Ok, so I love beauty products. I love nail polish, makeup, face masks, and everything in between and beyond. But I also love to cook! In fact, I love to cook so much that I decided to publish my own cookbook on BakeSpace! My book, Simple Homemade Favorites, is full of tried-and-true recipes that I have made for my family. The nice thing is that they are recipes that are super easy to make.
You can get my cookbook by downloading the free Cookbook Cafe app for your Apple products and e-readers. Simple Homemade Favorites costs $6.99 and comes with 70 mouthwatering recipes (for appetizers, sides, main dishes, desserts, drinks, and lunch boxes) to cook for yourself, your family, your friends, your co-workers, and just about anyone!!
Leave me a comment below and let me know what you think of Simple Homemade Favorites!

The Julep Galaxy Mystery Box!
I ordered the Galaxy Mystery Box last Wednesday and was super-psyched to get it in the mail today! Each Mystery Box has different levels you can purchase: this month, the packages were the Pluto (for $20, containing $50 worth of product), the Cosmic (for $25, containing $70 of product), and the Supernova (for $40, containing $120 of product). You can also choose a mystery add-on for $10. I selected the Cosmic box and the mystery add-on.
When you order a Mystery Box, this is what it looks like when you open it
To the right, this is the mystery add-on; I actually got a two-fer. Two add-ons! The Hand and Cuticle Stick and Carrie, a pink cotton candy creme polish. The Hand and Cuticle Stick normally goes for $40, while Carrie normally costs $14.
On the left is the contents of the main mystery box itself. On the top, I got the Hand Model set, which includes the Glycolic Hand Scrub, the Rock Star Hand Creme, and the Oxygen Nail Treatment. Just that set is a $25 value! On the bottom, from left to right, the polishes I got were Francis, a celery green creme, Estelle, a dark holographic glitter, Charlotte, a smoky violet creme, Reiko, a golden champagne, Blakely, a molten purple and green, and Lexie, a dandelion yellow creme. Each of those go for $14, so the total value of this box (including the add-ons) was $163.
I was really pleased with this set. I had to get rid of a lot of nail polishes in my collection because they were damaging my nails more than anything, and Julep has really helped me start rebuilding my collection in a really short span of time. I am really excited to use the Glycolic Scrub and the Rock Star Hand Creme (look for my review on those within the next few days!) If you'd like to get similar bargains like the one seen here, sign up HERE and become a Maven today!
Which polish do you think I should try first? I'm loving them all! Drop me a suggestion below!

All About Julep!
I
have a new beauty obsession: this fancy little website called Julep. I
officially became a Julep Maven in July, mostly because of the AWESOME
product selection that Julep carries, but also because they have great
prices, and I like the idea of the Monthly Maven box.
So, what is a Monthly Maven box, you ask? When you sign up to become a Maven, you take a style profile quiz that puts you into a classification (of Boho Glam, Classic With a Twist, Modern Beauty, Bombshell, and It Girl). Each month, you get invited to purchase the monthly box for $20, but you can always skip it (on a side note, you don't have to pick the profile you are determined to fit - for example, I am Classic With a Twist, but last month, I picked the It Girl box).
When you become a Maven, you also get exclusive access to the Secret Store and you can purchase optional Mystery Boxes (which range from $20 to $40, and include anywhere from $50 for the lowest-priced box to $150 for the highest-priced box in products) each month. Of course, you don't have to be a Maven to buy the regular products on their site, but with the value that comes packed into the Monthly Maven boxes and the Mystery Boxes, why wouldn't you sign up for free immediately?? If you sign up through my link below, your first box will be free!
