REVIEW: wet n' wild mega plump DOUBLE THREAT mascara

         
              The tube has two  sides. One for the upper lashes and one for the lower lashes.





          This is one coat of Mega- plump mascara. It's very easy to apply, and not clumpy.


  This is two coats of the Mega-plump mascara. Did get a little clumpy, but not too much.

Over all, I would give this mascara a 7/8 out of 10 !

Book Chat | An abundance of Katherine's by John Green |


Hey! You know , I would honestly not be surprised if you completely forgot about me but I'm sorry I've been gone for so long. Today I want to start a new series on this blog called  "Book chats ." Basically whenever I read and finish a book , I will be reviewing it, and talking (or writing in this case ) about the basic and necessary information you would probably would want to know about the book. Today I will be reviewing a book called - "An abundance of Katherines "by John Green.
This would be the second book that I have read by John Green and to be honest I didn't really love it as much as I loved Paper Towns .The book is about a guy named Colin who basically ONLY  dates Katherines with a "K" .
He  is a child prodigy and really just wants to matter in this world.  They just graduated . Katherine number 19 breaks his heart and he becomes super depressed . His friend Hassan suggested that they go on a road trip and basically during this road trip he tries to come up with an equation or theorem to predict his future relationships and see what how they will end . 
Through out the book he goes through each and every Katherine and talks about their relationship and how it ended. 
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
Out of 10, I would give this book 6 .

Why I didn't like it: 
   
- written in third person point of view . (I prefer 1st person point of view) 
-He kept talking about the same thing over and over and over.

Why I liked it: 

-funny 
- relativley an easy read 
°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°
That is it for this book review.  I hope you guys enjoyed it and found it helpfu! If you guys want me to do to do more of these I would love to continue this series!

Hair Care Routine!


   Hello! So today I want to share with you guys my hair care routine. I like to keep it really simple. 
                                         
  BACK ROUND ABOUT MY HAIR:
The shortest I have ever cut my hair was in 5th grade and it  was a bob. the longest hair pieces were a little above my chin! I regretted it shortly and ever since, and never drastically cut it again. I get trims 2-3 times a year to get split ends off. My hair is naturally straight. I'v also never dyed it ! It naturally lightens in the summer. 



    This is the shampoo and conditioner that I'v been using recently. I don't really stick to only one shampoo/ conditioner. I just switch it around once I'm done with the bottle. Apparently this one will ignite your inner shine hehe.



My hair gets tangled really easily,and its the worst after I wash it! So I have been using this leave-In Detangler, and I love it. It truly does de-tangle my hair! I find that it works best if I put this on while my hair is still damp.


I rarely ever curl my hair, but the ends of my hair still get pretty dry. So to help, I use this Argan oil. It's a leave-in conditioner that strengthens and makes your hair shine!



This is a product that I barely use but its the Garnier Fructis Style anti- humid hairspray. Its not super strong and sticky which is perfect for me!(plus it contains natural bamboo extract!)



   I was really really really really really really really really really really tempted to spray the camera!
If you have any other requests then leave them down below! 
                                                                                                    xo, Anna

~Being Grateful ~


I feel like often we are so busy doing things, thinking about what we want and  should have,  that we forget to be thankful for what we have right now. 
I have been thinking about this so much lately, I can't help but wonder- 
What does it truely mean to be grateful?  
As a little child I was always told to be thankful for everything that I have, but I always let it just slip by.  But only recently I actually started to look for the good in every situation and instead of wishing for a whole bunch of things I  don't have,  be thankful for all the things I DO have. Sometimes I  find myself taking big things for granted like warm water,  a bed, heating,  family ect...
There are people that have it  so much worse than you and I. People have no food,  or shelter,  or electricity,  and yet  I get frustrated when the WiFi is slow or my phone battery is dead. So what exactly is my point? When times get rough,  or you really want something you can't have,  just think about how fortunate you are to be alive and well.

Happy March! A day in my life.

Hey ! Happy March! today I'm just going to document a day in my life. Today was my little sisters 6th birthday and we decided to go out and do something fun! 




Good morning! I woke up pretty early today and so I decided to do some Bible reading/ studying !


    I love to exercise in the morning! So I decided to do some cardio and pilates. I love it so much!
 

   This is my sister and I. I can't believe she's already six ! Seems like yesterday she was born haha.


      For breakfast, I had an egg, pickles, and peppers. (hate peppers so I didn't eat them haha)


   We decided to go to a roller-blading rink and it looks easy,but it's not! But there was fun music and     a disco ball that made the whole place look so cool!

                           Here's a random picture of ice in a cup, and my dads hands haha.


   We ended of the day with a little celebration and ate some cake. This is red velvet cake (which is        my favorite kind!) Good night !
