Vidal Sassoon Pro Series-Repair mask & Mousse



Helloooo everyone I know I haven't blogged in a bit I have been taking a break from my blog I do apologize. I have some new products I'll be reviewing and posting soon. Anywaysssss I was shopping at one of my favorite stores Target of course ;-) when I stumbled upon a section of Vidal Sassoon products. I was super excited and they are a reasonable price so of course I had to try something lol.

I purchased the Repair One Minute Mask and the Extra Hold Mousse. I wanted to try the mask first and have been using it for a few days now and I have been liking it so far I love that it isn't greasy it washes out nicely and also leaves my ends smooth and silky. I leave it on for a minute then use wide tooth comb or my fingers and rinse it out. It also smells AMAZINGGGG my husband likes the smell too lol. When my hair was finally dried that's when I noticed the difference in the texture and how my hair looked. Its shiny and soft. Since I do have color treated hair this definitely does the trick. Is it my favorite product? kinda hard to tell since I am still in LOVE with the As I am Coconut CoWash cleansing conditioner but So far I am happy with this product and would recommend it!

As for the mousse I love the smell and the way it enhances my curls. It also adds great volume and hold. I have always used Sammy curls mousse but wanted to try this to change things up a bit. I can say that I would try this mousse again as it does add a nice shine as well and fights against humidity. Like I mentioned the hold is excellent in this product I feel like I could use this and my hair will last all night. Both of these products are pretty good and were only $3.24 USD plus tax not bad for salon inspired products! :D

Wet n Wild Fergie Centerstage Collection- Lipstick



My thoughts?

Loving this lipstick Fergie signed with Wet n Wild around last year when she came out with some nail polishes. Now with a new year comes new products and these matte lipsticks are great! The colors are super pigmented from pinks and wines to nudes this is by far my favorite. It's called Fergie Daily a nude shade that can be used with a smokey eye or even with a simple everyday look. I would recommend this lipstick and checking out the rest of this collection ;-)

New Rimmel Scandaleyes Eye Shadow Stick

My thoughts?

Obsessed with this crayon lol I purchased this eye shadow stick last week and I have been using it just about everyday. The color  is 003 Bad Girl Bronze it is 24 hour and waterproof. They have 2 other colors as well which I will be purchasing lol

 I have tested it out without a primer and it's very pigmented applies smoothlyy and does not crease. I used it with a primer and it had the same affect it stayed put. I also like the fact that I can smudge it and create a smokey eye, I also experimented by putting an eyeshadow on top to make the color pop even more. Overall I would recommend this eyeshadow stick to y'all divas the color is fab! the staying power is great and it's pretty much waterproof until I use an oil based makeup remover. So go get it and tell me what you think ;-)

Wet n Wild New Mega Last Liquid Lip Color


My Thoughts?

Sooo ladies I purchased these lip colors yesterday Wet n Wild has just came out with some new products for 2013 they have a variety of new makeup. From foundations to powders new shades of lipsticks to the Fergie line they have a good selection to experiment with.  The colors I purchased from left to right I can bare it, High-pitched wine, and Back to the Fuchsia.

I must say these liquid lip colors hold true to the word "mega last" when applied it starts to dry and it's like a tattoo on your lips. I swatched in on my hand and it immediately started to dry I washed my hands and I still couldn't get it off so the did a great job in that aspect. The colors are beautiful and super pigmented however for me personally I am not a fan of this product because of how it feels on my lips. They feel dry (chapped) and sticky at the same time it's weird. I would not purchase these again because of the consistency and how it feels on my lips. What I did do was add a gloss on top and it actually looked nice I am still going to experiment with them and try to give it a second change but until then not a huge fan of these.

Too Faced In Your Dreams palette

My thoughts?

Obsessed with this palette it has wonderful colors that can be used for an everyday look or even a night out! The blushes and shadows are super pigmented I love the fact the palette comes with directions for each look. Not a huge fan of the lip glosses so I could care less about them. I purchased this palette before Christmas at TJ Max for $20 bucks it was on clearance. Not sure why especially if it's Too faced and we all know those palettes are pricey. Needless to say this one was meant to be purchased by me ;-)

The picture on the top left are the blushes from left to right -Wanna play?, Girly show and, You hold the key.

The lip glosses below the blushes from left to right- Give it up, Pink ice, and Heart On.

The first row of eye shadows from left to right Natural Beauty- Silk stockings, La Cage, and Rapture

Second row left to right Feminine Flirty- Pink Peacock, Swings, and Fishnet

Third row left to right Seductively Smokey- Full Moon, Dream on, and Seduce

L'oreal Infallible Lacquer Liner- Blackest black



My thoughts?

So far so good I purchased this liner a few days ago I was using ELF liquid liner but wanted to start using a gel/cream liner so I took a trip to Walgreens. I love L'oreal products and have never had a problem with any of the items I have purchased so this was a great buy. I love the texture and how smooth this product applies on the lid it comes with a brush as shown above in the picture. The brush is pretty good it gives me the perfect cat eye! My liner stayed on all day it does not crease or smudge and it doesn't flake it stays put like it should. So ladies If you are looking for a great cream liner for a great price I would highly recommend this one!

Cynthia Rowley Precision Blending Sponge


My thoughts?

I love this sponge!!

Now I am sure we have all heard about the Beauty Blender sponge but this is the alternative "cheaper" version. I never have been a fan of sponges because the absorb all the makeup so I have always used a brush or even my fingers to apply foundation and concealer. Since I received this sponge as a Christmas gift from my sisters I haven't picked up my brushes. This sponge is multi-functional and gives you an airbrushed look. You can use this sponge to apply your foundation, concealer, primer etc. without absorbing any of the product. The key is to wet the sponge squeeze the excess water and use it when damp. Just "bounce" the sponge with the product on your face, it's that simple! Once you are finished you clean it with warm water and dry it with a towel. I have not used the beauty blender but at the end of the day it gives you the same look but with half the price ;-)

So try it out ladies and tell me what you think!

Color Sensational Vivids review



Color Sensational Vivids by Maybelline

What I think?

I definitely am lover of this new line that Maybelline came out with. Very impressed on the quality and how highly pigmented these colors are. The two colors I purchased were Vivid Rose and Brazen Berry. I tried both on my lips the top one is Vivid Rose and the bottom is Brazen Berry. They have a nice variety of bold colors from pinks to corals and even red! I plan on purchasing them all LOL!

Consistency- These to me are a cream sheen type of lipstick it's moisturizing and gives a nice shine. It reminds me of the Revlon lip stains because the glide on and the color intensity is amazing. I would recommend these colors to my bold divas ;-)

2012 favs and some Christmas gifts!
