wasting away again in margaritaville

wow! time has really been getting away from me recently. i cannot believe that it has been over a week since i had time to blog and i promise, this will not be come the regular! i ended up taking a VERY spur of the moment, 6 day vacation. and when i say spur of the moment, i mean i did not even have the appropriate amount of clothes packed, let alone my computer with me. i think i become more spontaneous every time summer rolls around. i know, i know, spring is around the corner for most people but for floridians, it is hitting 80 degrees every day and i think it's safe to say we are transitioning into our usual 6-month summer. yikes!

i've been home for about 4 days now and in between cooking and spending some time at the beach, my summer wish list has started to bloom. summer lovin.. had me a blast.



oh my word. i am obsessed with the essie spring 2014 collection! this has to be one of my favorite collections they have ever put out, and if you have read my previous posts you know i am a HUGE essie fan. i am especially coveting both blues, the green, the pink.. okay i really just want all of them!

what are on your summer wishlists??



current product routine

wow, the past week has been a flurry of activity and travel. it's hard to believe that it has only been 7 days since i moved back to florida from boston. in between re-acquainting myself with the glory of the beach, car rides, and searching for apartments, i have also had the added pleasure of squeezing in some sephora and ulta time. after picking up a few new products, i have put together my new make-up routine! 


eyes

1. urban decay naked eyeshadow palette
2. urban decay eyeshadow primer potion
3. stila all-day wear waterproof eyeliner in black
4. maybelline master shape eye pencil
5. maybelline 24 hour super-stay concealer
6. maybelline falsies volumizing mascara

face

1. l'oreal true match blendable foundation
2. NYC smooth skin bronzer in "sunny"
3. maybelline dream bouncy blush ***
4. benefit "high beam" highlighter

etc.

1/2. revlon matte balm stains, in both "sweetheart/valentine" and "elusive"
3. urban decay "de-slick" make up setting spray


*** i do have to say that although i still have the maybelline dream bouncy blush in my current routine, it is only because i have yet to purchase a new blush to replace it. i have been using this blush for over a year now, but honestly it is because i am not a huge proponent of using a heavy amount of blush. however, i do plan on making blush my next item to purchase after i let my wallet take a rest from the past few days.

do you have any suggestions for blushes for me to check out? opinions/questions on the items i am using currently in my routine? what are you using right now?
