Sounds the trumpets everyone because I have found a new favorite hand cream!

Let me tell you a story… 

Today I was in the airport flying back from Puerto Rico and needed to entertain myself for four hours during my layover. 

I was walking around and noticed that there was a store called The Body Shop close to my departure gate.

When I entered the employees immediately greeted me with smiles and were so helpful. 

After a wonderful experience testing products I decided to purchase three items and unexpectedly at the checkout, I got a bag full of goods for free.

This little gem was inside.

Last night I walked into my dorm and I was greeted by 5 college girls polishing their nails. 

One of them had an Essie polish that I had never seen or heard about. 

Believe me this is rare.

She kindly let me borrow it.

The polish swatched above is called Barefoot in Blue. 

TOMS & Essie collaborated and made this polish to sport on your toes for the national event called One Day Without Shoes. 

The periwinkle blue is inspired by the TOMS flags. 

TOMS is an amazing company because they donate a pair of shoes to a child in need every time they sell a pair. 

A girl that I go to school with was in Nicaragua on a mission trip and even spotted some kids wearing them. 

How awesome!

So with all of that said, the polish is beautiful but unfortunately it was limited edition. 

Darn.

Heading to class today. 

Weather is phenomenal. 

Warm enough for skirts but breezy enough to wear a chambray top. 

I’m a neutrals girl but lately I have enjoyed pops of prints in my outfits. 

Keeps things exciting.

Hi everyone! 

It is so crazy that I have grown so attached to my blog.

I have missed writing posts for you all but my life has been a bit busy lately.

You know trying to balance college work with social life.

That in itself explains where I have been. 

I have also been using my free time to work on a hobby that makes me so happy.

If you like beauty & style videos you can check out my NEW Youtube channel. 

I switched channel names and I am taking a new approach to beauty vlogging. 

Come join me!

I am joing Lipstick&Stockings this month for Manicure March. 

Decided to add an Andrea twist to it and challenge myself to wear polishes that I wouldn’t usually sport. 

If you have been following me for a while you probably know that I LOVE collecting polishes. 

I found these two in Florida for only $1.  

 Packaging quickly caught my eye so of course I had to purchase them.

The fact that I didn’t bring polish remover with me to Florida so I can test these out immediately is killing me.

: Mid Vacation Mani :

I have been stopped everywhere I go just because of my nails.

People ask if they are Shellac or Gel.

Nope just an at home manicure with Loreal’s Tangerine Crush.

Supposedly it’s the color of the year.

One of my favorite beach beauty products.

Soothes the lips while giving a beautiful tint.

The best thing about it is that it’s 100% natural!

When I got done jumping waves this lip balm was still perfectly applied which means that my lips absorbed it nicely. 

I have heard of the Revlon Lip Butters but haven’t found a need to purchase one because they are so bulky. 

This little guy fits perfectly in my pocket and is super rich in color.
