Hi lovelies! Today I wanted to share this $1 ( yes $1) eyeshadow palette! I bought this palette at a dollar store near me and I hadn't looked at it until a few days ago. I originally bought it, along with a bunch of other things, to do a dollar store makeup challenge. However, I never got around to it. I finally opened up the palette a few days ago and decided to swatch it for my Instagram and I was pleasantly surprised! The palette is by ColorMates and it has 12 shades. They actually feel very nice, smooth and even a bit buttery! Not too powdery at all! Here are the swatches of all the shades on my arm (no primer, applied dry) Here is a picture WITH FLASH. I think for only being $1 this palette looks pretty darn good! I'm even thinking of doing some GET READY WITH ME videos using this palette. Let me know if that's something you would like to see!

Hello lovelies! Today I wanted to post a quick baby update. My son Leon just turned 3 months old last Friday (the 19th) He's been babbling and a lot more playful. Unfortunately for me he still doesn't sleep through the night. He has silent reflux and a pretty bad startle reflex. I believe those things contribute to him getting only hours of sleep at a time. He weighs around 14lbs right now and is only getting heavier! The last couple of weeks were a struggle, I'm not going to lie, I thought I was going to lose my mind. He went to get his shots, was fussy because of that, after that he went through a growth spurt, was extra fussy because of that as well. Not to mention I also had an ER scare. One night he was screaming bloody murder and nothing would calm him, so I decided to take him to the ER. You can hear all about that on one of my videos on my YouTube channel.. www.youtube.com/conaviconavi Anyways, now weeks later it finally seems like he...

Hey all, here's a little update vlog on where I've been and what's been going on with my baby.. I discovered he has silent reflux after noticing some symptoms and looking them up online. I then confirmed when I took him for a check up to his pediatrician. It's been more difficult since but things are getting better slowly. Watch my vlog below for details!
