A lot of mascaras leave lashes feeling stiff and hard to the touch but this is certainly not the case with Yves Saint Laurent Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara. 



Yves Saint Laurent Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara is enriched with B5 pro vitamin which is why it allowed my lashes to look thicker and feel softer. It's amazing formulation made my lashes look voluminous and added major length. The YSL mascara has a very rich formula which gave my lashes a deepen and darkened effect. It also made them look thicker and the texture was outstanding. The mascara has an amazing smell to it. It's smells like the most luxurious perfume money could buy. Not only did the YSL mascara provide lots of volume and length, but it never flaked, smudged, clumped or dried out. It's incredibly long wearing. If your looking for the must haves in mascaras the Yves Saint Laurent Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara is the one to get. It's definitely the Best of the Best in the mascara world.

Mani Monday - Camila Coelho Y|N|C Nail Polish Review

Monday, January 12, 2015

Hey it's Monday! I decided to make it a series here on my blog to post and review my favorite must have nail polish every Monday. I recently had the pleasure in testing and reviewing the Camila Coelho Y|N|C nail polish in the shade Purple Dream.

I've been getting so many compliments wearing this nail polish. I'm constantly being asked what shade is it and what's the brand so I decided to blog about it. Camila Coelho is the super gorgeous and super talented Brazilian beauty guru on YouTube. She has a new nail polish collection available in an array of colors. The collection of nail polishes are available for purchase online at RicksNYC and YenzahBeauty website. I have been sporting this polish on my nails for a while and I'm truly loving it. The color is absolutely exquisitely FAB-U-LOUS! Applying two coats of this fantastic polish leaves my nails looking beautifully glossed. No need for any top coat! I've never seen a nail polish that gives my nails so much shine. The secret to all that shine comes from the diamond particles that are contained within the polish. Not only does it shine and gloss your nails but it also strengthens your nails too. The color doesn't fade, chip or lack luster and I've had it on for weeks. The nail polish definitely looks and feels high end. The winter collection is now available in all new colors.

Glitter Me Girly

Monday, December 15, 2014

Oh Ipsy has done it once again with its November Glam Bag - Girl Meets Glitter. It was absolutely marvelous. There wasn't one product in the bag that didn't work its magic. Let's get to know this month's bag!


SIGN UP FOR IPSY HERE

If you aren't signed up with Ipsy you're definitely missing out. At only $10 a month, subscribers receive an awesome makeup bag filled with full deluxe and full-sized sample beauty products from top name brand beauty cosmetic company's.

This month's Ipsy Bag was called "Girl Meets Glitter" and it had me gleaming with joy.



From it's bright pink zipper (my favorite) to its nail lacquer look and feel, the bag was glittering with fun. This is definitely now my go-to bag to stash my girly girl makeup. Forever 21 is a clothing and cosmetics company which gears to a younger audience  and was this month's brand of choice to design such a pretty and girly makeup bag for Ipsy.

In this month's Ipsy bag I received three full sized and two sample sized beauty products. Inside I found the J.Cat Wonder Lip Paint, Be a Bombshell Eye Base, Temptu Highlighter, Elizabeth Mott Eyeliner and the Marc Anthony Argan Oil. Let's take a closer look at all these amazing beauty products.

 J.Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paint

The J.Cat Beauty Wonder Lip Paint in the color Red Potion was outstanding. I was lucky enough to receive the full size which retails for $4.99. The lip paint's color is a little intense and has lots of pigmentation. If you're looking for a more subtle daytime look I would say a little goes a long way with this lip paint. So dab lightly. Increase the color as you go because the more you apply the darker it will appear. The formulation is very liquidly. You will definitely need to use a lip brush when applying to your lips. The lip paint also gives my lips a glossy effect.  Beauty Tip: I found that tapping my finger against my lips gave the lip paint a more even look. All in all I give this Lip Paint a thumbs up.



Elizabeth Mott You're so Fine Water Proof Liquid Eyeliner

The Elizabeth Mott You're So Fine Water Proof Liquid Eyeliner in the color Glitterati ($17.99 value) made a fabulous addition.
I've never liked liquid liners but this liner was different than the rest. It contains micro glitter which I just love. It gives any eye look a festive appeal. And with the holidays fast approaching it would be great to use. Something else that I really enjoyed was that it didn't transfer on my eyelid, it doesn't smudge or even fade off. It's an A+ in my book. 

Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray       

With this wintery weather and gusty winds at times I'm in desperate need of hairspray that can make my hair stay in place without the stiffness.  The Marc Anthony Oil of Morocco Argan Oil Volume Shine Hairspray ($8.29 Value) was absolutely fantastic. It definitely did that and more. Unlike other hairsprays that have a not-so-great odor; this one had an amazing smell to it. It left my hair stiff free, with no stickiness at all, and didn't even make my hair frizzy either. Astonishing! right?! It gives my hair the perfect amount of hold and makes it look healthy too. It's also the perfect size to carry in my bag for those touch up days.
 
 
Temptu S/B Highlighter
   
I'm always looking for a new highlighter and when I saw the Temptu S/B Highlighter ($27.50) I was definitely a happy camper. I highlighted my cheek bones, down the strip of my nose, along my temples and even on the tip of my cupid's bow just to give that extra pouty look to my lips. It was subtle and effective. It gave me just enough shimmer and shine to give me the look I was going for. I will definitely be repurchasing this when I run out.
 
 
Be A Bombshell Eye Base
 
The Be A Bombshell Eye Base in the shade Submissive ($14.00 Value) was quite surprising to me. I say that because I was able to use it in many different ways. It works great to use as a eyeshadow for a subtle daytime look or I could use it as a base color to build up an eyeshadow for more of a smokey eye look. I found it to be highly pigmented, long lasting and fade resistant. The texture was very smooth and easily glided on. I see myself purchasing more from Be a Bombshell Cosmetics.
 
As you can see, I received three full-sized products that totaled a value of over $36.00. It's an amazing deal. Don't wait and sign up for this fabulous monthly subscription.
 
 
 
 

 


Bye Bye Dry Skin

Sunday, December 7, 2014

Bye Bye dry skin and Hello to beautiful looking skin. That's exactly how I felt using Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Fragrance Free Skincare Lotion which I received from Influenster in my Vaseline VoxBox.

www.Influenster.com
Vaseline claims that after 5 days of using their product you will see your scaly skin healed and moisturized. Well I saw a difference using the product after only three days. I suffer from dry chapped skin and during the winter months it becomes even more drier. I used the product on a daily basis after showering and would latter the lotion all over my body.

I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes
I instantly saw a difference. My skin felt softer, smoother and very moisturized. The lotion has a jelly like formulation. It never felt greasy. It glided on smoothly and sinked right into my skin providing much needed hydration. My skin never felt or looked better as it does after using Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Fragrance Free Lotion.

Walmart Has A Subscription Box?!

Tuesday, October 21, 2014

Lately there has been a flood of subscription boxes available. During one of my usual Instagram postings, I saw that one my followers had posted a pic on a beauty box available from Walmart. I was astounded to find out that Walmart even had a subscription beauty box.


I was even more astounded to find out the price! For only $5.00 you receive a box filled with beauty products. When I heard about this absolutely amazing beauty box, I immediately went to the website and signed up! Every season Walmart develops a box filled with new beauty products to fulfill your beauty needs. The Walmart Beauty Box is made as a seasonal box which is shipped out during the Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer Season. The Walmart Beauty Box is free, you only pay for shipping and the cost of shipping is only $5.00. You get charged for the beauty box when the box is shipped to you. At this amazing price how can anyone pass up such a great deal. And the best part, the total cost of the products in the beauty box surpass the price of the shipping cost.


 
I was able to sign up just in time to receive the Fall box edition. Days after me signing up it SOLD OUT. If you hurry you'll be able to get the Winter box edition which is now in preparation. If you're interested DON'T WAIT SIGN UP NOW so you don't miss out.


Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging Micro-Sculpting Cream

In my Walmart Beauty Box Fall Edition I received a deluxe sample size (0.5 oz) of the Olay Regenerist Advanced Anti-Aging Micro-Sculpting Cream. The full size Olay cream (1.7 oz) on Walmart.com retails for $23.94. This is a moisturizer that is suppose to hydrate your skin and soften the look of fine lines and wrinkles. It contains a bit of fragrance. The fragrance is not over powering it actually smells really good.
 

 
CoverGirl Continuous Color Lipstick
 
Something I love receiving in beauty boxes are lipsticks. So when I received the full size CoverGirl Continuous Color Lipstick in the shade Vintage Wine I was elated. The lipstick retails for $4.94 on Walmart.com. The lipstick shade is the perfect color for this Fall Season. It feels very moisturizing. I am going to have so much fun wearing this on my lips. The price of this lipstick alone pays for the box!
 
 
 Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy Shampoo And Conditioner
 
Something else I really enjoy about subscription boxes is being introduced to new beauty products that I've never heard about before. When I saw I had a sample of the Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy Shampoo and Conditioner For Damage & Color Repair hair I was over the moon. The full sized Shampoo and Conditioner (21.9 fl oz) each retails for $6.98 on Walmart.com. I'm very eager to try it out considering the fact that I need lots nourishment for my dry and over processed locks.
 
Secret Clinical Strength Clear Gel Deodorant

 One of the best products to come in my beauty box was the full size Secret Clinical Strength Clear Gel Deodorant. It retails for $7.92 on Walmart.com. I've been using the Secret Clinical Strength for Sensitive Skin for a couple of years now. I can honestly say it's the best deodorant on the market. It keeps me dry all day, it doesn't irritate my skin, and smells great. I haven't tried the clear gel formulation yet but I'm sure it  well do a great job giving me the protection I need keeping me sweat free.

Loreal Revitalift Triple Power Deep-Acting Moisturizer

To my surprise I didn't receive one but two face creams. This beauty box made my day! I received a deluxe sample of the Loreal Revitalift Triple Power Deep-Acting Moisturizer. The full size moisturizer  (1.7 oz) retails for $19.97 on Walmart.com. I've been searching for a good moisturizer that I could use on my neck for quite sometime. I feel like this moisturizer will definitely do the trick. It smells amazing. I love how it glides smoothly and goes on light on my skin. It makes my skin feel incredibly soft and smooth. So far its been a great product to use.

 
Couture Couture by Juicy Couture Eau de Parfum Spray

To top it all off I received a sample size perfume of Couture Couture by Juicy Couture Eau de Parfum Spray. The full size perfume (1 oz) retails for $27.10 on Walmart.com. The perfume smells fantastic. The scent is not overpowering at all. It smells sweet and fresh. It smells so good that I'm really considering purchasing the full size perfume when I run out of the sample.

This Walmart Beauty Box was absolutely thrilling. I was so ecstatic that I was able to sign up in time to receive the Fall beauty box. I can't wait to find out what's in store for Walmart's Winter Beauty Box which is coming soon. Stay Tuned!
