Holiday Gifts That Give Back

Hey guys!! How are you? I was recently contacted by a person from the company AUrate New York , a company that makes real gold jewelry. They are selecting a few different bloggers to do a post on holiday gifts that give back. At their own company they donate a book to underprivileged kids when you buy things from them.

To stay with my blogs main theme I chose to research beauty brands that give back, these are just a few I found from brands I like. :)

Lush- Lush has a charity pot lotion. If you purchase it, the proceeds go to charity.

Mac- When you buy their Viva Glam Lipsticks or Lipglass they help provide medicine to prevent the spread of Aids from moms to newborns.

The Body Shop - This brand gives back in multiple ways when you buy from them. I highly recommend checking them out.

Sephora - Sephora help women reentering the workforce as well as employees affected by natural disasters and other issues.

Josie Maran - This brand helps Moroccan women as well as trying to protect the argon forests. They also help polar bears.

Do you guys know any more brands you love that give back?

What you should know about dating a gamer

Hey guys!! I wanted to do a slightly different kind of post today, my boyfriend is a gamer and so I thought it could be fun to do a post on what you should know about dating a gamer, and the best part? This list is gamer approved. :) lol 1. Gamers will game... alot. If you are going to date a gamer you have to understand this, gaming is part of what he loves doing, especially if he's hardcore gamer, so don't be one of those girlfriends who's constantly trying to make him stop playing, gamers don't like that at all. You shouldn't try and change him, but accept who he is, or other option find a guy who isn't a gamer. lol 2. Sometimes, it will take an eternity to get a text back, or he forgets. You'll get used to it. There are just some games where you can't pause them or they are just too difficult for him to text you back quickly. If he likes this game: that can be especially true. And trust me I've played it, he

Getting my Belly Button Pierced

(Photo by Grace, Southern Grace Photography) So I did something super exciting and scary recently. I got my belly pierced!! I researched and found a awesome tattoo shop called Golden Spiral Tattoo, I totally recommend them btw. I went with my fiance and we told them what we were there for and I gave them my ID and signed the papers after the piercing artist did a short 'consultation' which was basically just looking at and feeling my belly button area. She told me because I bend right at my belly button when I sit and stuff I would need to be sure to sit up straight, but it looked good and she could do it. We went back with her to a little room and she cleaned around my belly button and marked where to pierce with her maker and measured the area. She had a few different belly rods I guess? laying out for me to choose from so I chose a small diamond looking one (pictured obviously lol) and she sanitized it. She had me lay on the table and adjust

Loreal True Match Foundation Review

I've had this for a few months now so I decided it was time to do a review. I have the color Alabaster which is a cool shade. It actually matches my skin tone perfectly so that's a really big plus. This lasts all day long, but on me it doesn't really help all that much with my skin getting oily/shiny looking. I actually think this might make my skin look MORE shiny because it has a bit of a dewy finish (which is great if your skin isn't already oily). That being said I do like this, but I'm not sure I'll repurchase it because of the shine factor but I think if you have normal or dry skin then this would be something good to try and they have plenty of shades so it's a good chance you'll be able to find your skin tone.
