Our First Time | Married Life ☂

Monday, 29 July 2013

This tag is really popular these days so G & I thought that we'd get into the action and give it a shot.



Some of the editing is a little off because we had to shorten the clips, 
so sorry if some parts don't make sense. 
My bad.

The questions are:

First tweet?
First youtube video?
First person you subscribed to on youtube?
First Facebook profile pic?
Do you still talk to your FIRST love?
What was your FIRST alcoholic drink?
What was your FIRST job?
What was your FIRST car?
Who was the FIRST person to text you today?
Who is the FIRST person you thought of this morning?
Who was your FIRST grade teacher?
Where did you go on your FIRST ride on an airplane?
Who was your FIRST best friend & do you still talk?
Where was your FIRST sleep over?
What was the FIRST thing you did this morning?
What was the FIRST concert you ever went to?
FIRST broken bone?
FIRST piercing?
FIRST foreign country you've gone to?
FIRST movie you remember seeing?
When was your FIRST detention?
Who was your FIRST roommate?
If you had one wish, what would it be?
What was the first sport you were involved in?
What is the first thing you do when you get home?
When was your first kiss?


Also, we didn't include some of the questions if they had boring answers. 

Try it out for yourself. We tag you :)


Love, G & C.

July Favourites | clarissaxplainsitall

Sunday, 28 July 2013

As July is coming to a close (where has the year gone?!) I thought I'd do a July favourites because I've never done one of these posts before.

Nothing beats classic SNL to adequately describe your
feelings. 

Below is a collection of everything I have loved this month and have been reaching for more frequently.



1. Benefit 'They're Real' Mascara: I can't get enough of this product. If you're looking for a mascara that gives you length and volume then you've come to the right place. This is more of a ~high end~ product so it will make a hole in your wallet, but if you want to spoil yourself on a mascara that could replace all of the other 123249822 mascaras in your collection, then give it a go.

Price: Retails at $38 on the Myer website.

2. Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream: This has replaced my foundations this month. I bought both the medium shade to contour and the fair shade to highlight and I haven't looked back. This lightweight product stays true to its word by leaving your skin feeling lightweight and flawless with its oil-free formula. It's also available for those who battle with a more oily complexion.

Price: Retails at $15.95 on the Priceline website.

3. Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman Base/Flawless, Core Collection Brushes: I believe in having quality make-up brushes above all else in your make-up collection, and this month I've loved using these brushes to apply my make up. They're give you absolute control and they clean easily.

Price: Retails at $17.99 on the iHerb website.

4. Sea Spray by Lush: I'm a pretty low maintenance kind of girl when it comes to my hair. I cut my hair really short once and I vowed never, ever to do it again because of how much maintenance went into keeping it looking cute. For my long hair, I love to just wash it, let it hair dray and spray a couple of pumps of Sea Spray by Lush to make it look like i've put hours of effort into it. It leaves it looking like I have just been to Bondi beach when really I haven't left my room.

Price: Retails at $12.50 on the Lush website.

5. Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette: Ok, you're crazy if you haven't heard of Urban Decay's Naked palettes. They're pretty much the bee's knees. I've been reaching for Naked 2 this month because the colours allow you to create any smokey or neutral eye look with its highly pigmented shades.

Price: Naked (the original palette) Retails at $59.60 on beautybay.com
Note: Naked 2 is currently out of stock.

6. Clinique 3-Step System: I was fortunate enough to score a 10-day trial of the 3-step system from my local Clinique counter and I think I'm going to buy the full sized system once I get some money. My skin feels refreshed and lovely after following the steps. Definitely worth the extra 3 minutes of my skin care routine.

Price: Retails at $29.00 for the introductory kit from the Clinique website.

Let me know what your July favourites are. I want to know!
