Love this from L'Oreal!

The lotion has a nice texture that’s rich but not too creamy and actually has a little bit of super subtle shimmer in it. It helps give me a radiance that really counts on days where makeup is minimal. The Skin Genesis is a multi-layer Cell Strengthening skincare line for preventative purposes. Marketed to those around 30 (that’s me!), Skin Genesis is supposed to help firm up the top layers of the skin to help me slow the look of aging.

Love it for Accenting the Eyes!

Since I like the blue liner trend, I use CoverGirl’s new Eye Enhancers 1-Kit Eyeshadow in Turquoise Tempest using a small rounded smudge brush. I dampen the brush by spritzing a little water to the bristles before picking up the color with it. It helps to intensify the shade even more and allow you to line the color precisely to the lashline.

This baby works!

Although this comes with a hefty price tag ($995 US), it really works. I did a test patch on my friend's leg and after only 2 sessions, there's no more hair growth in the treated area! Afterwards, I zapped my underarms - and while that area hurts a little bit when you laser it, the idea of no more shaving is well worth it!

Holy Sparkle, Batman!

These babies give a super fierce sparkle to your pout, and although some might argue that the glitter is too chunky, I definitely think there’s always a time and a place for this high-wattage shimmer. Glamour OD, a kind of scary bright corally pink shade in the tube, applies on as a sheer, brighter pink with gorgeous flashes of that dazzly shimmer that’s really starting to grow on me.

Go for Gold!

Golden Sunset eye shadow trio has three pretty shades of golden copper and bronze. I love that these are pretty pigmented and silkier than what you’d imagine from a mass beauty brand. For super quick gold look, wear the darkest shade at the lash line and fan out the color using the middle gold shade in the crease. Finally highlight with the lightest color.

I want long lashes too!

I've been using this inconsistently for the past few weeks so I haven't noticed any length of fullness yet but have noticed that my lashes are stronger than before. When I curl my lashes, none fall out where as before I'd always accidentally pluck out one or two. I'm going to use this for a few more weeks to see what happens!

Drab to Fab with L'Oreal Feria

If you’ve used Feria in the past like I have, know that it’s all the same gorgeous multi-faceted colors but the formulas are totally revamped. I threw a hair dying party and here's what we loved about it. - It’s got a new applicator tip that made it really easy for me to apply the color where I wanted it - New Feria formula is thicker, non-drippy, which is good for me since I tend to make a mess most places I go - It comes with a new aromatic shimmer serum in an ampule making at-home hair dying bearable. Imagine the smell lingering from dying 4 girls’ hair! You’d be lucky to keep all your nose hairs if it weren’t for this.

Aussie says Opposites Attract Shampoo

I always use drugstore brands for my hair because it’s inexpensive and, honestly, because I can’t really tell how products work on my mane. I have fine hair that needs minimal attention because I’m just not that savvy when it comes to styling and have pretty much given up on trying - LOL. With that said, all I need is something that makes my hair look and feel soft, is manageable and affordable. Aussie’s Opposites Attract Shampoo smells deliciously luscious and tropical and for $3 bucks a pop, I really can’t ask for anything more! I’ve noticed that I use significantly less product with Opposites Attract versus other shampoos and conditioners I’ve used in the past. And… with this product, I don’t need conditioner! That’s a completely foreign concept to me. Just the shampoo leaves my looks clean, shiny, and best of all, untangled!

Get Radiant with Shu Uemura Brightening Oil

Like their other cleansing oils, this is a dual product - a makeup remover and cleanser in one. What could be better than a two for one?? I’ve using the High Performance Balancing Cleansing Oil, Enriched and I love how well it works so I’m sure that the Brightening Oil will not disappoint. Radiant, gorgeous skin - here I come!

Get Some Air with Bliss Triple Oxygen Mask

I just started using it and I have to say, it’s one of the more enjoyable products I’ve tested in recent months. Start with clean, damp skin and massage about 3 pumps of the Triple Oxygen Mask on your face. A little bit of the product will go a long way. Almost instantly you’ll notice that the creamy gel texture you started with will begin to foam up once it hits water. For me, I gently massaged the mask into my skin for about a minute and then let it foam up and fizzle out before rinsing. The waiting period is the fun part. My face actually feels like it’s transforming because the foam is fizzy and tingly on the skin. After the rinse, my skin does feel a little taut but it’s nothing that a little night moisturizer can’t cure - you can use this in the morning too but my AM routine just doesn’t have the time for it. Overall, I’m not really noticing a huge difference in the appearance of my skin as far as younger-looking or glowing other than my face always looks refreshed after I wash it anyway. I’ll definitely give it a few more tries over the next few weeks to see what kind of results I’ll see.
