Sephora Sample Spree!!!!!!!!!


If any of you guys is ANYTHING like me then you LOVE free stuff! Well, Sephora is have a Sample Spree Ending April 5th on skincare products! The samples aren't much more than a few uses, but they can definitely help you decide where to go if you're in the market for a new skincare routine! You get 5 skincare samples with each order, and if you ask me that's realllllll generous!

I'll probably go to a Sephora this weekend and get in on this deal! You can look online and see which products you want before you go to the store so that you already know what you need by the time you get there! I'm going with Philosophy Purity Made Simple One-Step Facial Cleansing Cloth, Clinique All About Eyes Rich, Ole Henriksen African Red Tea See The Difference Serum, Lancome GENIFIQUE Youth Activating Concentrate, and Korres Quercetin & Oak Antiwrinkle Night Cream. You guys are probably like "why are you getting so much anti-aging items" and the reason why is because you don't want to wait until you get tons of wrinkles to try to fix them.... You gotta be proactive!!! :-)

Anyway, let me know what you guys pick!!!

Until next time....

Spring Nail Polish!

So spring is officially upon us, which means it's time to put away the dark purple and black polish & crack open all the pastels and neons!

Spring is the perfect time to experiment with colors that you normally may not try! While a baby blue color is not for everyone, it's perfect for that springtime feel but still appropriate for business settings. I have to be careful what colors I wear because of my job, so winter is a hard time for me. Spring allows me to experiment with my colors without looking offensive to a customer or fellow chemist.

Pastels are always pretty, and colors like lilac, mint green, or baby pink are absolutely gorgeous. Don't be afraid to try neutral colors too, like a light brown/rosy color. This spring I am definitely going to experimenting! You should too.

Review | Duo Water Proof Eyelash Adhesive

There is NOTHING worse than a chick wearing fake lashes and they're flapping in the wind and winking at you when she doesn't even realize it! The only way to fight the flap is to use a GOOD lash glue!

Duo Water Proof Eyelash Adhesive Dark Tone has proven to come through in the CLUTCH for me! I have put my lashes on with this glue at 8PM and my lashes lasted well into the wee hours of the morning without making me look crazy!

Check my video on YouTube to learn how to properly apply your lashes to make sure you are NOT that chick!!!!!!




Until next time...

Review | CVS Disposable Facial Sponges with Cleanser (normal to dry skin)

Today I have to talk about a face cleaning trick that has been keeping my acne at bay and really giving me a deep clean! CVS Disposable Facial Sponges with Cleanser have been life savers for my face.




I was always told that you should NEVER clean your face with a washcloth, and never dry it with a towel. The alternative to using a wash cloth to scrub your face is to use these CVS Disposable Facial Sponges.

I start with a new pad every morning! What I usually do is run the sponge under warm water and lather it up... wash my face once with the cleanser that comes out of the pad in the morning, and then set it aside in a clean area to dry until I'm ready to use it once more, before disposal, at night. Then, at night I wet my face and lather the sponge with my cleanser and scrub really well.. but not too hard!!!

You get 40 of these sponges in a case for $3.99 at CVS, so that's over a month's worth of cleaning if you use them my way... not bad! If you know you need a DEEP clean and just using your hands ain't cutting it... I recommend CVS Disposable Facial Sponges With Cleanser for normal to dry skin! They rock!!!

Garnier Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller | Review




I HAVE to give you guys the rundown on this product! I have heard awesome reviews on the anti-puff version of Garnier's Skin Renew rollers, so I just HAD to try the anti-dark-circle version... thinking I would have my own awesome reviews to write!

I WAS WRONG!!!!!!!!!!

Using this product just ONCE caused my eyes to break out and burn after I washed it off. The corner of my eyes are very dry and extremely sensitive... oh, and did I mention BRIGHT RED?!?!?! It looks almost as if someone punched me in the eye, but maybe it was a toddler with a mean right hook!

I advise everyone to avoid this product unless you are absolutely sure you do not have sensitive skin by your eye area. As for me... this product is blacklisted! I want nothing to do with Garnier's Nutritioniste Skin Renew Anti-Dark-Circle Eye Roller! It is EVILLLLLLLL! lol

I hope this post saves some of you from the same fate I had! Until next time....
