Sephora, new products, and olive oil

So yesterday I was at the mall shopping for Christmas gifts (I couldn't make it out on Black Friday). I had to quickly duck into Sephora to grab some more of Urban Decay's eye shadow primer potion. I love that stuff and was pretty much out. Plus I needed it for my holiday makeup look that I'll be wearing today. As I was there I saw something else I had to grab (because of course it's impossible to run into Sephora for one thing and not get anything else!). I really wanted to grab a few other things while I was in there and play with some new makeup but I really didn't have time. All I got besides the primer potion was the LaVanilla mini deo trio. I have wanted to try a natural deodorant for quite some time and thought that this would be the perfect way. It comes with 3 different scents and they're all travel size!
I just used it for the first time this morning and will be sneaking a mini dove antiperspirant into my purse today in case I need to touch up! I will keep you posted on its effectiveness but I can tell you that I have already vacuumed most of my apartment and done a good load of dishes and so far I still smell as fresh as a daisy! I really love how this is a little bit powdery because that helps keep my underarms dry without having to add anything extra. When I'm going to dance class I might have to use a regular deodorant, though.
Now onto the second part of this post: olive oil. I have recently discovered the benefits of using olive oil as a beauty product thanks to Cara at Maskcara. She has a great blog that you should definitely check out. Last night I took a shower and used olive oil as a deep conditioner. I looovvveee my hair today, it's amazing! I also used it as a moisturizer after I shaved my legs and olive oil is now my only eye makeup remover.
Anyway, just wanted to share these things with you. Have a great Thanksgiving!

XOXO,
MMM
