It Cosmetics Bye Bye Under Eye Concealer Review

Okay ladies listen up because I have a little secret to share with you! It's magic in the form of a small tube and goes by the name of Bye Bye Under Eye.

This concealer from It Cosmetics is the most amazing stuff I come across! I am one who gets circles under my eyes.... you know the dark kind that leave you feeling like crap?? The kind that always make your friends ask you if you are tired or ask you if you got enough sleep last night?? Yeah... those kind. For me, it doesn't matter how much sleep I got or how well rested I am. Those circles are just there.
I have tried many different kinds of concealers and while they all do the job and help... they just don't work like this stuff here. This stuff lasts ALL DAY LONG. And it acts almost like an eraser! As you apply those dark areas and imperfections just disappear right before your eyes. I have also used this for small blemishes on my cheeks and it hides everything!

Just be careful because it is thick and a little goes a long way. So you only need a small amount!

What I also love about this is it doesn't make me break out. I have very sensitive skin and a lot of things will make me break out but not this stuff!

You can find this and It Cosmetics whole line at Ulta (the most amazing place for makeup and beauty products). This store is seriously the best place to shop. 
Do you have a favorite concealer you can't live without? Have you tried this one before? I want to know! I am always looking for new products to try! Post below and let me know!

The best way to make your Shakeology.

One question I get asked a lot is how to make your Shakeology. Now there are a TON of recipes out there and everyone prefers theirs a little different. I have my go to way for my Shakeology and for me personally, it's the only way.
When I made my very first Shakeology ever I had a hard time getting it down. It was thick and it was almost like cake batter to me. It took me a few times to get it just right.!
So I wanted to share with you guys my favorite way to make mine in case you are having a hard time getting it to your liking!

Rule # 1: You MUST blend your Shakelogy. Blending it makes it soooo much better! I don't mind mine shaken with a little ice and water but blending is a must!
So get your blender out and get ready for the most delicious, smooth, creamy shake!
You will need:
-Shakeology
-Almond milk
-Bananas ( I prefer mine frozen. I just peel, break them in half and stick them in the freezer)
-Peanut butter
-8 ice cubes
-water

I prefer Vegan Chocolate and Vegan Tropical Strawberry Shakeology but this recipe will work with any flavor! Trust me... I have tried it on all of them ;)
Just add everything into the blender, mix and enjoy :) :)

There are so many recipes out there that you can try. When you order your Shakeology it comes with a recipe chart that gives you TONS of options! So you can try something new every day!

If you have a favorite recipe I want to hear it! Post below and let's share :)

An Honest review on Honest products

A few months ago I started doing my research on all natural cleaning. Like any other girl out there I am OBSESSED with Pinterest and so began the crazy pinning. I was amazed when I started doing my research. Just like dangerous chemicals put in our food, there are dangerous chemicals put in our laundry soap and cleaning products. During my research I came across The Honest Company. I was so intrigued when I started reading about Jessica Alba and her reasoning behind starting The Honest Company. I become very interested in giving some of these products a try. I am all about a clean home. Cleaning is so therapeutic to me.

I was one that would buy every cleaning product out there because it promised to get my toilet cleaner and whiter. It would leave my floors shining and spotless, My counters would glisten. Underneath my sink was filled with tons and tons of cleaning products. It didn't matter to me that when I was cleaning my bathroom I would have to open all the windows and spray and then run out and get some air for a couple minutes. Those stinky smelly sprays and gels were going to make my bathrooms super duper clean!

So I started reading this book called Healthy Child Healthy World. Now I know what your thinking... Tasha... you don't have a child so why are you reading this book?? This book is a MUST read for anyone! Even if you don't have children it's a great read! One day my husband and I are going to have a family and when we do have children I want to make sure I am giving them the safest environment I can. So why not do my research now and start making those small changes now?

So let's get back on track here and talk cleaning products. During all my google searches and asking around and my millions pin on Pinterest one company kept coming up.... The Honest Company. I went to there site and looked around and decided to do the free trial! You can try 3 different bundles and you only have to pay $5.95 for shipping and handling. This was a win for me... anytime I can try something before I buy it.. I am in!

After trying these products and falling in love I decided to order some things and really give them a go! I have to say thumbs up to all Honest Products.

I tried everything! The body lotion, detergent, dishwasher soap, hand soap, bathroom cleaner, multi surface cleaner, window cleaner and much more The BEST THING about these products is the smell! Bye bye harsh gagging chemicals, hello fresh and clean. My nostrils and lungs have been thanking me since switching over. So let me just review for you guys a few of these products I have used.

Honest Window Cleaner:One of my favorite things from Honest. I have 3 VERY LARGE dogs and they like to slobber all over our sliding glass doors. This gets my sliding glass doors and windows so clean and streak free. It smells like vinegar which I don't mind because I love vinegar. So winner here!

Honest Dryer Cloths: Want to hear something crazy??? Did you know that most dryer sheets are made with animal fat???! And these dryer sheets are filled dangerous chemicals that can have negative effects on us. The Honest dryer cloths are formulated with plant based ingredients so you don't have to worry about any harsh chemicals here. I love these cloths because they can be used twice. They smell great and they leave my clothes nice and fluffy! :) :)

Honest Toilet Cleaner and Honest Bathroom Cleaner: OH MY GOODNESS!! I LOVE these two products mainly because of the smell. Eucalyptus!!!! The smell is not harsh at all! Before when I was cleaning I was choking, gagging, running out of the bathroom and airing it out. Now I can just spray and wipe. My toilet is clean and my counters look great! I highly recommend these two!

Honest Stain Remover: AHHHH YOU GUYS!!! I cannot talk about this bottle of magic right here enough. I tell everyone about this stuff. My friends, my family, my neighbors. I was skeptical about this stuff at first because I had tried stain removers before and was like ehhh. My "magic bottle" had been sitting under my sink for a while when one night while putting together a puzzle very competitively with my sister she spilled a glass of.... RED WINE on my WHITE CARPET!!! I freaked out and thought crap that's never going to come out. It's RED WINE!!! Let me tell you... that red wine came up like that! No stain, no mark, no evidence that anything had been spilled. I keep this stuff under my sink and in my laundry room! This is a MUST!!!

Honest Multi Surface Cleaner: I really like this cleaner. It cuts grime, cleans my counters, my stove and other surfaces. The smell is amazing!! Its light and clean! :) When I first went to use this on my stove I thought there was no way it would get off some of the stuff that was on there. But it did! This is another must to have.

You want to know the best part about these products? They are not expensive at all! When I first heard about them my thoughts were, oh great I'm going to have to spend a fortune because they are all natural. Nope wrong! They are very reasonably priced AND this company genuinely cares! Every product you purchase they give back! They make a donation to families in need. That right there is GREAT!

So if your looking to go a little more all natural with your cleaning products I HIGHLY recommend The Honest Company products. I am still a huge fan and continue to order. They have great bundle deals that can help you save money in the long run. Check out the site and try a couple things. You will not be disappointed!
