Drugstore Product Of The Week: Jergens BB Body Perfecting Cream!


I have to be honest, when I first saw this Jergens BB perfecting skin cream I was very skeptical. I have had the chance to try a lot of BB creams for the face but never one for the body. This product is really great, from the first time I used it I could immediately feel a difference in my skin. My skin is VERY dry and this cream made my skin look hydrated and soft. My skin looked more radiant and even toned.  

La verdad es que estaba muy resistente a tratar esta crema de Jergens, una que supuestamente al igual que las BB cremas para la cara ofrece tantos beneficios. Al tratarla confirme que efectivamente es bien buena. Inmediatamente pude notar una diferencia en la suavidad de mi piel y lucia mucho mas radiante.

The Five Benefits Of Jergens BB Body Perfecting Cream// Los Cinco Beneficios De Jergens:
  1. Hydrate/ Hidrata
  2. Illuminate/ Ilumina
  3. Even/ Empareja 
  4. Firm/ Tonifica
  5. Correct/ Correciona
The creams come for all light skin tones and for all medium deep tones, I made a mistake and purchased the one for light skin tones. I will use it all and then buy the one for deep skin tones and see if I see any difference. Have you tried this product? 

La cremas viene en dos opciones una para pieles blancas y otra para pieles oscuras. Cometi el error de no fijarme bien y compre la de pieles blancas pero la verdad no se que me estoy perdiendo. Voy a terminarla y luego compro la de pieles oscuras a ver si not un cambio.....Ustedes que opinan, van a tratar este producto?

Good Luck/ Buenas Suerte! Xxx

Illamasqua Reflection Palette!

I have been waiting in reviewing this palette because I wanted to do a look with it and give you a better visual of the beautiful colors but I'm currently growing out my brows after I accidentally waxed a whole piece of it off (hint: I look cray cray). I love this cream eyeshadow palette, the colors are beautiful wearable and long lasting. The consistency is amaizing so creamy and smooth. I can't wait to play around with this palette some more! 

Eh estado esperando para darles la revisión de esta paleta, porque yo quería hacer un look con él y darles una mejor visual de los hermosos colores, pero yo actualmente estoy dejando crecer la cejas (Pista: Me miro como loca). Me encanta esta paleta de sombra de ojos crema, los colores son hermosos portátil y duradero. La consistencia es increíble muy cremoso y suave. No puedo esperar para jugar con esta paleta un poco más!

Product Rave/Product Del Delirio: Sonia Kashuk Undetectable Cream Bronzer!


I want to share this review for the Sonia Kashuk undetectable cream bronzer. I'm seriously obsessed with this cream bronzer since I purchased it three weeks ago. 

Quiero compartir este examen de la Sonia Kashuk crema bronceador indetectable. Estoy muy obsesionado con esta crema bronceador desde que lo compré hace tres semanas.

 A great cheap alternative to Chanel's Soleil Universal Cream bronzer and it works better for people who have a medium to tan skin tones better. This cream bronzer is sooooo creamy and blends like a dream. I like to use it over my foundation to contour and then set it with a powder bronzer for longevity.

Una gran alternativa barata a Chanel de bronzer Soleil Crema Universal y funciona mejor para las personas que tienen un medio de tonos de piel bronceado mejor. Esta crema es taaaaan bronzer cremoso y mezclas como un sueño. Me gusta a mi fundación de contorno y, a continuación, colocarlo con un polvo bronceador para la longevidad.

It comes in two shades warm tan and rich bronze, I purchased the darkest of the two which is the rich bronze. 

Viene en dos tonos cálidos y ricos de bronce, he comprado el más oscuro de los dos, que es el rich bronze.

It's very pigmented yet blends out to a more sheer yet even consistence color. I love to use it as a contour cream as is really natural looking and less harsh then most contouring powders. It sets into a silky smooth finish not sticky or "wet" like other cream bronzers. I have been using my real techniques expert face brush which is best for cream/liquid products and the hairs are so tight and packed together so it blends better.

Es muy pigmentadas y un más elevado aún consistencia color. Me encanta que los utilizan como crema contorno como es realmente natural y menos dura, la mayoría de los polvos. Se establece en un suave como la seda no pegajosa o "mojado" como otros crema  bronceadores.

Overall I really love this awesome product and highly recommend it. I did all the usual testing I do before I review a product and this product delivers. I used it on my clients with different skin tones and types and they all loved their contouring.

En general, me encanta este producto increíble y lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Yo hice la habitual de pruebas hacer antes un producto y revisión este producto ofrece. la eh utilizado en mis clientes con diferentes tipos y tonos de piel y todos les encantó su contorno.

Price Paid: $11

My Top 5 MAC Blushers/ Mis 5 Coloretes Favoritos De MAC!

 
Left To Right/ Izquierda A Derecha: The Perfect Cheek (Marilyn Monroe Collection), Blushbaby, Melba, Peaches, Hot  planet (limited)
 Its no secret I love blushers, its the first makeup item I always go to in the makeup counters and if I had to pick just one item to use for the rest of my life it would be without a doubt a blush. I love the effect it gives, it contours, brightens and just makes you look so sexy and put together. I do own a lot of blushers and from all brands, but some of my favorite are definitely from MAC, and picking just five from all the ones I own was not an easy task but here they are! 

No es ningún secreto, definitivamente mi producto de maquillaje favorito es el colorete. Me encanta y si tuviese que vivir el resto de mi vida con un solo producto de maquilla escogería un buen colorete! Me encanta la manera en la cual me ilumina mi cara, me hace ver mas despierta, y le da un contorno a my rostro. Honestamente tengo mas coloretes en mi colección que se me hace casi imposible solo elegir uno como mi favorito, pero de todas las marcas MAC hace uno de mis favoritos. Aquí les tengo mis 5 favoritos de MAC!

The Lotion That Keeps On Giving!


 It's not everyday day I give with the intention of receiving anything back, but that's exactly what happened when I first purchased Lush's charity pot. This lotion is no joke it is made with organic cocoa butter which is amazing at hydrating, and evening out your skin and its tone. I do use this at night  as the smell can be a little to much to wear with my perfumes, I do love the smell thought it smells like chocolate covered strawberries (yummy).  Lush promises that all the money excluding tax will go to grassroots charities which makes this an even more special lotion. So next time you are in a lush store check this lotion out and hopefully you love it as much as I do! Good Luck Xxx

Purchase: LUSH
Price: $22.95

Drugstore Find: Revlon Photoready Cream Blush




I love me some blush, its amazing to see how just the right amount of blush can change your whole look! Originally introduced in the Revlon Gucci Westman Escapism Collection, the Photo Ready Cream Blushes are a new addition to the Photo Ready family of products and are not limited edition. So if you haven't spotted the Escapism display in your area, don't worry. These should eventually make their way to the permanent wall display.

Typically, cream blushes have been known to be thick, super-emollient and best suited for dry skin ladies- however this new formulation is quite different. While the cream blush itself is boldly pigmented and vibrant in the pot, it goes on quite sheer with a light-as-air texture. So it was perfect for my oily skin.

The Most toned down Pinched, its a peach with shimmer. I use this most as a base for powder blush since this hardly shows on my cheeks. But it is a very beautiful color that I think would look great on any skin tone.

Coral Reef looked the most intimidating color, since it's pretty much neon. But when applied, the color sheers down to a nice, coral color that is natural looking, but screams Summer! I really love this color.


Flushed, is a bright fuchsia and it looks beautiful and natural on the skin (while still being noticeable).



The cream itself is quite hard, almost like a solid lip balm… I’m actually a huge fan of this, because it makes applying it much more fool-proof (you don’t have to worry about over applying, as it usually requires some building to achieve noticeable color). To apply it, I’ve been using just a plain blush brush or my fingers. I find that it really applies just like a powder, and it blends just as easily. And because it’s so light it doesn’t feel like you’re wearing anything at all.

It stayed on my skin until I removed my makeup but, If you want to really extend the wear, try adding a powder blush on top of the cream.

Price: $12.99
I purchased mine at CVS on sale buy one get the second half off!

Good Luck! Xxx

August Birchbox!


August Birchbox was a "back to school" supply kit ... well at least thats what the booklet read. I personally liked every single one of them, but don't know how any of these go with the back to school theme, I was just hoping for more "take with you to school" products like lipgloss and or hand cream versus foot cream! Well anyways heres what I got...

Sabbon/ Foot Cream: This refreshing aloe-based lotion will counteract the hours you spend in high heels. Full Size $18.
  • I absolutely LOVED this foot cream it is very rich and smells yummy! like the directions read do apply at bedtime, I like to do this and wear socks and in the morning my feet are as soft as a babys bum! 
Talika/ Lipocils expert: This plant-derived lash serum spurs growth without any side effects. Full Size, $55

  • I will be honest as I have not tried this product yet.. I am currently avoiding trying anything new around my eyes since suffering from an allergic reaction a few weeks ago. I can't wear contacts until I see my eye doctor in September... same reason why no new video tutorials :( As soon as I try I will review!
Bonus: Schick Hydro Silk Razor!

Juicy Couture/ Viva La Juicy La Fleur: This modern scent is a feminine blend of wild berries, mandarin, and waterlily. Full Size, $70

Miss Jessies's Original/ Curly Meringue: Work this cream through damp hair for bouncy, smooth curls that stay frizz-free all day. Full Size, $22

  • Oh I really, REALLy like this! My hair a combination of straight, wavy and curly, I know very confusing! It all depends on my hairs mood that day but I used this in my freshly washed hair and let it air dry and my hair looked awesome! I will definetly be buying this for those days when I want to rock my natural curls without the use of heat.
Miss Jessie's Original/ Creme de la creme conditioner: This detangling formula works to soften and hydrate all types of hair. Full-size, $16
  • Well this claims to be the best darn conditions period! I'm not sure about that, it felt nice and my hair quickly became soft and easy to detangle but still too soon too little to say anything else! I will purchase the full bottle and give it a try! 
Good Luck< Xxx

Review Time: Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo Eyeshadow!

  I was strolling around Walmart when I came across these eyeshadows. What caught my eyes at first was the packaging, and so I decided to pick up two out of the three colors they had available, and boy am I glad I did!! I went home and played around with the them a little but it wasn't until I decided to really give them a try and wore (pomegranate punk) alone with no other eye makeup and spent the day running around, I even cleaned my kitchen! and at the end of the night.... absolutely PERFECT, no creasing, no running and no fading! I was so happy that I went out the next day in search of the other 8 shades. I am so happy with this purchase, they are by far the best drugstore makeup I have bought in a LONG time. I cant recommend these enough.

Pros:

  • Great staying power. I wore these alone, no primer or powder on top and they did not move at all. 
  • Versatile you can use them as a base for your powder e/s or alone.
  • Price!! Less then $10 and you could even get them cheaper if you get coupons!
  • Great Packaging
  • A lot of color Options
  • Very Pigmented, the colors go on true to what they look like on the pot. 
Cons:
  • NONE!!!



 From Left To Right:
Tough As Taupe
Fierce & Tangy
Painted Purple
Too Cool
Tenacious Teal
Audacious Asphalt

From Left To Right:
Bold Gold
Pomegranate Punk
Edgy Emerald
Bad To The Bronze

Please note that I give every product the chance to work, I would never give a product a review without trying the product a few times... With that being said, I LOVE THESE!!! Good Luck Xxx
