I just wanted to take a moment and thank all of you who chose to follow my little blog! The ones who take the time to comment, or laugh at Zombri's antics, or just scroll on by. I appreciate you and it really means a lot. Generally when a blogger hits a milestone they hold a giveaway. Well I'm no exception but I'm human and money is tight. I have ideas and have purchased a couple of items for a giveaway but right now is not a good time. Once I've gathered everything my giveaway will be posted, so please stay tuned! <3

Stunning in Sayulita
When browsing through Sephora one day I saw the Stunning in Sayulita pallete by Stila. For only $14 you get four eyeshadows, a blush, and a 'bronzer'. It was just too cute to pass up. Banderas Bay is my absolute favorite highlight at the moment. It says it's a bronzer but it's much too light. Playa, a warm peach blush, is beautiful too. It's the only matte blush I own. The four shadows Starfish(champagne shimmer), Sandbar(brown shimmer), Getaway(mauve shimmer), and Palm Trees(green shimmer) are pretty but not as pigmented as I was hoping until you use a base.
Here's a really pretty look with the entire palette that I did a few weeks back using Urban Decay 24/7 eye pencil in Electric under Palm Trees and NYX Jumbo pencil on the rest of the eye. I thought this was a nice night time summer look. The liner is Kat Von D Autograph liner in Turbo Lover that I bought on clearance for only $10.

Lips are OCC Lip Tar in Demure with Lorac 3D on top.
Overall I'm happy with this palette and you just can't beat the price. I think this is a great summer palette that can work during the day and at night.

My first water marble...(pic heavy!)
Oh happy weekend full of sleep and more sleep! So here's my first attempt at a water marbling. I think it came out pretty good but not quite what I expected. This is China Glaze Cowgirl Up, China Glaze For Audrey, Nicole by OPI Make a Comet-ment, and Orly Fancy Fuschia, my franken Bile, base is 3 coats of Essence Prismatic White, free Hello Kitty decals from bornpretty and a flower from my moms garden. I know that's a mouth full! The first finger I did came out the best, in my opinion, it's also the finger I didn't use any protection, lol.
Before clean up.
After the first clean up attempt. Ladies use protection!lol
I'm pretty proud of my first attempt. Though I wish For Audrey would have been more noticeable. I used one of my mom's flowers on my pinkies. I cut the petals to fit my nails, painted a fresh coat of polish, placed it, then painted a top coat. It didn't hold very well though and was peeling immediately. But I wanted to try!
I won my Essence Prismatic White from a giveaway from Holly at shimmerspark along with a holographic eyeshadow in Lilac and a holographic lip gloss in Holoberry. Keep in mind Essence states these are 'holographic' when they are really duochrome.
Cute tape!
Lilac is a purple base with blue duochrome.
Holoberry on the left and lilac on the right.
Holoberry is a pink based gloss with yellow, green, and blue duochrome.
Prismatic White is a white based polish with green and pink duochrome.
Holly had super cute stamps and business card. This was a great prize as it was a brand I had zero experience with and it allowed me to try it out. The eyeshadow is my favorite base for my purple/blue looks. The gloss is gorgeous and the polish works great. Thanks Holly!
