I always love to play in makeup and hair products and really anything pampering. I’ve been forming a Sephora wish list as of late and I wanted to share some of the cool stuff I found.

I have had to heat style my hair A LOT lately and I think that this hair treatment is really cool. I really want to give it a try.

I also think that my pasty butt could use a glistening summer glow all year round. 

I love these Kat Von D makeup brushes. The tattoo stenciling on the handle is so pretty.

These Cargo Plant Love lipsticks are so light and sheer, and 100% natural!

I bought this the other day to try and give my hair some texture.

My new philosophy body wash makes me want to chew my own arms off.  Delicious!  I love all of their products.

And this is quite possibly the best mascara I have laid my tiny short lashes on EVER!

I love the citrusy floral scent of this fragrance.  I always get compliments when I wear it.  ”You sure do smell purdy!”

Okay, so I am all for “reuse, reduce, recycle.”  I recycle what I can, sometimes I even stick extra stuff in there to see if they’ll take it.  I compost all my kitchen scraps.  I try really hard not to be wasteful.  Not only because I believe in it, but also because I don’t like to waste things, especially when it can save me money.  

But has the urge to better our planet gone too far?  As I was reading through my various blogs this morning I stumbled upon a very disturbing post.  I saw this and thought “What the crap?  Really?”  Wearing a jacket made out of Capri Sun wrappers is just not right.

So, being as disturbed as I was I looked into this issue some more.  Turns out there is a company that takes recycled food packaging and turns them into purses and such.  And for all you crafties out there, you can turn plastic grocery bags into yarn.  I also read about a couple from New Zealand that generated only ONE BAG OF TRASH in 2008! 

While I am very encouraged by the enthusiasm of others to do more, I still would not wear a Capri Sun Jacket.
