It's Britney!



This video is Amazing! It's just me against the music! = D

Milani and Rimmel Mascara


Today I wore Rimmel Magnify Mascara which got the job done. I posted some horrible pictures (still working the kinks out in the new camera) you can see how it turned out. I find that it isn't dramatic and the black pigment isn't deep enough to give my eyelashes a lush, full look. Also, the eyeshadow I tried is called Taffy #10 by Milani. I would say any of milani's eyeshadow are going to give you great results. So, if there is a particular color you love buy it Milani to save some $$. Don't opt for a different brands with a look a like, other brands may lack quality.
*Raff Rawff Raff* *RAFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF*
This color would look great on someone with cool tones!! Oh, sorry about the eyelash curling. I was in a rush lol. Yeah, my eyelashes are lengthy someone once said, "Oh my gosh, you look like a bat." LOL those lashes are so damn long especially when they are straight. Oh well, Thank you God I think...

Thoughts

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. *crosses fingers* Please let it snow soon maybe on Thanksgiving!! = }.

Olives Please


It does not matter if it is the super market, if beauty buys are on sale, I'll be there making a selection. With that said, wow, St. Ive's new and improved line is the bee's knees. When I use the olive scrub, it is like I'm sticking my head in the center of a bouquet of olives and aromatic flowers. This facial scrub is both delicate and clean-smelling, which brings a therapeutic dimension to my shower and I am digging it. As far as it's properties the consistency is not like a scrubber but more like a moisturizer. Instantly, my face sucks this stuff up! I feel it makes my face look younger, and it relieves me of stress so I am completely refreshed after I rinse it off. St. Ives olive scrub is great as a secondary cleanser, I usually follow up with a second cleanser that mositerizes after using an oil stripping harsh product. Yay for 50% off mark downs! The full price is around $8-9 so I will be watching for another sale.

Milani Vs. Physicians Forumla


Oh, the difficulties of finding the ideal powder foundation! The perfect powder to me is bendable, doesn't cake, and offers a substantial amount of coverage. I put Milani and Physicians Formula to the test to see which is more ideal. First here is a description of each.

1. Physicians Formula Pressed Powder Organic Wear- This compact offers great coverage and makes your skin feel soft. I am impressed that it is organic.

PRO'S- Great coverage, improved my skin tone and texture, easy to apply, portable, no mess, has a mirror, matched perfectly.

CON'S- Sometimes I found the product looked cakey when I used too much. Also, it had a tendency to make my skin look dry and flaky.

2. Milani Minerals- Be careful when I walked into my bathroom I accidentally bumped my hand into the door causing the bottom cap to fly off and powder to escape everywhere. The packaging is not sturdy.

PRO'S- Good coverage, produced a soft look, and was very bendable.

CON'S- The packaging sucks. It is messy to use so I wouldn't travel with it.

CONCLUSION: I loved that physicians formula helped my breakouts! No matter what I'd still use this product despite cons because it controls my acne. But, of course it would be a waste to make this a tie. There has to be a winner, so I say Milani Minerals took gold; the appearance was superior. I had great results with it, I loved my complexion after each use.

Researching reviews on the inter web helps me narrow my choices when selecting beauty products. Thus, I have to give credit to one of the reviews I read that motivated me to test the Milani Powder. The post I read on beautybunny, said that Milani's Powder is better than the one and only, prestigious, pimped out-Bare Minerals! I had to try it and I am happy I did. You can find more reviews on the link below. Thanks guys! <3

Loving this!!

Yes, a drugstore product that gives my lips that tingly burn comparable to LipVenom; Maybelline volume XL seduction lip plumper, if you've tried it you know its power! If lip gunk that burns and makes you feel like Pamela Anderson is your thing, then welcome botox alternative Maybelline. Definitely, wish I was born with it! But sadly, this girl was not I have small lips. Thus, I prefer lip gloss to lipstick because it stays on better and gives my lips more dimension. Because it reflects light it tends to balance other facial features that are done up. And, lip gloss always looks cute with curled eyelashes, very sweet.
The two colors I tested and approve are inspiring iris and proud pink. They applied smoothly and the pigments were perfect, not too strong and definitely not weak. I honestly think the colors would flatter anyone! Burn baby burn.

Burt's Bees


My hands have been extremely dry and itchy lately. Nothing is working and I hate the feeling. I enjoy several scented lotions by Giovanni since they are rich and help soothe the pain temporarly but recently I have been drawn to Burt's Bees products. For lotion, since the skin is the body's largest organ, I try to go with organic products for covering bigger areas because I don't want to absorb harmful chemicals. Burt's Bee's body butter in cocoa butter and macadamian nut is smooth applying and nourishing. It can protect the outerlaryer of skin from the harsh wheather. This stuff gets addicting, I can apply it several times in a day or sometimes hours. Overal, the condtioning power isn't strong but the melt in your hands texture and clean smell makes it a winner for me. I love reaching for it; the bright label and package is cute and fun to apply. I definately am a Burt's Bees girl! Love.
