Love My Bobble


Love My Bobble


I am so thrilled with the invention of the bobble. I recently bought this for my husband as part of his valentine's day gift when I was rummaging around vitamin shoppe picking up manly things like protein bars/ supplements and things of that nature. I saw this bottle and thought that whoever came up with it was so smart. Seriously, I absolutely dread filling my brita and putting it in the fridge every five minutes. This, I can actually carry with me in my car all day while I'm driving around for work and fill it up wherever I am and know that my water is pure and filtered. According to the company that makes it bobble is PVC and BPA free, the filter is a carbon filter, and it removes chorine and organic contaminants from your drinking water. Every filter equates to 300 single serve bottles. After a year of using this, you've removed thousands of bottles from the environment simply by filtering water from your tap. It is intended for municipal tap water though, so don't be drinking pond water with this! ;)Buy it here

And Ps. yes, I confiscated the gift I bought my husband...lol.
Ps.s...this has to do with beauty becauuuuuuse drinking a lot of water is SO good for keeping your skin hydrated!

Have a Good Eyelash Day Every Day


Have a Good Eyelash Day Every Day



Have you ever had a bad eyelash day? It's kind of the same thing as a bad hair day, except in my opinion, worse. People spend more time looking at your eyes than your hair when conversing, so if your eyelashes are clumped together and look amiss, it tends to be more noticeable! This little lash-brow groomer from Real Techniques(which you can buy at Ulta or here) is something I never thought I needed or could use. I tried it just recently when I bought the entire Real Techniques collection after having good luck w/ the stippling brush. I have had a lot of bad eyelash days on certain days when trying out new mascaras; this little tool will really help to correct any of that. If you find that your mascara went on WAY too clumpy, you can simply use the comb edge of the tool to gently brush either upwards(although it tends to smear the mascara on your eyelid, or downwards from above the eyelashes(which is my preferred way of using it). This will get rid of any of those unwanted clumps. After brushing them out, I have put another few coats and repeated the step of brushing the eyelashes out, and it seems to work great. Just don't brush them out when the mascara has totally hardened, this could break the eyelashes. I do it when it's halfway dry. (I am wearing covergirl lashblast volume mascara in this picture). Either way, I highly recommend this tool. I think it's only 5.99$ at Ulta.
