Milani Lip Liners!

Here is my quick review of the Milani lip liners, I bought them without knowing they would be this amazing! They are super affordable being under $5 dollars and the pigmentation and softness of the pencil is beyond what I excepted from a drugstore lip liner. I also included the essence lip liners which just as amazing and even cheaper at $1.50 each can't beat that price for that quality.

Pretty Zombie Cosmetics!

Here is my review and swatches of the Pretty Zombie cosmetics liquid lipstick, I got three colors zombiebettie, 3 witches and purple poison. The processing and shipping takes way too long and the customer service doesn't email back when I emailed twice. The liquid lipsticks are very pigmented and they smear too much. Which is something you don't want in a liquid lipstick that is pigmented.
final thought would not repurchase them or even recommend them since Lime Crime is a smudge proof liquid lipstick and much faster shipping. Pretty zombie cosmetics

Botanics skin care & makeup line!

Here is a natural line of products I found at Target recently, its from Boots #7 line from the UK. It says it uses the power of plants in their skin care and make up line. I did try the skin care but ended up returning it since it irrupted my skin along with not really working well. So stay away from that, the make up remover burned the hell out of my eyes and didn't remove my makeup well either. The foundation is okay not my favorite but was worth keeping, the loose powder I didn't know had flexes of glitter in it so I wish I never bought that one. Overall I really wanted to like this brand but ultimately don't think its worth the price for the products.

I have two similar but different skin care gift sets from Sephora, one is from Sephora inside Jcpenny and one is from a regular Sephora. I have tried both sets and love the products.

Ardency Inn Pigments

Ardency Inn Pigments are beyond amazing, they are usually sold out on Sephora website but come back in stock, I found mine at Urban Outfitters online, they are worth the money if you are really wanting a certain color and really want the color pay off.

What it is:
A collection of organic and mineral pressed pigments enriched with mānuka honey.

What it does:

Superior color payoff is achieved through sky-high levels of pigments reaching up to 78 percent depending on the shade. High-grade silicon waxes provide ultralong-lasting wear, even without an eye primer.

What it is formulated WITHOUT:
- Parabens
- Sulfates
- Phthalates

Mini Skin Care Sets!

I found these two at Sephora, had to get them, such a great price especially if you just want to try out new products. Both are under $30
My thoughts on these sets: I always love Josie Maran products and really wanted to try the day time moisturizer and I love it. For the Boscia products the cleansing gel smelled weird and didn't get all my makeup off either but the sleeping facial is beyond amazing. I love small sets that way you try one product that might cost a lot more by itself then in a small kit.

What it is:
A three-step skincare ritual set for hydrated, healthy, protected skin.

What it is formulated to do:
For healthy, balanced, hydrated skin, Josie Maran's Argan Skincare Ritual is the place to begin. Cleanse, nourish, and protect skin with this set of Josie's three bestselling skincare products: Argan Cleansing Oil, 100% Pure Argan Oil, and Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 47. Each gentle, hydrating skin saver is packed with antioxidants and essential fatty acids to make skin glow.

The self-heating, non-greasy Argan Cleansing Oil hydrates deeply as it melts away makeup and dirt. It features Argan, safflower seed, and grape seed oils to cleanse the skin's surface and renew the complexion so that skin is left velvety—never oily, stripped, or dry. Nourishing and lightweight, 100% Pure Argan Oil repairs and replenishes skin while offering intense hydration. Protect skin with the all-natural, chemical-free Argan Daily Moisturizer SPF 47. Naturally scented and non-greasy, it’s infused with SunBoost ATB™—an innovative complex that promotes the effectiveness of the formula's natural sunscreens. Skin is left refreshed, hydrated, and protected.
What it is:
A cleansing routine to hydrate and retain moisture for softer, brighter-looking skin.

What it is formulated to do:
This set includes everything needed to soften and hydrate, bringing life to dry, dull skin. The exclusive deluxe-size Konjac Cleansing Sponge With Deep Hydrating Clay, deep cleans and nourishes the skin, while remaining gentle enough for the delicate eye area. Tsubaki Cleansing Oil-Gel provides thorough cleansing and deep hydration, and Tsubaki Deep Hydration Sleeping Mask forms a "moisture lock" to ensure maximum hydration during the sleep cycle.

Review: Loreal voluminous mascara

Loreal mascara 

Here is a quick review of Loreal voluminous mascara and the smoldering eye liner. The eye liner is so amazing, lasts on the water line for a very long time and comes with a sharpener too. My favorite thing about the mascara is the natural bristle brush and that its never clumps my lashes. Hope you find this helpful and find new products to try out.

shea moisture superfruit lineI have tried this line of products before and have a video about it, but when I saw this exclusive line at Ulta. I had to get it its my second favorite scent from the brand, so fruity and refreshing. Exclusive SheaMoisture's SuperFruit Conditioner contains powerful antioxidant properties that support and protect aging hair for the effect of UV exposure and other environmental aggressors. Nourishing oils hydrate and smooth coarse hair.

The hair serum is an Ulta Exclusive! Featured Ingredients
Superfruit - A blend of Red Raspberry, Ketones, Goji, Acai and Guava Extracts rich in anti-aging antioxidants. Marula Oil - Contains natural plant peptides that help support hair's elasticity. Biotin - Nourishes individual strands for thicker, stronger hair. Shea Butter - Deeply moisturizes while conditioning hair and scalp.

Usage
Shake well before using to get the full benefit.  Apply uniformed oil serum directly to scalp and work through hair paying particular attention to the ends. Style as usual. For best results, leave on for one hour then cleanse and condition. For a nourishing boost of moisture, apply a few drops of serum as needed. Upon sitting, the product will separate into its 2 phases.

Bottom line haven't tried anything I don't love from this line and would totally recommend it to anyone looking for great new hair and body care products that are formulated without all the junk you don't want in your hair and body care items.
