So I recently received the Goddess VoxBox from influenster for free to test out products and included was a product from Cutex. It was a nail polish remover pad that comes individually. I think these are absolutely for travel when going on extended trips. If you are like me, I love to change my polish very often and these will come in handy on my future vacations.

Below, is a video of me using the nail polish pads. These pads are more so like a rough sponge rather than a cotton ball which, is what I usually use. If it looks like I'm having a hard time, I promise it was because I was trying my best to make sure my phone didn't fall while filming!

These do remove polish well and one remover pad actually removed polish from my entire hand! These can get expensive because a 3 pack at Target is $1.49. But, if you need it on the go, I think it is totally worth!

What are you thoughts? Have you tried these yet? Would love to know!

Hello everyone! I thought I would jump on here quickly and share with you the FULL SPOILERS for the July Boxycharm shared by LauraLee88 on snapchat! If you don't know who she is, I'll link here youtube channel here for you to check her out. She's a super sweet and funny youtuber that I love to watch!

The first product has been spoiled already and is a Ofra Cosmetics Z palette filled with six eyeshadow singles worth $59.

PYT Argan Oil Treatment is another product in the box and is worth $30.

The next product is a Mally Beauty Eyeliner in Ice Blue worth $18. I have a couple of Mally Beauty eyeliners from a set I purchased at Christmas and I absolutely love the formula! It glides smoothly without tugging or pulling at your eye. 

Next up is a Noyah Lip Gloss in the shade Malbec. This is worth $16.

Below is the Noyah Lip gloss and the Mally Eyeliner swatched!

This box is worth a total of $123 from the full price value of the items! This box seems like a really great value! Will you be getting this? I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comment section below!

I found some great products recently at Walgreens and though I would share!

These Wet n Wild Megaliner Liquid Eyeliners are part of the Limited Edition Spring Collection and I absolutely love them! They are super pigmented and last for quite a while! My favorite way to wear them is the layer them on like a normal eyeliner and then take a liquid black liner as close to the lash line as possible. I find this not only helps the color to pop but, also helps to make your lashes look fuller!

For a $3 pack of brow products, these actually perform really well! The Wet n Wild Brow Pencil pulls a little red on me but, can be toned done with a proper brow powder (like the Elf Brow kit). For a really inexpensive product, I love it. The pencil lends more on the creamy side but, can be easily controlled with a light hand. The brow wax pencil hold pretty well but, I prefer the wax in the Elf Brow kit. Not bad for $3 though!

The Wet n Wild illumi-naughty Concealer might be my new favorite for under the eyes. Although, I am not the biggest fan of brush tip products, I can overlook that for this concealer. I love the color and consistency. It is a creamier concealer but, will last all day when set with a powder. One draw back to this concealer is the limited shade range of only two shades that fit only light to light-medium skin tones. If you can find a shade to work with you, I highly recommend it! It is a slightly cheaer alternative (at $5 a pop) to the Maybelline Age Rewind concealer.

The Wet n Wild Matte Lip Colour is a gorgeous lip color but, has a very patchy and not well pigmented formula. Plus, it is drying on the lips. Would not recommend unless you exfoliate like a mother trucker and apply a ton of lip balm.

The Wet n Wild Megaslick lip balms, however, are great for the summer months. They last between 3 to 6 hours before reapplication and are just an effortless lip color. Once applied, not much thought is needed to worry about how they look as I found they wear off pretty evenly and leave a slight stain behind. I found a 2 pack for $3 at Walgreens!

Well, that's it! I hope you enjoyed this little haul. Let me know some of your favorite Wet n Wild products below!

Hello Everyone! I was scrolling through the ELF website (like I'm sure all of you naturally do) and saw some new and interesting products! Just thought I would share some of those with you today. Enjoy!

Beautifully Bare 3-in-1 Makeup Base is a new product that claims to prime the skin, brighten and refine the appearance. It has Acai, Grapeseed oil, and Vitamin C and E. It is $10 a pop which, to me, seems expensive for an Elf product but, it does contain good skincare ingredients.

Beautifully Bare Lightweight Concealer Stick claims to conceal dark circles and imperfection the a silky, creamy formula. It unfortunately only comes in 4 different shades. For me, ELF typically is too dark even with the fairest shades. ELF also doesn't run deep enough either but, they may add shades later. Unlike the Makeup Base above, this will only set you back a mere 4 dollars.

Micellar Cleansing Water claims to cleanse the skin an remove makeup. The bottle contains 5.0 fluid ounces for $7. I think this is quite high considering Garnier's micellar water costs about the same this elf one and contains 13.5 fluid ounces of product. I really love Garnier's formula better and recommend you check that out first.

Beautifully Bare Finishing Powder claims to be a lightweight powder that will give some coverage while mattifying the skin and minimizing imperfections. This comes with a powder puff and a mirror. This will cost you $6.

ELF revamped their Daily Hydration Moisturizer with a new, limited edition one containing SPF 15. Just make a note that if enough people like this, they will make it permanent, This happened with their 4 pan illuminating palette. It was originally a limited edition product and then ELF saw that so many people like it, they brought it back for good. This product cost $7.

Lastly, the Precision Sponge Trio is Elf's take on the beauty blender. Comes with a large sponge meant for blending foundation, a medium meant for contour or blush and a small meant blend hard to reach places like inner corner concealer. It is latex free in case you were wondering. It costs $12 for the set.

Well that's it! I'd love to hear if you have tried out any of the products or plan on trying them!

Check out all the products (and more) here!

For 48 hours, you can get a free Em Cosmetics Cheek palette with any Ipsy subscription! In case you didnt't know, Ipsy is a beauty subscription that costs $10 a month and includes 5 full or sample sized products. This subscription will have you take a survey in order to tailor your experience more. I like Ipsy but, it is not my favorite subscription by any means. I prefer Boxycharm or Sephora Play!

Happy Shopping!

Walmart Beauty Box is a subscription box that is delivered once every season for $5 including shipping. This is one of the cheapest subscription boxes around so if you aren't sure about subscription boxes, this would be a good one to try.

Vaseline Intensive Care Advanced Repair Unscented Lotion (Value: $0.70) is a nice lotion that absorbs quickly and is unscented so if you are sensitive to that, this may be a nice option for you. I am traveling pretty soon so it is nice to have this with me.

St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub (Value: $0.58) is the non blemish prone version which means it does not contain Salicylic Acid. So, this would be a good option for dry skin that still want a gentle exfoliation.

Eucerin In- Shower Moisturizer (Value: $0.19) is a very similar product to the Nivea In-Shower Body lotion. I perfer Nivea as they have a version for Very Dry Skin with Almond Oil. This still is not a bad product. I just prefer body butter first and then the Nivea version.

Arm & Hammer Truly Radiant Clean and Fresh (Value: $1.33) is a nice travel sized toothpaste to take on a trip. This claims to whiten teeth in five days and I believe it does. I could not find a link to this online so I believe this may be new.

Sally Hansen Airbush Legs (Value: $1.80) is a makeup to put on your legs to make them look flawless. I have been too scared to try this product because it is in medium and I am pale as the winter's snow. So, I know it won't match me skin tone. But, it is interesting that this is water resistant so you may be able to put this before the beach or pool and not have to worry,

Schwarzkopf Essence Ultimate Diamond Color and Radiance Shampoo and Conditioner (Value:$1.75 together) have a really weird baby powder and fragrance smell. I don't have color treated hair so this shampoo isn't meant for me anyway but, I find the fragrance to be off putting and the shampoo is not bad but, not my favorite either.

Lady Gaga Fame (Value: $0.20) is a Black Liquid Perfume. I find this scent to be more on the spicy side rather than floral. I like it but, I prefer more sweet, floral fragrances like Juicy Couture's Viva La Juicy Noir. 

All in all, this had a nice assortment of products to travel with for the summer. I wish there was a way to customize skin tone because that would maximize your sample usage. The total value for the box is $6.25 which is not bad. I have gotten Walmart Beauty Boxes not worth more than the cost so that is something to note. For $5 though, I can't really complain.

What did you think? I would love to know your thoughts!

Hello everyone! I bring some news of the QVC TSV! A blogger leaked an early photo on a QVC TSV coming up for It Cosmetics on June 25th! The set contains 4 pieces, one of which is a brush. If you get the set on Auto Delivery, then you won't get the brush on the next delivery. The price point has not been released yet!

Link to QVC Forum

Set contains

• CC+ Cream Illumination
• Tightline Full Lash Line Mascara
• Je Ne Sais Quoi Hydrating Color Awakening Lip Treatment
• Foundation Brush (maybe?)

So what do you think about this QVC TSV? Love to hear what you think!

I've got some exciting news to share! Colourpop has expanded their line to fully Mettallic shades! On Snapchat yesterday, the team shared that they will be launching 4 shades (Zebra,ManEater, 3-way, Kween) of the metallic liquid lipsticks. If you are familiar with the Ultra Satin Lip formula then you know what to expect from this new product. They are much more comfortable than a liquid lipstick that dries down matte but, they are not kiss proof and will wear off with time. Like all of the other Ultra Satin and Ultra Matte formulas, these will cost $6.

    

These will be available tomorrow 6/23 at 3pm PST. Are you excited? Will you be picking all, some or one of these shades? Love to hear your thoughts! 

Hello everyone! Today I have an Ipsy sneak peak for the month of July 2016! Below is the sneak peek! As of right now, Ipsy is running a promotion to skip the waitlist and get a bag for July 2016.

• Too Faced Hangover Rx Primer (Full Size: $32)
• Makeup Forever Excessive Lash (Full size: $25)
• The Balm Meet Matt(e) Trimony shadow (Full Size Palette: $42)
• Benefit Ka Brow (Full size: $24)

Each subscriber will get one of these products above!

What do you think of this sneak peek? I'd love to hear your thoughts!

So I don't know about you but, I love finding little hidden gems at the Dollar Tree! This time around I would so awesome Milani Gel Powder Eyeshadows! Drugstore.com sells these for $3.99 a piece and you could get four at the Dollar tree for the price of one! I received one for free from allure as part of a giveaway and I really liked the formula so, I decided to pick them a few others up! Check them out below! 

 Bella Pink is a very light, shimmery pink with white, finely milled sparkles. This color is very nice for all over the lid or as a inner corner highlight.

Bella Sky is a gorgeous light blue shimmer shade. This is a great compliment for blue eyes! 

And for my favorite shade, this dark blue color is absolute stunning as an all over lid shade. It has a metallic finish and if you see it in store, definitely pick it up!

Here are some swatches of the shades. I love the colors!

Wet n wild lipstick, nail polishes and their new brush line has been seen at Dollar Tree. So if you have wanted to tree these, this is a good opportunity!

To put things in perspective, a normal Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector contains 0.28 oz and costs $38 each. So each highlight in this palette is worth about $25 a piece. The Mineral blushes cost $32 and contain 0.2 oz of product. They are worth $19 a piece in this palette. Finally, the luminous blushes run $34 and contain 0.21 oz or product. In this face palette, the blush is worth $16. So, if I did my math right, the palette is worth around $104 or twice as much as the palette costs, which is $52.

Thanks to Influenster, I was able to try the new line of L'oreal Extraordinary Oil Hair products for free. The main draw to these products are that they are infused with an oil complex that consist of Coconut, Argan, Chamomile, Amla, Soja, and Sunflower oil. This is suppose to bring moisture to dry, damage hair and help hair look healthy and shiny.

My experience with this product was a very good one. I really enjoyed these products and found that they made my hair much less frizzy. I have extremely dry, frizzy hair that does not like the Florida Humidity at all. It is really hard for me to find products that help combat this. I found the Shampoo, Conditioner and Oil Serum all together really helped control this problem. The shampoo comes out much more oily than a normal shampoo but, lathers up quite nicely. The conditioner is as creamy as one would expect. Both products wash out without a fuss and leave the hair feeling smooth. The real super star to me is the Lustrous Oil Serum. If I could only repurchase one product, it would be this. It is incredibly lightweight and doesn't weigh down my fine hair. It smooths out frizz in seconds and brings life and shine to it. I really love this products and can't wait to repurchase it. I have a feeling it will be in my favorites pretty soon!

These products run at about $5 a piece. You can buy them from practically any grocery store. I suggest Target because they will run a deal if you buy three to four L'oreal product (depending on the sale), you get a $5 target gift card. Plus, L'oreal has a $3 target coupon on coupons.target.com that can be used towards the oil serum! It is super easy to get a good deal on these products!

Hope you enjoyed my review! Also, you can sign up for influenster and receive products for free too! You do not have to be a blogger or anything!!

Drab to fab in seconds withthe new L'Oreal Products!

Hey lovelies! I'm back with a Boxycharm review! I waited to post this because I wanted to try most of the products beforehand so I could give you my thoughts!

This month's them was rush to relax. I thought this was super cute and thoughtful! For the most part, people need a break from all the holiday rush and new year resolutions. So this box perfectly fits into the time needed to take a break. 

The first produce was a sheet mask from Shray. I am oily skin so unfortunately I did not try this. I am going to pass it along to a friend who I know will appreciate it. Value: $6.00

The next product is a travel size perfume from Realtree (size is 10 ml). It has a very strong citrus scent to is and perfectly matches the "outdoors" them going on with the packaging. I personally love the scent but, perfume varies so much from person to person so describing on a blog or anywhere else, is quite difficult. Anyone else have thoughts on it? Value: $2.50

This eye cream is very soothing and feels nice to apply. I am 20 years old and I don't have many wrinkles so I can't really say whether or not it helps decrease fine lines and wrinkle. Also, this product is $115 dollars for the full size so I sincerely doubt I will ever purchase this. So, this unfortunately was not my favorite in the bunch. Value:$53

 This Ofra cosmetics banana powder was super nice. I've tried their liquid lipsticks before and I absolutely love them. The only down side is that this is a single pan and so it must be kept in a z palette or something like a z palette. I have a z palette so, luckily, this will work. But, I know most people don't so it might be frustrating to others on trying to find a way to store it. Value: $12

The pan was placed on the card for size comparison

This Spongelle you have my heart on a string body wash infused sponge was very pleasant.It has a floral fruity scent that I love. There are two side, a normal sponge texture and a more exfoliate-like side. I though it was lovely and is a great addition to my shower routine! Value:$15

The product I was hands down most excited was the Beauty for Real Blush and Glo stick in Coral Crush/ Hi Beam. This is amazing. It is super creamy, easy to blend and looks amazing on the skin. There really isn't anything you could ask for more in a product! Value: $24

Swatches of the Blush+Glo and the Banana Powder

This box has an overall value of $112.5. This is over 5 times the cost of the box. Boxycharm always has the best values so I am never worried about it. I loved the box and find all the products to be very well suited to the theme.

So how did you think this box panned out? Are you subscribed to boxycharm? I would love to know your thoughts!
