review: theBalm Put a Lid On It Eyelid Primer

For Christmas I got a sample of theBalm's Put a Lid On It Eyelid Primer. When I misplaced my Laura Gellar Waterproof Eye Spackle (oops!), I started using this primer. I had never used a primer before this past year, but I have found now that I can hardly go without one. It improves the staying power and color payoff so much. Personally, I find that my eyelids are prone to crease throughout the day. This usually happens between 3-5 hours I would say.


purchase full size here!
I really love this primer. The actual product has a beige-y tinge to it but once you smooth it onto your eyelids, it goes on clear. I've found that the staying power of this primer is about 6-8 hours. I think this is a great amount of time and can guarantee that it will last throughout the school/work day.

The only downside to this product is that I found, when applied to sensitive/dry eyes, it tends to sting a little. For a while I was having an issue with my eyes watering which in turn caused my lids and outer corners to be a little dry and irritated. If you don't have a problem with dry/irritated eyelids then I highly recommend this product.

Hope this helps!

Happy Easter!

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter filled with family, fun, and lots of love. Never forget that it was Jesus who was raised again to save us from all of our sins. With that in mind here is a verse for today:
Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here; see my hands. Reach out your hand and put it into my side. Stop doubting and believe.” - John 20: 26b-27
 
And finally, a few Spring-y pictures!

Have a lovely Easter!

monday blues

I don't know if any of you lovely people out there experience the Monday blues, but I definitely have a case of them today. I am going to give a few of my remedies when you get some of those Monday blues.

•  Take a warm shower/bath. As someone who loves beauty, hair care, etc. I recommend pulling out some of your favorite bath items such as bath bombs, your favorite shampoo/hair mask, or a new product you haven't gotten to try out yet.
•  Make it into a spa (or pamper) night. For some awesome ideas click here. 
  A face mask is a great way to relax and feel refreshed after a hard day.
•  You could give your feet a good soak as well.
•  Snuggle up in your favorite blanket, wearing your best pajamas and watch your favorite TV show/movie.
•  Make yourself a cup of tea/coffee/cider and your favorite snack and just RELAX!


   These are just a few ideas for you guys to try out that I love doing. Somethings will be better than others, depending on the person.

Love you guys!
