Makeup Mondays: Dose of Colors Review

I told y'all, I'd be linking up my latest YouTube videos on here for Makeup Mondays.

Let me just say, creating all of these things {blog posts, videos, etc}, has totally become the best passion project ever :)


Hope y'all enjoy!


In case you ever need to link back to The Fashionista Housewife channel on YouTube.

Here's my latest video:



This video is all about the Dose of Colors liquid lipsticks that I have been mentioning in the past few weeks. I'm swatching 5 of the colors, and giving a full review on them. 




Other videos on my channel:



This look is gorgeous, and soft, and so complimentary to all skin tones!



This hair is all about looking like you just came out of the water, and pranced up on the beach like the goddess you are! 




This makeup look is bold on the eyes, and really brings out the daring side in all of us! 



I hope y'all love these videos as much as I do. A lot of time and effort go into them. As well as the blog.

But I love doing this! I love it. It doesn't feel like a 'job' to me. Or something that 'I have to do'. 

And that to me, is passion. 

So excited to hear what y'all think. If there's any other videos or blog posts you'd like to see, please leave a comment below or on a video. I'd love to know :)

Friday Favorites!

Well, well, well... here  we are again! Welcome back my dears :)

Happy Friday! 

Friday Favorites

ONE

My ultimate favorite??? A clean home!!! Anyone else? 


I love to walk in the door and have a clean home. Nothing on the floor, and the countertops aren't cluttered with old dishes that we haven't cleaned yet... 

That being said, sometimes it's inevitable that your home will not be as clean as you like it... {uh hmmm.. boys. I'm looking at you!} So, I'm learning to embrace a messy home. Why? Because that means you have the ones you love around you to make the mess :) 


But, it still doesn't take away the fact that I'd love it to be clean! So, the new rule that we've been following for the past month is that we have to have the kitchen clean before we leave to go anywhere, and before we go to bed. That way, you always wake up and come home to a clean house. And let me tell you, it's been working! 

So I encourage you to put something like this in place for your home! It doesn't take long to clean up when everyone's helping, and there's a lot less stress when the first thing you're seeing ISN'T a dirty home :)

Happy cleaning!

Have any of y'all been watching Duck Dynasty,  and Jep & Jessica?? 


I seriously cannot get enough of these shows. 

Somethin' about this family just makes me wanna be friends with them :)

The mama's in the show just seem so real, you can see their everyday struggles with their kids, and they're doing it all themselves! They love Jesus, and love their family, and that's why I wanna be friends with them! 

Love. And I love that they pray before they end every show. With such a large platform, I love that they use that to get the word out about Jesus!


Plus, they're hilarious.

So I mentioned last week to y'all about the Dose of Colors liquid lips... 

LOVE. Cannot get enough of them. So I decided to be prepared for summer {because that's the responsible thing to do, right?? ;) } and I picked up 3 more colors....

I mean, what's a girl to do?? These are so comfortable, they have beautiful colors, they don't move from your lips, and they really don't ever need to be reapplied. 

Have I convinced you yet? No? Well, let me just say, no more reapplying your lipstick, no more lipstick on the teeth, no more lipstick smudges on your hubby {even though I think it's cute on him, he doesn't like it quite as much}, and you hardly have to think about the color moving or fading. 

Am I sponsored by them? Absolutely not. Did I pay for these with my own money? Absolutely I did. I just don't want y'all to miss out on amazing products just because you aren't 100% convinced. I urge you to pick at least one color {maybe one you could see yourself wearing everyday} and watch the easiness of it change your day! 

Treat yourself ladies :)

I now have Stone, Bare with Me, Coral Crush, Pinky Promise, and Merlot. 

{Stone}

{Bare with Me}

{Coral Crush}

{Pinky Promise}

{Merlot}

The colors that I would think could be an everyday color for most women would be Stone, Bare with Me, and Truffle {I don't have that one}.  I have heard that Stone is better for cool skin tones { if your veins show up blue} and Truffle is better for warm skin tones {if your veins show up green}. Bare with Me is a perfect everyday nude. But honestly, I love all the colors. And I know you won't be disappointed. Have some fun with a new lippie :)

I will be doing a review on these on YouTube, so keep an eye out for that video if you want swatches and a full review!

These Kirkland rugs... Don't you love it?!


Our color scheme for our home is Dark browns, deep red, and mustard. It sounds a little odd, but it's very calming and soothing colors. For the Spring and summer, we add in green and white. For the Fall and winter time, we add in orange and deep greens.

So this rug goes great. And it's only about $7. So I got 2 and put one down in front of my sink, and one down right when you walk in the front door. I love the pop of color, and these could honestly go with so many color schemes!


And Coley likes it too ;)


FIVE

My last favorite??? 

Easter

Candy. 

Stop it more. 

I love the Cadbury Creme Eggs, The Robins Eggs, and The Reese's Eggs. 


Any one else with me on these? Sorry if I just made your tummy growl ;) 

Guess you'll need to make a trip to the store!





Speaking of food, don't miss out on the recipes I shared for you this week!

Yay yay yay! It's FriYAY!!

Can't wait to share our week with y'all!

FOOOOOOOD

Y'all, it's my love language. I love making food for my family. I can't wait until we grow our family and have all of these holiday dinners. Yes! Love. 

But until then, I am more than ecstatic to just be making it for my hubby and I :)

Check out these posts for the amazing recipes from this week!

{This stuff is amazing! Easy peasy, and super quick to throw together. You'll never buy jarred sauce again}


{Y'all, these are super addicting. So be careful of how many people you ask to share. You may want to keep the whole batch for yourself #NoShame}


Make sure you check back this coming week as well. I have some interesting recipes that are SUPER easy, but will bring some more flavor into your lives :)

These jeans, y'all! You will not know what you did without them. I am constantly getting complements, and they're pretty comfy! 

They were super cheap when I bought them and I am loving them! Get yourself a pair! I must say, my hubby likes them too ;) 

Vigoss Distressed Skinny Jeans {I did the juniors sizing because it's cheaper and the fit does not bug me}

My new fave y'all... 

Who here likes a gorgeous lip color? Actually, who here LOVES a gorgeous lip color?? #MeMeMe

So, I have recently discovered my favorite liquid lipstick formula {and colors!}

It's by the brand Dose of Colors. 


Anna, a super sweetheart, runs this company and she has made some amazing break throughs in the beauty community! 

I recently picked up the colors Stone and Bare with Me. I'm heading back for more this week! Ha!

They are $18 a piece, their staying power is around 4-6 hours {depending on your eating habits}, and the matte formula is extremely comfortable. 

I have tried virtually every liquid lipstick out there {makeup junkie confessions}. And I can tell you, these are the best!

Speaking of the beauty community....

Your homegirl just joined it! 

I recently just made my YouTube channel, and my first video went up on Wednesday. So you guys are some of the first to know! 

I'd love it if you'd check it out, subscribe/thumbs up/comment on the video, and just let me know your feedback! 

Here's My Channel! 


I am so excited to grow in both of these amazing communities, and I am so glad you guys will be along for the ride. 

These videos will be taking the place of Makeup Mondays on the blog. However, I am happy to link up the videos on here for you if that's easier to find! 

I hope you enjoy! 



Hint, you'll be seeing a little bit of Coley bear if you stick around in the video long enough :)

I officially started my Half Marathon training this week! I have already logged 7 1/2 miles {a lot for me! Lol}

And you know what, my mood has improved! That was a little bit of an unexpected benefit, but it makes all the hard work worth it! 

I'm using my Nike plus Running app to help with it. It logs your miles for you and has a coaching feature to keep you motivated. Which is something I definitely need ;) 

I believe the app is free. And it really helps! You can also play music while it's running. Which most apps do not have....

Anyways, I just highly recommend it :)


If anyone out there is looking to start running or needing workouts, let me know! I can easily set up a weekly post with just that!


I hope y'all have a wonderful weekend. Can't wait to see what your week was like!
