"I simply remember my favorite things..."


Hey Guys!

I wanted to tell you guys about my three favorite products at the moment! I am loving these three products right now and I have been using them everyday. The three products that I am loving right now are:

1.) "Clinique Acne Solutions foundation"
2.)"Sonia Kashuk" stippling brush
3.) "Covergirl Lash Blast fusion"
My review:

1.) For prom I needed to get a new foundation that would provide me with full coverage and that I could use all the time and not for just one night. I have light to medium acne on my forehead and I have been trying to keep it under control. I am looking to get rid of my acne scars and so I was considering getting the "Clinique even better foundation" but the woman at the Clinique counter let me know that only when used with the rest of the "even better" line will the foundation work to clear scars. The woman then let me know that the "Acne Solutions" foundation would help to clear my skin and provide me with medium to full coverage without clogging my pores. I have fallen in love with this product and I can use it everyday without it breaking me out. I can honestly say that it monitors my acne and I have had a lot less, but it does not eliminate it. To get a nice smooth finish I use...

2.) My stippling brush! I have wanted a stippling brush for a while now and since I can't afford the one from M.A.C. I decided to try the Sonia Kashuk one because I heard great things about it and I like her other brushes. This brush is great to provide that airbrushed looked that looks so flawless.

3.) "Lash Blast Fusion" PERFECTION! "Lash Blast original" length plus amazing volume. Pure perfection! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!

Love ya guys!

Benefit Cosmetics "Brows a-go-go"



Hey guys!!

Something that is new to me that I have gotten really into is filling in my eyebrows. I never even thought about filling in my brows but a lot of magazines have been talking about it recently so I thought that I would give it a try. I went to "CVS" and I bought a two pack of "L'Oreal" brow pencils that comes with a dark brown/black pencil and a light brown pencil. I found that this duo was a little too dark for me and made my eyebrows look really harsh.

I have always LOVED Benefit Cosmetics and I thought that their "Brows a-go-go" kit would be great for me. The kit comes with two brow powders, a brow wax, mini tweezers, highlighting cream, highlighting powder,a precision double headed brush, and a mini black eyeliner. This kit is FULL of goodies and is still compact enough to carry around in your purse. Everything you need for perfect brows is in this kit. The kit also comes with a step by step guide, and for someone who is new to filling in their brows the guide makes it SO SIMPLE!
(not to mention, the packaging is TO DIE FOR!!)

The colors, along with the wax, make my eyebrows look natural and perfectly groomed and really just make my make-up look complete. I would HIGHLY recommend this product! You can get the kit at any Benefit Cosmetics store or online at www.benefitcosmetics.com the kit retails for $38.
