The Liebster Award

My first Tag! So I was nominated by Vero from VeroSays  check out her page! She's a beauty blogger, you'll love her!!

The Liebster award is intended to give some exposure to small blogs with less than 200 followers.

The rules are as follows:

-  Link back to the blogger who nominated you.

-  Answer the 11 questions given to you by the blogger who nominated you.

-  Nominate 11 other bloggers with less than 200 followers.

 

-  Go to the blogs you nominated and notify them of your nomination.

 

-  Give your nominees 11 questions to answer.

 

The questions I got from Vero:

1. Drugstore or high end nail polish?

I'd have to say drugstore.. I feel like you can find really good nail polish's from your local drugstore for a cheaper price! Some people feel like high end nail polish might work better, but I disagree. I've been able to find really good brands from my local CVS/Walgreens.

2.Favorite Mascara?

I LOVE "The Rocket"  by Maybelline! Its like Six bucks I believe, and I simply adore it. I have black hair, black eyebrows, dark eyes, so "very black" Mascara works the best for me. I only have to apply one coat and it literally makes me eyelashes look 2x longer!

3.Holy grail under eye concealer? 

Bare Minerals Correcting Concealer! Works great!!

4. If you had to wear a full face of one brand what would it be?

Definitely will have be NARS. It can get a little pricey but definitely worth it. Cheaper brands aren't as great!

5. Coffee or tea?

Honestly? Neither! if I really had to choose I'd say tea! But Iced coffee isn't that bad though.

6. Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts?

Ugh, very tough! I would have to say Drinks from Starbucks. Dunkin Donuts has awesome food but the drinks aren't all my favorite but I can honestly say I like 70% of the drinks from Starbucks!!

 

7. How long have you been blogging? Why did you start?

I've been blogging on and off for about a month. I originally got the idea from my sister-in-law Vero from VeroSays. She introduced me into blogging and it seemed like a great thing to do when your a stay at home mom! I got into it and I love it! I cant blog myself as often as id like but I'm always reading!

8. Apple computer or other?

I'm not too sure about this one.. I have an HP myself and I feel like it works fine! I'm sure an apple computer might be a little better but my computer lets me do what I need to do, therefore I don't mind it.

9. Do you check prices before buying makeup products?

Definitely. As a mother to a newborn, I often have things to buy for him, they grow so quick so I'm always shopping clothes for him, or buying more diapers, wipes, etc. so sometimes I come across products that are $30, $40 and I have to walk away, because I know that with those $30, $40, I can easily buy my son a pack of one hundred and something diapers!

10.Favorite you-tubers and/or bloggers?

I like to look at blogs for product ideas. but I love to look at Youtube for actual tutorials. I'm more of  hands on type of girl so if I see a picture of a product on someone's blog ill look up tutorials on that product on youtube before actually purchasing it, especially if its an expensive product! So my fav Youtuber would have to be SelinaLundstrom, shrutiarjunanand, but my all time favorite is MissMaven! I have to look for people with similar skin complexions so that I know what type of products will work best for my skin tone.

11.What are you looking forward to this month?

This month I am really looking forward to working on finishing all the paperwork I need in order to move over seas with my husband! If you've read my first post, you'll know my husband is active duty in the Air force! so I'm working hard to do everything I have to do in order for my son and I to finally be with him again.

Its fall... And i need it!

Fall, my favorite! So, originally my blog was meant for cosmetics & beauty products, but this? I just have to share! Fall season, comes with fall clothes, fall shoes and my all time favorite, ACCESSORIES! Accessories can make any boring outfit stand out!

Accessories don't have to be expensive to make an outfit look good! Around the end of October when it's getting closer to winter, the wind can get a little brutal, and those ears will have you asking for a hat! I don't know about you, but hat hair isn't my favorite. Ear muffs aren't for me either but these cuties will keep your ears warm & make your outfit look awesome!

Meet my little sister Julie! In all the pictures she's wear a plain, black shirt and you'll see how these accessories really stand out! Here she's wearing a knitted head wrap that I bought from Spring for $12.00

 

On a budget? $7.99 from Charlotte Russe!

 

  

This one was actually a gift from my grandmother! Handmade! So if any of you are into knitting, give it a try!

Ok, ok.. It's cold! Maybe some of you do like hats! Not all hats ruin your hair

 

 

Woven beanies! Love culture.

 

Knitted beanie, Icing by claires.





Here's another handmade gift from grandma!

 

 

 

 

Didn't convince ya with the head warmers or the hats? Scarfs look good on ANYONE and there's so many patterns, they make anything look good!

 



Macys. so many different colors, pain & simple, bright or dull!
 

 

Go big or go home! Gift from my husband when I was visiting in England.

  

 

Patterns, Patterns, Patterns! Aldo.

 

OH, and more patterns! Gift.

 

 

 

 

 

So there you have it! my all time favorite, fall "Must-haves"! let me know what you think, and if you decide to try any! Stay warm, and stay chic!

 

 

Sealed with a kiss,

Betsy xx

 





Its time for some Bloggin'!

  

   Before I start blogging away, I should start off by telling you a little about myself! My name is Betsy, I'm 19 years old, a newly wed to a beautiful Airmen, and I have a baby boy of almost two months. I'm currently a stay at home mom looking for a place where I can check out beauty product ideas and post a few myself!

My wedding Sept. 03-2013

My soon-to-be 2 month old; Yoshua smiling away! 

  
I've been on here for about 2-3 weeks just looking at other blogs and thinking to myself, "When am I going to write my first post?" Well, after a months worth of convincing and a long talk with my sister-in-law about blogging and some tips, I finally decided "TODAY is the day!" And here I am! Like I said, I originally got into looking at blogging from my sister-in-law, Who also is into the make-up/beauty product world and you can check out her blog as well!  

Veronica from VeroSays!

    Now that I've finished my first post, I'm going to work on posting some ACTUAL make-up posts! Hope my first post is "Blog-world-Acceptable"!!

Sealed with a kiss,

Betsy xx
