More LImited Edition Makeup by One Direction & Giveaway Info



Well, hello there!

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.

Limited Edition Makeup By One Direction

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!

This beautiful Limited Edition One Direction Kits became available November, 15 and can be found at  Kmart, Sears and at Target.

Kiss InstaWave Automatic Curler Review



Hi Guys!!! =)

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!

Yes to Carrots Repairing Night Cream Review



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!

ELF Makeup Mist and Set Review

ELF Makeup Mist & Set Review

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 truly recommend this product to anyone!



Thank you for reading!!!
