OK girls since pretty much I land on the I HATE A SHINNY face pattern

and I fit pretty well , Im always on the lookout for new mattifying products, 

I found my DREAM COME TRUE setting powder which is Laura Mercier 

shine control pressed powder. Ok BUT  now how would I retouch with out packing my face with 20 pounds of powder a day I mean I could because afterall the Laura Mercier powder performs that job to the max, but I dont like to be caking powder over over over IDK I feel its not sanitary, I always carry around the Clean and Clear blotting sheets which work perfect but theyre not quite there, I heard about the MALLY face defender buuuuuuuut I honestly IDK theres was just something that did not attract me to the brand and there were very very few reviews on it. 

I love BENEFIT COSMETICS ! I adore from the cute suuper original packaging to the products itself, yes it is expensive BUT then again you need to look at the overall purchase from the Benefit Boutiques to the boxes and the website everything overall has a lot of <3 and passion put into it. 

So yesterday on my trip I decided to get my eyebrows done at the Benefit Brow Bar and OMG let me tell you ! I LOVED IT !! you so so so gotta go if you have one near you its so so so different from regular salons really !! 

Ok off the rammble back to the review, lol ! I was playing around with the products and I had seen the DR. FEEL GOOD a mattiying balm in a solid form, not ur typical powder ,but I was honestly scared that I was going to look shinny and blah blah blah ! so I tried on my face and got my brows done and walked around and went to the other mall , usually my skin reacts to a product within 2-3 hrs I honestly dont have to wait to see if  product works or not , I usually break out in a snap ! 

As you can see its not blue,minty over all a TRUE translucent mattifying product, so it suits perfectly to a 100%any skin color and type.  Packaging its amazing and super high-quality and fun, its a metal tin with the old school print to it, super fun and girly.

I would use it to set my foundation but I will never ever use any other retouching , mattifyng product for a while !!! I give it a 4 thumbs up lol !! feet count as well

GR8 LASH !!! BY: MAYBELINE ( BIG LASH ) AND ( GR8 LASH REGULAR FORMULA )

WHO WOULDNT LIKE GR8 LASHES !!??

** before anything SORRY for the closeup eye picture ahahaha itss too too funny !! 

This product was purchased by me, in my local Target :D .. price ranges from 3.99 to 5.00 something

The formula for Maybeline Gr8 Lashes is kinda runny and suuuper liquid , its kinda hard to get used to it but in the other hand its a gr8 mascara it just takes a little time to get used to it, I feel it get lashes to stuck to one another but you can always get a toothpick and SUUUPER CAREFULLY separate each lash, the finished product will be amazing. 

this was the result of their new BIG lash mascara which the brush its BIG compared to the regular brush in the classic formula.

this is the result of the classic formula, I honestly like the result on this one better I feel that the BIG just makes it look like you have more lashes not bigger, and the regular formula really extends the lash a lot.

PACIFICA BODY BUTTER

Touring my SEPHORA as usual , I bumped into this cutie called , PACIFICA COCONUT CRUSHED PEARL BODY BUTTER , and here is the story:

So mainly I got this body butter because of its scent and yes its smells pretty amazing. Just for the fact that its pretty hard for me to find a gr8 coconut scent that doesnt give me a headache, and let me tell you this one really impressed my nostrils lol :D.

Honestly I have never even stopped and looked at the PACIFICA booth inside my SEPHORA , not because its unatractive or so but I never make my way allll the waaaay to the back and it so happens that the PACIFICA section is in the last row of products and thee very end of the store. Which I personally think its unfair because the brand does carry some reaalllly yummy scents and really gr8 products. 

Packaging for the entire brand is quite original and very trendy they have that Indie-Boho-Chic vibe to their design with some pretty nice color combos , overall nice to the eye , and to thee nosie :D.

Going back to the actual product review, the consistency of the product its pretty thick and really moisturizing. A little goes a looong waaay , honestly you dont need a wholelot of product & last BUT not least it has a very pleasant scent and looots loots of shimmer and glow. For me its a like a dupe of BENEFIT's HIGH BEAM but in a body butter.

PRODUCT CLAIMS:

The product claims that it is a aluminizing body butter that gives shimmer and glow to the skin , infused with coconut oil , pearls and sea minerals.

I truly believe that the products embodies all its claims to a %100 !! I will recommend the product.

This is a snapshot of the actual product against the light in order to appreciate the amount of actual product you get.

 In this picture the product is being compared to a "regular" body butter , you can see 1. the shimmers, 2. the thickness of the product.

 S-H-I-M-M-E-R-S !!!!! :D 

You can find this product and the Pacifica brand at your local SEPHORA or SEPHORA.COM

I got 2FLOZ for $7.00

ULTA SALE SERIES: BUTTER LONDON ( TOFF )

1ST of all excuse my hurt cuticles but you know it happens once in a while were your skin get mixed up with the cuticle lol ! 

Back to the review , this baby is TOFF from BUTTER LONDON's Fall 2011 collection , this was a freebie from the BOGO FAIL ULTA SALE, that happened days ago, pretty hectic but in the end it was all happiness and success once I had a 8 bottles in my hands and I only payed for 4 lol ! 

TOFF is without a question a FALL COLOR , and it suits every skin color ,type , shape or form to my belief. I see a matching lipstick for this color, but when I see it Ill for sure buy it and take a pic of it. 

TOFF goes hand on hand with any outfit whether you wear black,white,brown or so , TOFF will pull it off. Its a pretty versatile color that looks gr8 on toes as well and a matter fact I feel it brightens your feet a  lot.

I did not owned any BUTTER LONDON polish before, and I did love it , you can DEFF. feel a difference once you try to work it into your nails, but I glides AMAZING and its pigmentation its pretty gr8, I believe you do need a couple of coats in certain colors but nothing that makes it not a gr8 product.

ESSIE LADY LIKE

I got my hands on this LADY because I was seeing everywhere in blogs, youtube etc..

and I honestly didnt think I was gonna love it .. but OMG I was soo soo mistaken, I ADORED it, I've been wearing it on mu nails for 3 days :D so yeah I really like it lol !! .. The product speaks for itself so let your eyes be the judge but not the final decision :D

MY FIRST ZOYA (( MARINA ))

I had never tried ZOYA before, but I've being reading a lot of reviews on ZOYA polishes and I stumbled across some really nice colors, so I went ZOYA shopping.. lol :D

This baby is called MARINA by ZOYA

( note the sky reflected on the bottle :D perfect touch to the beautiful color )

MARINA is a amazing blue-greyish tone, with tiny purple,silver and gold sparkles, this color is amazing for fall time, and I believe it suits any skin tone. Like I mentioned above I had never had the chance to try a ZOYA nail polish IDK why lol. The formulation and consistency of the product is ccreamy BUT not as creamy as Julep. It still glides on nicely. The brush is alright , the level of pigmentation on the product is good but not as pigmented as Julep, you need at least 3 coats ( maybe it varies from color to color ). I will deff. re-purchase a ZOYA nail polish I believe they are worth it but if you make me pick Ill pick Julep over any :D sorry its just the best polish for me , or the one that works for me the best Im not saying other brands are bad or maybe Ill get a Julep color that will make me change my mind. This is my honest opinion at the moment. 

Overall ZOYA is a good product worth the $, GR8 color I LOVE MARINA :D .

NAIL-FILES 101: CUTICLE REMOVER ( DISOLVER )

Hello beauties well as many of us know cuticles can be a pain in the bootey , I feel it marks the difference from a GR8 nail polish application from a "messy" looking one, but if you can pull of a GR8 nail polish application with cuticles , OMG youre my new hero.

I honestly would only pushem back with an orange stick and done-so. Until I decided TODAY is the day I need to get rid of them now, so I went on a journey to get something to get'em out , Walmart was my best bet lol, I went straight to the nail-care aisle and while I was trying not to look over to the nail polish section I saw a huge SALLY HANSEN section that honestly had never gotten my attention before, I mean I have purchased some stuff from that brand in the past but Id never taken a look so deep into it. I saw some cutile removing cream, oil and a gel. I was reading all the specs on all of them and decided that de GEL was the once I wanted to try.WHY? I decided to grab it because the box said " DISSOLVE cutiles in 15 SECONDS " I was likee yeiii , got home and did exactly what the box said , which was to put on the product on your cuticles for 15 seconds and after that to gently push the cuticle back and remove the excess product with soap water.

The product worked really well , if you need something effective to remove cuticles and are maybe in a hurry or just want to try something different try ( ( Sally Hansen Cuticle Dissolver ) )
