May 2015 Ipsy Bag

Hey guys!!! I know it has been a long time I have done an Ipsy bag post, but I had not been very happy with the bags so it was pointless to post about it if I was not happy about them. I decided to retake the quiz and see if they improve. Surprisingly this bag was amazing and I want to show you what I got: I am a huge fan of the bag. How can you not love it? Look at it! Haha! Rosarco Milk Reparative Leave-In Conditioning Spray I am glad I received this because I love trying out new hair products. This reminds me a lot of the its a 10 leave-in conditioner. I am enjoying this product because it makes my hair feel soft and smell good, but I don't think it really helps with the frizz in my hair. The best part is that it is paraben, silicones, phthalates, and synthetic fragrances free. Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Lip Pencil & Bonus Revolution High Color Lip Gloss I received the lip liner in ozone and it is just a clear lip liner that will help with feath...

Birchbox May 2015 Unboxing

Hey guys!!! Time to show you guys what I received in my Birchbox this month, but unfortunately I am not a fan of a couple of things. I will be giving some them to other people who will enjoy using them. Naobay Oxygenated Cream Moisturizer-  It is made with avocado and olive oils. It is supposed to nourish and hydrate your skin. I found my holy grail moisturizers so I will not be trying this one out, but I will be giving it to someone.  Laura Geller Beauty Color Drenched Lip Gloss-  This is a pigmented lip gloss that gives shine and moisture to your lips. I didn't try this one out, but I decided to give it to someone else just because I wanted to do something nice.  Benefit Cosmetics The POREfessional-  I hate this product. I have tried this before and I was not happy that I received this so I will see if anyone else will want to try this. Marcelle Clay Mask-  It is loaded with natural ingredients to clarify and brighten the skin. One of ...

Bella Voxbox

Hey guys!!! I received another box from Influenster. I received all these products complimentary from them for testing purposes. This time it is the Bella Voxbox. I am always excited to receive these boxes and it is free to sign up and all you have to do is review things on the website to start qualifying for these boxes.  I was excited to try out everything. I have heard of a few of these products and I been wanting to try them out for a while now so I was glad it was in this box. Kate's Scandaleyes Mascara I already knew I wasn't going to love this mascara because it was not waterproof, but I still wanted to try it out at least once. Unfortunately, this mascara did nothing for my lashes. It didn't give any volume or length on my lashes. When I applied this was just like if I was coating my lashes with mascara and that's it. Nothing impressive about this mascara at all. It has an interesting wand and I actually liked the wand, but not the mascar...

EYEKO Skinny Liquid Eyeliner

Hey guys!!! I received the EYEKO Skinny Liquid Eyeliner in my February 2015 Birchbox and I have been testing it out ever since. As most of you know my holy grail liquid eyeliner is the Kat Von D Tattoo Liner and nothing has compared to that, but to my surprise this one is now my second favorite liner. There is one thing I don't like about it which you will soon find out! Look at how black this liner is! It is very pigmented with one swipe.  This liner is actually easy to use and I was really impressed. I was able to do my wing with no problem and that is important because I cannot go without winged liner. I honestly don't know if this is waterproof or not, but the website says it is smudge proof and so far I haven't had issues with this smudging whenever my eyes water due to allergies.  I love how black this is and to my surprise it is more black the Kat Von D one, but there is one thing I do not like about this one. I love that it dries matte, BU...

Beauty Blender & Beauty Blender Micro Mini

Hey guys!!! As some of you know I was loving my Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge and it was holy grail status. I will still use it for whenever I don't have this next product, but this product is actually a little better than the Real Techniques one. I know I barely hauled this last month in my IMATS Haul , but I was really excited to talk about it. I had been wanting to try out the Beauty Blender for so long, but I wouldn't pay around $20 for a sponge when I could just buy the Real Techniques one for around $6. I also didn't find the Beauty Blender Micro Minis necessary when you can use the regular beauty blender for the exact same thing, but I was impressed with it. As most of you know you need to run these under water and squeeze out the excess water before you use them. They will double in size once you do that. It is supposed to absorb less product and help you use less product as well. The beauty blender practically gives the same finish t...

Jane Cosmetics Eyes That Inspire Water-Resistant Eyeliner Set

Hey guys!!! I was in a Kohl's store during the holidays season and I noticed that a few Jane Cosmetics products were popping up there. I saw the Eyes That Inspire Water-Resistant Eyeliner Set by the checkout and I had heard great things about it so I purchased it. (Top to bottom: Deep Purple, Purple Lilac, Brown Shimmer, and Black) I saw these colors and I was really excited especially the Purple Lilac shade. Sadly that one is my least favorite one. Here are the swatches: (Left to right: Black, Brown shimmer, Lilac Purple, Deep Purple) As you can maybe see on the swatches the black and brown shades it was just one swipe, but the two purple ones I had to do like 3 swipes for it to be that pigmented. I am going to talk about every single shade individually because each one I have something different to say. Black : This is a really pigmented black shade, but it doesn't last all day on my waterline. I do have to touch it up throughout the day and u...

Origins Brush Cleaner

Hey guys!!! As most of you know my holy grail Brush Cleaner for spot cleaning during the week is the Clinique Makeup Brush Cleanser , but when I went into the store to buy more they didn't have any left. I needed something ASAP since I had no more left and they showed me the Origins Brush Cleaner so I bought that instead.  I honestly haven't had too many products that I have tried from Origins that I strongly dislike, but this is actually one of those products. I have to spray my brush so many times for the product that is on it to actually come off especially the big brushes. Since I spray the brushes so many times with it it takes longer to dry and no one has time for that during the work week. Whenever I try to clean the concealer brush or foundation brush I have to really rub the brush on the towel hard and spray about 8 times for the product to come off. With the Clinique one the most was 3 sprays for the product to come off. Also I don't like the scent...

April 2015 Favorites

Hey guys!!! I didn't do a favorites post last month and I almost didn't do one this month because I have been testing out lots of makeup. There are some products that I have been consistently using throughout the last two months which is why I decided to go ahead and do this post. Batiste Dry Shampoo - My holy grail dry shampoo is the tinted dry shampoo in medium & brunette, but I decided I wanted to try a different one. I have heard a lot of people talk about the Sassy & daring wild kind of the batiste dry shampoos and I love it. I was going to do a review on it, but I decided not to its practically the same thing as the tinted one. Only thing you have to brush it out after letting it sit for a few minutes on your scalp to let it soak up your oils because if not you will get a white cast. Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara - When I first tried out this mascara I loved and hated it. This is a great mascara, BUT because it isn't waterproof my lashes f...
