The photos that didn't make the cut to Instagram... If you're on the hunt for bright and fun lips for spring, check out these lip glosses by Melted. They are super pigmented, so what you see is what you get. They go on glossy, but turn matte-ish as it dries. I say "matte-ish" because it's definitely matte, but it wipes off easily. Almost a little too easy. I wore the Melted Violet one day and then went to Qdoba for lunch and as I was eating my burrito the lipstick would come off on the ... Read More
Beauty Review – Becca Foundation
I've given a mini-review of this foundation on SnapChat (jessicanjones) but I thought I'd expand a little bit on the blog. :) I'll just tell you right off the bat, that I love it. I have been a MAC Studio Fix fan for years. My biggest complaints about Studio Fix was that it was too oily and I could never quite get the color match I needed. But I loved the coverage, so I just kept using it. ... Read More

Five Things I Know For Sure... 1. Healthy Eating Is Friggin' Hard. I feel great. Really good. But I want chocolate. Right now I'm trying to cut sugar out for 3 days at a time. 3 days on, 1 day off, and repeat. Someday I'll bump it up to 7 days and maybe 14 days, but for now I need to start small.

Just ... Read More
Birthday Wish List

He's been asking me for weeks what's on my birthday list, so I've made it real easy this year. 1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6 // 7 // 8 // 9 // 10 That Michael Kors watch sure is pretty. But I'd honestly be just as happy with Thai Food delivered to my house. (Trust me, I tried to add Thai Food hovering over my bed to the above list, ... Read More
Makeup Goodies
This past Saturday was my annual makeup day with the girls. In years past, we've made appointments and had our makeup done by professionals, but this year we decided to switch things up a bit. The 3 of us have been glued to YouTube lately, specifically to watch Jaclyn Hill, our favorite beauty blogger. After watching a few of her videos and making a shopping list (okay, I was the only one who made an actual list) we set out to Sephora to do some damage. I think my favorite purchase is something ...
