Quickie Review:Veet Easy Wax Electrical Roll on Kit

This product is awesome.First off the wax is pink,how awesome is that!It is so easy to use,all you need is about an hour and a half to get the wax warmed up and be done!This product is virtually painless.It is also nice to know that it is super sanitary,unlike some salons. It pulls out the hairs nicely,but some times you may have to go over the section again.Also I like that they have 24 waxstrips instead of the original 12.Overall this product is amazing for at home waxing.I would recommend it with no hesitation.Check it out here:http://veet.us/easywax
I received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster.

Maybelline Vivid Lipsticks

I know I am kind of late on this whole vivid bandwangon.But about a week ago,I ran into the display at Kmart.When I saw the stand,I was so excited.I hadn't been able to spot these anywhere.There I picked up the vivid in 900 Hot Plum and it was about 6 somethin.After that,on the way home home I stopped at my local Walgreens,and lo and behold its another display.I was like where were you when these first came out!Usually my local Walgreens is on the ball.Anyways here I found the lipstick in the shade 875 Vivid Rose and it was about 8 and some change.I was kind of pissed because it was way more expensive at Walgreens.At first I had no idea why I bought these.I rarely wear lipstick and the colors were BRIGHT!But lately I've been obsessed with lippies.
Maybelline Claims:
♥Now bright goes gorgeous, never garish.
♥Brighter color from our exclusive vivid pigments.
♥Creamier feel from nourishing honey nectar.


Anyways on to review,overall I have nothing bad to say about these lipsticks.They glide on so smooth and creamy.The only reccomendation I have is to exfoliate your lips because does seem to excentuate small cracks.Pigmentation wise this formula os genious.They are so bright and ultra-pigmented.Also I find that these have a slight staining capability which I think makes them perfect for the beach.I think that these colors are perfect for both spring and summer.If you dont own at least one,what,are,you waiting for!Get out there and go pick one up!

Vaseline Spray and Go Total Moisturizer

When I think of this product,I think innovative.For years,I've been hoping for someone to be smart enough to come up with the idea.When this first came out I was ecstatic to try it out,but I promised myself I would finish my other regular pump one first.Around the time this product came out,I had filled out a VoxBox Survey for Influenster(If you're not sure what Influenster is I'll link it below).Any who,so when I was sent my Voxbox this little baby was in there.First off,I love the packaging.This spray come in 3 scents:Oat,Aloe and Cocoa Butter.I recieved the Oat lotion and I have to say I like it.Vaseline claims that the Spray and Go Line :
♥Moisturizes and absorbs in seconds
♥Instantly leaves skin soft, not sticky or greasy
♥Dispenses Evenly with on all-over spray
I have to say for me these claims hold true.For the moisturizing aspect I can't say that it is the most moisturizing lotion I've ever used.On my body, it definitely is not the best moisturizer.After about thirty minutes,I am ashy again.But,on my face it is perfect. I spray right before I apply my primer and it makes sure my skin is soft and moisturized.Another thing I love is that the formula doesn't leave a stick/greasy feel.With regular pump or squeeze bottle lotion the formula tends to be thick and greasy.As a person on the go and a track runner I want to be able to "spray and go".I don't want to suffer the consequences of dropping the baton or running with ashy cheeks.This lotion gives me the best of both worlds and I'm in love.

Need A New Mint Green Nail Polish?Try This One!

Don't Mind My Horrible Paint Job
The Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Nail (wheeew that was a long name) in Mint Sorbet has become my new favorite mint green.Before I was completely in love the Nicole by O.P.I (Modern Family L.E) nail polish in the shade Alex by the books.And one day I just happened to be going through my sister nail polish bin and bam! there it was.This shade is a little more green that Alex By The Books ,which is why it seems a little more like a mint green.
The product claims to:
For strength plus shine
Match your manicure to your mood
Easy grip, easy glide brush for control

As for strength plus shine that definitely holds up.This nail varnish has strengthened my brittle nails.Before my nails were so weak I could bend the tip of my nail back towards the base.Now they are way healthier and not as flexible.I guess you can say you can get a manicure to match your mood because this line has about 40 different shades.


As well as all that good stuff,the brush is pretty amazing its definitely easy to get around the edges of your nails.For someone who completely sucks at painting their nails,I was pretty happy that there was minimal mess around my nails.My favorite thing about this product is that it stays on forrrrrrrrrever.It stayed on my toes for  two weeks and some change.The lasting power of this is amazing and I would compare it to Essie and O.P.I but for a lesser price tag.  I definitely think I be will growing my collection of these nail polishes.

Shea Moisture : Hair Color System

Let me first say that rhis product is amazing.I picked mine up at a local target for $14.99 after looking for it for about a month.The first thing that caught my eye was the box.It looked so classy and the water color painting was brilliant.The color I picked up was bright aburn.When I first picked up this color I was a little worried because it looked so bright.But,the color chart on the back was reassuring.Because this was my first time dying my hair,it was extremely helpful to have both the color chart and a recommendation of what hair color to use it on. expensive.Now on the actual hair coloring process.For my sister (she died my hair)the brush method was a lot easier.We tried both methods and she found that the bottle clogged to easily.Anyways,it took about 45 minutes to cover my whole head with the dye.After that I let it sit for about fifteen more minutes.Rinsing out the dye did take a while but the shampoo and conditioning steps were a breeze.I kept my hair feeling soft and moistured.Overall the process was a fun experience and it left me with an amazing color.

Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel Oil Controlling Towelettes






Dickinson's Original Witch Hazel Oil Controlling Towelettes
I received these from Influenster a few weeks back.If you are unsure about what Influenster is I will have a link at the end of this blog post.Anyways, this box comes with twenty 5x7 towelettes.The company claims that the towelettes:
Refines pores and eliminates shine
♥Removes and controls oil
Soothes irritation
♥Locks in moisture

Though I wish I could, I can't say that the product lives up to all of it's claims.This product does a very good job at at refining pores and getting rid of oil,but it sucks all the moisture out of the skin.I have unbelievably dry skin and it gets even worse in the winter and spring.I thought these would help me right after track practice,when I'm all sweaty and gross.It did get rid of the disgusting oil and sweat,but once again dried out my skin.I also tried to use theses as makeup removers,but I had to slap on ten pounds of lotion afterward to keep it from drying my skin.Recently,I've seen a lot more dry patches on my face.I seem to find them mostly around the corner of my eye,on my eyelid, and around my mouth.Overall,I would'nt recommend this for my dry skin girls.I would say this would work really well for the oily girls because it seems to suck out all the excess moisture.
