Review:Sonia Kashuk Blending Sponge...

Wednesday, September 24, 2008


I know I'm super late on this one. But decided to pick the Sonia Kashuk Blending Sponge because I want the Beauty Blender Sponge. I have alot of liquid foundations and Tarte Cheek Stains that I do in the fall/winter but it is $19.95( for ONE) and I have saw on other blogs people doing comparison review with the Sonia Kashuk Blending Sponge. And it was $9.99. So I need to get my $10 worth since the $10 would've been gas for the non-existent gas we have South Carolina( We are running out). Does that make sense? Let's just say I almost returned due to a guilty conscience or pockets.


But chucked those feelings quick and popped this baby open Sunday and I totally love it. I used it wet with the Burt's Bees Tinted Moisturizer. That was too sheer.
Monday, I used it dry with a Revlon Foundation and it worked great. I got under my eyes without pushing lashes in my eye like my foundation brush does.
Tuesday, I applied Tarte Cheek Stain in Bronze Goddess by picking up the product with sponge and it gave my cheeks the dose of color I've been trying to get with those cheek stains FOREVER. I think I'm going get my mom one to put her stocking for Christmas. She's fan of makeup sponges and she'll like this one!:)


P.S.-This was the first time I ever saw in stock at the Spartanburg Tar-jay. So if your store does have it, you can get it online too. Click here!

Mornin' Folks!

Wake up! The weekend is over and for me, it was great! I wore them midgets out! lol! But then they wore me out yesterday and we were through by Sunday night ! whew!

I observed so much and I must give it to you in bullets:

-Its back! It's back! Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte! *screaming*




-You know those Stickers in Lucky Magazine?I've started to use them in other magazines and books. They are better than Post-its, I tell ya!




-Ever notice the wardrobe of Helen on The Jefferson's? She was FIERCE!!! I mean she was rocking the flip and the glossy berry lip like nobody's bizness...R.I.P Soror Roxie Roker!






-Checkout out the new lines of makeup at Target...Lauren AKA " Ask Fashion Kitty" ain't never lied...$18 dollar eyeliner, $34 makeup palettes?...that's what Sephora is for.

*Jemma Kidd-Pricey, Pricey! I know Target ain't Wal-Mart but dang.
*Pixi-Personally, I little too "blonde haired, blue eyed" for me. The packaging its self is iffy.
*Napoleon Perdis-Now...that's what I'm talking about! Diverse and it's got sexy lipglosses...





-Can we get a round of applause for Miss Adeea over at Haute & Hair?!!! She has wrote an open letter to Essence that ain't nothing truth and hopefully will set that magazine FREE, honey. Cause' I'll be real honest...I didn't buy that new edition with Mo' nique on it because she been on that cover so many times, I'm bored...






-Check out this cute bag @ Sephora!

Weekend's Ahead....

Friday, September 19, 2008


I'm such a freaking procrastinator, it ain't even cute. I had "important" stuff to do today but I didn't do it.I've done nada but pay a bill or two, order in Mexican food,watch my Momma's digital cable, surf the net, and wonder what to do this weekend with the boys...
Maybe we'll go to the bookstore in the morning or something. Anything to get out the house. Anywho...Have a blessed weekend...no, I really mean that! lol! We all don't have these super busy, exciting, and electric lives but some of us do:)...So have a great weekend.:)
My Birthday is over horizon ya'll. My My Space page already got me as "31"(?). I'm starting to get b'day cards in mail, too. My mother said she was going take me out to eat but then said I didn't need to go because I needed save money. What? Was I going to have to pay for my OWN birthday meal? She crazy, I tell ya. And I've been broke...I'm just not going to stay broke!!! Hallelujah! The blessings are coming each and every day. I haven't gone through financial hardship for nothing...It's a test. Think about it.:)
Just collecting my b'day cash because I'm spending on myself...and Verizon Wireless will get part of it too.
And...check out this new Chanel nail "lacquer" in Haut Chocolate. I saw this twice over at The Makeup Girl and must have it!
