Disney Villains False Lashes by Ardell SALE!!

Disney Villains False Lashes by Ardell are at Walgreen's And they are on sale from 7.99 to 5.99 

for a few days only!

I am a nut when it comes to lashes and these are amazing! Each Villain has her own set of lashes and some even have rhinestones on them perfect for any glam look especially with Halloween right around the corner.

Lets see what these villains have in store for us tonight!

Cruella De vil

She is as bad as they come! A Fashionista and a Die hard bitch. She hatee puppies or anything that has a prettier coat then the one she wears, But these lashes are all about the drama! Long and full of statements. The bottom pair features rhinestones on the outer rim perfect for a winged liner look matched with a red lip. 

Oh, the villainy!

Ursula

Now this is a villain if there ever was! Even though she was a Squid at heart, her selfish ways brought poor Ariel down to her knees! She used her sensual eyes to draw your attention away from the fact that  she was half squid and could take you down in a millisecond. These lashes are sure to get the attention of your prey.

Maleficent

For years she has defined the art of the perfect arch and with the sexiest eyes of any animated character. She was the one you loved to hate but watched her just to see what she would do next. Captivating us with her surreal beauty and cold heart, Maleficent is the way to go to show, No isn't an option. To follow in her footsteps you will have to take matters into your own hands. The faint of heart need not apply here.

Evil Queen

What would it be like to have minions at you beck and call? Answering to your every whim? She embodies deathly beauty and determined eyes, no one will get in her way.  Sensual and powerful are the two main ingredients with any of the lashes from her set. Do you have what it takes to compete with the Evil Queen?

Well my friends our journey through the Disney villains has come to an end.

First of all I want to thank Ardell for these, even though I wont wear them often is was nice to go back down memory lane, even just for a moment or two! 

I think the Squidlet and I will do a Disney Villains makeover movie night since its the perfect season for it, yay for Halloween :) 

I hope you enjoyed this as much as I did! It really took me back when I saw these for the first time. 

They took me back to when I was a girl and Going to the movies meant something. Another time and another place, but I will never forget these characters. Now I am all grown up, but I can still play!

My favorite has always been Maleficent never knew why maybe because she can turn herself into a Dragon.

Who is your favorite Disney Villain?

Thanks for listening!

Have a great day!

Eye Primer Eggsperiment!

Eye Primers. We use them to enhance the color of our shadows and give us a smooth surface to work on.

The three eye primers I have used are the three pictured here.

they all claim to do the same thing, but do they all do as they claim?




I decided to do my own experiment on these three primers using an egg, yes an egg.
I let the egg get to room temperature before I started.

In this eggsperiment I was looking for three things. Color payoff, Smoothing effect and Staying power.
In the video you will see my results enjoy!
Oh, and if you like what you see please subscribe to my YouTube channel here.

Please watch and let me know what you think. I plan on doing other experiments like this is the future Please let me know if there is any other product I should test.

Colgate Slim Soft Tooth Brush

Okay, I have to admit I was very skeptical on this tooth brush, I though, how good can a tooth brush be its just a tooth brush, right? Wrong!

Omg, this brush feels so good it like makeing love to your mouth!
And the bristles are so soft you can actually feel them getting in between teeth.
Also the bristles are so soft you can scrub your gums without worrying of any bruising or tearing.
They also included and trial size mouth wash and tooth paste.
As a trio they are great and the freshness last all day.

I am seeing a difference in teeth whitening I am a smoker and coffee drinker so its important to me to keep a bright smile and this definitely helps.

I will continues to use this brush and re-buy it when its time to renew!

I recieved the Colgate Slim Soft Tooth Brush compliments of  Influenster.com
this is a service that you sign up for and they offer free samples on all kinds or products.
I am happy I joined and happy for my new tooth brush! Thanks Infulenster and Colgate :)

sorry no pics the kids got to my box before I did LOL

Beauty and the Drugstore

Hi, everyone. I hope you are all enjoying the season so far.

I wanted to share something I experienced in Walgreen's the other day. So I walked in and made a bee line for the beauty section as I always do :). And there were these two lovely ladies that worked there named Laura and Jessica. As soon as I entered asked if I needed any help, I responded with a "no, thanks, just looking". 

I browsed around and found this funky mascara tester.

Which was cool in the fact that it lets you see what you would look like with amazing lashes.

So as I wandered up and down the beauty section there they were walking with me talking among themselves about beauty products, stuff they like and have tried themselves.

Then it started, we talked and talked for what seemed like an hour about beauty products! It was great, They helped me find my perfect shade in Foundation, concealer and a pressed powder.

After I have gathered all me goodies it was time to check out and we headed over to the beauty check stand. I punched in my dads Walgreen's number (I always use my dads number because he fills his prescriptions in and doesn't understand the point system, and I am not going telling him). And she tells me I have 3000 points! I was like, wait! I will be right back and ran down and picked up a bronzer that was 4.99 thinking I would only pay 1.99, right?

No, Laura goes to the back of the store and brings out this folder full of coupons and finds the one for the bronzer and I ended up only paying 88 cents for a full size bronzer! I was so shocked that they were so helpful and all it took was a simple conversation! She gave me other coupons too that helped lower the total.

And this got me thinking, when we are sick and aren't feeling well we talk to the pharmacist and chat with them about what they think is best for us to use. But we never talk to the lady in the beauty section.

these young ladies offered to hold coupons for me next time I am in the store.

So my point is, make friends with the beauty lady at your local drug store they can lead you to great deals and they do know what they are talking about they are in there all day and use these products themselves so they kinda know whats up. And once they heard I was a BB they got even more excited! I am so glad I have met them and will continue going back to them again.

I have included a short video on the haul and the products I picked up that night hope you enjoy!

Have you had a drug store beauty experience like this?

I would love to hear it.

Thanks for listening and watching!

Have a great day :)

Counterfeit Beauty Products

Well, Ladies and Gents, in this post we will be putting brains before beauty.

This has been something that has been on my mind for sometime now and its been bugging me.
How would you feel if someone anyone re-posted your post on their blog passing themselves off as the author? Not good, Right?

Well this has been known to happen. And it is happening more often now then ever before in the Makeup and Beauty industry.

Now, I am all for a good dupe. A Dupe is not a counterfeit.

Dupe :  duplicate
Counterfeit: made to look like an exact copy of something in order to trick people

In a article I found online this is becoming a big problem.

M.A.C.com says:
"To counterfeit means to illegally imitate an item or good. Counterfeit products are often produced with the intent to take advantage of the superior value of the imitated product".


Another Article on line at  CBC Canada states the following:

"We had the [fake] M.A.C cosmetic tested at an independent laboratory and those tests came back, [and] indicated that there were higher than normal levels of different metals in these counterfeit products and were apt to have caused that allergic reaction," said Gilmore.

Most luxury brand names refuse to speak publicly about the knockoff problem. An executive with one very popular shampoo company, who refused to be named, told CBC News that counterfeit product is an important subject but that the firms don't want to go public in case they create "brand confusion."

In another case, DeJoria said a store in Florida was stocked with what looked like Paul Mitchell shampoo, but was a knockoff made with contaminated water and full of bacteria".

You can read the whole story here.

Ebay Also issues a warning about buying discontinued items titled:

Use Caution When Buying Discontinued Beauty Products

You can view this here.

Not only are they hurting people in general, but they are also hurting our most beloved brands.

So I am urging you to support the brands you love. yes it will cost extra but in the long run everyone will come out ahead and happy with the purchase.

I have seen and tried Knock off  M.A.C Products before and they do not look/feel/smell the same.

They sell them in alleys in major cities all across the US and Canada.

Thanks for listening!

Have a great day:)

If this doesnt make sense to you let me know so I can delete this post. 

I feel Like I ranted for no reason hehe:)

Beauty Battle Blog Vs. Vlog It's on!

Okay, So I Have decided to do a little experiment Using my blog and my YouTube channel which I guess is called a Vlog. I post to both of them often and put as much effort into both equally. So What I want to find out if which of the two get more of a  response/feedback/comments/follows/subscriptions. I post the results daily up on my personal Vlog. The reason why I am posting it here is to get you guys involved. I want to let you guys know what I am doing and also letting you know that any new followers/subscribers I gain will be mentioned on the personal Vlog as well as like/shares and what not. If there is anything I am leaving out of this experiment Please let me know.

My YouTube Beauty Channel is here

Name a beauty Routine that you rarely do?
Who said I have a routine in the first place? sorry but I don't. I just kinda wing it.

Is washing your makeup brushes something you do regularly?
I do it like every two weeks deep cleaning. I kinda clean them every other day with the Sephora daily cleaner it comes in a spray bottle and I just wipe them clean on the surface.

How long will you last with chipped nail varnish?
When I have nails not long maybe a day or so depends on whats going on really. If I am painting or remodeling then I will wait until the project it done. But right now I have no nails, i'm a biter.

How long do you put off buying or replacing a beauty or nail product even if you need it?
I don't, if I am running low on something I replace it before its completely gone.

What is your worst beauty habit?
I smoke. I know this is bad for my skin. But if i don't smoke I will have no skin to worry about.
I don't ever get enough sleep, late nights early mornings, coffee. You should have asked what I do right because this can go on forever hehe :)

Name something non beauty related that you put off all the time.
cooking! I love cooking it the kitchen afterwards that I hate doing. When I had a house keeper She would help after dinner now that she is gone and so has the cooking!

When going out somewhere, do you leave getting ready until the last minute or not?
No way. If I am not ready we aren't going lol! I am bad so I give myself time and plan ahead.

Can you commit to a spending ban?
Nope.

How organized are your makeup and nail polish collections?
I have everything in it own tubs separated  by face, eyes, lips, eye liners, lip pencils etc..

What is the longest time that you have went without writing a blog post?
2-3 days I guess.

Okay that was awkward. Now for The beauty bloggers I tag:
