Lazy Week

Last week I was extremely lazy. Is it just me or do weeks following vacations always feel slightly less than productive? Maybe it was the fact that we road tripped and couch surfed, but all I wanted to do when we got back to California was nothing.

Here is a snippet of a very large game of Cards Against Humanity that I played with some very good friends over the weekend:

Smart Lash: Day 45

About a month or so I bought a product from dermstore.com called Smart Lash, which claims to lengthen and thicken your lashes within 60 days without a prescription (like Latisse)

Originally I was super super stoked to try this hoping it would be a miracle worker, but I sit here on day 45 feeling large amounts of disappointment. (I know, I still have a few more days!)

Though my lashes aren't any longer, they are certainly thicker, and with the addition of mascara they definitely appear fuller and longer than before.

I don't know if I would continue to pay 125$ for this product (I got lucky and scored a "deal" from the website dermstore.com and paid only like $30) because I'm pretty positive you can get a prescription for Latisse for like the same price, and that literally has insane results.

But if you have sparse lashes it might be something to try if you can swoop that introductory offer.

**(Also some things to consider is that around the same time I started taking the supplement Biotin & Cod Liver Oil, so maybe that has also influenced my lashes too.)

Stolen From The Boys

Most of the time all I want to wear are some baggy boyfriend jeans, and an oversized tee with a great layering jacket.. this was totally one of those days.

I recently adopted this jacket from Aritzia and have yet to take it off. It is so awesome to dress up or down and I'm going to be such a repeat offender with this on the blog so let me apologize in advance for how often you're probably going to see it. 

The jacket was a seriously perfect purchase because it layers so well, and after spending a few days in Utah, it was great to have with the constantly changing weather.

Product of the Week: Almay Eye Makeup Remover Pads

Going on vacation is amazing, however I find myself having to constantly sacrifice large parts of my beauty routine.

During a recent drug store haul I picked up these Almay Eye Makeup Remover Pads (for only $5.50!) in hopes that they would be the perfect replacement for traveling makeup removal. Normally for travel I happen to be a HUGE fan of the Say Yes to Cucumbers facial cleansing wipes, however they really stink at removing eye makeup, and I didn't feel like bringing my messy liquid makeup remover this time.

I could not have been more happy with the Almay purchase and have to say that these are perfect for travel. There is no liquid inside so they are ideal to pack in your bag for flights, (they won't spill and you don't have to worry about ounce size).

These get a 5/5 in my book.

I've Moved!

Since I bought my domain "Chopstick-Chic," I have been having feelings of detachment. Normally I don't have commitment issues at all, but for some reason the name wasn't sticking for me.

So unfortunately I will not be posting under this domain anymore and instead have moved to another domain that feels so much more me.

From now on, I'll be posting at this new domain.
