definitely my favorite nail polish of the month. I cannot stop painting my nails this color. Joe tried to say that I already had this color, but I think he just meant that I have a ton of turquoise/blue polishes which I do but this one is so so pretty.

Simple Cleansing Micellar Water | I picked up this product toward the end of the month because I've heard so many good things about it. I've never felt the need to spend a ton of money on the Bioderma water, so when I saw that my favorite skincare brand came out with one I had to try it. I use this product every morning before I do my moisturizer and at night after I take off my eye makeup.

My random favorite of the month has got to be my FitBit. I've actually been using this everyday and committing to setting goals and trying to achieve them. It's sometimes really hard to get in my steps sitting in a cubicle so this really holds me accountable.



All products were purchased with my own money unless stated above, all opinions are my own.

Top Five Essie Polishes For Fall!

Essie by vivianstonee featuring Essie

Hello Everyone!

Today I thought I would share my top five favorite Essie nail polishes for the fall time! I can for sure say that Essie is my all time favorite nail polish brand! I am constantly looking out for their new seasonal collections and feel the need to go out and buy them right away! Here are some of my favorites for this 2013 fall season!!



1. For The Twill Of It - I currently have this polish on my nails and toes, and I am obsessed with this color! I love the darker polishes for fall and I love it because it has different dimensions to the color so it really pops when the light hits it!


2. Bahama Mama - I feel like this color is a staple to fall nail polishes! It is a beautiful wine/purple-ish color. So so pretty!

3.  Vested Intrest - When I first saw this color I wasn't so sure about the color for fall, but after seeing it on the nails I was sold! 

4. The Lace Is On- I am in love with wine and magenta colors in the colder months, and this is absolutely the prettiest color, it has some shimmer which makes it really stand out.

5. Midnight Cami - This polish is a deep, dark color which I love. I think it is perfect for fall because its not your typical black or brown yet it still has color and is a change from all of the pastel and neons I have been wearing all summer! 


So there are some of my favorite fall polishes..Fall is my favorite season and I cannot wait to share more fall favorite or fall inspired blog posts and videos!
