~FOTD~ Blue Liner and Pale Pink Lips....

 Its been a looonggg week...I'm exhausted, mentally, physically...can't wait to get some peace and quiet for my kids are off to the beach for a spell. I wish I was going to the beach too!

I went out today to pick up my reserved copy of The Help from the library. I'm excited to read it and see the movie. A good read is always healing for the soul.

I did a simple face, blue liner in the waterline, black mascara, pink gloss, pink cheeks....

 The liner is Kleancolor Love Me 365 Smoky Eyeliner in Smoky Blue...Its like a royal blue.

 The gloss is Kleancolor Girl Talk Lipgloss in Cotton Candy Glitter that I picked up at the BSS for $1. For a $1...it smells good and is pretty moisturizing. It has the consistency of a thick MAC Lipglass.

Been in the lab...playing and creating more hoop earrings...maybe for Fulle Cirkle....These are my budget rendition of those Basketball Wives glittery hoops earrings but wayy more low key and cheaper. lol! Have you checked out  Fulle Cirkle yet?:)))

I only went  to the thrift store because I was with my mother. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

As my know, my mother is thrifting/hussling type of broad, so she, the kids and I were all out and about in Spartnaburg and we stopped at her favorite thrift shop ran by the Safe Homes/Rape Crisis Coalition. Its a pure gem of a place. The problem is....its not open on the weekends.

Anyway...I scored some great vintage goodies and a pair of Jones New York cream lined slacks on my mom. She actually bought me something that wasn't a Christmas or Mother's Day present.O_o

Vintage Echo...they still make Echo but the script deems these vintage....

And YASSSSSS!!!! Christian Dior! I want to wear this in a pocket of a blazer or plus size coats for women or something.....



Total cost of everything: $5.

~Review~ mark. Got To Glow Gradual Glow Body Moisturizer....

Ok....I'm already dark skinned....ya'll know that. lol! But I like to be bronzey too. I tan a bit in the summer but not evenly because I won't lay in the sun....chile please. So, today, I'm reviewing mark. Got To Glow Gradual Glow Body Moisturizer, a self-tanning product I got to try in lieu of me sweating like a pig in the Southern sun.:)


Here to scoop on Got To Glow:

mark Got to Glow Gradual Glow Body Moisturizer with SPF 15 ($14) – this gradual glow body lotion provides a radiant, natural-looking tan while protecting the skin from the sun’s harmful rays with SPF 15.  This lotion builds a healthy color and leaves skin with a light shimmer and glow.  Perfect for extending the life of a tan or for giving natural, subtle color.

Pros:

-I really enjoyed the lightweight moisturizer. Its not heavy, soaked into my skin evenly, and had a light tropical scent

-It worked! It evened out my tan over a period of two weeks.

Cons:

-It has a shimmer to it that I could live with out.

-I think the packaging would fair better in a bottle with a pump. But I think all lotions and creams should be in a bottle with a pump. lol!

Overall:

-I like it!!! If anything, its a great lightweight moisturizer WITH a sunscreen all ready included. Good summer buy.:)
