Nature Box #3

This month I received my third Nature Box. I was so excited again this month about the items I received from nature box. Everything is so tasty and I'm glad to know everything is natural and healthy too. This month our favorite snacks were the strawberry crispy fruit chews and the guacamole bites, but everything we got this month was really good. I finished my bag of the tart and tangy mix the first day :)

Nature Box #2

 Early last month I blogged about my first Nature Box. Nature Box is a food subscription service that is delivered monthly. The snacks offered are super nutritious and also taste incredibly good. We were so pleased with out first box we even added in a few extra snacks to try this month.

The sour cream and onion almonds were hands down my favorite. I finished the bag of them on the first or second day. They were that good. Our other favorites were the Fuji Apples, the tart & tangy fruit medley, whole wheat raspberry figgy bars, & the sourdough cheddar pretzels. 

We weren't big fans of the chili lime pistachios, and I don't think we'd get the Santa Fe corn stix again either, but all things considered this was an improvement from the first box. There were a few things (the sour cream and onion almonds) that will most likely end up being added into our next box because we liked them so much :)

If you have heard about Nature Box and weren't sure what to expect, then let me assure you that this box of snacks is a worthwhile subscription. They have a snack to suit to just about anyone's taste.

I'm already excited to start putting together my next month's Nature Box!

NatureBox

Sometimes finding delicious and healthy snacks on your own can prove difficult. Even some of the seemingly healthy things at the grocery store can have a lot of sugar added in. NatureBox is a company that delivers tasty and nutritious snacks to your door for a reasonable price. Before coming across NatureBox I had never tried a box subscription service because the thought of paying money and not knowing what I was getting in return is just sort of off putting to me. NatureBox allows your to select what you would like to receive, or you can receive surprise snacks, or you can do both.

 My husband and I ended up selecting all five of our snacks so we knew what to expect. We chose Chili Munch Mix, Cherry Berry Bonanza, Pb&J Granola, Mango Orange Fruit Chews, Country Ranch Sunflower Kernels, and we received one free package of Apple Pie Oat Clusters.

 My favorite was the Chili Munch Mix, my husband's favorite ended up being the free Apple Pie Oat Clusters, although we liked everything we selected. I especially liked pairing the Cherry Berry Bonanza and the Pb&J Granola together. It is SO good.

 If you want a second opinion and a chance to win a NatureBox of your own check out The Bleubird NatureBox Giveaway. 

Since we weren't sure what we were getting ourselves into we signed up for a three month subscription but I have a feeling we will end up extending our subscription because we really enjoyed our first NatureBox. I strongly recommend trying it because it's really inexpensive and you can try it for just a month if you're a little unsure about subscription boxes too. 

 Give it a try!

I promise you won't be disappointed :)

Fall 2013 Eye Make up Favorites

I always love finding out what kinds of products other people use so I decided to share a little bit more of some of my favorite products. I've shared a few of My Favorite Haircare Products before, but this time I've decided to focus on eye make up.
When I do my make-up I spend most of my time on my skin and eyes. To me the skin and eye make-up is all you need for great basic everyday make-up. However, I definitely like to play up my eyes the most. I pretty much wear the cat-eye look every day. I always wear several coats of mascara and I love my eyelash curler. If you also love eye make up above all else, continue reading. If not sorry, but I'll do another post about skin and lips soon :)

Maybelline Full N' Soft Mascara in Blackest Black: I have been using this Mascara off and on for years and have always loved that it results in thicker lashes with little to no clumps. This mascara can be made more dramatic by adding more layers as well. It is very easy to wash off as well which is important to me.

Rimmel Eyebrow Pencil in Hazel: This is another product I have been using off and on for several years. It is definitely a contender for my favorite eyebrow pencil. I just love that it is a brown eyebrow pencil that doesn't have a reddish color to it. For some reason those are hard to come by.

Rimmel Scandalous Eyeliner in Nude: This eyeliner is great for opening up your eyes and making your eyes really pop. I prefer it to white eyeliner which can be a bit too dramatic for everyday use.

Milani Brow Fix Brow Kit: I have mentioned this product on HN before the lighter color is a good match to my hair color and blends well with my Rimmel eyebrow pencil.

Covergirl Eyeshadow in Mink: This eyeshadow is my favorite go to when I want to play up my eyes a little bit more

Almay Liquid Eyeliner in Black Pearl- I'm always on the hunt for the best liquid eyeliner and this is the first time I've used an Almay Liquid eyeliner. This color, "Black Pearl" has a little it of a sparkle in it and is a fun product to use every now and then but isn't going to be my favorite or go to eyeliner. I'm still looking for the right one.

You can find some of my other most used make-up products here. You may recognize some that are still in my routine now. I hope to share some more of my other favorite skin make-up items and lipsticks soon!

What are some of your favorite eye make-up products?

What I'm Loving Now: Make Up Edition (5things)

Last month I published This post about a few products that I liked for a different take on the "5 Things" posts I usually do. I Had a lot of fun talking about some of my favorite products with you so I decided to come back with another post to test the waters of introducing posts like this as a new feature for HN. So let me know if this is something you'd enjoy reading about more :)

  1. Wet N' Wild Blush in Heather Silk (832E) and Pearlescent Pink (831E). These two are my go to blushes. The brand is really inexpensive and the blush is still pigmented and long lasting. I usually go back and forth between using these two in my daily make up routine as blush and also sometimes as eye shadow.

 2.Covergirl Outlast Stay Brilliant nail polish in Coral Silk (240). I chose this nail polish because I wanted a peachy nail polish that was both pink but orange-y as well. Honestly this polish looks more orange in most lights but it still is obviously peach. Just not enough pink in it as i would have liked. It's still my favorite nail polish color right now.

 3. Maybelline Falsies Volum' Express Mascara in Blackest Black. 

Mascara is one of my make up necessities and I'm always searching for a product that gives both volume and length. This is one of the few mascaras that meets both those needs. If I use my eye lash curler it really gives the full look of false lashes without the glue. so worth it.

 4. Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Matte Smoked Peach (013). I am pretty picky when it comes to lipsticks. I've always been a fan of matte lipsticks but often times the formulas are cakey and the end product is just... not good. Revlon's matte lipsticks are some of my favorites. I own quite a few and this particular color is perfect for summer. It is the perfect combination of a coral and a nude. I've been wearing it constantly since the weather warmed up.

5. Milani Brow Fix Brow Kit. I picked this up on a whim while browsing the make up section at the store because it was on sale and I've been trying to regrow my eyebrows for a while and really needed a powder filler for my brows in the meantime. This stuff is a lifesaver. I use it both with and without eyebrow pencil depending on my mood. It comes with two brow colors and a highlighter as well as brushes and tweezers. I usually use the lighter shade for more realistic brows and the darker shade for more dramatic make up. It's been in my daily make up line up since i brought it home.
