Reviews and Baking

Still postponing the latest "How to be Interesting" blog post.
No car = no adventure... Unless you're in the city. That's a different story.

In my last post, I showed you the worst makeup remover towelette I've ever used: Almay.
This is my preferred makeup remover towelette: Neutrogena.

That's right. I went on a shopping spree at CVS when I was on my way to Dan's house.

First product is the Maybelline Color Tattoo: 70 Barely Branded
The product is very creamy, neutral and shimmery.
I used to have two of those, but then I bought another one which had a hint of blue in it. The first two I bought were bad because they dried up, but I haven't had any unsatisfying experiences with my two latest Maybelline Color Tattoos.

Second product is Maybelline Color Whisper: Who Wore It Red-er
It's a nice bright red with pink tones in it.
The product is moisturizing on the lips and very vibrant.

Third product is Maybelline Color Whisper: A Plum Prospect
I bought this as a spur of the moment. The shade on the lipstick looks very dark, but when I put swatch it or wear it, it's a lot more sheer than its actual appearance.

Fourth product is Batiste Dry Shampoo
I  bought this product because I heard great reviews about it from missglamorazzi on youtube.
I started using it every other day, it feels like it's spraying out powder that just keeps your scalp less oily.
I also have this weird experience where if I don't wash my hair for a day, my scalp becomes really itchy, but this product prevents that.

I have a lot more products being shipped to me, so stay tuned for haul posts.

Also, happy birthday to my mom, which was 2 days ago!!
I wore a pink blazer from Forever21, distressed capris, also from Forever21, and a tank top from Costco.

This was her birthday cake and it's got mangos, blueberries, strawberries and melons. Inside is vanilla cake and mango with lots of cream. It was delicious, and there's still half of it left!

I also made cupcakes last Wednesday, June 12th, for the guys at Dan's apartment.
They tasted better than the cupcakes I made for his birthday.
Orange zest and purple frosting.
