My Top 5 Winter Drugstore Lipsticks.

My Top 5 Winter  Drugstore Lipsticks.

(Going from crazy cheap to a good price)

1.  Elf #11004 Nude- This is more of a lip balm but i consider any lip product that puts a color that lasts on your lips a lip stick. So on that note, I love this. It has a very smooth texture. When i apply it if almost feels like Burts Beeswax lip product because of the smell and the small tingling feeling you get. It is a very beautiful subtle nude with sparkle. I wear this in the winter when i want really soft moisturized lips with a little color on the days when i am going more natural.
Price: $1.00

2. Wet n Wild 918D Cherry Bomb - These lip stick scare me when i go to buy them because the color sticker on the bottom of the tube  NEVER matches what it turns out to be at all, But i saw someone with this color on and fell in love with it and now i am telling everybody they need to go get this for their winter lipstick collection! It is a beautiful deep mate burnt red color that is perfect for a night out or a holiday party. These lipsticks are very dry and make your lips look chapped, but i found out if i put some Vaseline or just a good colorless chap stick on right before i don't have a problem and they still last really long.Very Vampy color
Price:$1.99

3.Maybelline 435 Perfect Plum- These lipsticks not only add a gorgeous color but add so much moisture to my lips. This color in particular has been my 'everyday go to' color perfect for winter and when i apply a light coat it makes a light red purple shade but if i want to go out for the night just add another coat and you have a dark red purple that look picture perfect. This color can go on any skin tone which would make it a perfect stocking stuffer for a makeup lover.
Price: $7.00

4.Maybelline 215 Totally Toffee - Same brand as #3 so not much else to say about this one but  this warmer shade nude brown is perfect for a more vamped up version of #1 darker has a lot of flow smoothness, and shine. 
Price:$7.00

#5. Remell London Kate Moss Collection 107 -  New favorite burnt red lipstick. absolutely love the texture and the formula. You can really transform this color into a day or night lipstick. The entire Kate Moss collection i love but this one has to be the best out of all of them in my personal opinion. It has a very nice sleek shine that it give your lips it makes you look like a professional took an hour perfecting your lips when it only took you 2 seconds to swoop it on. I have a feeling that when it gets closer to Christmas that this is going to transform into me 'go to color'.End of story, Love it!
Price: $8.00

ATTACKING ASTHMA #1: Goals for the new me!


                        
         
                       This picture was taking summer of 2012. When i was working out, eating healthy, and had very few asthma problems. This photo was taken off of my instagram account, Cubbixoxo


ATTACKING ASTHMA #1:  

I have really bad asthma, i have had it since i was really young. I have always just delt with it and never tried anything different besides live with it and just have a rescue inhaler EVERYWHERE. I used to workout all the time, i was home schooled so i had all the time in the world! Then i slowed down started working multiple jobs and was busy all the time. 
I have started to realize that my asthma is slowly starting to get worse and worse. Now in my defense it is winter time and my asthma gets worse due to the changes in the weather and the air, But when i was working out constantly it was almost non-existent.
For myself, my health, and better living i have made a 'winter goal' for myself.
I am going to workout everyday, eat healthier, and train my lungs to be strong again.
I am going to blog about it along the way as well as do my normal blogs.
I am calling the series Attacking Asthma because it has attacked me enough in my life that now it is my turn to attack it!

Its Christmas time!


What do you think of when someone says the word 'Christmas'?
I think of the amazing smell of a live Christmas Tree!
So, when i saw this candle in Yankee Candle called Mistletoe..I had to buy it!
There are ton of candles and room mists that claim that they smell "Just like a real tree in sitting in your living room" I smell them and they smell like fake plastic Christmas Trash and its nasty! I want a true live Christmas Tree fresh cut from a farm smell. With this candle i get that!! It smells so perfect and true, it couldn't be any more perfect! 
What do i rate this? 10 out of 10, 5 perfect stars, 2 Thumbs up!
Will for sure go buy this again, and if you love this scent like i do then go to a Yankee Candle store and smell it i promise you , you will not leave the store without it because you cant get your nose out of it! :)
Have a fantastic day and just know that i love you! <3
