Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit


Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit

Ever tried applying eyelashes but became frustrated when they didn’t position correctly? Only to remove them and start over? Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit provides everything you need for amazing lashes instantly! Each kit includes 1 pair of Eyelashes, 1 3g Adhesive and 1 PRO Lash Applicator. The new PRO Lash Applicator allows for a flawless application every time! Kiss lashes come in a variety of styles that are perfect for everything from day wear to a formal evening event. 

How to use: 
Simply apply glue to the lash band and let set for 30-60 seconds for adhesive to become slightly clear and tacky. Using the PRO Lash Applicator, apply lashes along the natural lash line. Hold, allowing adhesive to dry completely. Do the same to the second eyelash. Both lashes have a perfect fit!

Where can I purchase this:
Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit retails for $4.99 and are available at Walgreens stores nationwide. For more information and how-to videos, visit everezlashes.com

My Thoughts/Overall:
Love this starter kit. I'm actually more in love with the glue and the lash applicator than the lashes. I've been using the back of my tweezer or a cotton swab to apply the lash glue onto the lash band. Now that this glue has an applicator it makes applying glue easier. The glue gets tacky within seconds and dries on clear.
Love the lash applicator. The way the applicator is made, shaped just like an eyelash makes gripping and applying the lash easier.
The lashes are gorgeous and can be worn for day or night. They are so full, whispy and absolutely beautiful. I did however have to trim them to fit.

This kit is perfect for anyone, beginner or PRO. Kit includes everything to have beautiful lashes and makes applying lashes with ease. And for it's price, total bargain!


Overall, great kit and beautiful lashes. They lasted all day with no re-applying glue and I've gotten many compliments. Wish these were my real lashes.

My Thoughts/Overall: 
I have thick, long, layered hair and this hair cream makes my hair super soft and feels very light weigh, which my hair tends to feel weighed down. I apply a small amount onto the palm of my hand ( a little goes a long way), work it into my hair, then comb through (a great detangler too) and then I either blow dry or air dry my hair. After applying the hair cream my hair stays controled; frizz-free, shiny and smooth straight. It also smells divine; very tropical. Who wouldn't want there hair smelling like coconuts and the tropics...

Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin


Steps:
1. Gather your hair at the nape of your neck

2. Twist your hair into a tight bun and tuck in the ends
3. Spin one pin in from the top and the other from the base, taking care not to interlock pins.


Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin

 The Spin Pin does the work of 20 bobby pins! Easily achieve chic updo styles; simply twirl your hair up and spin the Spin Pins in for a perfect top knot, undone bun and side bun!
 

Where can I purchase this:
Can be found at Walmart, Target, CVS, Walgreen’s for $7.29
More information about Goody products can be found at Goody.com 

My Thoughts/Overall: 
 I have long, thick, layered hair and I always find myself never knowing what to do with my hair. I usually style it into a bun or pony tail because it's simple and easy.
The spin pin idea is genius. It makes pinning my hair into a bun super easy. I literally just twist the pins into my bun and it secures with ease. No need for a hair brush, hairspray or bobby bins. How awesome is that! 
However, I do recommend using these when you have dirty or textured hair. I find that if you have clean hair it doesn't hold up well without some kind styling product.
Overall, a really great product for simple up-dos and not bad of a price considering the usage of this being used almost everyday. It looks to be made of good quality and I find it doesn't damage my hair after using it a full day and overnight.

My Thoughts/Overall:
I love Slatkin & Co. candles, by far the best. I got Pumpkin Cupcake: a spiced pumpkin cupcake with rich buttercream and frosted ginger. It's the perfect scent for fall, it smells so delish; its like your at a bakery/coffee shop drinking a spiced pumpkin latte with a freshly baked pumpkin cupcake with buttercream frosting... YUMMY!
The minis are so adorable and don't take up much space. Despite there mini size they pack a punch with such a aromatic fragrance that can fill up any room for hours. Very affordable and even better when they have special deals like; 2 for $5.

NYC IndividualEyes Custom Compact Review

NYC IndividualEyes Custom Compact

NYC New York Color's all-in-one compact gives you everything you need for a complete eye look: primer, illuminator, applicator and complementing shadows. With four vibrant colors designed for your eye color, you can create a look as individual as you are! 

Where can I purchase this: 
Can be purchased at newyorkcolor.com for $4.99

My thoughts/overall:
Pretty impressed in the quality and pigmentation of the eye shadows in the 938 Urban Square for Brown Eyes compact. I've found the lightest and darkest shade in the compact to be the most pigmented and easy to apply. Where I've found the other two shades required more application for it to show on my skintone.
The packaging is very simple and compact. Perfect for throwing into my makeup bag or purse. I like that this compact has everything you'll need for your eyes besides eyeliner. Although, the only thing that is missing in this compact is a mirror.
You get four amazing eye shadows (highlighter, all over lid color and 2 crease/contour shades), a primer/base and a illuminator which works great as a base as well. I find that the eye shadows are much more vibrant on top of the primer/base.
Overall, the eye shadows are very pretty, smudge-proof (with or without primer/base), glides on easily, no fall outs, blendable and works well with my brown eyes. Everything is in one compact, which is great for creating a day or night look.
