Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves Curl Defining Hair Cream

I recently had the pleasure of trying Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves haircreme. Check out Kinky Moves and the rest of the Not Your Mother's line at NYMBrands.com

First i have to say this product has a great but not overpowering scent. It really did help to control my curl while keeping my frizz to a minimum which is awesome! I would recommend it to anyone that needs a little help to control their curls whild keeping it soft and frizz free.

While i loved the product i have extremely thick and coarse hair so i have to use too much product to achieve my desired look. So while i probably will buy again to use it will not be replacing my everyday products. But check them out, they truely do have awesome products for a great price!

Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit

I had a chance to try to Kiss EverPRO Lashes thanks to my Beauty VoxBox from Influenster.

I LOVE that these came with a applicator, It really helped me to apply these! I have found these from around $4.99 and the kit contains lashes, adhesive & applicater. I got these on easy and they stayed put all night! Below are just the facts!

Made from highest quality human hair. Use with Kiss adhesive for optimal results. Latex free, odor free, waterproof, flexible formula for 24hr hold, easy applicator.

Bath & Body Works Fall Mini Candle

I recently was selected to receive a beauty blogger box from Influenster One of the great products i recieved was from one of my favorite retailers, Bath and Body Works!!

The mini candle in my voxbox was the Mahogany Teakwood scent. Let me say yumm! It smells so good and so like every man should! lol This candle burns very cleanly and the scent filled the room nicely.

I will give this candle a 8 out of 10. It does not replace my regular candle brand BUT this candle is so much easier to find and comes in such a array of fragrances that I still highly recommend them! If you havent tried them, DO IT you will not regret!

Mini Candle $3.50; Small Candle $9.50; Medium Candle $12.50; 3-Wick Candle $19.50

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen

I LOVE Hawaiian Tropics! Let me admit I have been a Hawaiian Tropics user for awhile now, first I tried the Creme lotion then the shimmer lotion and both were great at protection. But this silk hydration lotion is my new favorite, I recently took it for a weekend at the island. Great news is a didn't burn at all and even better my skin is so SILKY & hydrated! Can you say Awesome!

NYC New York Color

I recently got the chance to try New York Color's liquid lip shine in nude York city. First let me say this is a beautiful nude color with great shimmer and shine. If you like glossy lip glosses this is for you! I myself have extremely dry lips so this didn't quite win me over in the quench department but I did have lots of great complements in the color, works great with a smokey eye look!

imPRESS Press On Manicure

I got another sample of the imPress manicure thanks to Influenster. I still love how easy the are to apply and they look really great for a occasion.

The many uses of Ivory

I recently recieved a ivory bar soap in my Mom Vox box from Influenster. I have to honestly say I don't know why I stopped using this soap. I started using my ivory bar soap as my face soap for the reasons listed below *Ivory is 99.44% pure *A 10pk retails around $4.49 (I mean WOW!) *Ivory does not clog my pores or dry out my face! It is a great value and a great product!

Quaker Soft Baked Oatmeal Cookies

I recently had the pleasure of trying the new Quaker soft baked oatmeal cookie courtesy of Quaker and influenster. I loved how soft & chewy theses actually are, very close to homemade! What makes Quaker cookies different?   -Made with Whole Grain Quaker Oats -Individually packaged -Provides a good source of fiber -Contains 6 grams of total fat per serving -Retail for $2.69 for 6ct box I would highly recommend these, absolutely Delish!

concrete minerals

Well there is a awesome new (to me) eye shadow that I've noticed called concrete minerals. Has anyone tried it yet? I'm undecided still on the colors I want and a little strapped for cash so I've been putting off buying new makeup, especially since I still have so much of the Milani I recieved. BUT I just saw that concrete minerals is having a giveaway! Yep one winner will get a $50 concrete mineral gift certificate and a petal cove jewelry set! Enter today HERE!

Milani Powder Palette - Abstract

Milani im in love! I've always considered myself a neutral eye with a pop of color on the lid (LOVE LOVE LOVE COLOR) But you have got me reconsidering my choices with this palette. I love that it is a nude look with just the right amount of shimmer to it. AND as always (well, since i tried it) the Eye tech extreme liquid liner has me hooked, never have i been able to do thick, thin and winged eye looks so easily! Please promise to NEVER discontinue it! Eye look done with Milani Powder Eyeshadow Palette in Abstract Eye Tech Extreme liquid liner.

Milani Runways Shadow - Complementary

Milani Runway Strips

I LOVE this eyeshadow! I know everyone here has gone out and bought a beautiful eyeshadow before just to find out you can not get the color to appear as it looks once you put it on. Not here, Milani's is super pigmented so there is no struggling with getting color to show (my worst nightmare)Eye Looks done with MilaniRunway Eyes Fashion Shadows

imPRESS Press-on Manicure

Recently i got the priviledge of receiving a holiday VoxBox from Influenster.com filled with fun new products that i got to try.

One of my favorites was the ImPRESS Press on Manicure Set. I (working retail) got to see these recently as they are new and had been wanting to try them. Well the part I really like and that set these apart from the rest is that the glue is already on the nail! The bad side i can tell right now is that they only seem to be available in one length, which is pretty short but hopefully they will come out with different lenghts soon! I loved that these stayed on the ENTIRE weekend and the color choices and designs that are available. Try them today!
