Surprise Box from Forever Equal Hobbies

Today was a day of Happy Mail!!! One of my packages I received was a big box from Yaarii at Forever Equal Hobbies. Forever Equal Hobbies is a cool Facebook page where we share DIY's, talk about our sugar gliders and other furry babies, and some amazing vendors have some of the neatest products for sale. Yaarii posted an invite contest and the prize was one of her My Pet and I Care boxes. The My Pet and I Care box can be found Here at the Forever Equal Hobbies Shop. You get to pick your box size, Pet type, and your Pet gender. My daughter wants one of the Suggie Care Boxes. Here are some photos of my box for a boy dog and then I encourage ya'll to click on my YouTube video and enjoy the unboxing with me. Yaarii really made my box personalized and it really made me feel special. I loved the little details she put into the box like the decorated box flaps and the personalized card. It was altogether a nice treat and wonderful happy mail. I highly recommend you check out here products and place an order!! P.S. I'm eating the chocolate as I write this blog and edit the video :-) P.P.S. The nail polish does smell like pineapples when it dries :-D

A Box Full of Surprises!!

My table was covered with Awesome Treats!!!

Here is the full unboxing video:

Hydrate and Prime

I have never used primer before. I'm old school where we put our foundation and then concealer and then powder. The concept of primer certainly intrigued me. I have a certain YouTube beauty personality that I love to watch. She does show e.l.f. products quite often. one of these products was the e.l.f. Hydrating Face Primer. I decided to go ahead and order this primer as she gave it a glowing review and we both have similar skin types. It was only $6 online. I was so happy with the price. The product itself is in a beautiful sea green glass bottle with a pump and lid. It matched the colors in my bathroom and was more sanitary than some of the other packaging of other products I have looked at. 

I watched many videos on the proper way to use primer and practiced til I perfected it. I love this primer! I sometimes actually use this without wearing any foundation because it makes my face feel so yummy. I have very dry skin and I moisturize, but my thirsty face loves this primer. It gives my face a dose of hydration while smoothing out all the imperfections and creating a flawless palette for my foundation. When I laid my foundation out over this I was amazed at how much smoother everything appeared and how much longer everything lasted. My makeup certainly didn't melt at all. It was a workout getting everything off at night though. 

The only downfall I would say this product might have, and to me it wasn't really a downfall, it does come across as a little oily feeling at first until it settles. Overall I am truly pleased with this product and I would highly recommend it to others. I will be repurchasing this primer again very soon.

e.l.f. love

So I was relaxing yesterday morning when all of a sudden I get a knock at the front door. It was the mail lady with a package. I love when I get packages but I wasn't expecting anything so I was perplexed. To my surprise the package was from Elf Cosmetics. I thought long and hard about whether or not I had placed another order. I was sure I hadn't. I asked my boyfriend if he had ordered me something. He said nope. I opened the box and inside was a jar of e.l.f.'s Illuminating Eye Cream and the sweetest note apologizing for how long my last order took to get to me. This gift from e.l.f. truly made me feel like a valued customer. I have another order planned to make soon for some skin care products. I love the eye cream and used up all of the sample I was sent previously. I can't wait to try more of the skin care line. I love all the products I have received from e.l.f. so far and the customer service is certainly extraordinary!! Thank you so much +e.l.f. Cosmetics !!!
