At Night

This blog has basically gone completely off the rails. I don't post every Wednesday (no good excuse for this to be honest), and I hardly review anything (I'm too poor to try out new stuff at the moment).

Whatever! Guess I'll just wing it and hope for the best.

As I write this it is a little past 1:30 AM and I'm waiting for my second batch of peanut butter cookies to come out of the oven. Yep, my sleep schedule is as messed up as my ability to blog. You're shocked, I know. Being an "adult" is pretty great though. I used to lay in bed awake and wish that I could get out of bed and bake whenever and NOW I CAN!! There's just something really cool about baking

Also, this is only the second time I've used my new Ice Blue KitchenAid!! Shoutout to my mother for this graduation gift, you're the best EVER. So I guess I actually will be reviewing something!!

Ok. Bad news first. The bowl is kinda small (I should've anticipated this and gotten a bigger one so it's my fault), the attachments are kinda cheaply made in my opinion and I don't foresee them lasting long term very well, and even with just peanut butter cookie dough it seemed very hard on the machine. This is just a personal preference, but I wish the bowl itself had a handle, but to be honest it looks better without one.

Now for the good news: I love the color, it's cute. Not a useful or practical attribute, I know. But what can I say, I'm easy to please and gosh dang it does look cute on my counter. And as much as I complain, it gets the job done.

I don't even really like peanut butter cookies, but I didn't have any chocolate so this was the only option on short notice. My brain has been a little fried lately with stress, I've been reading A LOT of great stuff (it is definitely a brain workout), and it's finally cooling off outside enough to turn an oven on. Since baking is usually my favorite way of de-stressing, I couldn't resist. I get to make a mess, I make delicious (most of the time anyways) treats, and I get to be in control. It helps.

That's all for tonight!

No7 Dual Action Tinted Moisturiser

I am starting to realize that I shop at Target A LOT, haha! Not surprisingly, I bought this product at Target too! I also went to Chipotle and had an amazing burrito, despite the weird couple next to me getting in a fight because he never listens (he forgot to get extra guacamole). I'm getting off topic! ok! So, this tinted moisturiser has been very good for me, because I do tend to keep my makeup more natural and soft looking. It won't be perfect for everyone, but for the look I'm going for it is! It is very sheer, but has pretty good coverage. I also don't need a lot of it for it to look nice, so it'll last me ages. It does have SPF 15, which I don't really care one way or the other about, but I thought I'd mention it in case you guys care about that in your makeup. Since my skin is a bit sensitive, I have to be careful about what I use on it. This tinted moisturiser hasn't left my skin feeling irritated or made it break out,  which makes sense since it is Hypo-allergenic. The only thing I would say is, is that if you do have skin that is quite blemished or you need something that will even out your skin tone, maybe go with something more heavy duty as it is very sheer.

I rate this product: Love It!

Expert Anti-Blemish 2 in 1 Scrub and Mask

Hello everybody! For my first post, I'll write about something I love! I have such a hard time finding good skin care products because I have had sensitive skin from the time I was born. Everything I’ve tried has either been too harsh, too oily, or just plain useless. A few weeks ago I went to Target in search of the perfect face wash and finally found it!! Since I’m no expert in face washes and not really in the position to just buy tons of different ones and try them all, I had to take the word of the nicest make up salesman I have ever met! If you’re ever at the Target in federal way, ask for Robert. He’ll help you find the perfect product. He suggested this product to me and I couldn’t be happier! It’s called Expert Anti-Blemish 2 in 1 Scrub and Mask. When I bought it, it was $5.99 and worth every penny! I use it every time I shower, since I’m way too messy to try and was my face over the sink. My skin feels amazing and has cleared up almost completely!

I rate this product: Love It!
