Skin Care

Skin Care Products
Photobucket

My two favorite skin care products would include: Neutrogena's pore cleanser/mask. Could be used as both a face wash and a 15 minute mask. It has 10% Benzoyl Peroxide, which helps kill the bacteria on the surface of the skin. Leaves a refreshing tingling feeling on the skin as well. However, for people that tend to have dry skin, I would not recommend this product for you. It will dry the skin abit. Best used for oily and combination skin. Usually runs around $8.00 or less at Wal-Mart. Expensive, but worth it. Not to use everyday. Maybe every other day to every 3 days.
Another product would include the Apricot Scrub. This is an amazing product for cleaning dead skin cells off the surface of the skin. It also cleans the dirt from your pores, leaving a baby soft feel to touch. This product is also amazing at shrinking the pores. Great exfoliant. Usually runs around $3-$6 dollars at Wal-Mart.

Barry M Dazzle Dusts

Barry M Dazzle Dust Review

The smooth texture of Barry M dazzle dust and pigmented colors should be on every woman's wishlist. Every single one of them are infused with glitter. Great to wear both dry and wet. I plan on doing several tutorials with these little gems. The only thing that I don't like about them is the labelless colors. Their website will show their titles, but on the actually jar it only displays the number. For more information on these eyeshadows visit www.barrym.com
They sell in the U.K. and are not available in the United States. They do deliver to the U.S. through their website. Each dazzle dust usually runs $4.50. I highly recommend these if you want a soft pretty sparkle to your everyday look, or great for nights at the club.

Merry Christmas Ladies!

I recieved a small haul for Christmas that I was super excited about. Let me show you what I got that any lady can afford on a budget.

Coastal Scents Palettes:

The perfect gift for you or your teenage daughter, whom are just starting out in makeup. Both palettes come in 88 different colors. Left side: Shimmering Colors, Right Side: Matte Colors. These palettes are very inexpensive and very pigmented for what you get. The Matte Palette runs $21.95 and the Shimmering Palette runs $24.95.

L'Oreal Double Extend Mascara and Primer
Photobucket

This product gives 60% visibly larger lashes. Number 515 Black Brown.Cost usually under $9.00 at Wal-Mart. Highly recommend L'Oreal mascara. I've been a voluminous girl for over a year. I wanted to try a L'Oreal mascara with a primer. If you have considerably long lashes, it will make you look like you have falsies on.

Small Chirstmas Haul
Photobucket

Lip Smackers in strawberry and cotton candy. This brand of lipgloss is my favorite for a cheap beautiful tint of shine. Usually runs less than $3.00 at Wal-Mart. Not recommended if you want something to last all day. A product you will have to take with you to the party or to work to re-apply. My go to blush by covergirl. My favorite color is Classic Pink. Pretty pigmented and usually runs about $4.00 at Wal-Mart. As well as a free gift from coastal scents. A black velvet eyeliner pencil. I will soon post my response on this product.
