Revlon Beyond Natural Lash Review......CHECK THIS OUT!

   
I know I have been saying that I love everything lately but its true. Most of my new discoveries, I am absolutely in love with. Revlon Beyond Natural strip lashes are among the discoveries. So I have told you guys all about my strip lash experiences. When, I figured that I really had the hang of it I decided to purchase some real strip lashes. These Revlon lashes are great because you get like 4 pairs in one pack. The style that I have is 91182 FLIRTY. They look great and although they are strip lashes I wear mine for a week before I remove them. If I want them to look bold for my tutorials and pictures I just add mascara. Wearing everyday isn't too bad either. They aren't too thick or too thin. They are just right. you can get them for ten dollars at CVS but I know they have them somewhere else for a cheaper price. I just have to figure out where. I plan to go back to my flare lashes later this week but I will continue to keep these lashes on my list of must haves. Enjoy.....

New Nail Color...... Sally Hansen Review....CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I have a new nail color. Actually Ive been wearing it for over a week. Its from Sally Hansen's Hi-Definition collection. I love this nail polish. Not just the color but the nail polish itself. Very good quality. Its not surprising though because the brand has been around forever. I must say I do love the color also. The shade is 08 Hi-Res. It is very much so out of my comfort zone because its so bright and I'm so dark but after a day or so it grew on me. Just for the record, the colors that are in this season as far as nail polish are pinks and corals. Neither of which I really wear on my nails but I'm going to give it a shot. If you are interested in buying this polish it can be purchased at CVS for seven dollars. I didn't not pay anywhere close to seven dollars for this polish. I think I paid more like a dollar but I will tell you that seven dollars is a good price for this polish. It has not chipped at all and it looks the same as it did when I first did my nails. I haven't done any touch ups. So go ahead ladies give it a try. Enjoy....................

My Hair Cut and Hair Color.....CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So everyone knows that I cut my hair. Well I also colored the back. I promised to post pictures of the color and here they are. I do plan on doing another run of the red in about two weeks. Not to necessarily make it brighter but to make it more intense. This particular style is called a peek-a-boo. Meaning the cut and color is done to blend in a way where you will only see the color if I wear it up or curly or maybe even if the wind blows. At the bottom you can see the color but it looks plum not red red. Once the pics below where you can actually see the red is where I moved or combed my hair to the side for the picture. so any way here they are. Enjoy.....





Updated Brow Tools.......CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So a few months ago I was swearing by those brow pencils. I was in love with the brow pencils. Well, since then I received some brow powder. I have had it for a while now but I refused to use it because the first time I tried it things didn't work out so well. Since that time, about three weeks ago, I tried it again. I have been using it ever since. I'm in love with this brow powder.I figured out exactly how to use it. The powder is really dark so when you first apply it it appears to be gray. At first, that was really confusing but I discovered that that is a big help so you don't end up applying too much. I apply it with an angled brush and then I go in with concealer and shape my brow. It is so much easier to blend than the pencil. It is the same technique as before just different tools. For my concealer, I choose to use something a little lighter than my skin complexion so that way it lightens my face and gives the illusion that I have a natural highlight on my brow bone. The concealer is by Maybelline in Cafe 30. The brow powder does not have a name but it is in the shade Charcoal. Just wanted to update you all just in case you were looking for something easier. If you need a tutorial on the application just let me know and Ill do a video. By the way, any of these items can be purchased at Walmart, CVS or Walgreens. Enjoy.................

Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation Review.......CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhh I LOVE IT, DUH(in my teenage voice lol) I love this foundation. Today was my first time wearing it so I might wear it again tomorrow so I can be sure. I can honestly say, so far, that I love it. I dont know the cost or anything like that because this foundation was given to me but I like it enough to inform you all so you can purchase it. It has a yellowish under tone so at first glance I didnt think it would be a good match even after I put it on but it was the perfect match. I always use my home made fix plus with my foundations so they have that dewy finish so that along with a good base made the experience a good one. It made me look really natural and glowy. I recieved so many compliments on how nice my skin looked today. The shade was Almond 7. Also, another good thing about this foundation is that it has a pump so that means I dont have to waste foundation and I can avoid the mess that I have with other liquid foundations. It also has spf 15 which excellent considering that I live in Florida. I just love it. If you are interested in ordering this foundation please visit http://www.bobbibrown.com/. This one definitely goes on my "A list". Alright ladies, enjoy..................

Victoria's Secret Scent Review.......CHECK THIS OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 This scent is one that I have mixed feelings about. Its from the Sexy Little Things Collection. Its called Love Rocks. I love the smell of this scented mist. Its like a musk smell. Its definitely a night time scent. The only problem is it does not last at all. Maybe all of twenty minutes after you spray it. The bottle is small so if you use it on a regular basis it will run out fast. Its fifteen dollars at Victoria's Secret. Truthfully, as good as it smells, I would pass. Enjoy........................
