The Confessions of a Newlywed: February 2012

Oh. My. Stars. These things might be my new favorite. They were so easy! My best friend Connie came over a few months ago and made these amazing stuffed strawberries she saw on pinterest. I meant to put them up then, but just remembered! These are a great dessert for a party!

Recipe:

Strawberries- You'll need lots!

Cheesecake Stuffing- Connie bought it by the cream cheese

Graham cracker topping

Cut the tops of the strawberries off and dig a little pit in them. Take a zip lock bag and fill it with the cheesecake stuffing. Cut a small part of the bottom corner off, and swirl it into your pitted strawberries. Lightly sprinkle with graham cracker topping. Voila! I'm pretty sure I ate about 30 of these... so pace yourselves.

I've always had super sensitive skin- in fact, most makeup will inevitably cause a break out on my face upon use. I discovered this amazing brand through my sister-in-laws. It's called "Everyday Minerals," and is a natural, vegan, mineral makeup brand. I LOVE IT. This is the first brand that has actually cleared up my face. Their makeup is very high quality, and super affordable. It ends up being cheaper than store brand makeup for me because it lasts so long. In the pictures above, you will see the long-haired kabuki brush. I own two of these already, and they are better than any professional brush I have ever used. At $12.99, I consider it quite a steal! :) I use their bases (foundations) in semi-matte. It provides incredible coverage, and looks so natural. I strongly recommend trying their blush in the shade "Nick Nack". I've always had trouble finding blush that does not look orange on my face. This shade is so subtle, that you can hardly tell I'm wearing any. Have you tried this brand before? How did you like it?
