NEW PRODUCT ALERT!- Veil Cosmetics AutoMATTE Skincare-Infused Powderless Mattifier

I actually had a post planned in between this one and the previous one, but me being me, forgot to take the most important pictures for the post, so that one is going to have to wait until next week! =^_^=


I have used Veil Cosmetic products in the past, and absolutely loved them! So when I got the press release about this new product, I have to say that I was pretty stoked! Usually I don't like to talk about products that I have not had the chance to actually try, but I make exceptions! This is one of those exceptions, because I am pretty excited about it! I LOVE anything really that will give you a matte look too the face. I know people are all highlight, highlight, highlight! But for me, I prefer to be matte! My face makes it's own highlight! Bahah gross, I know.

In their demo video... (click the link to see it in action! Veil Cosmetics AutoMATTE Video) I LOVE that they test this over 2 different skin tones! I think for me, even though I'm white, the fact that they showed it being used on a woman of color, it makes me excited! I think that there needs to be more options for those darker skinned ladies, so the fact that this totes the claim of being universal for all skin tones and types just makes me want to try the product out more, really for the basis of being inclusive to all skin ranges. 

That being said. I'll talk more about the product! 

The Body Shop At Home Facial Mask Experience(s)! #MultiMasking #DareToMask

Press Sample

Well howdy doody! Today I have something glorious to talk about! I have actually been saving this post until it got closer to the holiday season! We all know that one person who is utterly obsessed with face masks. I was going to share with you the entirety of the collection, packaging and all, but I can't seem to find it on The Body Shop's website. Such a shame! However, I will link to each individual Face mask. :) 

The Amazonian Acai Energising Radiance Mask is 100% Vegan. Did that have to be larger than the rest of the text? Yes, yes it did because I wanted the point to be across. This masks main..or key ingredients I guess they would be called is Acai Berry and Guarana Extract and Babassu Oil. This mask does have what I am assuming is the seeds from the acai berry in it, which helps exfoliate your skin and the guarana extract helps to awaken your skin.

When you apply this to your skin, I kid you not, it looks like you went for one of those Kim Kardashian Vampire Facials. Does anyone remember when that was popular? That is no joke, what this reminds me of. The color legit looks like a light layer of blood. Every time I use this, it is all I can think of!

When I wore this, it felt tingly, which I am assuming is from the guarana extract "waking" my skin up. It wasn't bothersome at all, but I did feel that my skin definitely didn't look as dull as it has been looking in the recent weeks.

The Chinese Ginseng & Rice Clarifying Polishing Mask is Paraben Free. This mask is NOT Vegan, so those of you who use only Vegan products, this is not for you unfortunately. The key ingredients in this mask are Rice and Ginseng from China as well as Sesame Seed Oil from Nicaragua. Ginseng is known for having toning properties in it, so I feel that it is perfect to have in a face mask. This mask also has salicylic acid in it, so it is perfect for those of us who have acne.

I am not really sure what the exfoliating aspect of this is, I thought it was the rice, but I saw in the ingredients that it is an extract, so I am not really sure.

I loved this mask! My skin bloody glowed after using this! My skin felt tighter and the one pimple that I did have reduced in size!

The British Rose Fresh Plumping Mask is 100% Vegan. Yes, this is another Vegan mask. The key ingredients are Rose petals, rose essence and Rose hip Oil. You could say that this is a very floral masks. I personally don't think that the scent of this is overwhelming and I am pretty sensitive to rose sensitive products. Floral things are just not my jam.

This is best for those who have dry skin. This replenishes moisture as well as soothes and tones skin. Of course oily skinned people can use it as well! I do!

The Himalayan Charcoal Purifying Glow Mask is 100% Vegan. This is a mud mask so be prepared for it to dry! The key ingredients in this are bamboo charcoal and tea tree oil and green tea leaves from Japan. This is another mask that is perfect for acne prone skin. This does have an exfoliating property so it and it is the green tea leaves. Don't be alarmed because it looks chunky in the jar and you will definitely get leaves on your face!

I feel like this mask kind of has a minty scent to it, but it may be the tea tree oil and I could definitely be mistaking the scent! I do also find that this does make your face feel cooler! When this dries be careful! If you talk or move too much it will definitely start to crack and fall off of your face!

The Ethiopian Honey Deep Nourishing Mask is Paraben Free. Obviously this isn't Vegan because it has honey in it. The key ingredients are honey, olive oil and marula oil. This is another mask that is for hydration, so all of you dry skin gals and lads and or all of you who start getting dry areas when the weather gets cooler, this is for you!

This basically looks like you are wearing a clear mask on your skin, it is pretty translucent. The scent of this is lovely, it isn't overpowering, I think it may be the marula oil but it smells so nice..plus you smell the honey as well!

This definitely does hydrate your skin! I could tell my skin was super hydrated, even though it is oily!

Now, each mask is 3 ounces and retails for $28. I know, cringe worthy! They are totally worth it though! Let's be real right now, you don't need to use a lot of each mask to cover an entire face, I have a pretty large one and I barely had to use any to cover my face. These masks will last you quite a while! These are actually products I would go out and purchase on my own, with my own money..That is actually how much I do like these masks. Heck, even Chris likes them and I can't get him to use a face mask most of the time. When I do get him to wear one, it has to be a Body Shop mask because they are the only ones that he likes. That says something because that man hates putting things on his face.

You may notice that each one does do something different, I mean what is the point of having 5 masks that do the same thing! Well, there really isn't one. The point I am getting at is that The Body Shop designed these to be used separately as well as together. Multi-Masking! Using multiple masks on your face to treat the different areas of your skin! I am sure they are not the first ones to come up with it, but I do like how they have put it together. I have yet to try and multi mask because I would no joke, end up putting all 5 on my face just because I dang well could! ... Heck I should do that! I have a stressful day coming up! I just gave myself a great idea. High Give!

Don't think I am just talking these up because they were sent to me. While I am grateful that The Body Shop sent them to me! If you have been here any length of time then you would know, if I don't like a product I either wont talk about it, or I will give it, its rightful review, I do genuinely love these masks. These would be perfect for a gift to yourself or a gift to a skincare lover that you know!

Have you tried these?! Will you try them?!

derma e Psorzema® & Scalp Relief Products

Press Sample

One of the things that I haven't really talked about on my blog is itchy skin. I've talked about it on Twitter and I think Facebook but never on the blog. Insert the derma e Psorzema® and Scalp Relief products. 

The one thing that people definitely don't ever see if that I've got really dry and itchy spots on my body. That is the one unfortunately thing. I had planned on my cousin testing out the Psorzema® Body wash and the Crème because she was recently diagnosed with eczema and is spotty on her body, especially on her chest. Unfortunately she never responded to my request, which stinks because she doesn't like taking the steroid her doctor put her on.

Starting first we are going to talk about the Shampoo because that is the first product that I tried out. I first want to point out that the Scalp Relief Shampoo($11.75) is safe for color treated hair. My hair, as you all know is color treated and I've not noticed any fading or dullness in my hair, so that is awesome. The product was created to sooth, de-flake, cleanse, and nourish the scalp and hair. I've got some pretty heavy dermatitis on my scalp and it's gotten ugly lately. I've tried quite a few things to try and calm it down. Ingredient wise, the important things that I feel needed to be pointed out is that this has Menthol, salicylic acid, tea tree oil in it. 

Obviously there are other amazing ingredients in this, but those are the ones I wanted to point out, just in case you have a sensitivity to them. When you use this, you leave it on your scalp for 3-5 minutes, which in my case seems like an eternity. However, for a clean, non-itchy, flake free scalp, it is totally worth it! When using this alone, because of all of the things in it, it does make my hair feel a little dry, but once you use the conditioner, the dryness goes right away. I do like though that this doesn't dry out the scalp and it smells lightly like the menthol that is in it. It's not overpowering and it doesn't burn your scalp like some other scalp treatment shampoos that I have used.

The Scalp Relief Conditioner ($11.75) has the same ingredients in it that I mentioned with the shampoo. With this, you are also supposed to leave it sitting on your scalp for 2-3 minutes. It will definitely make your shower a little longer, but in the end it is worth it. You can always turn the water off while you're letting the conditioner sit. The only difference between this and the shampoo, is that the conditioner, obviously conditions your hair. Let me just say, it does! I was pretty worried about how my scalp would feel, especially since you have to put this on your scalp, but the shampoo and conditioner really work in tandem.

This does have Argan kernel oil in it to help moisturize your scalp and hair. Scent wise, I am not really sure how I would describe it, so I am not going too. It doesn't smell bad though, so you can be assured of that. Using the two products together, I can go at least a week without my hair getting oily, itchy and the flakes start again after about 6 days, That is bloody amazing to me. I actually just recently went almost two weeks without washing my hair, yes it was oily but the flakes didn't really start or get bad until about a week and 4 days. Although, I will say that sometimes at the slightest hint of foreign moisture my scalp would get incredibly itchy, so that was a bummer to me. I mean, that though could totally just be my scalp. Remember everyone is different.

The Psorzema® Body Wash($11.75) is something that I use on the daily, every time I shower. I love this body wash that much! I've even been using it to wash my face. This gently cleanses the skin, while it moisturizes it as well. This soothes the  itchiness, redness and irritation that I get on my body body and face. Yes, I do use this on my face and it has actually helped with the redness quite a bit. No, it hasn't made me break out and it doesn't dry out the skin.  

This had similar ingredients as the shampoo, conditioner and the crème. This is such a gentle product on the skin and the one thing I will say that if you use this, be very careful. This is very fluid and you can accidentally get way too much product on your hand. Other than that, this is an absolutely lovely product!

The Psorzema® Crème($19.95) is the one product that I was not sure if I was going to like or not. I am not saying that for any particular reason, I just wasn't sure if it was going to be greasy, or if it was going to help out with the dry skin on my body, especially on my hands. Let me just say that this has been my savor. You know when you just have that one amazing product and you tote it with you wherever you go? This is that product. 

It's always in my purse and if I go to say a theme park, you better believe I am taking it with me. It's not greasy at all and it soaks into the skin quickly. This will make your skin unbelievably soft and smooth feeling. I use this really all over my body because it helps with the dryness and actually it keps my skin to not be itchy, which is a godsend. 

The body wash and the creme do not have scents to them, so they are safe if you are scent sensitive. The scents of the shampoo and conditioner are not strong either. I will say that I recommend these products 200% because they've helped my scalp and my skin considerably from when I started using them a good month ago. You can check out each product on Derma E's website and each individual product is linked to the page. I do believe for what they do and being steroid free, these are an amazing deal and the price point is something that I would be willing to pay. 

The Shampoo ad conditioner are probably my favorite products out of the lot because I have been looking for products like them for quite a while and have failed. This is something I will be definitely purchasing quite soon.

Best,
Autumn

Silver Smokey Eye Look with Hard Candy

I'm gonna start this off by saying that I have nothing to disclose at all. Everything was bought by me with my own money.

I've been pretty lax on uploading makeup posts lately and I really have no reason, why. I've been putting them on Instagram really, if I even do that. I've probably got 5 eye looks on my phone that I never uploaded and I've wanted to upload but I never took my Canon out to take pictures of them. Shame on me right? You can slap my hand later.

I've been wanting to do an all drugstore makeup look for a while now and a lot of the time, I do, do that with the exception of my primer. I've yet to find an eye shadow primer that is drugstore that works like the UDPP or TFSI. So, if you know of one, let me know. Thanks!

I bought this particular palette from Hard Candy, literally for one shadow. It was when Marsala was the craze at the beginning of the year and I went crazy buying palettes with a shade that was marsala or close enough to it...I've yet to actually really use the palettes so I went ahead and snagged this one because I knew it was CF and had a lot of shadows in it where I could pick.

So, out of all of the colors that are in it, why did I chose silver and grey? I did it to kind of match the SquareHue polishes from November 2015's box. Which is why this is going up after that post. See what I did there? :D Baaha. Okay, I'm sure you all are tired of looking at me typing, so I shall just get the pictures going and let you know everything that was used!

This is literally your basic of basic "smoky eye" that you can do really with a silver and a dark grey. This is kind of what the look was when I was in color guard, well not look it was the required makeup that we had to wear back when I knew NOTHING about makeup and now I regret not knowing because I could have rocked it.

Eye Primer
Hard Candy Raining Men Palette Silver  & Dark Grey
Jordana Cat Eye Liner - Black Leather
Shimmery brown shade from the same Hard Candy Palette for the lower lash line
L'Oreal Voluminous SuperStar Mascara in Very Black
Sephora Long Lasting Kohl Pencil ($10) Infinite Beige (waterline)

For my face I used the Rimmel Stay Matte Foundation in 201 Classic Beige
I also used the NYX Eyebrow Gel in Blonde for my brows.

That is it! I didn't so insane with the makeup or foundation like usual. Which, was nice..I do wish I would have set the foundation though because holy. bloody. heck. This settles into EVERY BLOODY LINE and just everything and it liked to stick and separate. It's just....a mess on my skin really so I am not a huge fan of this foundation. It's too thick in my opinion anyways. But it does serve it's purposes for pictures though I guess. :)

I hope that you all liked this look! I actually had a lot of fun creating it and remembering how I had no idea what my Color Guard Instructor was talking about when she said smoky eye and winged liner! Oh how far I have come!

Best,
Autumn

Worth Co Beauty - Review #MyWorthMovement

Products Provided For Free For Review

You know that moment when you buy coffee because it's going to be a long night and you have so much to do and you know you're not going to be able to get any sleep? So you pour yourself a nice 16-24 ounce cup of refreshing pumpkin spice iced coffee stuff that you can buy in the stores.... Then it dawns on you after you drink half of the drink that it's freaking ESPRESSO and NOT COFFEE. Guys, I think I can hear colors. IT. IS. SHINY.


Wow, Okay. That was a wee bit crazy, wasn't it?

First off before I even start reviewing anything I want to say that I just LOVE their brand message.

Celebrating The Worth of Every Woman One Product At A Time. 

If you want to read their entire statement, you can check out their Statement of Worth page HERE

I know the a product can't be measured only by what the brands message is. I will say that once I read through their website I did have some pretty high expectations for their products. Worth Co. does lip care, bath and body, candles as well as tubes which is a lip butter as well as a lip scrub. Their products range from $9.50 to $30 for the tube.

They have a whole bunch of different scents and each one has it's own name.
100% Original - Sweet Almond + Honey + Oats
Forward - Mint + Berry
Brave - Peaches + Coconut
Soul Beautiful - Verbena + Vanilla
Every Day - Lemongrass + Ginger
One of A Kind - Rose + Citrus

Forward Body Whip - $21

At first, I wasn't sure what to think about this. I wasn't sure if I was going to like it because I had products similar in the past that were extremely greasy feeling on the skin. Let me just say, this is lovely on the skin! It starts to instantly melt into the skin and it feels luscious.  I love that this is not greasy at all.

I have pretty dry elbows, to the point that they hurt and this is the only thing that I've found that will actually help my desert elbows. I've also used this on my dry feet and it helps quite a bit.

The one way that I love using this is right as I get out of the shower, before I dry off I will apply this all over my body and I let it soak in and oh my goodness! Baby soft skin! It's quite lovely.

Scent wise, I am so in love with this scent! I don't know what it is about this but it makes me very happy. It's just something about the mint and the berries that reminds me of happy times. I can't place exactly what it makes me think of, but it's such an amazing scent. Definitely a favorite!


100% Original Body Scrub - $22 

Body scrubs are not something that I usually go for. I don't know why, but they're usually so abrasive on my skin that I tend to just avoid them. The brown sugar crystals and the jojoba beads that are in this are extremely gentle on the skin. It gets off all of the dead skin and it also moisturises your skin at the same time! It is a double whammy because of all of the yummy stuff that is in this.

This probably is the scent that I am attracted to the most. I don't know what it is about Sweet Almond Oil, or just almond oil in general but it is something that I love deeply. Slap this baby into a perfume and I will wear it for life! 

100% Original Lip Scrub - $16 

Lip scrubs are something that I'm typically not familiar with because I try and keep my lips from getting chapped. Luckily for me, this came at the perfect time because I had just gotten over being sick and my lips were awful. This is a sugar based scrub and the one thing that I greatly enjoy and appreciate with this scrub is that it has just enough abrasiveness to slosh off all of the dead skin on your lips, but it extremely gentle. It also is very moisturizing, so you don't really need to apply a heavy lip balm after using this. 

The scent of this is different then the body scrub, even though they are from the same scent line. I really couldn't figure out the scent of this at first. I sat there just smelling this and trying to figure out what the heck the smell was. It's one of those familiar scents, but you just can't place it. Then it finally came to me! It's honey! You know...from the whole sweet almond, honey, oats dealio? I don't know why it didn't click at first! This doesn't smell like your run of the mill grocery store honey though, at least not to me. Years ago we were gifted this GIANT tub of natural honey that came from South America that had a huge piece of honey comb in it and it was thick, dark and luscious. THAT is exactly what it smells like.


All in all my expectations were greatly exceeded with all three products from Worth Co.! They are all luscious and amazing. I'm honestly really surprised with these, the last time I tried to use body care items they were just purely awful. These though have renewed my spirits in wanting to go back out and try more products! I definitely want to try out their Lip Rubs, because we all know how obsessed with lip balms that I am! Their candles are definitely worth checking out also!

Worth Co. is definitely a 10/10 company with their products and packaging. I mean, you can't get any cuter than that! Check out their website as well as all of their other links!

NYX Cosmetics Prismatic Eye Shadows - Fireball & Liquid Gold

Purchased Myself

Why, howdy doody there! ....don't even ask. I have no idea.

Let's listen to Gwen Stefani's Rich Girl and get this party started!

A few weeks ago I was at Ulta and I spotted these new shadows by NYX and I had talked myself out of wanting them because I "just didn't need anymore shadows in my life". Which, we all know is a downright lie. Am I right?  I literally had not heard a single thing about these new shadows or anything so I just went home, sad and regretting that I didn't pick them up when I had the chance. 

Cue a few weeks later, I stop by the Ulta in Citrus Park and I decided to snag the two I'm going to show you in this post! I wanted a couple other ones but unfortunately they were all sold out. Bummer, but I'm fine with these two for now! 

NYX doesn't really give a description for the Prismatic Shadows besides calling them Metallic, which I fully support. They are metallic. 

Fireball

This shadow is an orange based red. I get where the Fireball name came from because it definitely does remind me of a fire!

Liquid Gold

Liquid Gold is one of those shadows that you just can't pass up, especially if you have blue eyes. Golds look amazing when paired with blue eyes and this is no exception! This is a yellow gold shade that definitely looks like you've got liquid gold on your eyes!

All in all, I am impressed with the quality, pigmentation and the lasting ability of these shadows. I definitely want to get more...actually I want the entire collection. NYX, hit me up! (kidding....kind of) :P  

The shadows retail for $5.99 and can be found at Ulta and on Nyx's website.

NYX is a cruelty free brand that does NOT test on animals.

Choose Friendly Products For Your Mouth With Hello!

Contains Press Sample and products purchased with my own money

Hello is a company that I stumbled upon in Walgreens one day. I wasn't looking for a mouthwash, but I'm worry their packaging sold me 100%. I'm a sucker for packaging and let me just say, this company has won myself, my Niece and my Nephew over 100%.

I'm going to be talking about a few different products in this post, so I'm sorry that it's going to be long! #sorrynotsorry

Peach Mango Mint Toothpaste provided for free $4.49

At first I was afraid to try this, partly because I was NOT sure how peach, mango and mint would taste together. I was really afraid that was flavor was going to be more overpowering then another flavor or that it would just taste like a whole lotta grossness. Even though I was afraid to try this because of the taste I went and used it the day that it arrived in the mail. Boy oh boy was I surprised! This is actually really pleasant! The flavors mix really well together and the mint isn't overpowering at all, that is usually one of my biggest issues when it comes to toothpaste is that it's too minty for me. You get a little hint of each flavor and the amount of mint in this is just right so it's a pleasant part of my morning routine now! Also, Chris likes this toothpaste a LOT (my nephew) and he doesn't like mint at all, so that is saying something!

Bubblegum Kids Toothpaste purchased myself  $3.99

I bought this purely for Cloe because it was pink. I will say that right up front. She is pink crazy so she HAD to have this toothpaste when she saw it. She absolutely loves this toothpaste and goes a wee bit crazy if she can't find it. She's even tried to take it home with her, which makes me chuckle a little bit. Personally I haven't tried this toothpaste so I'm just going on the review of a 3 year old and a 6 year old. Chris, he wasn't a fan of this toothpaste and I'm not sure why, he prefer the peach mango mint. He does want me to go and buy him a toothpaste so he can have his own. I've been meaning too, but my only Target that stocks the toothpastes is a pretty far drive. One day I'll get back up there again! Maybe I'll stop on the way home from Tampa when I go tomorrow! :P

One thing I want to mention and make note of right here. The reason I reviewed these two together, is NOT because they are both toothpastes. This kids toothpaste is a fluoride toothpaste. The formula and percentages and what not is exactly the same as the adult toothpaste. Hello just made the kids versions of the toothpastes flavored more to kids liking. Just make sure, that if you are to buy this for your children, they are old enough to know now to swallow toothpaste. We don't need them getting sick!

Pink Grapefruit Mouthwash purchased myself  $5.99

This product right here is what really started my obsession with the brand. I found this (not this bottle) a couple years ago at Walgreens on clearance and fell in love with it! I haven't ventured into the other flavors that they make because I love pink grapefruit. I know grapefruit and mint aren't a common marriage of flavors...or at least it isn't common to me but this just... it goes together. I like that this isn't insanely overpowering. It doesn't burn your mouth because it's made without alcohol, dyes and artificial sweeteners, So yay about that!

Breath Spray Mojito Mint purchased myself  $3.79 

Source: Walgreens

I forgot to take a picture of this like a dope because it lives in my purse. Out of all of the products, this is probably my least used product because I use it when I feel that I need it, which is why it lives in my purse.  This is free from alcohol, dyes, artificial sweeteners and propellants. This is kind of shocking when your first spray it into your mouth because it's a strong taste but that's okay! It makes your breath smell and mouth taste lovely! So yay! Also, the packaging is super cute.

Source: Hello

They are so cute and the top of it kind of looks like a tooth, which might be the point but come on! So cute! You twist the color part and you can open and close the breath spray so it doesn't spray inside of your bag. 

Last I'm going to talk about their newest product!

Toothbrush in Orange (also available in green and blue) provided for free $2.99

This is a very minimalistic toothbrush and you know what, I dig it. I've used some expensive toothbrushes in the past and I have to say, this is my favorite. The bristles are soft and they just feel...nice on your teeth. They aren't stiff, scratchy or uncomfortable on the teeth or gums. The toothbrush I had before this was just awful and it was three times the price of this.

This bristles on this brush on pretty dang durable as well. It looks like it's brand new out of the package but in reality I've been using this for two or three months. Snap! It's light and easy to handle when your brushing your teeth.


I LOVE all of Hello's products and I can't wait to try a new flavor (or all) of toothpaste! I definitely recommend trying all of their products. I just love this entire brand.

LashEm Extensions In A Bottle

Cruelty Free | PR | BrandBacker

Hello Everyone!

I hope you all are doing well! Today I have a review of LashEm Extensions In A Bottle for you! I never was a huge fiber mascara person because I had tried some really cruddy ones in the past when they were first SUPER popular, but I wanted to give this one a chance because I've heard some great things about LashEm!

I've got I would say medium length lashes, so I'm always looking for something to make them look longer. Who isn't though?! My lashes also like to be stick straight and I have the worst time trying to get them to stay curled, even using a waterproof mascara to set them doesn't help a lot of the time.

This is what LashEm says

"Get the long lashes you want – in two quick steps.
The bonding fibers and primer in these brush-on extensions attach to your lashes to create a fuller and more dramatic look. Volumizing mascara formula contains lash enhancing serum, resulting in healthier, stronger lashes through continued use. "

As you can see in the above picture, the mascara tube is dual ended. One end contains the fibers and the other end contains the actual mascara. The Application is easy you apply the mascara, fibers then another coat of mascara to seal the fibers in. That's pretty standard when it comes to fiber mascaras.

Brush wise as you can see in the picture above and below, the want itself is a standard mascara wand. Don't be discouraged by that, its more about the product then it is about the applicator anyways. The mascara portion is not too wet but not too dry, it's right in the middle. I prefer dry mascaras because they don't transfer onto the lid and all of that stuff us makeup lovers encounter with wet mascaras. HOWEVER, I am in love with the formula of this. It's dry enough to be easy to apply but wet enough to give your lashes a pretty decent amount of product with the least amount of effort. Now, keep in mind this is NOT waterproof or water-resistant. So don't wear this in the pool, or in the rain. I'm sure if you topped it off with a waterproof mascara you'd be fine though!

The fiber portion of the mascara is interesting. When I was first trying this out I was not able to get the fibers to actually stick to my lashes. I was pretty discouraged until I realized that it was all user error. After playing around with this mascara, I realized that the mascara itself needs to dry for a few seconds (10-15seconds) to get the maximum amount of fibers sticking to the lashes. I really do like the fibers. I like the fact that they're wet, I've seen some fiber mascaras where the fibers are LOOSE and messy. This in my personal opinion is perfect. Very easy to apply.

In the picture set below, I've shown you the application process.
1) Plain uncurled lashes
2) Curled Lashes
3) 1st application of the mascara
4) 1 application of the Fibers
5) 2nd application of mascara.

I'm sorry about the funky angle of the last picture, I know it doesn't look like there are a lot of fibers on my lashes, this was taken when I didn't let the mascara set for those few seconds.  In the picture below you can see my lashes in their full glory. I know they don't look insanely impressive in the picture but in real life, the difference is amazing. This has turned into my go-to mascara that I can't see myself without!

I read some reviews where people used a hair dryer with this mascara and their other mascaras. I'm sorry maybe I'm out of the loop but WHY on this Earth would you use a hair dryer on your lashes?! I mean really now.

Now, I've been testing this for a few weeks and since LashEm is about healthier, stronger, longer lashes and all of that jazzy stuff I wanted to let you all know what I've experienced upon continued use. My lashes have gotten fuller as well as they've gotten pretty long since I've been using this. Now I don't wear makeup on the daily, maybe once a week, or when I'm working on looks for blog posts (which I don't usually wear mascara in anyways, but have been recently) My lashes actually like to hold a curl now and oddly enough have a natural curl to them as well. I'm pretty pleased with this mascara as well as I'm pretty pleased with the growth and just better health and look of my lashes themselves. I say if you have a chance to try this mascara out, go for it! It's pretty dang amazing.

Tweets Nail Polish Review (Updated(

Hello Hello!

I purchased these with my OWN money

Tweets Cosmetics is a new nail polish brand that has recently come out and at the present moment is exclusive to Walmart. My Walmart didn't have their display set up, it seriously just had the trays of nail polishes sitting on a shelf, I really wouldn't have noticed them if I weren't in the isle getting nail polish remover. That's how out of the way my Walmart has them. (shame on you Walmart. Shame)

The names of these nail polishes are all basically tweet & text shorthand. Not gonna lie, I only knew what a few of them meant. I had to go online and find their website to find out the names of the polishes! I think it might be a little helpful if what they mean was under the names. For two of them in particular. They look like they would be gorgeous jelly polishes, but that's not the case. I'll get to that in a minute though!

Own Lifting Eye Cream Review

Hello Gorgeous ladies and Handsome gents! I hope you all are doing well!!

The review I have for you today is kind of an exciting one for me! I'm really excited to share this product with you all! This was sent to me via iFabbo, which is an International Organization for beauty, fashion and lifestyle bloggers. This is a members only website and you do have to submit an application (and actually blog regularly instead of occasionally). I actually didn't even know iFabbo did this honestly. Surprise for me! But enough about that!
