Adela Told Me. . .

Hello Everyone! Thank you for joining me today. Today I will take you along as I get ready for a casual Saturday. Nothing fancy here, folks! I keep it to jeans and a T-shirt most days. Here we go! I don't have an "official vanity" set up yet. I have some makeup that I use on a regular basis on my counter top in my bathroom. I am working on getting an actual blogging area set up so in a few months I will move. Until then, this is what I'm working with. The organizer is from Lakeside Collection. I believe it was about $15. The mirror is double sided, one is regular view, the other is magnified. I found it at TJ Maxx for about $10. I already moisturized my face. I prepped my skin with Baby Skin and my under eye area with this primer from elf. My under eyes have been extra dry lately so I need all the moisture I can get! I've been using a salon tone concealer under my eyes lately. I have serious dark circles and this helps color correct th...

Welcome to our first Faithful Friday! Thank you for stopping by today! Faithful Friday is a new addition to Adela Told Me. Some of you may be wondering "What's the deal with Faithful Friday?" A few months ago, before I took a break from blogging, I started thinking of starting a new blog based on my faith. I decided to include this on Adela Told Me because after all, I am telling you about it! Don't worry! I'm not going to cram Jesus down your throat. I am simply sharing how my life has changed because of my faith, struggles I have had as a growing Christian, and things I've been thinking about. I realize that this may not be for everyone and that is totally fine. Just skip these posts on Fridays and I will see you back on Monday :) Here's my story... If I am going to talk about my faith in upcoming posts then I suppose it is a good idea to tell you how I became a Christian, right? I will start around the age of 14. I wasn't the best kid b...

Hello! It has been SO long since I've posted one of these! Believe it or not, I kept my "Empties Container" going as I was away from blogging. So I have a ton of trash I am more than ready to get rid of. I'm sure I managed to accidentally throw out some stuff but we will go through what I do have. As always, I will give you my thoughts on each product (as fast as possible) Note: Please bare with me on the format on these pictures. I was using a new photo editing app. If you have any good ones, let me know! Here we go! Makeup Wipes:  I used 4 packs of wipes. You may remember me raving about the Vitamin E wipes from TJ Maxx. Those have since been replaced with the Simple wipes. I LOVE these wipes. They stay moist through to the very last wipe. I stocked up on these when they were on sale. They remove all of my makeup super fast. They don't irritate my eyes or skin at all. Love! Face Masks/Wraps: Another TJ Maxx obsession. Mostly because ...
