goodbye high school/// a short diary

Hi everyone, I am finally back from my short break, I really needed it and I’m glad I took it, because now I feel ready to blog again. Anyways, today’s post will be another personal and short diary entry about the end of high school for me. This is a bit different than the other posts I have blogged about before, but I’m happy with the way it turned out.

Goodbye High School…

“From there on, it all became bittersweet. I acted like there was not a care in the world, however in reality I was far from it. Mixed emotions ran through my blood, I had no idea how to feel. I should be glad that I was out of the place that I called hell for two years. However, something about today was different that made me miss something that was no longer in my life. I’m not sure if it was those empty hallways, or the staff that was there, or even the fresh school scent that hit me as soon as I walked through the front doors. Once I received my diploma, of course I was happy that I had finally graduated high school and was finally done with this place forever. However, in a way I also felt somewhat sentimental saying goodbye to this place, I mean, even though not much came out positive from high school, I still wouldn’t of met some of my favorite teachers or my counselor, or even some friends who changed my life at the time. But from that moment on, I felt ready to let go of all the anger and hurt I had been feeling for so long, and when I did, there was this sense of closure I felt after. The moment I stepped through the doors, I said my goodbyes to this place; letting go of the past and stepping into the next chapter of my life.”

What I received in my Ipsy Glam Bag/// May 2018

Hi everyone, welcome back to my blog. It’s been nearly a week since my last post, which was more of a serious/personal post (thank you to everyone who read my posts and comments positivity to me, it meant a lot). Today’s post will be my awaited post on unboxing my May Ipsy Glam Bag.

This month’s Glam bag theme is “Go There”, it’s all about finding yourself in the midst of traveling. This month’s bag is adorable, the bag itself has vintage international traveling stamps, and not to mention that it’s great quality. I’m looking forward to trying these products out, so let’s get into the unboxing portion.

SL Miss Glam Pink Beauty Sponge 

This product is probably what I’m most excited for, it’s so cute and tiny. So far I have had nothing but good experiences with Slmissglam. As many of you know, the Original beauty Blender is my holy-grail, but I’ve also been loving the Real Techniques Sponge for quite some time now, and hopefully this could be a new contender!

Aphrodite Skincare Olive Oil Face Scrub 

This is a new brand to me, however I did do some research about their company and I’m very intrigued by their products. Aphrodite Skincare are products that are handcrafted in Greece, a staple of most of their products is olive oil. The face scrub claims to be gently exfoliating and cruelty-free.

TonyMoly Painting Therapy Pack: Sebum Control Black Color Clay

So unfortunately, Tonymoly is not cruelty-free which is very unfortunate because I really do like their products, however I do not believe I will be using this product, because they do test on animals. I will probably end up giving this product to a relative of mine.

TreStique Mini Matte Blur Stick 

I absolutely love the concept of this product, as an oily person, this would definitely come in handy. The product claims to be a blurring primer and shine eraser, I only tried this product in a small area of my hand so far, therefore I will need to use this one my face a few times in order to form an opinion. Their site claims that they do not test on animals, however I do not see a certification, so hopefully they are.

Huda Beauty Lip Contour in Trophy Wife

I was very fortunate to get this in my Glam bag this month, I have never tried any of Huda’s products however they are all very beautiful and this is a gorgeous color. I do not wear lip products often, however I will definitely give this one a shot.

Nyakio Kenyan Coffee Face Polish

This last product is a product that I got using my Ipsy points, and I am beyond excited to try this out. The product is certified cruelty-free, organic/natural, and fair-trade. This face polish exfoliates to give your skin a youthful radiant complexion, with the ingredient of Kenyan Coffee. IMG-5595
