What I Could Not Have Lived Without in March | FAVORITES



Looking back, I did a lot in the month of March. It was definitely a pretty busy month for me and it went by super quickly.

In March, I tried out a couple new beauty / makeup products, and found that there are several that I have been using almost religiously because I like them so much. I have yet to find an eyeliner I'm crazy about though...

Beauty Favorites
  1. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Redness Soothing Cream Cleanser
    I use this twice a day and have noticed that it makes my skin a lot less red, and feels more smooth and healthy.
  2. Neutrogena Makeup Remover Cleansing Towelettes
    Most wipes aren't gentle enough for my sensitive skin and eyes but these work great for removing makeup.
  3. Juice Green Apple Peel
    Got this as a free sample and I use it every day after I shower; I don't know if it actually helps my acne but I like the way it leaves me skin after I take it off sooo that's good.
  4. The Body Shop Vineyard Peach Body Butter
    Makes me all peachy =)
  5. NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer
    A friend recommended this to me and I've been using it since; it's lighter than foundation but heavier than BB cream so it's perfect for me...also love the way it smells. Seriously. Smells amazingggg. A little product goes a long way for this as well.
  6. Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Eraser Dark Circles Treatment
    I have really bad eye bags and this product is cheap and effective.
  7. NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer
    Expensive. But worth the investment; this conceals anything and a little bit of product goes a loooong way.
  8. Soap and Glory: One Heck of a Blot Setting Powder
    My skin looks and feels sooo smooth after using this, rather than looking powdery like a lot of products do. Essiebutton recommends it in like, all over her videos so I ordered it and have been using it a lot since. I don't wear it every day but it's been a favorite and I'm almost out of it already.
  9. NYC City Proof Buildable Mascara
    I have a hard time finding a mascara that I like but this one works amazing for me. I always get compliments on my eyes when I wear it and it's super cheap.
  10. NARS Sheer Lipstick: Mayflower
    LOVE Nars lipsticks, this color especially because it's subtle but classy and pretty.
I also experimented a lot with fun places to eat out in Austin, and have otherwise been utilizing some of the same easy meals on a daily basis.

Food Favorites
  1. PBJ
    My go-to any time.
  2. Kashi Chewy Honey Almond Flax Granola Bar
    Great pre-workout snack or a quick breakfast! Super filling and healthy. I don't generally like super sugary or flavorful granola bars and this one is perfect because of all the grains and nuts.
  3. Ricola Natural Honey Herb Cough Drops
    Have been experiencing a sore throat this month; these are  life-saver and they taste great. Light flavor and really eases the pain.
  4. Vintage Heart - Lavendar Latte
    Favorite coffee of the month. (or of all time, whatever)
  5. Galaxy Cafe
    Fav restaurant of the month. I love it I love it I love it! Cheap and moderately healthy, good coffee, great sweet potato fries.
If you read my blog posts you also already know that I have been absolutely obsessed with weylie's vlog channel: wahlietv, and have been watching at least one of her vlogs a day. I find her personality very refreshing and inspiring, and I love watching her take care of her pets and her lifestyle is something similar to what I am aiming for.

Internet / App Favorites
  1. Wahlietv
  2. Yelp
    Use it err day.
  3. VSCOCam
    I use this app on my phone to edit my Instagram photos and eveerryyonne asks me what I use to edit them so I guess it does a pretty good job.
I have strangely not been listening to much new Korean music this month, but have rediscovered some old favorites of mine and a couple new, American songs as well :)

Music
  1. JYJ - Be My Girl
  2. TVXQ - Good Night
  3. G-Dragon - In the End
  4. Se7en - Love Story
    Always on repeat while doing laundry...
  5. Rihanna feat Kanye West & Paul McCartney - Four Five Seconds
  6. J.Cole - Crooked Smile
    I really, really like the lyrics to this song.

And there you have it. March was filled with a lot of eating and exploring, and I'm looking forward to what April brings. I am hoping that I get a chance to do more cooking and DIY, as well as discovering new music to listen to.

Goals for April
  1. Take more photos
  2. Write in my journal more often
  3. Eat a more varied diet, but eat out less
  4. Save money
  5. Download more music
  6. Visit home
  7. Take care of my body better
  8. More blog posts about life, rather than focusing on my daily life
