I received a single serving sample of Caltrate 600+ D3 soft chews and thought I would share that the taste is great.
Well this product is great because even though it's great for your bone health, it has a hint of chocolate flavor, it's sweet and can be used as a sweet treat replacemt haha!
Each soft chew has 15 calories
Vitamin D3 800 IU - 200%
Calcium 600 mg - 60%
Sodium 10 mg - <1%
For ages 13 and older.
It does contain sou and milk (just in case you're allergic).
This can be eaten with or without food.
You can find a pack of 60 soft chews for $7.99 at Target.
So, a few months ago I made a purchase at Ulta, and received a bag full of their products, and it included "Super Stretch Fiber Mascara". I personally like to only use one mascara at a time, so I was waiting for the mascara that I was using at that time to be finished, so that I could move on to the next one.
Well, this mascara was waiting for a while, specially because just by looking at the packaging and because I got it for free, I assumed that it was going to be a sucky one.
Well, to my surprise, it proved me wrong!!! I think it's now one of my favorite mascaras!
I would like to mention though, that I have only been using it for the past two weeks, so at this point I would not know if it dries out fast or anything like that.
What I can assure you though, is that it definitely makes your lashes look longer. I won't lie, I do apply at least 5 coats of it. I have always applied several coats of any mascara, as I like them to look long and thick as possible. I'm not sure how many coats everyone else applies, I just do what works for me lol.
The pictures below, show me using a different mascara, which I'm not liking! (I will post a review on that one later, I want to continue using it to see if it changes my mind.)
Now the picture below, is the one using this fabulous Super Stretch Fiber Mascara!
I'm honestly amazed with the results, as this mascara is so unexpensive! You bet for sure, I will be going back to Ulta to buy some more!
So, you can find this mascara at your local Ulta store or online. Regular price is $10, but Ulta always has great deals, where you can purchase their brand products for $5 or Buy one at regular price, and get the second one free. (Currently they have buy 2 products and get 2 for free).
So, that's all for today, just wanted to share my personal experience with this mascara, that tought me to stop making assumptions without giving products a try!
Well ladies please feel free to leave any comments or suggestions.
You can also follow me on Instagram , I love to follow back and enjoy other's pictures as well!
This another review for limited Edition Makeup by One Direction.
I'll start with my favorites!
Rock Me Nail Varnish
What's inside the kit?
Nail Varnish:
Happily– UV iced blue glitter
Moments- UV neon pink
Diana- UV 3D holographic
Glitter Toppings:
Kicks- UV snow cone blue
Not afraid- UV electrified pink glitter
Star-- UV holo glitter
So as usual, you would have to apply the glitter toppings when your nail polish is still a bit wet.
Below, you can see a few of the pictures that I took after I played with the nail polishes.
My favorite color is "Moments" Omg, I like that color so much, and applying two coats is more than enough.
Happily" is such a beautiful bright blue, but you have to apply 3 coats, in order to bring out the color.
And of course, could not leave behind "Diana" as it can turn a boring mani into an exciting and glamorous one!
You can also see in the pictures above that I applied "Not Afraid" glitter to my accent nail, which definitely changed the look. By the way, I would like to include, that I loved the brush, it makes it so apply to apply the nail polish.
Overall, I loved the nail kit, as it has two bright colors that in a heartbeat could turn your nails into sassy ones, not to mention that the glitter toppings are just excellent too! I love to play with my nails, so I'm all into this!
Next set of products?
Liquilights Glow Gloss kit.
Liquilights Glow Gloss sparkles brilliantly during the day and illuminates under UV black light after dark. Enriched with natural oils and vitamin E to keep your lips soft and hydrated all day and all night.
Gloss can be worn alone for a pop of sparkle and color, or paired with One Direction crème lipstick for a bolder look.
Through the Dark- Electric glitter poppy lip gloss that glows to neon red-orange under UV light
Kiss You- Orange glitter rush lip gloss that glows to neon yellow under UV light
Taken - Powerhouse glitter pink lip gloss that glows to neon orange under UV light
So, these are so cool because they change colors under UV light. (Unfortunately I wasn't able to try this =( , but it surely sounds fun!)
I loved the texture of these lip glosses, even though they're full of glitter, they went on my lips so smoothly!
Finally, the last products I received were a set of Electro Glam Mascara.
Why don’t we go there- Shock of blue
Does he know?- Pinkest hot pink
Story of my life- Amped canary yellow
So, even though this is a product that I never thought I would even try on, I will tell you guys that it was absolutely fun! Personally I did not like applying to my hair, but oh boy, I loved it on my eyelashes!
First of all, these mascaras are so pigmented! I have dark hair, so of course, my eyelashes are really dark, but you can see clearly the bold colors!
Not only did the mascara changed the color of my eyelashes, it also made them look 100% longer!
Though I do not plan on using this colors to go out anytime soon, I will definitely use them to play at home! Haha, I can't be the only one playing with makeup right?
Bottom Right Lash shows the three colors! It was fun!
So, all these amazing products were released November 15, 2014, and can be found at Macy's, Dillards, Boscov's, Stage Stores, Beauty Brand, and Lord & Taylor.

Hi ladies!!! =) So have you all heard of The newly released Limited Edition MakeUp by One Direction? Hmmmm, can I say that you're missing out? So first of all, let me start with saying that this makeup kits come in super cute tins, each featuring the picture of one of the five band members. So, below you can see the kits that I received, featuring Zayn, Harry and Liam (Liam is such a cutie!) lol.
So what's inside the kit? 6 Eyeshadows, 1 Eye crayon, 1 Lip Gloss Top Coat, 4 Lip glosses, and 2 nail polishes, 1 lip gloss and 1 eye shadow applicator.
So, when I first saw them, I thought I was getting little kids's makeup, but to my surprise, that is not the case! The eye shadows are fairly pigmented, and the colors are just so pretty! My favorite is "Same Mistakes" which is the minty color. Don't get me wrong, the other ones are absolutely cute as well! Eye Shadows: Nobody Compares- Metallic silver Tell Me A Lie- Metallic nude pink Same Mistakes- Metallic mint I Would- Smokey brown shimmer Summer Love- Smokey purple haze Everything About You- Smokey black shimmer
Picture below shows the colors listed, from top to bottom.
Eye Pencil: I Want- True matte black So, I used the eye crayon and it's actually pretty good compared to the low quality and disappointments I have gotten from some eye liners from well know companies. So, overall I liked the eye crayon. Be aware that it will smudge a little.
Lip Gloss: Loved You First- Bubble gum pink One Thing- Frosted pink ice Irresistible- Shimmered pearl Heart Attack- Creamy rose shine I loved, loved, loved the lip glosses! The colors are just fabulous and not to mention that the quality is just great! It's not sticky at all, it's just perfect!
This is actually "One Thing" (My apologies, I did not put the correct label)
Lip Gloss Top Coat: Over Again- Silver glitter sparkle
I wore the lip gloss top coat by itself on this picture.
Nail Varnish: Stole My Heart- Magenta pink shimmer Alive- Multi-coloured glitter flakes
I do apologize in advance, as I did not completely remove the gold tone nail polish I had on my index finger.
I wanted to show you guys a picture of the inside of the tin as I think it's a very sweet detail.
I also created a quick video, feel free to press play =)
Overall, I honestly loved everything about this makeup kit, and I'm more than impressed with the quality! I would definitely recommend it to anyone. So, this holiday you know what to get that family or friend that's a big fan of One Direction! This would be a memorable gift!

So, I recently received Kiss InstaWave Automatic Curler to review, and I cannot begin to tell you how much I truly love this curler!
At first I was scared because in the past I burned myself using a curling wand, but this was not the case, not even close!
If you would like to see a video of how to use it, please click the link; I don't usually post videos, but I wanted to try it lol Oh boy! That was quite a task for me! lol http://youtu.be/jwzZEUcDHes
So what are some of the things you need to know about this curler? Well, to begin with, it's awesome, literally!
- It has two heat settings
Low - which helps you achieve looser curles High - which helps you achieve tigher curles
- Good for use on ALL hair types, but personally I would recommend to use if you have straight or wavy hair.
- It's tangle free, which means that IF for any reason your hair gets caught on the curler, all you have to do is switch direction button and pull curler down. (e.g. you were pressing right button, and hair gets caught, then press left button and pull down).
- Auto Shutoff I don't know if it has ever happened to you guys, but I know it's happened to me for sure, where I have left styling products on, and when I come back home after work, it's still on! Well, that will NOT be the case with this curler. So, if you forget to turn it off before leaving your place, don't worry, it will turn off for you after 90 minutes! I absolutely love this feature!
- It has ceramic Ionic technoly, which helps reduce frizz and damage.
- Max temperature is 420 F which helps lock curls!
- Did i mention that it has a curl dial with left & right directions?
- And of course, it's super easy for anyone to use, from any angle and with any hand! You will see in my video how easy it's to use it!
Below are the super easy to follow steps on how to use it!
Hold InstaWave vertically
Simply place section of hair on the InstaWave curling rod
Touch the Curl Dial either left or right, and the InstaWave instantly and automatically catches and curls the hair
Hold for 5-10 seconds, hold longer for tighter curls and less for beachy waves
Pull the InstaWave down vertically, letting hair out
**Tip: Switch between curling right and curling left to create the most natural looking curls
So, where can you find this awesome curler?
Well, in the U.S. you can find them at Target, Ulta and Amazon.com ; Retails for $59.99 trust me, it's worth it!
For more information please visit KISSInstaWave.com
This is how my curls came out! -=)
That’s all for today guys! Go get your curler, you’ll love it!
I have always tried my best to take care of my face, so I am always looking for products to use during the day, and at night. My daily routine is to use face moisturizer in the morning, and night repairing cream before going to bed. So of course, every time I go to Marshalls, TJ Max, Ross or Burlington, I always go to the beauty section to check what they have. Trust me, I wish I purchased something every time I go, but I only have one face to try products on lol.
Anyway, I found this night repairing cream at Marshalls a few months ago, and decided to give it a try. By now the bottle is almost empty, I think I have used it for almost a year, because a very small amount is more than enough. Overall, I think the product is just "OK", I was not too thrilled about it. (I am using the whole bottle, so I don't feel like I threw away my money).
The reason I gave it just an "OK", is because the cream is very thick and sticky. I have bangs, so every morning, I wake up with my bangs looking "extra greasy" (yuck), but it's because of the cream. Besides that, the lotion has a weird smell to it, honestly not my favorite, but I deal with it. It smells like cheap cooking oil. Though, I will tell you, that every morning my face feels and looks so soft! (like a baby's butt) haha! Now, I'm not saying that this product is not good, I'm just saying it's not my favorite, and I would not purchase it again. Ha! I have sensitive skin and the first two to three times I used the cream, it made my face red, but I continued using it, and I guess my face got used it. I wanted to mention this, because I read from others that they had an allergic reaction to it. Well, so did I, but after using it a few times, my skin doesn't quit so fast haha!
Would I recommend it to a friend? Sure, if he/she has DRY skin. If you have oily skin, I truly would NOT recommend this product. Overall, this is an "OK" night repairing cream. I will start using 40 Carrots/Carrot + Acai Sleep Cream, and see how that one goes. Thanks for reading! xoxo Sarai,
So, I have been using Elf's Makeup Mist and Set for about 2-3 months now. Though I really like makeup, I am no where near being an MUA lol, but I truly want/need to learn more. I need to start with a makeup 101 class haha!
So, when I initially saw this product at Burlington, I wasn't sure what it was for, but still decided to purchase it (#shopaholicproblems) :)
But the past few months, I have been more into wearing makeup and decided to start using the mist, and OMG I really like it! It makes my makeup last much longer than if I were to wear it on its own.
I just spray it about 8 inches away from my face and it dries off within seconds. It doesn't make my face feel sticky, and it doesn't have any odor either.
When I wasn't using the makeup set & mist, my makeup would last just a few hours, but I thought it was normal lol
And if you wonder, this product has not given me any acne or skin problems at all!
I purchased mine at Burlington as mentioned before, and it only cost me around $3.99, but I have also seen them at Target.
I recently got to try Tazo's Chai Tea and lattes and oh my!
My favorite for sure was the Chai Latte Concentrate. As the box below shows, it has cinnamon, cardamom, vanilla, and ginger flavor. I personally had never tried something like this before, the ginger flavor is pretty strong, but I think that's what makes this latte so different.
So what you do is, you take half of the latte concentrate and you mix it with half milk. You don't need to add sugar as its already sweetened. You can either drink it over ice (cold) or heat it up on the stove or microwave. I prefer hot drinks, so that's how I have mines.
See pictures below for nutrition facts. I actually just noticed that half a cup has 16 g of sugar and 70 calories (plus milk)! That's tons of sugar, no wonder it's so sweet! :( but it tastes so good, so that makes me feel better lol.
They had chai lattes in other flavors as well. See pictures below for more information.
You can also find their bags of chai tea in so many different flavors. I also got the chocolate chai and the vanilla caramel. Honestly I wasn't too impressed with the vanilla caramel. The one that truly impressed me was the Chai Latte as it has that strong flavor to it.
Price? You can find them at Publix for $3.99 - boxed tea bags as well as the concentrate lattes.
Thankfully I received mines for free from Smiley360 for testing purposes. :)
I have been using this mascara for several months now. The first time I used it, I wanted to immediately throw it away lol... That's because my eyelashes didn't look any different after applying the mascara.
Well, I decided to still keep it as I don't like to throw away money like that, and I kept using my old mascara. Well, a few weeks after I decided to give Avon's mascara another try, but this time I decided to apply several coats instead of just one or two.
Well well well!!!! That made the difference :) after that, you would guess that I continued using the mascara, and it's almost running out now :( but I won't purchase another one because I still have another Avon mascara that is still sealed. Let's see how that one goes!
Anyway, I truly like this mascara and I'm so glad that I did not throw it away. It works wonderfully, does not clump, and lasts all day... IF you apply at around 3-4 coats!
I can't recall the price, but i purchased it when it was on sale for $5 or less.
See you all later! ;)*
Xoxo
