HELLO BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!! Aren't favorites posts fun? I love them. The last few months I haven't managed to get one up, though, so I'm making this lovely gigantic one with January AND February favorites.

Creating this post may have partially involved repeatedly asking my mom and my sisters, "What have I been obsessed with lately????" Because I have a terrible memory and literally can't even remember my own life. Go me.

Beauty:

I needed to try a new foundation, and ended up liking the Maybelline Fit Me in Porcelain. I had to switch because the Ivory TruBlend was too dark...I'm so pale, guys. It's terrible. Sometimes I feel like Porcelain doesn't even match. I really need to get a tan this summer. It's bad. 

I got this eyeshadow trio in a Target beauty box, and I really like it! I'd never tried anything by Pacifica, but I love the quality. It has nice pigmentation, and it doesn't crease, either. Plus, THE PACKAGING IS SO PRETTYYYYY. Gah. Love.

I'd been wanting to try EOS in stick form for forever. I got the vanilla one for Christmas, and the mint for Valentine's Day, and I love them both. The consistency is great, and it's so much easier than the big sphere that's the typical EOS shape.

This Bed Head curling wand was a Christmas present, and since then I haven't used my old curling wand once. It gives your hair these absolutely GORGEOUS, natural curls, and they really hold, too. Plus, the glove that comes with it works wonderfully. Can't recommend this wand enough.

Books:

These are basically books & journals all wrapped up into one and I'm obsessed. I'm also quite proud because I've kept up with them quite well. And if you know me, I'm terrible at keeping up with ANYTHING.

I read The Old Man and the Sea for school, and I really enjoyed it. Well, I enjoyed reading it the first time, anyways. Then I had to write this essay on the symbolism within the book and started to lose my mind. But the book itself was good!

Randomness:

The obsession is hardcore, guys. I'm almost finished with season 1- it's so great!

One of my friends managed to get almost the entire high school at our co-op obsessed with Color Switch. Myself included. It's sooo addicting. I've kind of gotten sick of it now, but it was a definite obsession for a while. 

I've absolutely loved watching this continuation to Full House. It's so cute, and since I grew up on Full House, seeing everyone grow up has been super fun. 

It's taking over my life, guys. I'm involved with helping with a production of the show coming up soon, and I could not be more excited. It seems like lately all I ever am thinking about is Aladdin! 

Music:

SURPRISE! The musical that has taken over my life. I literally cannot say enough good things about this show and its brilliance. It is honestly a piece of art.

Songs I've Been Loving:

Seasons of Love- Rent
Happy/Sad- The Addams Family
Kiss Me- Ed Sheeran
21 Guns- American Idiot (Original Broadway Cast)
When We Were Young- Adele
Safer- First Date
The Hanging Tree- Mockingjay
Homeless- Ed Sheeran

What have you been loving lately?

Disney Tsum Tsums!

Guys, I have a new obsession. Well, it's not exactly new. Over the past month, it's been growing and growing. But I'm absolutely in love. If you haven't heard of them yet, then let me introduce....Disney's Tsum Tsums!!!

They are absolutely the CUTEST things in the world. I got a Marie Tsum Tsum for Christmas, and here's what she looks like-

Isn't she adorable??? Tsum tsums are these cute, roly-poly stuffed animals that you just want to hug to death. This is a larger version, I happen to love the little ones as well.

I'm seriously in love. They're just so tiny and cute! The smaller ones average around five dollars each, while the larger ones go for around twelve or thirteen dollars each. If I had enough cash, let me just tell you, I would get one of each character!!!

Oh! And just when you think it can't get better, it does. They also have an app!

The app is free (at least in the Apple store, I don't know about Android. Sorry! Android users, let me know!), but I would probably buy it if it wasn't, and I never actually buy apps. I know, I'm weird, but I don't see a ton of point in paying money just for a game. You connect the adorable Tsum Tsums, earning coins to buy more Tsums to play with. It's very simple, and I've got to say, it's addictive! My favorite Tsum to play as so far would have to be Maleficent, with Marie being a close second. On my app, I've tried playing as Micky, Minnie, Woody from Toy Story, Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas, Anna from Frozen, The White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, and Goofy. Marie and Maleficent work the best consistently, so I love them.

Have you tried playing Tsum Tsums? If not, I highly recommend that you go and try it, ASAP! :)
