Welcome Back!

Hi Everyone!

Yes!

 I am back, after taking a three year break to go back to work, have another baby, and go back to school. Amongst all of this chaos I have felt a need to have something simply for myself; an outlet where I can share all my loves, interests, and passions.

This blog used to be a great fondness of mine and I felt a nagging need to continue on with something that used to bring me such a sense of delight. So here I find myself writing my first post in what seems like forever!! 

As my life has changed and evolved I hope that this blog will as well. Rather than just blogging about beauty and fashion I would like to open up and discuss lifestyle, what I've been reading and listening to, health and delicious recipes! Of course I will still share my love of makeup and clothing as well!

I would love to know what you guys have been up to and what topics you would enjoy reading about! Love you all!

Maple Vox Box

Hello Lovelies ❤❤

I can not believe Christmas has come and gone already. I hope you all had a wonderful holiday and got to spend time with your loved ones. Me and my family had a lovely time other then a terrible flu that seems to be going around. We all got our turn and unfortunately Grant was the one to get it on Christmas! Poor guy!

Today I am sharing my very first Vox Box! I believe this is the first Canadian Vox Box which is very exciting. I was very surprised to receive this box because I had received an email saying that they already filled their quota for boxes, but a week later a box was on my doorstep. Yay!!

 

The first two items I received were Skinny Cow Milk Chocolate Dreamy Clusters

& Skinny Cow Milk Chocolate Heavenly Crisp

 

My thoughts: These were very delicious. Yes they taste different then a regular chocolate but you are still satisfied (and that is the point is it not?) The Clusters reminded me of Turtles with the nuts and caramel. While the Heavenly Crisp had a taste of its own. I prefer the Crispy bar to the clusters but that is just my preference.

NYC Big Bold Curl Mascara (Black)

Impress press on nails

IceBreakers Duo (Raspberry)

 

My Thoughts:

These mints are sweet Raspberry flavored with a hint of mint to it. They have a different shape then other IceBreaker mints I have tried. They have bumpy ridges on one side and smooth on the other. I am not a fan of this particular flavour but they are good enough to keep in my purse for when I need a mint.

NYC Big Bold Plumping Lipgloss in Big City Blush

The package came with this card that explained everything in the box and provided prices for everything, which I think is very useful if you end up loving a product. I also received two coupons for 1 dollar off of NYC Mascara or lipgloss which is awesome because their products are already very affordable. Overall I am very happy and grateful for this box! It is so generous of them to send out these products for people to test out! Can not wait to do some reviews for these products as well!
