Pimple Patrol

Have you ever gotten those ugly red bumps or pimples on your face and have not been able to hide them. Well I have a trick for you. Use your concealer and dab it, and blend it. When you are done with your concealer apply a small amount of white liner. (Try using e.l.f eye widener in white) Then apply the rest of your makeup. The tone correction in the concealer and the lightening white color or eye widener lightens the redness of the area and makes it easier to cover up.

Au Naturale

In an earlier post, 3D Glass, I commented on how MAC was coming out with a new collection. Well I finally got to try my new product, and I love it. I bought it Synched Up, and it is gorgeous. It is a peachy color, so it gives a nice natural touch with a great gloss touch. When you put it on and the light hits it, it gives a gorgeous glimmer and 3D shine! So go out and find the color that best suits your personality.

NightLife

One day I walked into work and noticed 3 different colored bottles on my desk. I turned to my boss and asked her what they were. She told me that they were lip glosses and she did not like them because there was too much glitter in them, and that I was to have them. I thought that was really cool. Well When I looked at them I noticed they were the new Rimmel Underground Lightbeam After dark lip glosses with the light beam, and it has a little mirror on the side. Perfect for when you are in a club and want an extra kick of shine on your lips, on the side you have a mirror, and at the top of the cap, a button which activates a light, no need for the bathroom. As you look in the mirror and focus the lighted wand towards your lips, all you see is where exactly your gloss needs to be applied. Or maybe you're having that romantic dinner on a first date, after dinner her gets up to go use the restroom and you notice that the restaurant is a tad too dark, but hey you have your new lip gloss. I love it! One of my favorite colors is spotlight. Spotlight is a very sheer gloss with a slight hint of color. you don't really notice its "hot pink" appearance, you just have nice shine and cotton candy smell. I think every girl needs at least one bottle, because who knows when you will have to reapply. It is IT girl accessory for the girl on the go.




Beyond being a great gloss, I also think it is ingenious for women going to their cars alone at night or trying to get into their homes in the dark. Use the gloss to quickly light up the keyhole and you will no longer be fumbling when that creepy guy that wants your number tries to follow you to your car.

Allergic Reaction!

So if you have read my blog before you know how much I love my products!!! Especially my MAC makeup. Well I tried MAC's new line called Tendertones, bought their lip moisterizer called hush hush. Well I already use their regular tinted lip moisterizer, so I figured how bad could it be? Well it was bad. I tried it and my top lip broke out in this dry skin that would not go away. I wasn't sure if it was the lip conditioner that was doing it. I mean like I said I had used their other product before. Well on Sunday I went to Key Largo and when I went in the salt water I noticed my lips were burning really bad! I didn't know what was causing it, and sure enough the next day my top lip had that dry skin feeling again, I had used that product again, two days before. So now my lip feels funny! So me being the product junkie I am I find a product that I think will aid in taking it away....I go straight for my Product Body whipped Shea butter, and start applying it to my lips. That was yesterday and sure enough today it is half gone.....Thank heaven for Product Body...can't wait to try their new scents!!!!

Lust, Love, or a Crush on You


I heard about this Product line 'Product Body' through a co-worker of mine who found it on a beauty blog. She was raving about the prducts, their sent, and how well they worked, so of course me being the product junkie I am I decided to take a try. So I went on their website and ordered their Whipped Shea Butter in Yuzu scent. I recieved the product, and instantly opened it. The scent was so fresh and citrusy and almost immediately i had wished I could have taken a butter knife and spread it all over my body. It doesn't leave your skin feeling greasy, but it leaves it fresh and moisturized! So then i looked in the box and realized they had also sent me a small sample of this Crush on You Sugar Shea Scrub in Pink Grapefruit scent. I had left it on my dresser waiting for the right time to try it, I mean the jar is so small I didn't want to just waste it. Then I ordered another product, Their Mama Bomb, in Citrus Butter, which by the way is excellent for strech marks, for before, during or after pregnancy, etc. And again in the box was another sample of this crush on you, this time in the same yuzu scent i had my shea butter in. So 2 nights ago i decided to try it while in the shower. Just to test the product I tried it on my hands. The sugar melts into your skin while exfoliating, it was wonderful, and then when I was done I wiped my hands, probably out of shear force of habit, as not to feel greasy (which this product does not make you feel at all) and I really didn't feel any different, I wondered what the whole hype was about. I mean I had used scrubs before, and never liked the greasy feeling, but as far as exfoliation, it didn't feel any different. The next morning i woke up and felt a huge difference in the way my skin felt. It was insane to think that it actually worked even though immediatley after I didn't notice. Then the real answer about Crush on You came. I was at my boyfriends house last night, and while watching my favorite TV show, I started to rub on his chest a little, and he kind of jumped up and said to me "Oh my G-d, your hands are so soft!" Now my boyfriend (like most men) is not the most observant, and he actually noticed, that's when I knew this was the best scrub I had ever used! I love it, and I can't wait to get the large jar; in every scent!
