November Plan with Me

It’s November already. Like what is happening to this world?! Where is the time going??!? Well at least there are things to look forward too, like Christmas andddd, a November Plan with Me of course.

Every month, I like trying new things in my planner and sharing it with you. However this month, I must admit that I was a little hesitant to do this video because I literally had no clue on how to plan for this month. Thankfully, Gemma, a lovely subscriber, told me about this amazing blog called Vintage Glam Studio, that has FREE sticker printables and I went cray cray.

I was very inspired by the printables Dru (owner of Vintage Glam Studio) had on her blog, and I just printed them on sticker/label paper (like these from Avery) and boom, I got those lovely stickers that really made this month’s spread look incredible. See for yourself in the flood of pictures below. And if you download anything from Vintage Glam Studio, tell her Roxy sent you!

Panduh Box | Cute Planner/Stationery Supplies

Yes, I can’t get over my planner supplies addiction. But let me just say that having subscription boxes like the Panduh Box makes life so. much. easier. The Panduh Box stems from Paper Panduh, an online store run by the kickass #girlboss Emma, which specializes in the most unique and kawaii planner and stationery supplies. And yes, if you must ask, kawaii happens to be my new fave word. Don’t judge me.

P.S. Emma has her own YouTube channel where she does fab plan with me videos and her writing and stamping skills are beyond this life and totally not fair. Be sure to check her out and tell her I sent you!

Every month, for $29.95 (and free shipping) you can get a box filled with surprise planner/stationery supplies from brands such as Heidi Swapp and Studio Calico, which basically means a ton of gold foil goodness. Here’s what I got in my October box.

Makeup Storage & Organization

My vanity was a complete and utter train wreck for the most part of the year. Don’t believe me, you’ll see the BEFORE pics soon enough. It was because I didn’t have proper makeup storage and organization and I was a hoarder. Good thing those days are over because after a good declutter and reorganization, my vanity area is a dream come true. Of course, I still have to work on that Hollywood glam lights look but everything in a timing right?

Here’s a little video on how I transformed my vanity with good storage for my makeup.

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream Swatches | Tan/Olive Skin

Hello beauties!

Since I cleaned my vanity area (video soon to come- yes, an actual “clean with me”), I became reacquainted with soooo many makeup products that never saw the light of day. Literally. They were in a draw all hidden away in a bundled heap, so understandably, I never went for them. But because of my random cleaning, I rekindled my love for a lip product that is a staple in my collection. The NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams.

I asked on snapchat (username: parisandroxy) and on instagram, if you wanted to see a swatch video on them and I got so many positive responses (yay). I did this video veryyyy differently because if I must be honest, makeup videos just aren’t my forte. So I decided to vogue for you…as I swatched the products on my lips. LOL

One of the main reasons I decided to even think about doing this video/post is because there are barely swatches on tan/olive skin- not only of this but soooooo many products. So I hope this helps you if you have a similar skin tone.
