Venus Lab Svelte Body Gel

Venus Lab Svelte Body Gel


I've never been this happy all my life. I think the happiest day of my life begun when I knew about the Venus Lab Body Gel. I am not joking. This is soooo true. 


Venus Lab Svelte Body Gel helped me a lot. This product helped me to lose some inches in my body. Especially in my tummy. And it also made my self confidence go up high. 

FLASHBACK:

When I was in College I am really having a hard time losing weight. Maybe because I don't easily sweat. Unless I have to die at the gym. I am really having problems with sweating. During our P.E. class, all my group mates are sweating while I am not. And I don't know why is that. 


That is why, I am really losing hope to be slim. I know it won't happen. But everything changed when I had my very first crush. He is gorgeous. Not because of his physique but most importantly is his attitude. He doesn't laugh at me. He shares lunch table with me. And He even invited me to watch him playing basketball. I feel like dying during that time. I am wishing to be his girl. But I know in my body, I can't be. No one would believe that he could be in love with someone like me.


So I started to eat less because of him. I want him to like me. Not pity me. I want to know how beautiful I am inside and out. I want to look good for him. 


Then my childhood best friend called me on my phone just to say that she's using a product named Venus Lab Svelte Body Gel. She asked me to check in online while she's on the other line. She said it is very effective. And she forced me to buy it. 


I used it and I love it. I love the warm feeling on my skin. Knowing that it burns my fats. I love how it made my skin tighter. It even restored the youthful appearance of my skin. I really love this product. It made everything possible.

MAKE Matte & Dew...

MAKE Matte & Dew...


So excited to have found this "MAKE Matte&Dew". It is extremely unique compared to any thing I have in my makeup bag. This product is specifically for the purse, for you ladies who are out and about or have a really busy night life. This is the IDEAL product to throw in your bag if you ever feel like as the night goes on your makeup gets greasy or your face looks dull. There is the left "Matte" side of the palette that is essentially a gel type substance that squelches all oil that you might have. You can use your fingers to pat it onto areas that are shiny that shouldn't be, like the center of your forehead or the part of your cheeks (closer to the nose)that tend to get oily. Then, the "Dew"you can strategically place anywhere that you do want a glowy shine, like the top of your cheekbones, down the center of your nose, the cupids bow of your lips and a little bit above the outer top edge of your eyebrows. These pictures show just how well the glow works, and I used the Matte for the center of my forehead which you can see looks powdered. Even better, ten percent of the proceeds go to non-profit organizations that help women owned businesses, and it is also made in NYC. Will not clog pores either.Buy it here for 27$.

Wen Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner- 32$

Wen Sweet Almond Mint Cleansing Conditioner

Ahhh, all the hype for the WEN Sweet Almond Mint CLeansing Conditioner was right! I absolutely loved how my hair felt after using this. NO heaviness or oily greasy feel. This product does contain amodimethicone, which is a silicone but I read this really interesting article about it, and it seems that it's a very good quality silicone that can benefit people with really brittle dry hair. My hair ended up having some nice shine and bounce to it, which was strange, because I don't normally have bounce, and my hair has gotten SO long as of late which would negate bounce! This product markets itself that you can go even longer without washing your hair. I actually noticed that after three days, my hair didn't feel as dirty as it normally would at that point. My one HUGE negative with this product is that the directions call for like 70000 pumps (like over 15) if you have long hair. WHAT? And you literally can't go with less because the spreadability of the product is not that great so you NEED the extra. Sigh...wellll 34 $ would be the cost of a pretty good shampoo and conditioner together, but I can't see this lasting too long. I do recommend it though! You will be pleasantly surprised with how great it works to cleanse and condition at the same time.

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15....Reviews & Pics

Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15....Reviews & Pics



I have had these Fresh Sugar Lip Treatment SPF 15 lip balms for a while now and love them. I figured I would show the different colors on, just because I personally found that they look nothing like the color of the tube when they are applied. My favorite is the Rose color. They have such an amazing almost shiny balmy consistency and smell like sugar and lemons. The tubes are metal and weighted, which gives them a luxurious feel. I just love having one of these in my purse on the go. They are 22.50 each..a little expensive for a tinted lip balm. I definitely want to try the Plum and Passion colors as well! You can find them here.

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette...Review and Pictures.

Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette

I recently got this AMAZing coupon from Sephora, so I ordered the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette with it. Mind you, I Do not even own one or two!!! I just felt like these colors were different enough from the shades I have with all the palettes I have lying around. I have wayyy to many browns and wanted to switch things up a bit. I absolutely LOVE the shades in this palette. They definitely have PINKISH undertones to them, which can sortof look like you bruised your eye (done wrong), but worn the right way (as in NOT all the way up to your brow bone), I feel like they are gorgeous. My Current color favorites from the palette are Buzz(a shimmery pinkish purple), Burnout(more of a pearl version of the Buzz color), Liar(a really gorgeous taupe with slightly pink/purple undertones) Factory(a darker taupe), Mugshot(purply pinkish taupe colors), Darkside(a dark purply taupe) and Blackheart(the dark purply black color), great along the lower lash line.

All in all, I'm extremely happy with this purchase, and once I do more looks with it I will share through this post. I just wanted to show you the preliminary testing of the colors. I really do think any eye color could pull this off. I thought maybe it wasn't suitable for brown eyes because of such strong pink almost red undertones, but honestly the purple in the colors really does help to bring out the yellow in brown eyes (Seeing as they are contrasting colors) so they really do look great with brown eyes. I also think blue eyes might be even better for this palette! :) :) :).

The Ideal Brush Cleaning System...

The Ideal Brush Cleaning System

Can I just say that this Parian Spirit Brush cleaning system might be one of my favorite cosmetic purchases ever? I honestly don't even know how I lived without this system. I was in the habit of washing my brushes at least once every other week or so with baby shampoo, but this makes it sooo much easier to clean them as often as I want without a huge hassle. Even better, the solution that is used to clean them is food grade and non-toxic. It smells like delicious oranges, and the whole room smells pleasant after I use it. Also, my brushes are impossibly shiny and soft after cleaning them. I really am a freak about beauty tools and have bought some really great brushes that I want to take care of better so that they last. Here is what Beautylish.com says about Parian Spirit Brush Cleaning system:

"The Parian Spirit Brush Cleaning System contains everything you need to clean your brushes under any circumstance. The 2 oz. spray bottle is ideal for moment-to-moment cleaning while in the middle of makeup application and the perfect size for travel. The Parian Spirit Jar allows you to keep your brush cleaner handy without carrying a large bottle and the 8 oz. bottle gives you the ability to refill both. Use in combination or grab the one you need in any circumstance.

Parian Spirit is made from citrus spirits and food grade solvents, giving it powerful cleaning properties designed to gently clean, condition and disinfect fine brush hair. This cleaner dissolves all types of makeup products including powder, liquids, wax-based products and adhesives. It conditions brushes as it cleans and is quick-drying. The orange scent comes from the natural orange oils used in the formula. It is non-toxic."

I love the jar that contains a mesh type plastic grate that gives the brushes some friction when you rub the bristles across the grate. OK that probably made no sense so here is a great demo you can watch. SO worth the 23$ for the whole system. Get it onbeautylish.com, one of my favorite new sites for beauty purchases. They usually have free shipping for purchases over 35$, which is great! Also, I love when I get packages from them. They are wrapped so beautifully, and they always include a sweet hand written note. It really is the details that count, and they get it!

New Favorite Cleansers....

New Favorite Cleansers


I have finally found an extremely affordable GREEN paraben & Sulfate free cleanser that I LOVE. Say hello to the "Yes to Carrots Fragrance Free Daily Cream Facial Cleanser- 6.99$"...which they even made fragrance free recently. I personally like the carroty scent of the original version, so it's cheap enough that I actually have both versions. I have been using this cleanser for about 6 months now and am hooked based on price and efficacy. The best thing about this cleanser is that if I use a wash rag and hot water and lay it on my face a few times after applying the cleanser, it really wipes off all of my makeup without drying out my skin. It doesn't remove my eye makeup(which is a good thing because then it would be stripping my skin), so I have actually been using RMS Raw Coconut Cream which is pure coconut oil to remove my eye makeup at night, and it works brilliantly. I just rub it together on my fingers until it warms up and then apply it to my eye area. I then take this microfiber mitt and it literally removes every trace of eye makeup. If any of you are still going to bed wearing eye makeup, HUGE no no!! I yell at my sisters every time I see them about this stuff haha.

The Microfiber mitt is 5.99$ 

 

and it works awesome.

ALSO, if you are looking for a scrub, you can always mix granulated sugar with the Yes to Carrots Daily Cream Facial Cleanser and you have just saved yourself some serious $.


If you are wanting to spend a LITERAL fortune on a green cleanser, well...here is one I have tested recently as well just with a generous sample from Sephora. I kind of wanted to eat it, it smelled so good...UGH. 75$. The reason it is so expensive is that Tata Harper actually grows her own plants that go into all her products and the batches are handmade and always only a month old at purchase at most (according to Sephora Rep). It also smells tangy, kind of like a sweet tangerine...I would get excited to wake up in the morning and wash my face if I actually decided to buy this, buuuut I jusssttt can't justify this. I'll stick to my 7$ Cleanser that works just fine. If you have money to throw around, then this is it! It has small exfoliants in it as well that scrub just enough that you don't feel dry after cleansing.
