catching up and Conscious Box Fun!!

SO I have not been blogging as much as usual this month and I think I am having bloggers shock! 4 or 5 times a day I am thinking I should blog that! alas I end up being to busy to blog. I have com to realize my fly by the seat of my pants approach to life is not always the greatest thing. So my 1st new years resolution to put on the list for next year is to make a schedule. Time for work time for school time for home  and time for blogging:)
Specking of which Lets catch up!

I have been trying some things from Tomoson lately so next week expect to see 2 book reviews and A review on Noxicare
Also I got approved for a Voxbox My very first one I am so excited and cant wait for it to get here!!
I also signed up for a Conscious box for 3 months with a bonus Christmas box that came in this week!! http://consciousbox.com/

If you don't know much about Conscious box it is a monthly delivery of pure and sustainable products that are handpicked from businesses that care for the planet. They even have a vegan option. I am not vegan so I ordered the regular box and I absolutely love what I got! Here is their mission statement.

Cosmetic Review Sunday

Cosmetic Review Sunday

Today I am doing a review of my favorite eye shadow L.A. Colors Trio Pallets all with different flower names like Passion Flower, and Forget Me Not. I personally have these two
As you can see from the swatches the colors provide good coverage and are highly pigmented. That is one of the thing I look for in a good eyeshadow. There is nothing worse than thinking you have a pretty color and it looking faded when applied.
 

 This is the set I used today and did a sort of a sunset look.
.









And this is the finished look

 
The next eyeshadow I want to try will be E.L.F eyeshadow. I have heard some good and bad about them so I want to check them out for myself. I will be doing a review when I try them out!
I also want to give urban decay a try as well I hear the eye primer is very good and that they have a good selection of eyeshadow.
If you cant tell I am a eyeshadow junkie (nail polish too) so I am looking for the best wearing out there.
I also recently ran across A company called Spectrum Cosmetics http://www.sp3ctrum.com/
There products are handmade/ vegan/ and 30% of their proceeds go to Autism charities. As I have a Autistic son myself I give major props to this company and would love to see everyone buy at least a little something from them. I have never tried their cosmetic yet but it is defiantly on the list. 
So that is the end of my L.A. Colors review, Have a great Sunday!!
