Shoplately.com

I just found this site and went looking around. I found some cute things, that were reall cheap that I ordered. I can not wait until they come in. I have a link and if you use it to sign up with Facebook you get a 5.00 credit. I found many things on the site that were only 5.00. I think the only thing you have to pay for is shipping, so go ahead take a look :).

UPDATE~~~


This is a quick post about a few things I am working on. I have a few new items I am waiting on to review. I found a new bag,( just waiting on it to get here ) which I am hoping will be wonderful. I have also ordered a new monthly box I am dying to get. Lastly I am going to get all my lipsticks, glosses, balms and whatever else I have together to find my favorites and least favorites. I know I am not on top of the trends and its last season’s stuff and what not, but I think most woman are still on that stuff. I have so much lip stuff also and I like to share my thoughts on it.

Mary Kay Nourishine plus


From my Winter Cravebox I got my first ever Mary Kay product. It is the nourishine plus lip gloss in red passion. From this one product I would have to say I am on the fence about trying anything else from the Mary Kay line.

  This main reason I do not like it is because it has chunky glitter in it and it feels like sandpaper on my lips. It is the worst feeling ever. If I kissed a tissue after putting it on I could get the yucky glitter off my lips and still have a little bit of the color left. I really like the color but after trying to get the glitter off it is not worth the headache. It took me four times of putting it on, getting rid of the glitter than adding more to get it to the point where I liked the color. The color lasted about four hours with drinking, but once it was faded I went to another brand. It was not sticky or has any nasty orders to it which is a plus to the product.

  So all and all I do not like it and would not recommend it to anyone. I really like the color just wish that there was no glitter in the product, it just messes the whole thing up to me.
 
This is a link to my other blog so you are able to see the color because I am still not sure why I can not add pictures anymore to this blog.

Gold Bond Ultimate


So I got my Winter Favorites Cravebox and I wanted to review the Mary Kay product that was included. I had lots I had to do before hand, but got everything ready set aside for later and now I cannot find it anywhere.  Not a clue in the world on where it has gone. After I get done this review I will start looking for it so I can share that review with you guys as soon as I can.

  Now on to the review, I know this is an older product, but I just found it and am in love with it. It is the Gold Bond Ultimate healing with Aloe lotion. I used a coupon a while back and was able to get a travel size for free to try. After picking it up that day, I set it with the other lotions and forgot all about it until just these last few weeks.

  I live in New England, work as a cashier in a very busy store and am on my feet all day long. All of these things together have made my hands and feet so dry I could not stand myself. I have so many lotions in my stash and I was trying one after another after another until I pulled out the Gold Bond. It is a very thick creamy lotion, once you rub it in your skin soaks it right up and there is no grease left. It has a very soft smell of aloe, which I personally like because I can use it with other perfumes or body sprays and it does not make those scents smell funny. I always have a little one with me no matter where I go and use it often. I have been using it about two weeks and it has made my hands so much softer and no dry skin. I also use it on my feet every night. I think this is my favorite thing to do with the lotion. It just makes my tired feet relax and once I put it on I slip into some fuzzy warm socks and let it work. My feet have stopped cracking and starting to heal up and get nice and soft again.

 

  Hands down this has become my favorite lotion. I love the feel, how well it works, and the smell of it. I have included their links so you can check them out. I love this lotion and give it five stars. I want to start checking out their other products to see if they work just as well, so the Gold Bond reviews should be updated down the road.

So it has been a busy and sad time all around me. I have not forgotten about the blog and have been picking up new products to review for everyone I am going to try for at least two reviews a week. As you already know they can be anything from beauty items, to pet food. If there is anything you want to know about just ask away.

Vapour part two


Back with part two of the Vapour reviews. I am going to talk about two of their products today. Their new trick sticks, and solar translucent bronzer.

   I will start with their bronzer. It comes in three colors, mirage, simmer, and spicy. I got one in mirage. They say this about their bronzer; “a sophisticated bronzed appearance while delivering powerful antioxidants and moisture with Vapour’s exclusive light-as-air, botanically- infused organic base...” This is another product that is light as air. I can add this over the foundation and still feel as nothing is there. It comes in stick form so it is very easy to pack and go. No need for brushes, just swipe it on a do a little blending. It works great on my skin and gives me a perfect sun kissed look. I love the way this looks over any of my powdered bronzers. This gets a 5 of 5 stars and have been telling everyone and showing it to everyone.

  The next product is their Trick Sticks. This is their new “precision beauty tool to achieve a lit-from-within glow.” It is a high lighter in their great stick form. I got it in luster, dazzle, and star, and I love every one of them. I use them on my brow bone, cheek bones, and down my nose. They give a great glow that really wakes up my face. It is a glow that people even notice. They are very light weight, and the texture is smooth and creamy. It glides on perfect and just needs a little bit of blending. They are all highly pigmented and have just the right amount of simmer. I am in love with both of these products, just like their foundations. They are so creamy when you put them on and light weight to wear. It has been so hot here and I am ok to wear these out for the day. I used all of their products for my cousins out door wedding and they stood up to the heat, sweat, humidity, all of it. I give the trick sticks a 5 of 5 too. So far I have no complaints about anything. Great packaging and great wear ability.

Vapour review part 1


I got a great box of goodies from Vapour to share my honest thoughts with you gals. Vapour is an organic beauty company, which came out with a new formulation that is not a powder, cream, or liquid, something in between all of it. I am going to break this review into parts so it’s not so long to read.

     The first thing I am going to talk about is their foundations. They have it in two forms, a liquid type, called atmosphere soft focus foundation and a stick kind of cream type, called atmosphere luminous foundation. I like the soft focus pump one the best just because I like the pump and that it gives you a dewy finish. They are both so light weight. I feel like I have nothing at all one my face. I never thought foundation could make you feel that way. My skin can breathe and still look pretty. They have been perfect for this crazy heat this summer. They both have become my everyday go too foundation. The soft focus one goes on so easy and blends like a dream. It gives great coverage, with and without concealer and lasts all day for me. The luminous foundation has a tiny bit more of a matte finish. Everything else is just like the soft focus one. I was scared of it at first because it was a cream in a stick and was unsure how to put it on and how well it would blend, but I had no problems. I put a few swipes on my face and use my beauty blender to blend it in and it is a perfect finish every time. They come in many different skin tones so there is one for everyone out there. I found that the s100 is perfect match for me. I give this foundation a 5 of 5 stars. I have never liked a foundation as much as I like this one. I will not go back to any of the other ones I have; they are all going to friends. I recommend this to anyone who wants a super lightweight great coverage foundation.
