Review: Milani Mineral Mousse Foundation in Mocha....

Tuesday, March 16, 2010

Hey Everyone!!

I would like to thank everyone for the RG Birthday Wishes!

This is my first Milani Foundation. I always see them when I perusing their display but didn't' think they were brown girl friendly. Anyway, I found this Milani Mineral Mousse Foundation in Mocha in the Target Clearance for $1.48. I opened before bought it( Yes, and.....) swatched it. Seemed to match....then I bought it.


Pros:
-Perfect match. Perfect. And think its about to be discontinued
-kind of sheer. I had to build the coverage but I'm a heavy coverage girl.
-light fluffy formula. Reminds me of Maybelline's Mousse Foundation when it first came out and it was in a jar. Loved that stuff.

Cons:
-small container ) .50 fl oz. I've been using it for a week and I feel like I'm going to run out any day now
-doesn't dispense enough product in one pump to cover face.


Jamie's Take:

I pray to the Lord above to find more....at $1.48! lol!I can see myself wearing this all summer long. Lightweight and a perfect match.:)

In the morning when I rise....Weleda Sea Buckthorn Products...

Friday, March 12, 2010

I can’t say I’m not a morning person. I BECAME a morning person on August 18, 2004(the day the boys’ were born)!! So, I got to get up regardless of being exhausted and start the day as bright as I can. Staying bright in those early hours is the problem. Seems as though the orange, mandarin, and grapefruit trilogy that makes Weleda Sea Buckthorn Products have been became a blessing on the most roller coaster of mornings. I start off with Sea Buckthorn Creamy Body Wash as the perfect citrus shower oasis, then on to the Sea Buckthorn Body Oil that can be applied on wet or dry skin. Either way, it soaks in instantly and then the scent just mellows out. You can even apply whatever fragrance you like and the notes won’t compete with the Creamy Body Wash/Body Oil Combo. Even better, you can always remember the good time you had this morning with the Sea Buckthorn Hand Crème all day. There will be no sliding pens or pencils out of you hand. The Hand Crème soaks in a flash. Off to a fresh, new morning!!

Dupe-d: Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Nearly There and NK Lipstick in Honey Buff....

Thursday, March 11, 2010

I've been wanting Maybelline Colorsensentional Lipstick in Nearly There FOREVER but too cheap to break the $6.99 off for it.( Damn, Maybelline do a BOGO Free PLEASE!!) So, I was in the BSS 'browsing' and getting my beauty fix on when I spotted NK Lipstick in Honey Buff....
Because I have looked and looked and looked at Nearly There a zillion times, I KNEW this was a dupe!
Here's a swatch of NK Lipstick in Honey Buff on my hand....
And this is Honey Buff on my lips with MAC Cork and MAK Clear Gloss....

And Honey Buff was only $1.00....Yep:)

Rural Glamour: Revlon Illuminance Creme Eye Shadow in Electric Pop....

Wednesday, March 10, 2010

I got Electric Pop with the BOGO Free last week. I've been wanting this for a minute and my CVS only had one left...whew.
I actually own two other Illuminance Creme shadows....They are dirt old...I mean pre-kids old. I used rock the hell out the second one. See, its at pan! I didn't really care about creasing, shading, blending back then.

( I don't use them now. I just keep them for nostalgia sake, like my two Caboodles train cases.:))
I used all four colors.

Of course they crease. BUT, if you had the matching powder shadows for this palette...that would be the bizness!
Say HELLO to my broken-out face!!lol!
If you don't care about creasing, buy it. Its really pretty and I plan on using it for base colors...
