Update/ Tmi tag

Hey everyone I know I've been kinda m.i.a. on my blog but I am back. :) I've been focusing a lot on my youtube channel and I've been meaning to blog but I kinda haven't had the chance since my boyfriend was visiting me for my birthday week. Now that he is gone I will have time to focus on my blog and channel, it's kinda a bittersweet thing if you ask me.

Anyway, I have been planning future blog post as well as slowly testing out products to review for y'all, trust me there is a lot of reviews coming. So this time away from blogging has been a bit productive if I do say so myself. I have uploaded a makeup and brush collection on my channel if you would like to see. I will put the videos below and today I am uploading the tmi tag so you can check that out as well. I will put the questions and video in this post so y'all can check that out as well.


Oh and I started working out again! Which to me is exciting and not so exciting. I'm trying to lose as least 20 pounds before my brother's wedding which is on May 24th. So I still have a little over two months so far I've lost 6.7 pounds in 3 weeks.
