Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Spray: Review

Hello, Everyone!

It's so nice and sunny here and I hope it is where you are from too!

Because it's so nice outside today, I thought I would share my thoughts on the Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Texturizing Spray!

I found this at Target for around 5 dollars.

What I do:

I basically spray it on air-dried hair and tousle it a bit with my fingers. (you can also spray on damp hair as well) This makes it look very beachy, but if I want more definition, sometimes I put a few defined waves in it with a curling iron.  I'll show you both looks!

What I like:

• Inexpensive
• Adds texture without totally drying out my hair
• It makes my hair smell tropical
• Truly looks like I just came from the beach

What I don't like:

• Is it just me or is the Not Your Mother's brand hard to find?

Today with just air-dried hair and Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Spray

(When I was reporting) Air-dried with Not Your Mother's Beach Babe Spray and Defined Waves with a curling iron. 

I recommend this stuff completely.  It's inexpensive and doesn't dry out my hair while still creating that "beach-like" texture!  Just in time for the summer months!

 

Do you have any beach sprays I should try?

March Favorites!!

Hi All!!

I can't believe March has already come and gone which means 4 more weeks until I am done at college.... I don't know whether to be scared or excited.... both maybe?

Anyways, the end of March means MARCH FAVORITES!

I love "favorites" posts because I love to know what others have been loving over the course of the month!

My Favorites for this month:

• Elf Powder Brush: This brush is one of my favorites if not my absolute favorite brush to apply liquid foundation.  It's a flat-top kabuki brush that really buffs in my liquid foundation quite nicely! My foundation looks *flawless* when I use this brush.  AND, it's a mere 3 bucks.  3 BUCKS?!  If you haven't tried it, you better run to Target and pick this one up!
• Jordana Fabuliner: This stuff is great, it's so easy to work with because it's in "pen" form. I have been loving the winged-liner look lately and this is perfect to achieve this specific look! It's also only 3 dollars at Walgreens! Total beauty steal! To see my Lauren Conrad inspired look click this link!
• Benefit Watt's Up: I love this highlighter so much! It's the perfect champagne-gold color that just lights up my face! I like to use it on my cheekbones, bridge of my nose, and the cupid's bow! I also like to set it with Wet 'N' Wild's Reserve my Cabana Coloricon Bronzer.  It adds the perfect glow to my face.
• Mac Naked Lunch Eyeshadow: Like I said earlier, I have been loving the winged-liner look, in which I love to pair it with a very natural eye.  I have been loving Mac's Naked Lunch for this.  It's a champagne-pink color that makes it look like the "my eyes but better" look.  So, it's the perfect pair to my winged-liner love affair. 
• Benefit Coralista: This blush is perfect for the spring and summer months.  It adds a pop of coral to my cheeks! I look super glowy when I am wearing this blush! It adds the perfect coral sheen to my cheeks and really is perfect for these warmer months, Not to mention the uber cute packaging! ;)
• Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Lip Stain in Honey: I think I'm the last person on Earth to try these babies out and I have no idea why.  But, I am so glad I finally picked some up! I absolutely love the shade honey.  It starts off as a my lips but better shade and the stain leaves a slightly brighter pink shade on me.  I absolutely am in LOVE with this specific lip product!
• Hard Candy Glamoflauge: This is the perfect drugstore concealer! I love it so much because it covers my breakouts and scarring perfectly and it is only 6 dollars at Walmart.  It definitely reminds me of the Amazing Cosmetics Concealer and honestly, I find myself reaching for Glamoflauge much more!
• Revlon Colorstay Foundation in Normal/Dry: I know many people love and swear by this foundation in the Oily/Combo formula, but I urge you to try this formulation as well! I like it much better than the one for Oily skin! It applies much better and sets better on my skin! I am absolutely loving this foundation!

 

What are your favorites for the month?
