When April ended I was shocked because it went SO FAST and it seems like no time passed at all since my last (and first) Hits & Misses video! I will definitely have to get used to keeping track of the products I've been trying each month so I feel more prepared next time. ^_^;;;

This month I have a lot of skincare goodies that I love so that will be nice for the people who have been asking for an updated skincare routine. I may have to record an actual skincare routine update soon because it has changed a little bit for the Spring weather. Anyway, I go over that more in the video.


Products mentioned:
Cargo Blu-ray HD powder in shade 20
Revlon CustomEyes Palette in 10 Sweet Innocence
Mario Badescu Drying Lotion
Mario Badescu Vitamin C Serum
Josie Maran Argan Oil
Melliesh Lipgloss in 01 Strawberry Milk
Ann Taylor Exotic Perfect Skinny Belt in Limelight
Ann Taylor LOFT Sequin Flower Pin

Do you like how I incorporated some fashion items as well? I thought I'd throw that in there because it really has been something that has been popping into my daily life a lot this past month and in future videos, it may help me keep a log of what trends I'm into that month. It might be fun to look back on.

Let me know what you think!

Disclaimer: Revlon and Josie Maran products were sent to me by the company's PR. Melliesh product was sent to me by Pinky Paradise. I was not paid in any way nor required to do a review on the samples. All my reviews, as always, are 100% my honest opinion. 

Hello my lovelies! I know many of you love jewelry as much as I do and because of this I wanted to share a jewelry company with you called Stella & Dot. You may have heard of the brand before from seeing it in magazines or on celebrities as I did, and they are basically a company similar to Avon in that they have stylists who sell the jewelry and become entrepreneurs themselves. I definitely respect that it gives women a chance to empower themselves with something they already like... jewelry!


I mentioned this in the video that I am selective in saying yes to review products in general but I am quite happy with the quality of products I received and I wouldn't be doing this review and giveaway unless I was truly satisfied with the quality of Stella & Dot's jewelry. I am not going to lie, a huge downside is that it is on the expensive side, but you also get what you pay for in terms of nice materials and there are many gold-filled and 925 sterling silver pieces to choose from. It has been my personally philosophy to buy nicer jewelry rather than costume pieces for a while now due to my metal allergies so this did make me particularly happy.

For those of you who have no problems with metals, Stella & Dot does have a wider range of jewelry at different price points in items that are simply gold or silver-plated but it's worth noting that the items I received are on the higher end. What can I say? My body literally demands more expensive taste (otherwise I break out). Har har.

Today I wanted to share another highly requested video, a tutorial of my everyday updo. I had gotten several requests from having posted videos with this hair here, here, and in my Boston haul here. It's supa-dupa easy so hair noobs, this is perfect for you! ;)
