Upcoming Adventures | May Blog Chat

Happy Sunday! I can’t believe we are already into the month of May! It seems like 2016 is flying by. Today I’m here to share my Upcoming Adventures with all of you. This is where I share a sneak preview of what you can expect to see here on Adventures in Polishland this month. April was a great month here on the blog. I went back to my normal blog schedule after a themed month in March, and caught up with a lot of new nail polish releases and book reviews. It was fun to write about a lot of the different things I’ve been loving in my life lately, and I hope you enjoyed the posts as well! Let me share more about what you can expect during May!

Upcoming Adventures | May Blog ChatMay is going to be a bit different here at Adventures in Polishland. While I am not doing a themed month, it just so happens that the majority of my blog posts will be nail polish comparisons. As you may know, I am currently doing a major destash of my nail polish collection. I am now in the stage where I am comparing shades to get rid of dupes and also find the best formulas. As a result, I have a ton of nail polishes to swatch and thought it would be fun to do a lot of Dare to Compare posts. I asked on my Facebook Page HERE if you were interested in seeing so many comparisons, and I was happy so many of you wanted them! Thus, almost all of my beauty posts this month will be Dare to Compare posts!

In addition to comparison posts on beauty days, I will be keeping up with lifestyle posts on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Right now I am anticipating a good amount of book reviews, but I’m not yet sure what else will make its way onto the blog. If you ever have a request, you can use my Request Form HERE and I might write about your idea! If there is a specific aspect of my life you would like to learn more about, please let me know. Of course, I don’t share everything, but I always entertain your ideas.

That wraps up my May Blog Chat! As always, thank you for your continued support! It was so exciting to celebrate my 4-year Blogiversary in April. I truly love sharing with you, and I’m glad people share in my passions along with me. Here’s to a great May!

May 2014 Favorites!

Happy Friday! May is coming to a close, and that means it’s time to share my monthly favorites with all of you! It’s been a busy month, and I’m so glad that it’s summer. Let me go ahead and share the products I’ve been loving!

NAIL POLISH

Zoya – WendyZoya Nail Polish in Wendy [REVIEW] [BUY]

I absolutely love Wendy from the new Zoya Tickled Collection! It’s a wearable pink shade, and I wore it for about a week this month. I think it would look great on absolutely everyone, so definitely pick it up!

LIP BALM

Noya Lip Balm in CherryNoya Lip Balm in Cherry [BUY]

I received this lip balm in a Birchbox a while back, and decided to bring it along with me on my recent trip to Los Angeles. I’m so glad I did! Not only is this 100% natural, but it smells amazing and does a great job at moisturizing my lips. I’m making this my go-to lip balm for sure.

SKINCARE 

Neutrogena Clear Skin SunscreenNeutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen [BUY]

After attending the Duane Reade event with Dr. Jaliman earlier this month, I decided that I really need to wear sunscreen on a daily basis. I decided to get this one from Neutrogena because it’s advertised to not cause breakouts. I’ve used it a few times now, and it’s true! This sunscreen has a semi-matte finish, and is a lot less greasy than other sunscreens. I definitely recommend it.

BODY CARE

Jergens BB Body Jergens BB Body Perfecting Skin Cream [BUY]

I got two samples of this BB cream so I decided to just give it a try! I won’t say that this is going to change the appearance of your skin drastically, but I’ve noticed that it does make my legs look a bit nicer and ready for summer. Plus, it smells really good! I do really like this stuff, and would recommend it if you want to even our your skin tone.

MUSIC

Love Never Felt so Good by Michael Jackson & Justin TImberlake [BUY]

My new favorite song is definitely the MJ & JT single! It’s so fun, and it’s awesome to hear two of my favorite artists together thanks to the power of technology. It’s definitely got a vintage, MJ vibe, which I personally love. Definitely check it out! 

That’s it for my favorites this month! I didn’t end up trying too many new products, but I hope to do that this summer when I don’t have as much work on my plate. As always, feel free to share your favorite products of May in the comments or on social media with the hashtag #PolishlandFaves. I hope you had a great May, and here’s to June!
