LIFE UPDATE - 2017

Hello lovelies, It's been a while since my last post so I thought I'd do a little update. I've been really busy with my now 6 month old baby, Being a first time mom has been really hard for me at times. Like they say, it's all worth it though. I've recently decided to start doing daily MINI VLOGS on my YouTube channel. I've been posting a new video every day. You can watch them here: www.youtube.com/conaviconavi please share, thumbs up, and subscribe I'd really appreciate it. I've also been posting on my Instagram a lot. My insta name is : ConnieAvilove My baby turns 7 months on March 19th. I can't believe he's half a year old already! I will have a new makeup post up soon! In the meantime please check out my YouTube channel! Until next time xoxo -C

THE MOST AFFORDABLE RING LIGHT.

Hi lovelies, As you can tell by the title of this post I'm going to let you all know of a super affordable ring light! I dont know about you all but I've always wanted a ring light! It's great for taking makeup pictures and also for my YouTube videos! The one I originally wanted (which is very popular) was more than $200. I didnt really want to spend that much on a ring light so I never got one. Recently I went on google and found a SUPER affordable ring light on EBAY! Here is the video of me unboxing it and the rest of the details including price! I also linked the ring light in the description box as well. Please thumbs up, share, and subscribe to my YouTube channel! Also, follow me on Instagram! @ ConnieAvilove Until next time! xoxo -C

$1 EYESHADOW PALETTE!

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!

3 MONTH OLD BABY UPDATE!

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...
