DIY Citrus Scarf

I made myself this super summery scarf using real lemons and limes to make the print.

May Ipsy Bag 2015

When I saw that there were 3 possible bags for this month I crossed my fingers that this was the one I got and I am so happy.  I just think the saying on it is so funny!

In this months bag I got:

Collective US Beauty Haul

I recently went away with my parents to Florida.  We have a time share there and usually go there for the first two weeks in May, I only went for one this year but I have been going for many years (ever since I was 5 weeks old).

Obviously I have to do some shopping while I am there, I tried to place an order with Ulta to make sure I got everything I had my eyes on (specifically the Lorac Pro Palette) just in case it was sold out. But clearly I am doing something wrong because I could not place the order... once I needed to enter my credit card (which clearly has a Canadian billing address) my order would not go through.  I know this is because they only ship to the US and you cannot even put in an address in Canada, even for billing! I think this is kind of a huge pain in my butt.  So of course, once I got to Ulta... no palette.  When I went to check out I asked the cashier if they knew when they would be getting more in (the day was after we would be leaving), she mentioned ordering online, to which I responded with this long winded story that I am now repeating for all of you.  She suggested using a pre-paid credit card or purchasing a gift card when I was in the states and using that (which still would mean I had to go to an Ulta to get the gift card?)  Does anyone have any suggestions for this or a way to get around it? Let me know in the comments below!

Okay, into the goods.  I picked up stuff from Ulta, CVS and Target.

Lush Spring 2015 Haul

Since I have quite a bit of Lush stuff still left in my basket I did my best to only pick up some of the new spring stuff that I really liked.  I got out of there with only 5 things which is pretty good for someone that loves Lush as much as I do.

Bite Beauty's Watercolor Lip Gloss Library

As promised here is a closer look at the Watercolor Lip Gloss Library from Bite.  Get ready for lots of pictures because I got a little snap happy with this beautiful set.

As a big thank you to everyone that follows my blog I wanted to put together a small giveaway.  I know its not a huge giveaway but it's always nice to receive some cute stuff in the mail I think!
