December Beauty Product Reviews!


sally hansen hard as wraps + essie polish + insta dri // my new hack to getting tough, shellac-like nails that don't chip for a few days! seriously, it works great and with two coats of any color/brand polish. i never used to pick a base coat, but it makes all the difference in the world. 
sally knows her nail polish, gals.
revlon super lustrous lip gloss in raisin rage & fatal apple // i wanted some gloss to go over some of my favorite lips shades for the holidays for ultimate shine and lasting power.  i had perfect lasting & shiny color through multiple adult beverages! they are not very bright on their own, but paired with my bright/dark red lipsticks, it was a perfect look.
murad clarifying cleanser & clarifying toner // for the harsh winter time, i wanted to make sure i had a skin care regimen that could combat the combination skin without over-drying.  i use the murad cleanser daily with my clarisonic, followed by the toner and I have definitely noticed a difference in clarity & even skin tone. 
it's a 10 leave-in treatment // i heard raves and raves on this product online, and I finally bought a small size to try it out.  i have since re-purchased because i love the way it makes my ends silky and smooth! it also smells like something from my childhood that i can't quite pinpoint, but i love the scent. (seriously, if you know the answer, you have to tell me.)
 i also bought the shampoo/conditioner from the line, but i haven't tried it out yet. 
 these are my favorite beauty product purchases from december! i cannot believe that we are a matter of days away from 2014.  any products out there that i need to try & review? 
is there a cure for post-christmas funk? time to detox!

Current Obsessions

I have been blogging for almost 3 full years here at M of M, and every summer without fail, no matter how many good intentions I have... I fall behind.  I become a total blog slacker.  I still get dressed and I still go out and do things (maybe even more so) but I turn in to a total recluse on this blog.
Maybe it is because the sheer thought of standing outside in the 100% Memphis humidity and tkaing outfit pics?!  Probz.

Anywho... just in the nick of time for summer beginning ending, here are some of my current obsessions right about now :)
Maxi dresses are totally a year round thing for me.  I love layering over them in the fall/winter and rocking them with fun sandals and wedges in the summer.  ASOS has some super amazing ones that I am watching to go on sale.  Also, this model is my favorite... she's gorgeous.
ONE // TWO // THREE


My birthday present to myself was this beauty right here.
Clarisonic Mia 2 in Lime

Seriously, OBSESSED with this investment and if you have been putting off getting one, run to the store right now.  My skin has never been smoother and my pores have NEVER been smaller.  It is worth its tiny little weight in GOLD!


Starting with the Clarisonic, I totally revamped my skin care regimen recently with these three products and I have never been happier.  I do want to invest in a great night moisturizer, so I am definitely taking recs on that!  I have seen amazing results in brightness and even tone in my skin. BIG deal, HUGE!
When I'm not washing my face, you can probably find me tuning in to Big Brother 15.  Say what you want, but it is the only reality show that I can stomach.  And I am OBSESSED!  I love the drama, the crazy comps, and the fact that it comes on three times a week.  Also, I may or may not have subscribed to the 24/7 live video feeds.  Look here, everyone has their vices mmmmmk?  PS I am Team Judd & Team Amanda, for sure.

Please share, a merrymaker always has room for more.
Happy Tuesday!
