I haven't been this excited about getting the mail since college

I was really excited when I got home & checked the mail tonight. Both my beauty subscriptions had arrived!

My first ipsy Glam Bag!

I think the fact that they package in these cute makeup bags is adorable. 

And my Birchbox

I don't know how excited I am about the haul itself, but it did make me realize how quickly I'll get behind on trying things if I don't get to it faster. 

Exploration time!

Since my last post (which has been quite a while, I know) I chopped my hair off.

It's been pretty weird getting used to it. One if biggest challenges has been just how naked my face feels when I look in a mirror. I decided to handle that by renewing my exploration into makeup. I now have subscriptions to both Birchbox and ipsy. I'll start posting the contents as they arrive, and then, if I'm feeling bold, I'll post some of the experiments.
