Things I love waking up to:
Cute emails in my inbox... and this little guy fast asleep in his daddy's spot... complete with pillow and everything. My two favourite boys <3
There is a peek at my new vehicle! I am in love with it. It's perfect and probably the warmest thing in the world! Hello, it has butt warmers. I'm pretty stoked about this because after driving a car from 1995 for six years, features like this blow me away.
Our recent guilty pleasure has been this delicious pull-apart rosemary bread and this spinach/cheesey dip from M&M Meat Shops. I am in heaven whenever we eat it.
Here is a shot of the Christmas tree all up and decorated! I'll take proper photos later, but for now this will do. That room is going to be so festive!
Lastly, the most unattractive photo of my eye ever in existence. My eyelids were completely swollen Fri-Sat because I am an idiot. I've had this happen a few times and always thought it was certain makeup I was using... so eliminated those eyeshadows from my collection. After it happened yet again on Friday, I thought it was a certain brush I was using... but after some research I found out that the brush I thought it was, was synthetic (My normal brushes are goat/pony hair... that sounds so weird, but they're MAC anyways. This brush I only use occasionally turned out to be synthetic (Urban Decay).) Apparently, synthetic brushes are hypoallergenic so that ruled that out. In fact, I should have been more allergic to the animal hair types than anything, which I use every day without issues.
Then I did some more detective work and realized that before I was using my eyeshadow, I wiped my brushes on a piece of toilet paper. After my eyes were bugging me throughout the day, I used toilet paper and makeup remover to get it off. It got worse. Then I realized that this seemed to happen every time toilet paper was involved. Don't ask why I use toilet paper... I do my makeup in the bathroom and it's the closest thing haha. So anyways, not to self: Never use toliet paper to remove makeup again. I'm back to normal now, but now that I know what's causing it I'll knock on wood that it never happens again.
Other things that happened this past week:
- Two of my lovely sponsors held a giveaway

What did you get up to this weekend? Did you spend all your money during Black Friday, or did you choose not to partake?

Oh gosh, I did not realise toilet paper could do that.. but I guess that makes sense. I use toilet paper for removing make up all the time so maybe I should invest in a box of tissues just for the bathroom lol. Thanks! :P
