Magnificent Makeup by Mia Mariu

TANGO  Mia Mariu is a wonderful Botanical Skin Care company. They produce some of the finest cosmetics and skin care products I have seen in a long while. I received these two Hydrating Stick Glosses for review, as well as their Refreshing Foaming Gel Cleanser. The first is Tango , which is a lovely red sheer color. The thing I love most about the Hydrating Stick Glosses is they they provide a bit of color, but feel smooth and are non-sticky, unlike many lipsticks.  I also received Beso as seen below, which is an amazing sheer pink color.

Review - Zebra Pens

I can't tell you how many times my fingers have gotten sore with long hours working on school work or writing up reports for work. With the extra large rubber grip on this pen, that's no longer a worry ! I also really liked the Zebra Zmulsion EX Ballpoint Pen . The greatest thing about this pen is the in

Because you know, I gots to keep you updated on what's happening during my summer !    Hubs & I found this awesome cupcake place in Round Rock called Be My Cupcake . I think I may officially be obsessed with these cupcakes. They put a ton of icing on the top just like most cupcake places, but the best part about this place is that the icing isn't too sweet, so you really don't mind so much of it. The cake part is always moist and rather dense, just so yummy. I'm no food reviewer, but if I were, I'd give these cupcakes a 4.5 !  Hubs also bought & built me this awesome little Ikea nightstand last week. I've been needing something for the other side of the bed for setting things on.     I also won this awesome Monster Blanket from Berkshire Blankets . I love it, it's super cute & soft, which is always number 1 with me. Sailor got a harness from one of our Twitter friends, Rachel. It fits him perfectly & he's a
