Welcome to Makeup Monday on Julie's Lifestyle. Each Monday I will post about a certain type of makeup, nail polish, face or hair product etc. It will be a fun place to come visit about anything to do with beauty.
Hi friends, I hope you all had a nice weekend. I had to find out about all the hype on e.l.f. cosmetics, and by the way e.l.f. stands for eyes lips face! I had been seeing so much on Pinterest and on beauty blogs about their cosmetics and never tried them before. I decided to go to Target recently to buy some things that my family and I needed and discovered that Target sells their line of makeup.
I decided to buy just one item since I have never used any of their makeup before. I bought their blush and I love the color I bought - it is called tickled pink. It looks good on my skin and goes good with my blonde hair. The blush is a light subtle color and it gives a soft and natural look.
WEEK 28 - e.l.f. Blush

I'm very happy with this blush and I would recommend it to you and you can't beat the price at $3.00. The size and the packaging reminds me of the blush I just bought recently from NARS and I paid $30 for it! To see that blog post in case you missed it, you can click HERE.
Here is the description on the back of the box for the blush: The soft sheer texture blends into the skin for a silky finish. Designed to be worn alone or layered for more depth. Highlight your complexion with a subtle healthy glow.
Have you tried any e.l.f. cosmetics? I hope I was helpful and maybe inspired you to try their makeup!

I have a healthy recipe for Tomato Pie that I would love to share with you and it's a great way to use up left over tomatoes grown from the summer.
This dish is great served with a salad on the side. It can be used as an appetizer also.

Hi friends, the vote is in and most of you all love decorative pillows you your bed! This is a photo of my Mom's guest bedroom at her house. In case you missed this post you can see it HERE.
I love extra decorative pillows on the bed and how pretty it makes the bed look. What I do not like is setting up the bed and pillows in the morning and taking them off at night and that is why I only have 4 needed pillows on my bed.
This weeks #Mommy Reality Challenge - Week #18 What is your favorite beverage or drink?

I'm joining today Jen from JENerally Informed and Celeste from Leapfrog and Lipgloss for Mommy Reality Challenge #18. I will be linking this up to Jen's and Celeste's fun link party. Each week they pick a fun theme or topic and you share your photos there.
My favorite drink in the afternoon is Starbuck's coffee made in my french press. I have a new schedule and I'm awake each morning at 5:30am (OUCH!) so by the afternoon I need a quick pick me up! This is my favorite and does the trick.

Week 27 - Rimmel Scandal Eyes Eyeliner
Week 27 - Rimmel Scandal Eyes Eyeliner
Hi friends, and welcome back to Makeup Monday Week 27. I hope you all enjoyed the pretty fall weekend we just had. Today I'd like to share with you the new eyeliner I bought from Target. I was so excited to try out this new eyeliner that my daughter has been using and liked so much. It's called Rimmel Scandal Eyes Thick & Thin Eyeliner - waterproof. This eyeliner looks fabulous on my teenage daughter and shows up nice and thick on her eyes. I tried this eyeliner and it works well on my eyes when I use it with my eye primer from Urban Decay. I usually use an eye crayon from Avon but thought it was fun to try out this type of eyeliner. The eyeliner is similar to a thin magic marker. I bought it in Target and paid $5.49 for it and it's available in most drug stores. The color of the eyeliner is 001 Black.
Have you tried this eyeliner yet and did it work for you?
I have a blogger friend who blogs about makeup and beauty and I love all of her makeup reviews. She writes about the latest makeup trends and is always honest about a product. Kim has a fun blog and if you love makeup like I do then please visit Kim from A Very Sweet Blog when you get a chance!
Two weeks ago I did a blog post about Makeup Brushes and in case you missed that post you can see it HERE.

Hi friends, I have been so busy with preparing for our annual Fall and Christmas knit and crochet sale that we have at our church. The sale is held at our church each fall the weekend right before Thanksgiving. I have here my latest crochet project that I just finished.
It's an Infinity Scarf and Hand Warmers Set!
It's an Infinity Scarf and Hand Warmers Set!
I really like this black yarn with the different colors - green, red, blue, yellow and purple mixed in with it. I had one skein of this yarn but it did not have any label on it so I think it might be Red Heart yarn.
I think this is the perfect set to keep you warm this winter and hopefully someone will want to purchase it!
To see my simple Crochet Infinity Scarf Pattern you can click HERE.

I will show you the crocheted Headband I just finished making that goes with the set soon.
Have you been working on any winter crochet or knit projects? I hope I have inspired you to make something for winter. These type of sets also make great holiday gifts.
Thanks everyone and Enjoy!

I'm joining today Jen from JENerally Informed and Celeste from Leapfrog and Lipgloss for Mommy Reality Challenge #17. Their theme for this week is: "How many pillows are REALLY on your bed?
On our bed I just have the pillows that we use to sleep with and we don't really like a lot of decorative pillows.
I was at my Mom's house for Labor Day weekend and stayed in her beautiful guest bedroom and here she has 7 pillows on the bed! My mom loves pillows!
I will be linking this up to Jen's and Celeste's fun link party. Each week they pick a fun theme or topic and you share your photos there.
Thanks everyone and Enjoy!
