Lipstick Lover



Hello there friends! I have been meaning to do a post about the numerous lipsticks that I use but I never got around to it until today! My mom ALWAYS goes to Macy's for the cool gifts they have when you spend a certain amount of money, which is where I got this handy-dandy lipstick holder box thingy! I used to have this small pouch that fit all of my lipsticks perfectly but since I've been getting more the pouch has been getting a little bit cramped. I thoroughly enjoy having this rack since I can easily choose any color I want (I tend to use a different color every day). I do have a few more colors but I use those less often so I don't find it necessary to put them in there. Also these are the ones that I use the most so it's nice to have them all in one place. 





Since I am already making this post I might as well do a review right? These are the ones that I am absolutely in LOVE with. Well to be fair, every time I get a new color I use that one the most until I get a new one... Okay well first of all Baby Lips have been there for me through thick and thin. A little dramatic for chapstick, but it's true! So the green one is peppermint I believe and the blue one is just called Quenched...? I take the green one with me to school and I leave the blue one at home on my desk to use in the morning or before bed. They come on a bit glossy so I try not to use too much but they definitely do not ever 
leave my lips dry! 
Now the other two are Maybelline's  Color Whisper tinted chapstick in Pink Possibilities and A Plum Prospect. They are a lot less glossy than the Baby Lips but they are sooo soft. I have been using these every morning because the color is not too vibrant especially for school. The pink one is really light and the purple one doesn't go on too purple. They are definitely my current favorites. 

Let me know how you like these!
Love,
Vy

Meow Meow

Hello there friends! 
I am supposed to be doing homework right now but I decided I really wanted to tell you about my favorite beanie with cat ears. YES, that's right. I said cat ears. It's not very new but I have not worn it outside yet considering it is still extremely warm. Fall is here and the weather is starting to become a bit more chilly. Now I got this when I was at the mall with some friends a little while ago. We were at H&m and one of my friends spotted a black furry hat with, well cat ears. I almost fell in love however I'm not really one to wear furry things so I was reluctant to buy it even though it was relatively cheap. I went to the section where they all were and that is when I spotted the one. The greenish knitted pattern somehow tricked me into trying it on. It fit perfectly on my unusually round head and the best part? THE CAT EARS. How could I resist? I mean it was only about 10 bucks and it was ADORABLE. So yeah I just went and bought it. I have plenty of other beanies that I love but this was the most recent one I bought. Maybe I'll do another post about my Cupcake beanie;) 
Love, Meow,
Vy

Homecoming and Things

HELLO FRIENDS.

Wow look at me! Already changing things up. I realize that on ALL of my posts I've used the greeting "Hello there!" or "Hi there!" but it was definitely necessary that this post had to be different. Now this post will probably end up being really cheesy but it doesn't matter because it's something I think you guys should year. 3 years in high school and I have never been in a rally. Ever. I was never one to put myself out there. I couldn't act or be in front of a HUGE amount of people just doing random things like dancing or being involved in a game. I mean for a while it didn't matter but when you're a senior the only reason you have for putting yourself out there is "when am I ever going to do this again?" and that's exactly why I have decided to participate in this year's rally. Now I'm not doing much but I will be doing our traditional "Couple's Dance" with a friend of mine (Natalie). It was almost fate because when the sign up sheet was going around I had NO ONE to dance with but then Natalie ended up admitting that she didn't want to dance with the partner she signed up for so I just kind of swooped in and stole her (oops). Anyway,  now I actually have to do this dance with. I am extremely nervous, though I know it'll be fine because I won't be the only one doing the dance. Plus, as I said earlier, it's senior year and I'll never be able to do this again. I realize that this probably doesn't seem like a big deal to any of you but it's a big deal to me. It is a huge step in coming out of my comfort zone and doing something that involves school spirit and stuff. So I was right, this post did end up being really cheesy. Who cares though? It's senior year and when am I ever gonna come out of my comfort zone like this again?

Sincerely Yours,
Vy

My BFF Ladies and Gentlemen!

Hello there!
It is about 1:35 am and I am DEAD tired but I felt that it was necessary to make this post about my best friend. First of all, her name is JANELLE MAGBITANG (as if you didn't already know from the title) and today was the last day I was going to see her for a while): She originally came over to make a video for my channel. Unfortunately we got sidetracked by my hunger and her love for Starbucks and Target makeup. We had a mini haul where I picked up the Maybelline Color Tattoo eyeshadow in Inked Pink that she reviewed so well (her stamp of approval means a lot). Even after this long day it looks like I just put it on! Wait, I'm trying not to make this a review.. But I'll probably make a post on that one later:) Anyway we just ended up taking a BILLION ridiculous photos and watching the "What Does the Fox Say" video a BILLION times and laughing so hard we cried/almost peed.  I never appreciated that video until this day. Anyway, Janelle did help me a BUNCH on making my blog look waaaaaay better than it did before so I am forever grateful for that:) Sad to say that she is leaving Sunday but I know I'll see her soon enough. I miss you already Janelle!
Love,
Vy

Stress, Stress, and More Stress

Hello there!
I realize it has been a while since I've posted something. It's been hard lately to keep up with this blog so I apologize for that. So many things have come up this month and that are coming up next month and I swear my life is a living hell. I know it's kind of annoying that I complain so much but it's my blog so I don't really care. My teachers have been messing up my grades and it's the most irritating thing ever because I have to go and find out what happened and how to fix it. Plus I have to deal with the fact that my grade is ridiculously low for a while until they do fix it. This year started off awesome and now it's just going down the drain. I feel like I have so much time for things but everything is graded so much harder now. I do study and I do keep up with the work but it never feels like enough. My grades pretty much define how hard I work and it's so inaccurate. I can't even handle anything right now.
Love,
A stressed out Vy

Carmel By the Sea

Hi there! 
So today I will not be posting a review on any products I've bought recently only because... well I haven't bought anything recently. However, on Monday (labor day) I took a trip to Carmel Beach with my family and a close family friend that we've known for years. We've been going to that beach since I was about 4 or 5? And there was a time where he went with us a ton of times. We actually recreated one of the pictures we took when we were young so that was really fun. Anyway I just wanted to leave a few pictures that pretty much sum everything up. Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend as well!
Love, Vy
