Here are some things I just could not get enough of in March!
- From the March 2013 Birchbox Whish Shave Crave Shaving Cream: This made my legs feel unbelievable soft even days after using it. I admit its rare you will ever see me use a shaving cream in the shower but I just had to try it since it smelled so nice. I especially love the fact that it does not over lather on your legs; it’s more of like a lotion. The blueberry scent is nice to wake up to in the mornings. I’m still debating on purchasing the full size since it’s not exactly something I can’t live without but I sure am loving this sample! For a picture and link to where you can see this product check out my previous Birchbox post here. If you would like to sign up for Birchbox click here.
- Sigma Beauty F80 Flat Top Kabuki Brush: (From this previous post) I have been so digging this brush for the flawless finish and build-able coverage it gives. I don’t think I could go back to using regular foundation brush if I tried. It’s so soft and doesn’t leave my face streaky and it cleans like a dream and does not lose bristles (!). I can’t wait to get my hands on more Sigma Beauty brushes…once my No Buy April is over of course.
- Kinky Curly Curling Custard: This product saved me when I had no idea what to do after cutting off all my hair. It has a nice but not crunchy hold and it also offers a nice sheen to my ‘do. I’m not a huge fan of the snot like texture (sorry guys) but I got over that when I saw the results. It’s definitely recommended that you use this on dripping wet hair and a little goes a looong way. I’ve read that this doesn’t mix too well with some products (read: white residue in hair) so to be safe I use the Kinky Curly Knot Today leave in underneath it. I’m currently on the quest for the perfect gel and I have five contenders. Be on the lookout for that future post!
- Pixi Nail Polish in Evening Emerald from the March 2013 Glossybox: when I first picked up this shade I thought it was more aquamarine than emerald. And then I applied it and fell in love. It did not chip on me until day four when I was applying the previously mentioned gel and then the tips were chip city. Weird. Since emerald is the color of the year I have been meaning to get my hands on a decent emerald nail polish so I was happy to have this in my box this month. I haven’t done a post on my Glossybox yet which I was pretty impressed with so stay tuned.

- Dress Up Boutique: this place is quickly becoming my favorite store for spring. The dresses are so cute and the price points are amazing; an average dress with run around $30-$40. There are stores all over north Georgia but I had the chance to attend the grand opening of their Brookhaven location; see the overdose of awesome picture below. They are also going to be opening a Perimeter store so be obscure to check that out….and make sure you leave some dresses for me!

- Pirate’s Booty Aged White Cheddar Rice Baked and Corn Puffs: I randomly licked these up at the grocery store and fell in instant passionate love. So much so that I had to buy the biggest bag I could even find so that I will not run out for the foreseeable future. Think of these as adult healthier versions of Cheetos but with a better quality cheese and a different crunch. They almost kind of melt in your mouth with a slight crunch at the end and they don’t turn your fingers obnoxiously orange. I can’t wait to try more flavors but for now I am more than content with my giant bag of white cheddar.
So that’s what I loved (and still do) in March. What were some of your favorite things last month?
I really enjoy reading what others find to be great products. I few things that I enjoyed this past March are:
1. Urban Decay de-Slick Finishing Spray – it is perfect for that flawless matte finish
2. JCPenney’s dresses – they are very cute and in my price range as well. Plus, their plus size selection is gorgeous.
3. FACE Atelier foundation from Canada – it is simply amazing. The coverage is perfection and has been refereed to as a low cost version of Giorgio Armani’s Luminous Silk.
4. Lastly, spaghetti squash. I saw it on the Biggest Loser and it is super yummy!
I love Urban Decay! I may need to invest in that with the warmer weather coming up so I’m not shine city.
My sister is a fan of spaghetti squash but I’ve never tried it. I know it looks like spaghetti but does it actually taste like it too?
