Babbling Wednesday - What's your makeup routine

Today I decided to blog a little about everything :)

Yesterday I tackled the baby clothes pile :) Getting all the baby clothes and blankies all washed up! I even counted all outfits so I know what else I need. The little outfits are too cute!


Look what I got! Check out http://www.clippo.ca/  This is so cute and what a awesome idea! You can snap on and clip on whatever you like, like blankies to the car seat or toys to your little one.  Can't wait to use it! Thanks Clippo!

 

 New purchase... DREAM! Never forget your DREAMS!

Bought this at Winners. Perfect for me!

 I won an award this week too! A Stylish Blogger Award! Thanks http://kyootycenter.blogspot.com/

A couple blogger friends have been writing about makeup , so I decided to post my makeup routine too!

Over at http://www.savanahsmiles.com/2011/08/savanahs-favorites-makeup-edition.html
She suggested Maybelline Falsies Mascara in Black ... So far I love it! Thanks girl! Check out her other suggestions.

Patty over at http://adayinmynyc.com/2011/08/22/not-that-girl/
Blogged about if you have a makeup routine or not. Check it out.

So as you see my picture above.... that's my makeup routine haha! Give or take depending on the day.

So my routine:
Nivea Q10 day cream
Maybelline  (Instant Age Rewind foundation) (I only dab a bit on cheeks)
Loreal visible lift concealer (I appeal to under eyes and eyelids)
Physicians formula loose powder (full face)
Physicians formula Bronzer (cheeks and nose :)
Eyelash curler (a must!)
Eyeshadow  (day to day I wear a champagne color)
Black eyeliner (thin or thick, again depending on the day)
Mascara

For lipstick I use Lise Waiter matte neutral color or Lise Waiter gloss. But most the time I don't have anything on my lips. 

Seems like a lot, but it really isn't.  It only takes me about 5 mins to apply it all. I've been doing this same routine for years! Can't even remember when I started haha!

In the evenings I remove makeup with baby oil and apply Nivea Q10 night cream.

What's your routine??

TAG I'm IT

New bloggy friend http://marlieandmommy.blogspot.com/

just tagged me to participate in this fun game.

The rules of this tag are that I must describe seven things about me that you don’t already know and then tag­ seven oth­ers to do the same.

I think I may have mentioned some of these things before not sure, I will try and think of new things I haven’t mentioned.;) Am I the only one that finds these games really hard to do??

OK 7 things I don't think I ever mentioned on my blog... hmm...

1. My 2 front teeth are veneers, Got hit by a flying rock(aka 13 year old boy throwing rocks and I was in the way)

2. I have a tattoo that I got after my dad passed, its sentimental but I’m not really into tattoos and it reminds me of a crazy time in my life, soo I’m considering getting It removed. (personal choice, I have nothing against tattoo’s ;)

3.The one thing that made me smile even harder than anything at my wedding was my wedding cake… oh wait, that's not something new ahah is it weird that anything with food makes me happy.. It was strawberry shortcake inside mmm mmm

4.I type with 1 hand. Trying to break the habit. I can use both but feels so uncomfortable, so I stick to 1.

5. I still have 4 of my childhood diaries.

6. I always straighten my hair, even if I put it in a pony tail. ahah

7. Ive had 2 operations, removed a cyst on my hand at 12 and my tonsils at 14.

Good thing it was just 7, took me a while to think of things! ahha!

Below are 7 new bloggy friends, check them out!

Lovely Blog Award!

Today I received another AWARD actually 2 in 1! The "One Lovely Blog Award" from Tori over at 3 girls and a guy

Thank you so much! We recently found each others blogs and I truly enjoy reading her daily writing!

The rules of the "One Lovely Blog Award" are:

Accept the award, post it on your blog together with the name of the person who has granted the award, and his or her blog link. Pass the award to 15 other blogs that you’ve newly discovered. Remember to contact the bloggers to let them know they have been chosen for this award.

She also awarded me with the new Friends award.



Frugal Mom knows best awarded Tori with these awards so I copied her words below because she says it best! "This award is bestowed on to blogs that are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose six more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award. Since this blog is has the same rules as the previous, I am using the same fifteen! "

15 was hard to choose because I enjoy all the blogs I read ;) so if you come across my blog today I grant you these awards automatically! So feel free to accept these awards!! :)
