Crabtree & Evelyn Goatmilk Lotion

The other day i tried this lotion as a tester & it was very calming & nice. Crabtree & Evelyn is the brand, every time i think of them i think of my mom & her avocado shower gel that she loves. Now i will also think of their Goatmilk Body Cream, after the fact that i thought it was calming i read the package saying its meant to be comforting.

This is great 15 mins. before bedtime (i say 15 because i don't like to stick to the sheets lol).

A little pricey (all their products are) for $28.

When i think of goats lately i think of Greece, my friends and i were walking past a field of goats & my friend says "O Nikos exei ena katsiki", which if you've seen My Big Fat Greek Wedding (more than once at least xD) you'll remember the beginning when they're in Greek school resiting this line; it means "Nikos has one goat". It made me laugh (this won't be funny unless you've watched the movie too much haha)

You can find it on YouTube its about 3mins into the 1st part.

Beauty must haves for Memorial Day

Whether you're going to the beach, a pool party, or a barbecue this Memorial Day you'll want to keep these things in mind before hanging with friends.


Block Out - The most important beauty must have of the summer is a good moisturizer with SPF. Just because the SPF is higher doesn't mean you're getting more protection. SPF 15 blocks around 96% of the sun’s harmful UV rays. Lotions that contain

Caudalie Beauty Elixir

OMG!! This product is my new obession. Caudalie is a natural beauty line with lots of other skin goodies. The beauty elixir is infused with essentials oils. It also boosts circulation. Apparently, one of Beyonce's go-to-makeup pros uses this product on the R&B diva. Naturally, I had to pick it up on my last trip to Sephora. (If it's good enough for Beyonce it's good enough for me...LOL)

Makeup Product Review

Studio Gear Flawless foundation gives a sheer to medium coverage. It is a buildable formula so you can definitely add more product to cover blemishes or redness. SG Flawless foundation will moisturize the skin without creating a cakey or overdone look. No one wants that look. Remember, the key to flawless makeup is to put in the work without looking over worked. This foundation works really well

Random Info***

Geia sas everyone! I hope you guys are enjoying your summer & taking advantage of the beach!

So i didn't end up getting my wisdom teeth out on Wed. but i made an appointment for 2 weeks from now on July 7th. I will be getting i.v. sedation..sounds scary i know. They told me it'll feel like 5 minutes to me, i hope so.

But anyway today's post is kinda some randoms & stuff i've been liking & wanting lately. So keeping with that; i have always been crazy about Zebra gum (which i only recently learned its not actually called that lol) so the search is on for a store that sells it.

My siblings & i loved to eat multiple pieces & use the 'tattoos' that you get in each piece. I remember having huge wods of gum in my mouth at times when there doctors appointments & my mom bought us 'zebra gum' if we behaved lol.

On a good note Greece won their game vs Nigeria on Thursday! I was cheering in my empty house & my dogs were looking at me like "girl what is your problem" haha. I was also happy they put in Sotiris Ninis(above); who is looking up to be the next great star of football..ehhem soccer sorry, listening to the European commentators & people say it all the time its caught on. That's kinda like visiting the south you come back sounding less Yankee like haha.

Oh & i wanted to let you guys know Coastal Scents is having a buy 2 get 1 free on their gel liners. Which i'm thinking about doing, even though i was only going to buy 1 if i buy 1 more i get a free liner. This is how i justify the spending sadly lol. But definitely check it out if you're interested!

Okay next up is a product i want because it gives your hair a weightless hold. Its the Ion Volumizing Solutions Vitalizing Shaping Mist

I'm also wanting THIS brush by e.l.f. But i would use it for foundation not powder. I've heard it gives great coverage & is fabulous for foundation & for $3 i am willing to buy it for sure!

And finally i wanted to share what i have been listening to & today i have been having a Luis Fonsi obsession & the 2 songs i keep listening to are ¿Quién te dijo eso? & Nada Es Para Siempre, watch the videos HERE & HERE. Enjoy the view too cuz he's a cutie! ...& a great singer! :)

Talk to you all soon!
