Epic Fail: Bundle Monster


This weekend I  tried to use the bundle monster to do some nail designs.. lets just say practice  will definitely be needed ..it was a disaster .. I had smudges all over my nail... but I'm going to try again..  horrible huh?
I used OPI Do You Lilac It? and for the tip I used Orly Space Cadet.. when i do it again I will re-post.. I just wanted you guys to see that its not always the first time that you try something that it comes out perfect...

Victoria's Secret Sale

So as you all know it is semi-annual time, the sale started on 01/04/2011...Bras... Panties.... Sleepwear...Make-up ......well they have their make-up at 75% off regular price... I bought this lipstick ... recently I have not had the greatest luck with their make-up I had gotten their powder foundation the mineral kind... it wouldn't spread like it was supposed to... the glitter shadows cracked apart after the first use... I was informed by the associates that it was crappy... but lets get back on track....I liked the lipstick it glided on very smoothly... the color is very true to what is in the tube... For less than $3.... I would recommend it


Perfect Lipstick in Starlet:







I like the cute packaging as well ...... this was one of their Limited Edition packaging for the holidays I believe...

New Product Review

So I ran out of my regular face wash, clearly I'm devastated but I went out to my local target to see what I could find.. Lo and Behold I stumbled on the L'Oreal go 360 clean the sensitive skin formula with the little scrubby brush..... Here are my thoughts: It's not as harsh as some other cleaners can be, It leaves behind a nice clean feeling and the smell is minimal(because as we all know , some unscented things still have a slight smell to it)... but the little scrubby brush that is attached is kinda useless..


I also noticed that I had a break out issue as well so I started using the Clinque Acne Solutions: It doesn't have that medicated smell to it which is awesome.. who wants to smell like a medicine cabinet... You have to leave it time to dry once you put it on..... hopefully it clears up the spots on my face... we will see..

Drug Store Haul: Lipgloss

So I happened to walk in to Walgreen's this weekend and found the Sally Hansen lip gloss on sale... Man did I ever hit the mother load... the were regularly 7 bucks.. but I got them for $1.59 . it was awesome.

I wanted to see if the lip inflation worked as well as the Christian Dior lip plumper... This sale gave me a chance to try it guilt free..

This is my lip without anything on it...





OK so this is the order in which they are:

Picture 1:  from left to right:  Sally Hansen Diamond 12 HR.* Lip treatment  in  Marquise, Flawless.. Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme in Sheer Bare..then the Sally Hansen Lip Inflation Extreme in Clear....

Picture 2: the lip inflation in clear... it has a nice smell

Picture 3:  the Marquise lip treatment it has a nice nudish pink to it

Picture 4:  lip inflation in sheer bare , this is  a good nude...it does give the lip that fuller look... so if you have thin lips and want that luscious look this is the thing to buy.. just as an FYI it does have a tingly feel to it.

Picture 5: the Flawless lip treatment this is more of a coral I like this color I haven't seen it on anything yet..

In all if you were trying to get a product for cheaper I would try Sally Hansen
