I was at Target Sunday night, and was looking for an inexpensive navy eyeliner when I realized there were a lot of the well known orange clearance stickers on random products up and down the aisles. Far be it from me not to look at all of the possibilities and for under $10 I came home with 3 eyeliners and an eyeshadow. I got the NYC Eyeliner Duet duet in Islands In the Stream.

Fast Drying Gel Nail Polish

Fast Drying Gel Nail Polish

The two things that make getting, or giving yourself a manicure a pain are: waiting for the nail polish to dry, and it starts chipping almost right away. However, gel nails cure this problem all on its own. About 6 months ago a few of my friends were telling me about their gel nail polish, and  about how fantastic gel nail polish is. I saw the Nutra Nail Gel Perfect UV-Free Gel-Polish box and … [Read more...]

Purple Eyeliner Has Met Its Match

theres more to purple than meets the eye

In the last 2 years we've seen purple eyeliner as one of the bright pop eye colors of the season. It is a great color to accentuate your eyes without being over the top. I like to pair my purple eyeliners with a very light purple eye shadow. It can temper down a bright purple eyeliner, and it softens the look. Here are some great examples of purple eyeliner: Almay intense i-color eyeliner … [Read more...]

Braun Ion Brush

The Braun Ion Brush truly makes hair soft and shiny while controlling the frizz. It's hard to believe a hair brush could actually do all of that, but it in fact does. It's hard for me to ever believe any hair tool can actually live up to its claim. The Braun Ion Brush actually does exactly as it claims to do. It gets my frizzy hair shiny and smooth. The brush releases ions that automatically … [Read more...]

I Am A Lipstick Queen

When I saw the name of this lip gloss on the side of the tube, I knew it was made for me. I mean who doesn't want to try a lip gloss with the name Lipstick Queen? It gets better...the lip gloss is called Big Bang. Sold! I'm glad I decided to try it, because it is an awesome non-goopy (yes that's the technical term) lip gloss that I love wearing. I have the Cosmos color, and it is my current … [Read more...]

Sephora Collection Nail Bling

Sephora Collection Nail Bling

For New Year's I thought I'd bling out my nails with the Sephora Collection Nail Bling. I got the black rainbow, and it really is blingen' style, and so much fun. At $7, makes it cheaper than its Sally Hansen counterpart. The Nail Bling is easier to put on, however, because the dots are 3D, you have to be a bit more careful when filing off the ends. I actually wound up using my metal … [Read more...]

Cover Girl Intense Shadow Blast

Cover Girl Intense Shadow Blast

When you look at the packaging on the Cover Girl Intense Shadow Blast you see that it is not only an eye shadow, but also a eye shadow primer. I think it's brilliant and a much needed product. On numerous occassions I have half my eye makeup on when I realize that I forgot to put my eye shadow primer on. It's so agravating. When I found the Intense Shadow Blast in a box I was keeping some samples … [Read more...]
