Down the Rabbit Hole but Looking Fresh in PEEK!!

Folks, it's been a WILD month. A month full of big moments...bittersweet moments; Chapters ending and new ones beginning. This Momma, Friend, Teacher, Wife has experienced the full gamut of emotions this month and I'm exhausted, relieved, excited, and most of all blessed and full of pride! Let's just run through the major events that have happened in the last four weeks--

*Mother's Day

*Angel's Baseball Games

*My Little Man's High School Graduation--my baby!!

*My favorite students of all time graduating

*School of Rock (the musical 2x)

*Tying up the crazy loose ends of the school year

*Summer Break!

*Mini Family Reunion at the Beach!!

*Family Graduation parties

*Winery Outings

*Father's Day

*(A little interview for a new job....eeeek!!)

*And Little Lady's FIDM Graduation

Lot's of stuff, right?!! It's been exhilarating. My Little Lady was blessed with the opportunity to intern with PEEK beauty for a short time which I was super excited about!! I had become familiar with PEEK through a lip balm that I received in one of my Birchboxes. The product is a natural plumping lip balm in the perfect peachy nude color called Nom Nom.

With so many events and not a lot of time I was drawn to PEEK cosmetics when getting ready. The products are solid!! I'm hooked on the eyeshadows!! They go on effortlessly with excellent coverage and the nicest satin finish. The product wears perfect ALL DAY LONG and has the most beautiful finish. I found myself taking to the same routine using Eye Will Stay 250K8 long-wearing eyeshadows with a MAC paint primer, Stubborn Brown powerpoint eyeliner, They're Real mascara from Benefit Cosmetics and finished off with Peek's Nom Nom lip balm. Easy, pretty, and the perfect "everyday" look! Thank you PEEK Beauty for providing the media that allowed me to look "put together" when there was chaos in abundance!! Haha!!

So what has life thrown at you in the past month?? I would love to know!! xx

He thought I was 24!!!!

I am literally weeks away from turning 30 years old and to tell you the truth….very excited about it. I’m not all caught up in feeling like I’m getting old and all that hoopla. I’ ve always thought I’ ve looked young for my age and have enjoyed growing up and maturing. I was taken aback recently when somebody I see on a regular basis due to work related duties commented on me being the same age as they were after telling me they were 24 years old….I was shocked. I was like, “honey, you’re just a baby!” and he commented back about how we were the same age and I was like, “NO……I’m hitting 30 here!” He was really surprised. Well I thought about this little fortunate exchange of words for a while. What about me make people think I am younger than what I actually am? I’ ve always been on more of the mature side. My best friends are all older than me….even by 8 or more years. So it’s not me acting immature that makes me look young. I’ ve had two kids so I don’t have that cute hip body an...

the AHHH-MAZING: Urban Defense

Whoa! I consider myself a pretty loyal person. Once I find a great product I usually stick with it. I have been using the same tinted moisturizer for the last couple of years and I truly love it but when I saw that Urban Decay came out with their own version, "Urban Defense" I couldn't get my mind off of wanting to try it out. It just so happened that I had ran out of my other product and was strolling by Sephora last week when I decided to cheat on my faithful tinted moisturizer and purchase Urban Defense (in Halo--light) by Urban Decay. Oh my goodness! I LOVE IT! The product glides on nicely and has the perfect sheer coverage I love. It's lightweight, smells nice, and my favorite result is that it does not leave my face shiny! I'm not a big foundation lover--especially during the hot summer months-- so when I can use a tinted moisturizer that gives me the sheer coverage I like and protects with a SPF 20--I am in skincare Heaven! My, hmmm - hmmm, fine lines are l...
