May Favorites

Aquafina Advanced Hydration Rx Hydrating Facial Spray: I actually bought this long time ago when I wore mineral makeup. I would spray right after and my makeup looked dewy not cakey. Once I stopped using mineral makeup and went to pressed powder, I didn't need this spray anymore. Now I started using Make Up For Ever Pressed Powder, I needed this spray again. This spray is a life savor to hydrate the face, as well as, improve certain powders.

Anna Sui Rose Cheek Color in #301: This is my very first Anna Sui product and I'm just loving everything about it! Not only does it have a cute packaging, the blush is cute. I love the design and that the roses range in different colors. It also smells like roses. Coming from a person who only likes fruity scents, I actually don't mind the rose scent. It's not overbearing at all. It's pigmented and long lasting. What more can you ask for.

Born Pretty Store Snowflake Nail Art Polish Glitter Shimmer Colorful in #2: I received this product to review which will be up next week. Initially, I had a mixed reaction on my nails. Now that I've been wearing it for some time, I'm really loving it. It's gorgeous and full of mixed glitters. This was a life saver after 6 weeks of wearing OPI Liquid Sand from the Bond Girls Collection. I didn't think I could get that tired of one collection. :X

Make Up For Ever Pro-Finish Multi-Use Power Foundation in #120: I received this product from The Makeup Show LA, 2013. In the beginning, I had mixed reaction. There were days it look good on me and some days it looked cakey. I decided to use the Aquafina Advanced Hydration Rx Hydrating Facial Spray in combination with the foundation. It looked a lot better! It's a medium coverage foundation that you can use wet or dry. I personally have not used it wet, but I think I should test it out. For the foundation when it's dry, it's very easy to use and looks good when it sinks into your skin.

YoungBlood Outrageous Lashes Mineral Lengthening Mascara: I also received this from The Makeup Show LA, 2013. For a non-waterproof mascara, I am pretty impressed with this! It holds my curl and makes it look a bit longer. It's not one of those dramatic lengthening mascara, but it does lengthen a bit. I'm just impressed my curls hold up, as well as, make my lashes look good overall.

Lorac Multiplex 3D Lashes Mascara: I have a thorough review of this mascara. Please check it out. This is an alright mascara, it's not the best but I wouldn't say it's the worst. Through trial and error the best way for me to use this mascara was to coat once through the whole lashes. Then with the second coat, I would only apply at the tip or else my curl will not hold up. It did not lengthen, but it gave me a slight volume.

Would repurchase: No.

Basq Cucumber Tea Soothing Eye Gel: I received this product from GlossyBox. I also have a through review you can check out. When I received this product, I love how cooling the product was and it helped with hydration. My eyes looked good except for the fine lines under my eyes. I need a stronger product that will hydrate, as well as, help my fine lines. If you have dry skin and are young, I recommend this product.

Would repurchase: Maybe.

Crabtree & Evelyn Skin Revitalizing Body Lotion in Avocado Olive & Basil: I had a coupon to receive this product for free. Instead of using it as a body lotion, I used it on my hands. It was extremely moisturizing and great for my winter skin, as well as, a transition from winter to spring. If you do not have dry skin, I don't recommend this product. It is extremely thick and heavy. It's great for dry skin individual like myself. When it came to the scent, I was not keen in the beginning. I did not smell avocado or basil. It's a strong olive scent. With each usage, I got use to the scent and did not mind.

Would repurchase: Maybe.
