Pur Minerals Pressed Mineral Makeup 4-in-1
I used this mineral makeup in the past and it does go on nice but the coverage isn't there and it doesn't last very long. I do love their chisel brush though.... I would definitely not purchase this one again.

Cover FX Natural Finish Oil Free Foundation
I've used this foundation in the past also, and I did really like it. You can build coverage with this and you don't look like you've put on a ton of makeup. It's super light and feels great going on. Awesome!

I LOVE this foundation! I have used all of CoverFX's foundation formulations but this one is awesome right now for me because of the summer... I get more coverage with this powder foundation than I have with any other line. It's awesome because of the minerals and you can build coverage without your face looking chalky. Even after being in a sweltering car (no A/C) I go to touch up and I don't have to because it really does wear all day. Best. Powder. Ever. -

Worst. Detangler. Ever.
Seriously... This one was not good at all. It is supposed to detangle even the tightest curls, and my hair is incredibly thick and pretty curly. I sprayed and sprayed and sprayed this in my hair and I couldn't even run my fingers through it, let alone a brush. I used a good portion of the tiny 100ml bottle that cost me $10 and nothing!!
I actually use and LOVE the Curl Keeper from the same brand so I trusted that they would know what they're doing in terms of a detangler! The L'Oreal Kids detangler works WAY better than this stuff and I've got it as cheap as $1.99 on sale. I would never buy this stuff again!

I won this body lotion in ChickAdvisor's "Share the Love" contest and I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with this lotion.... If anyone has ever used Chocolate scented anything before it almost has a really strong artificial cocoa smell but this lotion smells SOOOO GOOD!! It literally smells good enough to eat!! Even my hubby commented on how amazing I smelled after I put some on. It moisturizes well too! When I run out, I know I'm going to buy some more! =) -
Clearprep FX Matte Foundation Primer and Anti-Acne Treatment
This primer is amazing! It works well to prepare my face for foundation and it is an amazing treatment for occasional blemishes. I also use it as a spot treatment at night because it is an anti-acne treatment too! Love this product! =)

I couldn't believe the quality of this little guy!!! I love that it's in a small bottle, because I don't know that I've EVER gone through an entire bottle of polish! lol ~ They have some nice colours and you cannot go wrong with the price! I got these at $1.35 EACH! They were on sale at SDM. I don't feel so bad spending $8 on 4 polishes as opposed to spending $8 on 1 polish. I don't know if I'll ever buy anything else! =) -

I loved the idea of this product! I purchased the Emerald colour and I thought it would be the same colour as the box. First of all, it's super messy to use, so make sure you don't have kids or anything around! It doesn't dry the same colour as the loose glitter so I was kinda disappointed about that. I wasn't happy with the overall look of my nails when it was done, so I tried to put a clear coat over it... DO NOT do this! It makes it look 100x worse!!!
I will give this a shot again, but I won't use it for my whole nail. I'll do it on the tips on my nails or as an effect with additional polish. =)

STAY AWAY FROM THESE PEOPLE!!! I purchased one of those group deals things (DealFind) to get my lashes done for my wedding in Cuba for this salon. The deal was $39 for a full set of extensions and my mom and I wanted to get them together. Before we purchased them, my mom called the salon to make sure they were going to have appointments in time before we left for Cuba. (We purchased them at the end of February and we were leaving to Cuba April 3rd) ~
They told my mom that they had booked up only until March 6th. The next day, when I was calling to book the appointments the lady (I think her name was Trisha?) who does the lashes asked me if it was for anything special so I mentioned it was for my wedding that we were leaving for April 3rd... HUGE mistake. She pushed me and pushed me to get the 'upgraded bridal set of lashes' and I kept telling her no, I didn't want the upgraded set (it would have been an extra $100) and all I could afford was the $40 that I paid for the group deal.
She kept telling me that I had to get the bridal set, because it was my wedding, and I needed to treat myself and blah blah blah and she obviously didn't care about the fact that I said I couldn't afford anything more than what I had already paid. She seemed annoyed that I kept telling her that I only wanted the deal, nothing more. (I get people trying to upsell and that the deal sites are mainly just to get traffic in the door, but geez when I say no, leave it alone)
She finally accepted that I wasn't going to budge about 'upgrading' so then I asked her if we could come in the last week of March. She said that all of their appointments were booked up until April 6th. (Fully knowing I was already going to be in Cuba) and after I reminded her that we were leaving April 3rd, she said "Aw, that's too bad... The only way you're going to get your lashes done on time is if you pay for the upgraded set and you have a Master Technician do it. She has an opening for you and your mom in the last week of March." I actually couldn't believe what I was hearing. She said that regular technicians do the group deal and master technicians do the bridal sets. I reiterated that I couldn't afford to do the bridal set and she said "Well then you won't have them done on time, will you?"
I finally agreed to do it, just to hold the spot (In the back of my mind I was already writing my email to DealFind) and I got off the phone. I wrote the email to them explaining what happened (and by the way DealFind's customer service was amazing!) They got back to me and told me that this was not their first complaint with this vendor, and they would have to speak to the vendor themselves first before they issued us a refund. They issued it no problem.
That same day I received a call from Trisha but I couldn't answer it, so they called my mother and her exact words were; "You and your daughter will never be welcome in my salon ever. Don't you dare step foot near us ever again." and hung up.
The level of professionalism with these people is non-existent and for this lady to 'run her business' this way is absolutely despicable. I don't know how they get away with it. Long story short... Stay away from this salon. This was just for eyelash extensions... I'd hate to see what happens to your bill and your hair if you aren't happy with your stylist.

I received this lip balm in a grab bag from a charity event and I LOVE it!! I really hope I can find who sells it because I want more!! These lip balms all have the same flavours as their Glaceau Vitamin Water so I thought that was pretty cool. I know there is lots of Vitamin E and there's an SPF of 20, so that's a huge benefit. I do not like lemonade so I thought I was going to hate this flavour, but I loved it. It's not overpowering by any means. It also doesn't feel waxy on your lips. It moisturizes them without the heaviness. I wore it every single day. I would even put it under my lipstick. As I was looking for the website for them, I found that they are made by LipSmackers. I was SHOCKED that they are the same people who make all the novelty lip balms because those ones taste horrible and I won't use them past the first couple days. Hopefully I'll be able to find my 'Schtick again in a Walmart or drugstore... They both have BonneBell products!
The flavour that I got was the Lemonade
