Corn Maze Fun




Good morning loves!

I had such a great weekend and felt like I should share what I got up to with you guys. 
On Friday, we partied a little too much... When Saturday morning rolled around though we pulled ourselves out of bed bright and early and headed to a corn maze. Neither of us had ever been and despite the weather being less than desirable we had so much fun. We might of even had more fun than all the little tykes that were there. There were so many things to do including a petting farm, mini golf, zip line and of course the maze itself! Of course I wanted to head immediately to the animals and give them all my love. I probably spent a good half hour to forty minutes hanging out in the goat pen. Then we played the mini golf which I was disappointed in, but we're mini golf maniacs and have played some really wicked courses! Then, they had these "rat rollers" which were just a giant piece of tubing on a track and you ran on it like a rat would. Those were my favorite thing although my man and I got going a little too fast on them and both ended up bailing on our faces in the mud but we still had a good laugh about it. The maze wasn't incredibly special or difficult but we probably still spent a good hour walking through it as you can see in the above photo its rather large.

It was such a great weekend and I'm happy we made the best of the bad weather. I'm not about to let winter win that soon.

How was your weekend, what did you do?

Maybelline's Colossal

 

 
Hello loves.

The lighting in my bathroom where I normally take my photos was garbage this morning as it was dark and gloomy outside. Would you believe me if I told you it's already snowing in Alberta? No, well it is and I hate every minute of it.

The Maybelline Colossal Mascara used to be my HG. It lengthened and volumized the lashes like no other could for me. With so many other mascaras being released I took a long break but recently picked it up again and well...Maybelline's either changed the formula or it really wasn't as great as I remembered it. Don't get me wrong this still makes the lashes look wonderful but it's not an even an hour before I start noticing tiny black flakes under my eyes and around my nose. It flakes off so horribly and they stick so tightly to the skin that you can't even just brush them off, you have to pick it off which usually ends in chunks of my foundation being removed from my nails. I wish this was as good as I remembered because it really does create a lovely look. Ah well, luckily there are many others out there that perform even better than this. Loreal Lash Paradise is a fantastic one!

What's your favorite mascara?

COLAB Dry Shampoo


Good morning loves.

Who else tries to avoid washing their hair in the shower every day?
Honestly it's not good for the hair as it strips the natural oils and to be honest with you guys I just can't be bothered every day. Call me lazy if you will but some days I just want to get up and go.

That's where dry shampoo becomes a savior (or fun buns).  Bastiste is my regular go to but these were on sale, two for less than the price of one! How could I pass that up?
Unfortunately this brand can't even come close to my beloved Batiste. These leave a white film on the hair that no matter how hard you try to rub it in it just doesn't seem to disappear and they leave a really awful, gross feeling layer on the hair leaving it feeling like straw. To say I was let down was an understatement. I can't believe how poor of a product this was.

Batiste, you will always be number one.

Do you wash your hair everyday, why?
