<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Eye shadow is my favorite makeup product and, while it may not be the most necessary or the most important, it definitely makes up for about 85% of my makeup collection! I have shadows in every color from black to white (which I am aware are not actual colors), every finish from matte to just plain glittery, every formula from cream to pigments, and from many different brands! Most of you can probably describe your eye shadow collection in the same way, but what you might be missing are the twelve-hundred-and-seventy-eight-gazillion eye shadows that are sold on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/" target="_blank">etsy</a>. </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I began looking around at the makeup shops on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/" target="_blank">etsy</a> a few months ago and have grown quite the collection of indy-shadows!</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MyBeautyAddiction" target="_blank">My Beauty Addiction</a> was the first etsy store I started buying from. I was introduced to them by Maria over at AgapeLoveDesigns! (She sent me some in <a href="http://beccamaybe.blogspot.com/2013/08/swap-haul-makeupmonday.html" target="_blank">the swap that we did</a>!) They have over 200 shadow colors! (They also sell other face makeup including lippies, foundations, blushes, and quite a bit of skincare items.) You have the option of buying single shadows, a pack of 5 samples, or a pack of 10 samples. You get to pick the colors that you want to try! I also have a jar of their eye shadow <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/62048389/shadow-poxy-eye-shadow-primerbase?ref=shop_home_active&ga_search_query=poxy" target="_blank">primer</a>. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love that they come in clam shells and they come with plenty of product to do several applications. They also have the FASTING shipping in the entire world!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I found this brand by searching etsy for "mineral eye shadow". It was a new shop so I was drawn to it immediately. <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/StarCrushedMinerals" target="_blank">Star Crushed Minerals</a> sells sample only as singles instead of in a 5 or 10 pack. They also sell <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/StarCrushedMinerals?section_id=13613667" target="_blank">foundations</a> and <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/StarCrushedMinerals?section_id=13613711" target="_blank">blushes</a>. Their colors are SO RICH and pigmented and their <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/151674577/labor-day-sale-70-off-mineral-eye-shadow?ref=shop_home_active&ga_search_query=primer" target="_blank">primer</a> is also wonderful! I have developed a great relationship with this shop owner. Her name is Edie and she really values the relationships she has with her customers. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">She puts a great amount of product in her samples and all of them come in a jar with a filter, which makes little to no mess! Definitely my favorite packaging out of all the etsy makeup I own. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I stopped in at this <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeautyBarBaby" target="_blank">etsy shop</a> when I saw that everything was 50% off! It was easy to pick the colors that I wanted from <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/BeautyBarBaby" target="_blank">BeautyBarBaby</a> because there are pictures of each of her shadows swatched so I could see exactly what they looked like on the skin! Some of the colors are even swatched dry AND foiled(with water or a solution added)! Like most all mineral makeup on etsy, their products are vegan/cruelty free. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This shop, much like StarCrushedMinerals, sells samples as singles. They are packaged in jars with screw-top lids and no filter. If you aren't VERY careful, they can be very messy, so don't open them over anything white...including your new white bedroom rug...found that out the hard way! They color payoff was worth the mess! Beautiful!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Okay, I know this post was long! I'm just so in love with the eye shadows that I've found on etsy and I think more makeup lovers need to know about these shops! Etsy is not just cross-stitch art work and macaroni necklaces anymore. (Okay I don't know if it ever WAS...) There are some serious treasures to be found on the site! You will find ANY color you are looking for, and probably some colors that you didn't even know existed! They are reasonably priced, and even the samples come with plenty of product. I'm not even close to running out of anything yet!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I decided on Friday that I was going to "attend" this link-up party. Obviously, it didn't come to fruition until today. Oops...honestly, I have no excuse but I really wanted to participate in this! </span></center>
<center>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Sorry for piling all of my shortcoming onto you guys, but I need to get this stuff off of my conscience.</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I love knowing what other people are into. I like to see what they're wearing, how they are doing their hair, what songs they are into at the moment, etc. One reason that I started this blog was to share what what I am into, and that happens to include blog posts! I put together a little list of some of my favorites from this week. Make sure you check them out and also, let me know what your faves from blog-land have been lately!</span></center>

<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I think pantsuits & jumpers are amazing...on everyone else but me! Maria ROCKED this one! She has the ability to add accessories and shoes to a pretty basic piece and change the entire look! She is also a MASTER at matching her makeup, shoes, and accessories without looking too matchy-matchy! Love this girl.</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I recently found some pretty cool nail art tools at Sally Beauty Supply. One thing I found was a pack of nail striping tape! The tape can be used for MANY different things. For this simple little pedicure, I just used the white roll to create a very simple design that turned out MUCH better than I thought it was going to!</span></center>

They are usually very opaque, but I don't expect them to last long on my nails. They are always chipped by the end of the day, but they are very cheap, so it's okay! They also have a great variety of colors! I buy mine at WalMart.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I can NOT paint a straight line on my nails. It doesn't matter what kind of brush I use. I have tried using scotch tape as a guide. I just can not do it! Truthfully, I was not expecting these tapes to work. I really didn't think they were going to stay on! So far, they have and I'm very pleased with them. I'm definitely planning to go back for more. I found mine at Sally's, but I couldn't find them on their website.

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I originally painted all ten toes with Bobbing for Baubles. They needed something else, to I put one coat of Speechless over the piggy that stayed home, and I like that the blue can still be seen under the wash of pink. It is exactly what I needed to change the look just a little bit.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: #eeeeee; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Happy YouTubesday! I am a couple of days late posting this...it's been a crazy week around here!

<span style="background-color: #eeeeee; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is a series I have created because I love YouTube. I love beauty videos, comedy videos, music videos (from famous people, and from the people sitting in front of a webcam with a guitar...those are usually better, actually!), and I'm the first to get all hyped up for a viral video! I have learned SO much from YouTube and I wanted to start this project to highlight some of my favorite YouTube personalities! I hope you enjoy it and please comment down below letting me know who YOUR favorites are!</span></center>

<span style="background-color: #eeeeee; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I found Laura's channel through another beauty vlogger, Melissa (melmphs). We became friends quickly. She is one of few YouTube's elite who take a lot of pride in actually interacting with her subscribers. If she can, she WILL respond to your comment or question. She is a GREAT editor and always makes videos that are entertaining, and more than that, informative. She makes makeup videos, skincare videos, and hair videos. She uses drugstore makeup AND high end makeup. Her tutorials are for beginners, and the more experienced. There is really something on her channel for everyone! Make sure you stop by and see what she has for you!</span></center>

More so it has taught me about myself! I struggled with the thought of opening myself up to filming videos because I was at my highest weight of my life after having 3 kids and I had an infant when I started the channel. I was self conscious, which I still am, but I realized.. Nope, this is me, I am real and I have something to sa</span><span style="color: #454545;">y</span><span style="color: #454545;"> so I am gonna say it. I promised myself I would always be myself, try to keep a relationship with those people that were on the other side supporting me and still try to build my channel as best possible. YouTube taught me that I can still be me and people accept that!</span><span style="color: #454545;"> It made me proud of myself that I took the plunge and put myself out there! On the flip side… I have watched my friends get slaughtered by certain gossip sites and although you know those people are terrible for saying those things about you, it still hurts to read. I learned if I was going to do this, I would keep my family out of it. That is why i choose to not show my children, not talk about details about them because people can say what they want about me, but if you question me as a mother, I will go gangbusters on you! lol… So far it's been a great experience!</span></span></center>

The empties videos are fun because I like showing what I used and giving a snap review of if I would purchase it again! The Friday Favorites are my other favorite because it's so fun sharing what I have been using the week and then possibly bringing attention to products that didn't work for me and telling why! </span></span></span></center>

I like hauls because i like to see what others get! It's fun for me! Tutorials have taught me so much and to see products in use is helpful for me! I also do like reviews too because I like to know what I am buying before I spend my money on it! The monthly & Weekly favorites are great to watch bc sometimes I am reminded of products I already have and someone else will mention how they have used it and what they love about it and it reminds me to pull it out again!</span></span></center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #eeeeee; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #454545;">MLL:</span><span style="color: #454545;"> </span><span style="color: #454545;">My best advice sounds so cheesy but it's really: Be yourself because if you aren't people can tell and it's not fun to watch when you try too hard to be something else. Make connections with other YouTubers that you genuinely enjoy watching and learn things from because the more networking the more your name is out there! I have built so many amazing friendships with Beauty YouTubers that have become some of my best friends and we all share the same passions so it's nice. Never do it for money, or other reasons but because you love making videos. People can tell if you are in it for something else and it makes you look less credible and you come off looking disingenuous!</span></span></center>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Recently, my friend Maria, over at </span><a href="http://www.agapelovedesigns.com/" style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;" target="_blank">Agape Love Designs</a><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">, came up with the idea for us to do a swap! We exchanged a few emails talking about our makeup preferences, favorite brands, and colors, exchanged addresses, and went shopping! My package from Maria came last week! I was actually at the lake when the mail ran. My fiance called me and told me that there was a package for me at the house and I knew exactly what it was! Don't get me wrong, the lake was great, but the whole weekend, my mind was on that package sitting at my house! When I got home on Sunday, I went STRAIGHT for it! (Do NOT pass go. Do NOT collect $200. Do NOT even stop to pet your cat!) I tore into it and didn't even think to take pictures of how beautifully everything was packaged!</span></center>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I waited to share these last because they are the most exciting thing in the whole package. Maria made these earrings!! I absolutely LOVE everything that she sent me! They will all get a lot of love from me, but she could have ONLY sent me these earrings and I would have been happy! When you create something with your own hands and give it to someone else, it means SO much. I know she puts a lot of work and love went into these and I am so honored to have a pair of original Agape Love Designs earrings!!</span></div>

(Oh, and by the way- I know I'm late, but I'm linking up with Agape Love Designs and Wink for Pink for Makeup Monday! Make sure you get over there and link up your makeup posts, too!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">I love using the color tattoos because I can create an entire eye look using them. They really don't need anything extra, but I love to add the MBA shadows to the middle of my lid. It REALLY makes them pop. If you have never used that brand, you MUST! You can find them on their <a href="http://www.mybeautyaddiction.com/" target="_blank">website</a>, but also on <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/MyBeautyAddiction" target="_blank">etsy</a>. They have over 200 colors...seriously!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">
Happy YouTubesday! This is a series I have created because I love YouTube. I love beauty videos, comedy videos, music videos (from famous people, and from the people sitting in front of a webcam with a guitar...those are usually better, actually!), and I'm the first to get all hyped up for a viral video! I have learned SO much from YouTube and I wanted to start this project to highlight some of my favorite YouTube personalities! I hope you enjoy it and please comment down below letting me know who YOUR favorites are!</span></center>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Yes, I'm on Twitter...I'm on Facebook, and Instagram, and Tumblr...I have a google+ account, a Vine account, Pinterest, KIK, FourSquare...I have them all. Truth be told, I probably use less than half of them regularly! You are probably on some of those sites too and if you aren't, you've probably heard of them. They all have their good and bad qualities. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Twitter has all of the celebs (...can't lie...I follow them all. From Lady GaGa & Ellen all the way to the cast of that already-cancelled MTV show BuckWild, there is something very interesting to me about Twitter-stalking "celebrities".)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">How could ANYONE plan a wedding, birthday party, cook dinner, or decorate a house without Pinterest? And Facebook?! I mean, I don't know how I would keep up with my friends from high school without Facebook!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I have often found myself pretty annoyed that I can talk to a woman who lives inside my phone and she can tell me pretty much anything I want to know (Siri), but all of these social media networks can't be joined to make one big pinning, tagging, posting, tweeting social network monster, BUT since it doesn't look like that will be happening anytime soon, I thought I would introduce you to a FEW more sites that you REALLY need to be on!!!</span></div>

<a href="https://www.keek.com/BeccaMay81203" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">KEEK</span></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">My keek is my baby. It is still in the "growing" stages, so I have found that I get to interact with WAY more people through keek. Users post 36 second videos, can comment on others' videos & "keekback" (leave a video response). The most recent addition is a private message option where users can send messages or private videos to each other. (I found out the hard way that enabling other users to message you opens your account up to some pretty creepy persons pretending to be "modeling agents" asking for naked videos...but there's a block feature too!) I LOVE seeing my friends' OOTD's (outfit of the day), FOTD's (face of the day), NOTD's (nails of the day), and whatever other "TD"s they come up with! It's also a great place to post (and watch) mini-hauls! ...The girls I follow are pretty much just a bunch of enablers coaxing me into buying whatever they just bought! I love Keek...just love it! Be sure to check out the <a href="http://winkforpinkblog.blogspot.com/2013/08/what-keek.html" target="_blank">Wink4Pink</a> blog every few weeks to see which Keekers you should be watching! </span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">So, right now, this one is only available on a computer, meaning there is no app for it. I guess I should say it's only available via browser...not computer. So imagine this, you have some downtime and decide to log into your Facebook......</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">OH MY GOSH!!! THE ONLY THING PEOPLE ARE TALKING ABOUT ON HERE IS MAKEUP AND HAIR AND BEAUTY PRODUCTS!!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Well, THAT is exactly what this website is! Your Perfect Beauty is a social BEAUTY network site. There is a section to write your own reviews on your favorite products, a section to leave your beauty tips, tricks, and secrets, a place to upload videos, a place makeup/hair/nail looks, and (of course) a tab to post your status! This one is also in the growing phase. There aren't many bells and whistles, but if this site continues to grow, it is going to be HUGE! I have so much fun on there and I'm really looking forward to watching that site grow!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Remember in English class (right after the lesson on the correct way to write an essay) when they taught the "Correct Way to Write a Blog Post" lesson?</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">....yeah...neither do I.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">With that being said, welcome to my VERY FIRST BLOG POST EVERRRR!!! I've been reading blogs for a long time. I was never interested in writing my own until about six months ago when I quit just READING blogs and began to interact with the women behind them. I have made true friends in the "blogosphere" (that IS what it's called, right?) who I have really grown to love. I talk to them everyday about everything and I learn from them constantly. They have changed my life.</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"> </span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">I started this blog because I want to connect with even MORE of you! I love to learn new things. I love sharing tips and tricks and secrets! You will find out that I have a pretty wide variety of interests! We are pretty much gonna have one big girly slumber party on this blog! There are no guidelines here and there are no rules here (except be kind to each other!), so use the comment section and my email address liberally! This is a whole new world ((a hundred thousand things to see...no one to tell us "no", or where to go, or say we're only dreaming......)) to me and I am SO excited to have you here to see what happens! I have so many dreams for this baby blog!</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you SO much for being here. I would love for you to let me know that you came by and please leave a link to your blog or any social media sites that I can come stalk you on! I hope you'll sick around and follow me via Bloglovin' and/or GFC, both of which you can find to the left of this post. My social media buttons will take you directly to my profiles and I would love for you to join me on those sites too! I also hope you'll take a second to read the "About Me" section where I left some fun facts about yours truly! My email address is listed there, and so is a link to my keek!</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">(How was that for some shameless self-promotion?! Haha!)</span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></center>
<center style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Spread love & be kind!</span></center>
