Review:Rimmel Sexy Curves Mascara in Extreme Black...

Monday, December 29, 2008

Here's another great mascara that I can't get enough of!!! Rimmel Sexy Curves in Extreme Black impressed me for real! Here's why:

-It made my lashes slightly "curvier".
-It also made good on the promise of "fullness" and "volume"
-I like that "silicone/rubber" brush
-handle not to long or short.It felt good and was easy to grab those inner lashes with ease( because of the 1st round bulb-like shape on the brush)
-light mascara formula, great for building coats on the lashes and not getting clumpy in the process.

HOLY GRAIL!!!!

N.O.T.D.: N.Y.C. Molten Metal


Good Morning!!!
Yesterday I was confined the comforts of home due to Baby Kel having tonsillitis. So we went NOWHERE.I stayed in my pjs ALL DAY.I literally don't think I've EVER done that!! I'm so serious...
I did get around to manicure on Saturday night with NYC's Molten Metal. I don't know...It looks "murky" on me. Very unfinished-like.I kept thinking I need another coat, even after two coats. I thought about sending this my great aunt who wears metallics like this...
Looks alot better on Kia than me...:)

Review: Mi-Spa Soap and Dry Oil...

Saturday, December 27, 2008

Another great sample out of My Pretty Pink Box in November was a small goodie bag from Mi-Spa. I got a soap samples of Lemon Sugar and Brown Sugar and Spice.

Lemon Sugar is fresh like rubbing a lemon all over you!!lol! I like lemon scents( I wore Fresh's Lemon Sugar to I couldn't anymore!) so now I'm lemming an entire bar:)

Brown Sugar and Spice is spicy and sugary. I pair this with my Korres Vanilla Cinnamon lotion for a cold weather yummies under a turtleneck...




My Sake Dry Oil sample...reminds of the two bottles of Fresh Sake I went through about four years ago!!! Love Love Love!!!! Plus, I love Sake anyway...( The drink.... with ginger ale..try it:))

Review: Beauty From The Earth...Multipurpose Minerals in Grape and Blueberry...

In my November My Pretty Pink Box , I received some great samples of a multipurpose mineral from a company called Beauty From The Earth. I got Grape and Blueberry. I was playing around today while the boys napped and I listened to the new Common CD( hot...people...hot!!).
I absolutely love them! I did Blueberry from the lashline to the midlid and Grape from the midlid to the crease...just playing around. The pigmentation is amazing in both....

Blueberry reminds me of MAC's pigment in Blue but brighter. Grape is going to perfect for a purple smoky eye I will be doing soon!!!




Beauty From The Earth has so many amazing colors( I need that Apple Green) and also has several tutorials on how to use these two colors and others!

Review:Sally Hansen Invisible Lip Liner....

Friday, December 26, 2008

Hi Folks!!

I hope that your Christmas Day was a blessed one!I had a great day...got a couple presents and such...but the best part is watching my kids rip into presents and boxes and be happy all day long!

I got Sally Hansen Invisible Lip Liner at CVS for 50% off the price. I guess its being discontinued. I'm always skeptical about stepping out of the nail polish box with Sally Hansen.I have couple of lip glosses that I love from there new improved lip collections.

I actually really love this product! Here's why:

-the waxy like texture really did fill in the lines around the edges of my lips(Due to a habit that me and the President-Elect share...sometimes).
-I saw a difference my gloss.It looked smoother...

But there is one "con"....

-The liner is too small...It needs to be a thick stick for all over lip application. I wear it all over my lips!


I'm going to the other CVS in town to see if I can find another one and another one...stock up on them...:)
