Ipsy bag


Adesse New York- Color received *Deception*
"Sly and treacherously beautiful. Creamy drama with just a hint of neutral." 
  • Sales For $18 / My Value- $18 
  • Full size sample 
  • Great nail product not my color
  • Mommy Tried it and Mommy likes it... in another color

 I like that it was easy to apply and that it dried quickly. I had to use the recommended two coats for complete coverage. It said it had a self leveling brush but I'm unsure what that means (Hello I'm an amatuer!) It is supposed to mimic a gel finish without using those awful cancer causing lights so that is great. I personally do not like this color as I love fall colors but I like mine to be brighter. However, it did perform as it said it would its just a matter of personal preference. They have an assortment of colors to choose from. I feel that as basic as I am with beauty products this is easy for a for anyone to use.

(Gel effect polish is 5 Free, Cruelty Free, Paraben Free, Sulfate Free, Petrochemical Free, GMO Free, Triclosan Free, Vegan and Made in New York. Not tested on animals)

Colour Pop- Lippie Stix, Color received *Glam Bag*

"Get one swipe pigmentation in a full-coverage, ultra matte finish in a comfortable formula loaded with skin-loving ingredients like shea butter and Vitamin E."

  • Retails For $5 /My Value- $5
  • Full size sample
  • Great product not my color
  • Mommy Tried it and Mommy likes it..in another color 
This Lippie dries to what I would call a Magenta color which I do not like on my skin tone. However, this is the best matte lippie I have tried so far. I didn't do any lip prep and I had no issues with sticking, cracking, or dry feeling. The color is very long lasting. After allowing some "dry down" (I learned a new term and technique) I would blot once or twice as it doesn't effect the color but helps with less transfer. I fell asleep wearing this and woke up the next morning with still Magenta lips. This is a great product made my lips feel smooth I just wish it came I got another color. 

( NO Parabens or Sulfates, Vegan and Cruelty Free)



Pixi Beauty Blush Duo- Color received *Peach Honey*

Kisspat Desgin Natural Peacock Feather Earrings

Kisspat Earrings Needs better lighting cause these blues should be popping Hello Everyone! Hope the month of November is treating you right.

Amazon Beauty Box UnBoxing

Amazon Beauty Box Let  me start off by saying...........So disappointing! This is the first box I bought from Amazon's Beauty Box Line and I wanted to be surprised and compare it to other boxes I have bought in the past. So I didn't look at what was in the box and if you were thinking about getting the box while "supplies last" I would skip this box. There are too many foil packets in this box to really sample and get a feel or even hooked on a product. If your a company that is going to try to get new customers its not going to happen trying your product out once. Just not happening. Sorry. I tried my best to look through amazon to try to get comparative prices and find out what the sample sizes would cost to see if the box which is $11.99 was worth the buy. I have come up with a total of $22.55. I could not factor in the L'Oreal Age Perfect or Revatalift because they did not give a volume total on the packets. Most of this cost can be attributed to...

Everbellus Faux Leather Pants

Faux Leather Pants Wow, I have to say I'm pleasantly surprised about these pants. Everbellus was kind enough to let me try these pants out at a discount for my review.  Want to skip the reading you can watch my video here. These are Faux Leather Pants and the are fantastic. I love dressing up for date night when my husband and I go out and have a little kid free fun. These pants do not make me feel self-conscience and this 32 year old mama doesn't have the body of a 19 year old. I have put on some weight, stretch marks, and cellulite and these are the very reason I avoid pants like these. These pants are made out of spandex and polyester. They have a smooth silky feel on the outside and a nice soft fabric on the inside so your not feeling rubbery. These pants are stretchy and have an elastic waistband. They are super comfortable to wear almost like a second skin! I couldn't stop running my hands down them. The sides have a lattice pattern and stop and just t...
