I purchased a couple of them after I received a sample in my Ipsy bag a little while ago. These are the Urban Decay Revolution High Gloss Lipglosses. I bought the shades Bittersweet and Scandal. <br />

Bittersweet (shown above) is a beautiful purple shade that is pretty bold (at least for me anyway). <br />
<br />

Scandal (shown above) is a beautiful bright pink and is so perfect for summer for me. <br />
<br />
I love these lipglosses, they are so comfortable to wear. They have an amazing staying power that I am really blown away with. I never expected them to last as long as they do, especially for a gloss. I can confidently say that I have easily 6 hours of wear without requiring any touch-ups. At around hour 7 I did notice that it was just starting to show some wear but to me that's amazing for a gloss. It isn't sticky or tacky on your lips. It does feel thicker on but in no way did it feel sticky or tacky to me, very comfortable to wear. I also noticed that it did not dry my lips out either, it was very moisturizing on my lips. The shades are very pigmented and I really love that!<br />
<br />
The applicator is a plush silicone paddle applicator that is a bit rounded at the tip to let you have great control for application. The tube is a clear barrel so that you can clearly see the shade inside. The label that lists the color name is usually on the bottom of the tube but since these tubes are the usual round tubes it is towards the bottom of the barrel on the backside of the tube. The tube shape is a kind of flattened oval shape. The tube holds 0.17fl/oz of gloss. Urban Decay's site says that they contain their "Pigment Infusion System™ gives the formula its super creamy texture, insane pigmentation and superior color dispersion. It’s also laced with Hilurlip™, which defines and hydrates lips while making them look plumper and fuller". I feel that the best way to get long lasting wear without it feathering is to layer the gloss over the Urban Decay Ultimate Ozone Primer Pencil, this is a clear pencil that you can line and fill in your lips with to prime them for the gloss and extend your wear time. <br />
<br />
The Revolution High Gloss Lipglosses are available in a wide arrange of 14 different shades. They retail for $22. These are available at a multitude of places that Urban Decay products are sold such as Ulta, Sephora, Macy's, and the Urban Decay <a href="http://www.urbandecay.com/">site</a>. <br />

<span style="font-family: Arial;">Here is the other half of Zoya's Summer 2015 Collections. This is the Paradise Sun collection and this one is some beautiful metallics! I love these new summer colors!!!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; letter-spacing: -0.1pt;">Fully saturated with a gorgeous micronized metallic sheen, these shimmering</span><span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif";"> beauties are much like sunshine sparkling on<span style="letter-spacing: 0.3pt;">water. Meant to be used as an independent color, these shades feature a</span>full-coverage, densely pigmented formula. </span><br />

I like a good white but I am really not sure of how I like the metallic white. It might take me a little getting used to but overall I was pleased with the performance of this one. </span><br />

I had heard from other bloggers that the label on this one was misspelled so I was curious to see if mine was too. When I got my package and I looked, sure enough the label is misspelled but this one is called Aphrodite. Again, my camera didn't cooperate with the pictures for this one but it is more red in person. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I had no issues with any of these in this collection. The only one that went on a little streaky was Genesis but I think that was just because it was a white. Once I put the second coat on it was all good!! I used 2 coats for all of these and pictures were all taken indoors with artificial lighting.</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Overall I am very pleased with the performance of all of these in this collection. They had a great formula and all went on pretty smoothly, they weren't thick or goopy. I did not use a topcoat on any of these for my swatch pictures. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are available at Zoya.com and retail for $9 each. You should be able to get them at select salons and Ulta stores in the near future.</span><br />

A green that is more muted than lime and surprisingly wearable! This is one that I wasn't real sure on because it is such a different green but I do like it more than I thought I would. I would describe it more like a dusty lime green than a tropical green. For some reason when I hear tropical green I just think bright. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This part of the Summer 2015 collections is my favorite. Usually I am all about the metallics but these ones this year really blew me away. I had no issues with any of these, the formula was amazing and they weren't thick or goopy at all. Some of these I could have gotten by with just one coat because they are so full coverage but I used 2 coats anyway. I used 2 coats on all of these and the pictures were all taken indoors with artificial lighting. All of these are so shiny without a topcoat (Which is how I showed them all here) so you could go without but I always add a topcoat for protection and to try to prolong my wear of my mani. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are available on Zoya.com and they retail for $9 each. I believe in the near future that you will be able to purchase them in select salons and Ulta stores.</span> <br />

Today I am going to share with you what I received in my Ipsy Glam Bag for the month of May. This month's theme is Jetsetter and the bags are from Breakups to Makeup. <br />
<br />
For those of you who are not real familiar with Ipsy here's a little breakdown of what it is...Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription that you sign up for. It costs $10 a month and they bill you on the first of the month every month. Shipping usually starts around the middle of the month and they start giving out little sneak peeks of what is all going to be in the bags for the month. They start the sneak peeks around the first of the month and you can see those on their Facebook and Instagram pages. Right around the 10th or 12th of the month they open up your "Glam Room" and it will show you what you will be getting in your bag. You get roughly 5 products in your bags and the items they choose for you are somewhat based on the beauty quiz you take when you sign up. Each product is usually a deluxe sized sample and at least one of the items is full sized. You can re-take the quiz at any time if you are not satisfied with the types of products you are getting. Your products are packed inside a cute little make-up bag that is designed for the theme for the month. If you are interested in signing up I will give you my link <a href="http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hhmbs5tbtvw01mlw" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0033;">here.</span></a> Check out this link for more information and to sign up. <br />
<br />
As always included with your bag is a little card with the theme on it and either has more information about the theme, the Ipsy beauty vloggers, or inspirational quotes. This month the theme is Jetsetter and the bag is so cute. It is a canvas bag with the signature Ipsy zipper pull and I love the print on it..."Contents: My Life" which is what most women carry in their makeup bags, lol!<br />

The first item I got in my bag this month is probably my favorite out of all of it. I received the <strong>Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on Lip Pencil + BONUS Revolution High Color Lipgloss</strong>. This liner is a long lasting waterproof liner that glides on smoothly to prime and define your lips for a long lasting lip color and clean lines. I have been wanting this pencil for quite some time and now I have a deluxe sample of it to try out. Also included with the pencil were 2 little blister packs of the new Revolution High Color Lipglosses in the shades Bittersweet and Failbait for us to try out. I had heard these were coming out and I was so excited to try them out first. I will say that I loved the lipgloss samples so much that I went out and bought some of them at Ulta (I'll have a post up on those soon). <br />

The next item I got was the<strong> Chella Eyebrow Color Pencil</strong> in the shade Tantalizing Taupe. I have not tried this one out yet but I will try it soon, lately I've been using tinted brow get on my brows but I really want to see how this works for my brows. The pencil seemed to glide smoothly and have a creamy consistency. It is a mechanical pencil which I love because sometimes I hate sharpening wooden pencils, the tips usually break off or crumble so mechanical is always nice to have. This was a full sized product. <br />

Then 3rd item I got was the <strong>Peter Lamas Detoxifying Citrus C Facial Cleanser</strong>. I have tried this once so far and I was pleased with the way it cleansed my skin. Plus since I have sensitive skin I was worried that my skin would react badly to it but I had no reaction at all and it left my skin feeling soft, smooth, and clean. It did not have a harsh scent so that was nice too. This has a purifying blend of Chamomile, Coconut, and Alba Bark combined to lock in moisture. It is 100% Vegan, paraben-free, and sulfate-free. <br />

The 4th item I received was the <strong>Luxie Beauty Rose Gold Tapered Blending Eye Brush 205</strong>. I love this brush, it's so soft and pretty. I got another brush in my Ipsy bag from this company a couple months ago, it was an angled powder brush or something for your face and I absolutely love it so when I seen I was getting this one I was excited. This brush is 100% Animal Cruelty Free and it is made with high quality synthetic hair bristles that are super soft. It is also coated with a revolutionary antibacterial solution for minimal brush cleaning. I have used this brush a little and I am in love with it!!<br />

The last item I got was the <strong>CoTZ Face Natural SPF 40</strong>. I have not tried this out yet so I can't say how it feels on, how well it works, or if it has a good scent or not. It is a weightless formula that will leave your skin feeling silky, smooth, and non-greasy. It is 100% free of oils, chimical sunscreens, preservatives, fragrances, oils, parabens, PABA, gluten, and Phythalates. Some people say because it is tinted and has a matte finish that it works well under your makeup and could be used like a primer. I just haven't tried it out yet so I can't comment on my opinions on all that yet. <br />
<br />
Overall I love this bag and everything I got in it. I really am blown aways most months on the quality of the products that we get in our bags for as little as $10!! It is a nice little treat to myself every month!!<br />

Today I have some Spring Floral Nail art that I did using the Zoya Spring 2015 Delights Collection. I only did an accent nail for the nail art because I wasn't sure how I was going to like when it was finished.<br />
<br />
I started out with a base coat of my Sally Hansen nail strengthener and then I added 2 coats of Zoya Eden on all my fingers except my ring fingers. <br />
<br />
For this floral nail art I wanted it to be negative space (meaning that you don't completely cover the nail with color and you leave some of your natural nail peek through). I took my dotting tools and starting dotting different sized flowers on my nail using Zoya Eden (pink) and Zoya Rayne (metallic blue) for the flowers and then for the centers of the flowers I used Zoya Trixie. I also added some random dots in those same colors throughout the nail as well. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Once it was all dried I added my topcoat of Out The Door to all of my nails and let them dry. This is also a really easy mani to recreate and you don't necessarily have dotting tools to create the dots and flowers. <br />
<br />
All these Zoya shades are available on Zoya's <a href="http://www.zoya.com/">site</a> and retail for $9 each. You can also find Zoya polishes at select salons and Ulta stores. <br />

Today I have a cute little mani that I did not long ago on myself and my sister. This is a really simple mani to create and you don't even need to have some dotting tools to do it. You can use a few things that you may have lying around your house to create the dots, you could use a bobby pin, the tip of a pencil, or the end of one of those stick pins that have the pearl ball on the end for sewing. <br />
<br />
For these I put down our base coats (I honestly can't remember what I used for the base coats but I think it was either my Sally Hansen nail strengthener or Zoya Anchor). Once the base coats were dry I put on 2 coats of Zoya Willa from the Holiday 2014 Wishes Collection. I love this because it is such a beautiful black cream.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaIJy6PEGd6mGVpffmfkx25x4oWCgcxIxJkYqeBD-TDqxUEh7k1RSPlEkdpiYCMn6n0vfHwvGb4s37KGMS2ioRYVcFp0t9h_9Td6I3HeDo2cGOhVjFiIiYtPHbY-gTjCihfXLduT0xBog/s640/blogger-image-484400061.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjaIJy6PEGd6mGVpffmfkx25x4oWCgcxIxJkYqeBD-TDqxUEh7k1RSPlEkdpiYCMn6n0vfHwvGb4s37KGMS2ioRYVcFp0t9h_9Td6I3HeDo2cGOhVjFiIiYtPHbY-gTjCihfXLduT0xBog/s320/blogger-image-484400061.jpg" width="240" /></a></div>
<br />
When our color Willa was dry I took my little pots of acrylic neon paints and dipped my dotting tools in the colors I wanted and placed those dots around the nails as you see here. I love using acrylic paint for my nail art because it dries fast so I don't have to wait as long to apply my topcoat and worry about smudging. <br />
<br />
For my mani I wanted to keep mine shiny so I added a topcoat of Out The Door to mine and let them dry. For my sister's I used the Sally Hansen Big Matte Topcoat to make hers a matte finish. We let our nails dry and voila!<br />
<br />
These were so fun and easy to do that I am going to try something like this again for the summer, I just haven't figured it all out yet.<br />

First off I want to thank everyone for the lovely comments when I posted that I've been MIA lately because my Dad passed away suddenly and my sisters and I have been dealing with all of those arrangements and just spending time with our family remembering him. Sorry that it's been a while since I've last posted but this time with my family was important and needed. Now on to my post for you!!<br />
<br />
Today I have an eye look I created with a ColourPop Super Shock Shadow Quad that I recently purchased. This is a foursome created by the super fabulous <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/shaaanxo" target="_blank">Shaaanxo</a>. The perfect bundle of shades that allow you to create a multitude of looks! I purchased this myself and I am so glad I did. These shadows are amazing!! I am becoming obsessed with these ColourPop shadows. Colourpop shadows are cruelty free, bunny approved, and all but 5 of them are vegan. These shadows only cost $5 each!! That's an amazing price for a product this good. <br />
<br />
This first thing I did to create this look is I primed my lids with my Hard Candy Eyes The Limit eye primer. Then I took Selfie, which is a mid toned peachy brown in a matte finish, and a crease brush and put that into my crease for a transition shade.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwyDmRPrzpnzWYgpxGJtnzJWvgQETDSBtV_eGb-dg9ig1Q0XZlJlCgRF-djz06WNO5Jm5Ea21z9tWITRcbvhpctFFqAQwedFEY0-5DguaonsJWaNwLVYpMofO0BDfN_8JRnPvy2fbkWP4/s640/blogger-image--878954727.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="233" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwyDmRPrzpnzWYgpxGJtnzJWvgQETDSBtV_eGb-dg9ig1Q0XZlJlCgRF-djz06WNO5Jm5Ea21z9tWITRcbvhpctFFqAQwedFEY0-5DguaonsJWaNwLVYpMofO0BDfN_8JRnPvy2fbkWP4/s320/blogger-image--878954727.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
Then I took Rebel, a mid toned khaki green in a matte finish, and I applied that over my lid only using my middle finger. I applied it in a patting motion to pack the color over the lid. Then I took a fluffy blending brush and put Deluxe, which is a warm red bronze with a pearlized finish, in the crease and the outer corner. I also dragged it on the lower lash line using my Real Techniques detail eye brush. I didn't drag it all the way across the lower lash line but I did it a good 3/4 of the way (maybe a little more). <br />
<br />
Then to finish off the look I took XO, a light champagne with a pearlized finish, and used my pinky finger to apply this lightly to the inner corner of my eye to highlight. I also lightly used my finger to drag it on the inside corner of the lower lash line to connect it with Deluxe. <br />
<br />
Lastly I lined my waterline and tightline with my Charcoal Loreal Silkissimme liner and then applied a couple coats of mascara. I can't remember which mascara I used but I'm pretty sure it was my Tarte Lights, Camera, Lashes mascara. <br />
<br />

Today I am going to share with you what I got in my Ipsy April Glam Bag. <br />
<br />
For those of you who are not real familiar with Ipsy here's a little breakdown of what it is...Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription that you sign up for. It costs $10 a month and they bill you on the first of the month every month. Shipping usually starts around the middle of the month and they start giving out little sneak peeks of what is all going to be in the bags for the month. They start the sneak peeks around the first of the month and you can see those on their Facebook and Instagram pages. Right around the 10th or 12th of the month they open up your "Glam Room" and it will show you what you will be getting in your bag. You get roughly 5 products in your bags and the items they choose for you are somewhat based on the beauty quiz you take when you sign up. Each product is usually a deluxe sized sample and at least one of the items is full sized. You can re-take the quiz at any time if you are not satisfied with the types of products you are getting. Your products are packed inside a cute little make-up bag that is designed for the theme for the month. If you are interested in signing up I will give you my link <a href="http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hhmbs5tbtvw01mlw" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0033;">here.</span></a> Check out this link for more information and to sign up. <br />
<br />
As always included with your bag is a little card with the theme on it and either has more information about the theme, the Ipsy beauty vloggers, or inspirational quotes. This month the theme is "Beautifully Bohemian". The bag is a really pretty woven "straw" like bag with pops of color weaved in. It also has the signature Ipsy zipper pull. I am really liking this bag and I think it is one of my favorites that I've gotten so far. <br />

The first product I received in my Ipsy bag is this Julie G nail polish in the shade Damsel. This is a beautiful mid-tone pink creme. I have never tried this brand before but have heard lots of good things about them. I was so happy to get this in my bag and I love it. I will just say that I am definitely going to be buying some more Julie G polishes as soon as I can! This retails for $3.99. <br />

The next item I got was this Mullein & Sparrow Mini Lip & Cheek Tint. It is a all natural sheer, tinted balm. As you can see from my swatch above, there really is not tint or sheer color to it. On me it is just a clear glossy balm. I do still love it and I will use it frequently. It feels really good on my lips. It is 0.25 oz and from what I can see on their site is this is the only size it is available in and retails for $10. <br />

The 3rd item I got was the Pandora's Makeup Box Blush in the shade Carnation Pink which is a peachy pink matte blush. It had a silky texture and was very pigmented. I have not tried this one out on my face yet but I have a feeling that with a light hand this will look beautiful on. This appears to be the blush refill only but on their site you have the option to purchase it with a magnetic refillable box. The blush refill only retails for $14 and if you want the magnetic refillable box with it then it retails for $18, so the box is only an additional $4 which isn't bad since you can refill the box and save on the waste when it's empty.<br />

The 4th item I got was theBalm Cosmetics Nude Dude Eyeshadow Single in the shade Fit which is a shimmering copper. It is very smooth and nicely pigmented, it can be applied dry or wet for a different look. I haven't worn this yet but I know I'm going to like it and will use it often. From what I could tell on their site is that these shadows are not available individually but they are a part of a pallet of 12 shades which retails for $36. <br />

The last item I got was this MicaBeauty Eye Primer. It is perfect for sealing in eye shadows and foundation, it can enhance your look, go from shimmer to matte in seconds. It is waterproof and is long lasting and smudge proof. This is a a 4g pot and the full size is 8g/0.3oz. It retails for $44.95 for a full sized pot on their site. I'm glad I got this one because I am almost out of eye primer and now I don't have to go out and purchase some more. <br />
<br />
I am very pleased with everything that I received in my Glam Bag this month and I can see myself using every product. <br />

****THESE ITEMS WERE PROVIDED TO ME FREE FOR TESTING PURPOSES FROM INFLUENSTER****<br />

The first item I received in my #XOVoxBox from Influenster was a pack of the Tide Pods with Febreze. There were 10 pods in the pack and they are a 4 in 1 pod. They clean, soften, remove stains, and leave your clothes smelling fresh. I already use Tide Pods regularly so I was pleased to get these and try them out. For me it is just so convenient to just pop a pod into the wash instead of having to measure you detergent, wait for the rinse cycle to add the softener, and don't forget having to treat the stains before you throw them in the wash. What if you forget or miss a stain and you wash it, then throw it in the dryer, chances are your stain is now set for life. With the stain remover in this pod you don't ever have to worry about missing a stain again. Plus it leaves your clothes soft and smelling fresh!<br />

This next item I received is the new Colgate Optic White Toothbrush with built in whitening pen. I was a little skeptical about this because I have tried so many whitening products and didn't get much results. This one I have to say has really surprised me. You brush your teeth with this toothbrush that has these bristles that help clean your teeth, technically they aren't bristles but these rubber things nestled in the middle of the brush. The whitening pen fits right inside the handle of the toothbrush. This whitening gel in the pen is different than other ones I've used. This one you don't have to wait for it to sit and then rinse it off, you just apply it to your teeth and go, it adheres to the teeth and you don't have to rinse it off. It also has a nice minty flavor (just a mild minty flavor) to it so you don't have to worry about having an awful taste in your mouth. <br />

This next item I got goes with the toothbrush that came with this box. This is the Colgate Optic White Platinum Express White toothpaste in Fresh Mint. It says it has 2 times the whitening ingredient. I am liking this toothpaste and I think I will be purchasing it again when this tube runs out.<br />

The next item I got was the Skinfix Hand Repair Cream. This is a thicker cream that says it "delivers healing benefits above and beyond the average hand cream to soothe the most challenging skin conditions. This specially formulated medicinal hand cream contains 1% colloidal oatmeal to target eczema, dermatitis and extreme dryness". It also says that it calms redness, relieves itching, and rebuilds the skin barrier with a blend of healing botanicals, rich natural butters and emollient oils. I can say that it does not have a scent but I did notice that for a little while after application my hands felt somewhat greasy. It wasn't enough to make me stop using it because it really did work for my hands. I do not know if I will purchase this again because I am not sure of where I can get it in my area. <br />

This item that was sent to me was the John Frieda 7 Day Volume In Shower hair treatment. I have not tried this out yet but I will try it soon. It says that it :<br />
<li>Texturally transforms fine hair, leaving it full even after multiple washes.</li>
<li>This lightweight semi-permanent treatment establishes a base for volumized styling, enabling her to achieve a look previously viewed unattainable.</li>
<li>The treatment works by penetrating into each fiber and amplifying each hair strand for lift that lasts through multiple washes. </li>
<br />
I may have to give it a try because I have fine hair and would love to have some volume occasionally.<br />

The next items I got were these sample/travel size John Frieda Beach Blonde shampoo, conditioner, and Sea Salt Spray. I have tried the shampoo and conditioner and I have been really pleased with them. I do occasionally use a flat iron to straighten my hair and I almost never use the heat protectant spray even though I have it so it's nice to have a shampoo that is great for heat damaged hair. The conditioner leaves my hair so silky smooth and easy to comb because of the detangling properties. They both have energizing mint and it is such a nice pleasant smell, not overwhelming. I have yet to try the Sea Salt Spray so I can't say how it works but I'm looking forward to trying it out. <br />

This last item was my favorite part of this box. I received a coupon code for a free bra and panty set if I signed up for a VIP membership to Adore Me. Adore Me's description of their VIP Membership is listed here:<br />

While the membership is nice some of you might not want to commit to a membership so you can also pay as you go. In the VIP Membership you also have the ability to skip the month as long as you log in to your showroom by the 5th of each month. If you are interested in trying them out use this link <a href="https://my.adore.me/x/EOo4N4">here.</a> I was very pleased with my selection. Everything fit perfectly and I've had them for about a month now and with washing, drying, and wear they have held up well, I've had other bras and panties from stores like Walmart that fell apart after a couple washings so that was a little disappointing. </div>

Today I am going to share my March Ipsy Glam Bag with you. This month's theme is Floral Fantasy.<br />
<br />
For those of you who are not real familiar with Ipsy here's a little breakdown of what it is...Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription that you sign up for. It costs $10 a month and they bill you on the first of the month every month. Shipping usually starts around the middle of the month and they start giving out little sneak peeks of what is all going to be in the bags for the month. They start the sneak peeks around the first of the month. Right around the 10th or 12th of the month they open up your "Glam Room" and it will show you what you will be getting in your bag. You get roughly 5 products in your bags and the items they choose for you are somewhat based on the beauty quiz you take when you sign up. Each product is usually a deluxe sized sample and there is usually at least one item that is full sized. You can re-take the quiz at any time if you are not satisfied with the types of products you are getting. Your products are packed inside a cute little make-up bag that is designed for the theme for the month. If you are interested in signing up I will give you my link <a href="http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hhmbs5tbtvw01mlw" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0033;">here.</span></a> Check out this link for more information and to sign up. <br />
<br />
As always included with your bag is a little card with the theme on it and either has more information about the theme, the Ipsy beauty vloggers, or inspirational quotes. The bag this month is a pretty blue floral print with the signature "Ipsy" zipper pull. The material of this bag is the same as last month's material, it's a nice coated fabric that is heavier than regular fabric. <br />

The first item I got in my bag was this <strong>NYX Cosmetics Butter Lipstick</strong> in the shade Little Susie. This shade is kind of a pinky color. I love these lipsticks because not only are they affordable but they are very comfortable on your lips. They don't dry out my lips at all. This was a full sized product.<br />

The second item I got was the <strong>Sexy Hair Soy Renewal Creme Oil</strong>. This is a luxurious styling crème made of the lines staple blend of soy, cocoa and argan oil. Soy Renewal Crème Oil gives lightweight conditioning and moisturizing that helps hair look and feel extra healthy! I have not tried this yet so I am not sure how well it works or if I like it. This was a travel sized product.<br />

The third item I got is the <strong>Chella Ivory Lace Highlighter</strong>, this is formulated for light skin tone so it should work well on me. Chella says it is a neutral pencil that will brighten and visibly lift your eyes when lightly applied on the brow bone, dark circles, blemishes and red spots. In addition, this multi-purpose pencil can be used to brighten and “open” the eye area by applying to the water line and inner corners of the eye. I haven't used it yet but I am really looking forward to trying it out real soon! This is a full sized pencil. <br />

My fourth item I got was the <strong>Dr. Brandt Skincare Pores No More Anti-aging Mattifying Lotion</strong>. This is a deluxe sample sized. This is a lightweight lotion formulated with apple stem cells to help delay the natural signs of aging by maintaining the longevity and activity of stem cells in the skin. Simultaneously, retinol stimulates new cell turnover and improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. They say it is "oil-free, helps delay the natural signs of aging by maintaining the longevity & activity of stem cells in the skin. Also stimulates new cell turnover, improving the appearance of lines & wrinkles and increases water reserves, limits water loss & improves lipid barrier function to balance moisture levels". I haven't tried it yet but I will be giving it a try real soon. <br />

The final item I got was the <strong>Marsk Mineral Eyeshadow</strong> in the shade Lucky Penny. I believe this is a full sized product. They are 100% natural, mineral based loose powder. Featuring a creamy texture, this highly pigmented powder is easily blendable and offers the ability to create depth and intensity around the eye. I have not tried it out yet but it looks to be a copper color and I've heard it's really pigmented. <br />
<br />
<br />
That is all I got in my bag this month and I was pleased with most of the items. The styling creme and mattifying lotion I'm not sure about yet but that's just because I have really sensitive skin so I'm always unsure of how my skin will react to something new. I am sure that I will use the mattifying lotion but I am just not sure how I will like the styling creme in my hair, I don't put a lot of stuff in my hair because it is fine and I don't want to weigh it down and I hate that when it does. <br />
<br />
Stay tuned for next month's Ipsy Glam bag and I'm excited to see what the theme for April will be. <br />

Today I have a nice little glitter polish from the OPI Fall 2014 Nordic Collection. This is "My Voice Is A Little Norse". This is a clear base with small silver holographic square glitters. You can wear this on it's own or as a top coat over another color. I should have taken some pictures of it over another color to show you how gorgeous it is. <br />
<br />
I used 3 thin coats for these photos and 2 coats of Out The Door top coat to smooth it out.<br />

I had no problems with this, it wasn't chunky or gloopy when I was applying and it really does have a beautiful sparkle that just didn't come through in the pictures. Please excuse the look of my cuticles in the macro picture but I had been having some major issues with dry skin and hadn't gotten it under control when I did these swatches. Thankfully it's much better now and my hands and nails are looking back to normal. The pictures were all taken indoors under artificial lighting and no flash. <br />
<br />
OPI products are available at a number of stores such as Target, Walmart, and Ulta. It's also available at salons and beauty supply stores, numerous online retailers and Amazon. They retail for $9 but some places may have slightly different prices. <br />

Today I have some of the Colourpop Super Shock Shadows to show you. This is a foursome created by the super fabulous <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/shaaanxo" target="_blank">Shaaanxo</a>. The perfect bundle of shades that allow you to create a multitude of looks! I purchased this myself and I am so glad I did. These shadows are amazing!! I am becoming obsessed with these ColourPop shadows. Colourpop shadows are cruelty free, bunny approved, and all but 5 of them are vegan. These shadows only cost $5 each!! That's an amazing price for a product this good. <br />

A little about these shadows before I go on to the swatches. The formula on these shadows is completely unique and super soft and highly pigmented. They recommend that for best application you pat it on your lids with your fingers, but don't press down too hard on the shadow pot because they are really soft and creamy but they aren't a cream, they are a powder shadow. You can use a soft brush also to apply but I've heard recommendations that you should use a synthetic brush like the Real Techniques brushes (those are the brushes I use). <br />

“XO is perfect for highlighting the inner corner. Rebel is the most amazing Khaki shade It looks gorgeous all over the lid or lower lash line. Deluxe is gorgeous blended all over the lid for a darker bronze smokey eye. Selfie is an amazing transition shade to use in your crease, or all over the lid for a natural sunkissed glow!” – Shaaanxo<br />

I purchased these myself and I am so glad I did. These lippies are amazing!! I know I've said it before but they really are amazing. These Lippie Stix and Lippie Pencils have been my go to lippies ever since I tried my first ones.You can read my review on the first three batches of Lippie Stix and Lippie Pencils I purchased <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/colourpop-lippie-stix-and-lip-pencils.html" target="_blank">here</a>, <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/a-couple-more-colourpop-lippie-stix-and.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2015/02/more-colourpop-lippie-pencils-lippie.html">here</a>. <br />
<br />
Let me just say that these are not only amazing products but they are super budget friendly too! All of their products that are on their site are $5 each. $5 is so affordable!!! Plus if you order $30 or more you get free shipping. They have the Lippie Stix, Lippie Pencils, the new blushes, and they have their Colour Shock Shadows (I ordered 4 more shadows that were part of a vlogger collaboration with Shaaanxo when I ordered these lippie stix and pencils. You can read my review on my previous posts on the Super Shock Shadows <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/colourpop-super-shock-shadows.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2015/02/more-colourpop-super-shock-shadows.html">here</a>). I haven't tried the new blushes yet but I've heard some really great reviews from other bloggers and vloggers. I'll have to purchase a couple and see how awesome they really are for myself!<br />
<br />
Colourpop cosmetics is a cruelty free company (they are "bunny approved") and they are made right here in the USA in southern California. All but 5 of their shadows are vegan (check out their FAQ page <a href="http://colourpop.com/faqs/" target="_blank">here)</a> and their Lippie Stix are not technically vegan because they do contain less than .1% bees wax. <br />
<br />
These Lippie Pencils are not like any other lip pencil that I've tried. I usually stay away from lip pencils because they are dry and hard to apply but these are super creamy and go on so smoothly. They look like a plastic retractable pencil but they do not retract, you do have to sharpen them and it is suggested that you use a really good sharp sharpener (I use the Grindhouse one from Urban Decay). The Lippie Stix also come in a slim stick that is retractable, their packaging is just so slim and nice. <br />
<br />
This time I purchased 2 Lippie Stix and matching Lippie Pencils. I've been on a pink kick lately so this time around I purchased the Wifey Lippie Stix and matching Pencil and Heart On Lippie Stix and matching pencil. I really love the Heart On, it's my favorite out of these two shades. <br />
<br />
<br />
Wifey is a bright lavender pink in a satin finish.<br />

<br />
As you can see they are very pigmented and they do apply easily, they are super creamy, and not drying at all on my lips. I really do love these lippies and plan on expanding my ColourPop collection some more. <br />
When I get more I will surely share it with all of you!<br />
<br />

****PRESS SAMPLE****<br />
<br />
Do you love to wear glitter or textured polishes but hate the removal process? Now you can wear glitter or textured polishes and have super easy removal without any damage to your natural nails! NYC New York Color has come out with it's own super affordable peel off base coat called "Strip Me Off". I love the name of this, it's a little racy.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
NYC New York Color was kind enough to send me a bottle of this to try out and review. I will tell you that when I heard they were coming out with this I was so excited because I love wearing glitter and textured polishes but I hate how difficult most are to remove. I know that there are other indie brands out there who have a base coat similar to this but I want something that is super affordable and I can get at my local store if I happen to run out. This product really fit the bill and when I was asked if I wanted to try it out I was very eager to say yes!<br />
<br />
This base coat can be used under any polish to make it peelable. You can now change up your nail color anytime you want with no remover needed. It has a unique formula that protects nails while smoothing ridges and imperfections. <br />

<br />
To apply this you generously apply Strip Me Off base coat to clean nails. Once the white coat has dried to a transparent finish you can paint you nails with your favorite nail color, glitter, or textured polish.<br />

To remove this polish you just simply peel it off. As you can see in my pictures that I started peeling mine off at the edge and peeled it across the nail to the other side. There were just a couple tiny spots that still had some on my nail but I simply just caught the edge of it with my nail and it peeled right off. <br />

As you can see that it peeled off in pretty much one piece and you can see on my nail that it did not leave any damage to my natural nail. In fact my nail was in the exact same condition it was in when I applied the Strip Me Off base coat. I love this base coat so much that as soon as I saw it in my local store I grabbed another bottle just so that I had an extra one on hand for just in case. You never know when you are going to run out and need to have some more. <br />
<br />
This is available in chain drugstores and mass merchandisers nationwide. It retails for $1.99. This is so affordable that I think I am going to pick up another bottle or two the next time I'm at the store.

Today I just have a really simple but cute manicure that you can create without any tools, just using things you have at home already. Now with doing dots you don't really need to buy dotting tools, you can use the head of a bobby pin or the end of a stick pin (like what you use for sewing that has the pearl ball on the end). You can even use the tip of an old pen if you want. I have dotting tools that I purchased on Amazon for only like $3 or something. They took a while to get to me since they were coming from China but they were worth the wait for me.<br />

For this manicure all I did was put my base coat of my nail strengthener that I always wear and let that dry. Then I took and dipped my dotting tool in Tiana (the minty green) and did some dots at the tip of my nails. Next I took and put my dotting tool in Eden (the pink) and dotted some more dots at the tips of my nails and put a couple smaller ones over the rest of the nail. Last I dipped my dotting tool in Rayne (the metallic blue) and did some more dots at the tips and then a couple over the rest of the nail. <br />

I wanted the majority of the dots at the tips of the nails to create sort of a french tip. It's almost like there are pastel bubbles on my nails. I think this is just so perfect for Spring and Easter is coming up too!<br />
<br />
The Zoya Delights are available on Zoya's site <a href="http://www.zoya.com/">here</a> and if they aren't in Ulta stores and select salons yet, don't worry, they will be soon. They retail for $9 each.

Today I have some more of the Colourpop Lippie Stix and Lippie Pencils to show you. I purchased these myself and I am so glad I did. These lippies are amazing!! You can read my review on the first two batches of Lippie Stix and Lippie Pencils I purchased <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/colourpop-lippie-stix-and-lip-pencils.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/a-couple-more-colourpop-lippie-stix-and.html" target="_blank">here</a>. <br />
<br />
Let me tell you, these are not only amazing products but they are super budget friendly too! All of their products that are on their site are $5 each. $5 is so affordable!!! They have the new Lippie Stix, Lippie Pencils, and they have their Colour Shock Shadows (I ordered 7 more shadows when I ordered these lippie stix and pencils. You can read my review on those <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2014/11/colourpop-super-shock-shadows.html" target="_blank">here</a> and <a href="http://midwestlacqueredmomma.blogspot.com/2015/02/more-colourpop-super-shock-shadows.html">here</a>). <br />
<br />
Colourpop cosmetics is a cruelty free company (they are "bunny approved") and they are made right here in the USA in southern California. All but 5 of their shadows are vegan (check out their FAQ page <a href="http://colourpop.com/faqs/" target="_blank">here)</a> and their Lippie Stix are not technically vegan because they do contain less than .1% bees wax. <br />
<br />
These Lippie Pencils are not like any other lip pencil that I've tried. I usually stay away from lip pencils because they are dry and hard to apply but these are super creamy and go on so smoothly. They look like a plastic retractable pencil but they do not retract, you do have to sharpen them and it is suggested that you use a really good sharp sharpener (I use the Grindhouse one from Urban Decay). The Lippie Stix also come in a slim stick that is retractable, their packaging is just so slim and nice. <br />
<br />
This time I purchased 2 Lippie Stix and 1 Lippie Pencil. I didn't get the matching Lippie Pencil to the other Lippie Stix because there isn't a matching one available, you can just use one of the other ones that is close to the shade of it. <br />

The first ones I'm going to show you are the matching Lippie Stix and Pencil and they are in the shade Lumiere. Lumiere was created in a collaboration with Kathleen over at KathleenLights on YouTube, if you haven't watched her videos you should because she's super funny and has a lot of great videos. Lumiere is a dusty mauve pink in a matte finish. I LOVE this one, I love it so much that when I first got it I wore it everyday for at least a week. It still is one of my favorite go-tos for everyday looks for work. I will tell you this baby has some serious staying power! I can go all day at work without having to touch up my lips and that is with drinking from a can or water bottle all day and eating lunch. If I don't have anything special going on in the evening after work I don't touch up my lips and then when I wash my face at bedtime there is still a hint of this on my lips that I wash off. <br />

The next one I got is a new shade and it is in their new finish. This is Juicy. Juicy is a bright strawberry pink in the hyper glossy finish. This one doesn't have a coordinating Lippie Pencil to go with the Stix but you can use one of the other Lippie Pencils that are close in shade and line you lips with that. I might suggest using the Lippie Pencil in Punky or maybe Scandy. <br />

I have the Scandy Pencil so I'll here is a picture of Juicy Lippie Stix layered over Scandy Lippie Pencil.<br />
<br />
As you can see from all of my swatches these are really pigmented in color and they feel so great on your lips. I didn't have any problems with them drying out my lips or bleeding/feathering. I think that when you layer the stix over the pencil you have less of a chance of any bleeding or feathering. I also think that it extends your wear time when you layer them. You can also see the difference in the finishes of these two, Lumiere is a matte finish and Juicy is the new hyper-glossy finish. <br />
<br />
Colourpop Cosmetics is only available online <a href="http://www.colourpop.com/" target="_blank">here</a> and they are constantly releasing new shades so you should check back often to see what's new on the site. I just checked the site out again today and seen that they are going to be releasing some holiday collection soon. I am now going to be stalking their facebook and site for this new holiday collection. They ship to the the USA, Canada, US Virgin Islands, Guam and Puerto Rico but are hoping to expand shipping in the future. Shipping is free if you purchase $30 or more (which I can tell you it isn't hard to get to that amount with all the great products they have). <br />

Today I have some of the Colourpop Super Shock Shadows to show you. I purchased these myself and I am so glad I did. These shadows are amazing!! I am becoming obsessed with these ColourPop shadows. Colourpop shadows are cruelty free, bunny approved, and all but 5 of them are vegan. These shadows only cost $5 each!! That's an amazing price for a product this good. <br />

A little about these shadows before I go on to the swatches. The formula on these shadows is completely unique and super soft and highly pigmented. They recommend that for best application you pat it on your lids with your fingers, but don't press down too hard on the shadow pot because they are really soft and creamy but they aren't a cream, they are a powder shadow. You can use a soft brush also to apply but I've heard recommendations that you should use a synthetic brush like the Real Techniques brushes (those are the brushes I use). <br />

The first batch of shadows I am going to show you are from the Limited Edition Holiday Collection "Not A Box Of Chocolates". It is still available but I don't know for how much longer it will be available. There are six shadows in this collection, a couple of them ColourPop has decided to make a part of the permanent collection. The Collection comes in a cute little gift box that really wouldn't need any wrapping if you were going to give this as a gift. It is $30 but that still equals out to $5 per shadow (just like the regular price of the shadows). In this collection the shades are Halo, Tinsel, Sleigh, Drift, Partridge, and Doe-a-Deer. Drift and Partridge were made permanent this year. <br />

Here are swatches of each of these colors from the Not A Box Of Chocolates Collection. I am so happy that I was able to purchase this set before they took it away. I know a couple of these shades are now a part of the permanent collection but I wanted them all! They just blend so easily and have some insane pigmentation and sparkle! I wear Super Shock Shadows just about everyday!!<br />
<br />
<br />
The next one I purchased is Ibiza. Ibiza is a bright turquoise with a silver and gold duo chrome finish. This one is gorgeous!! I have worn this recently and I just lined my lower lash line with it and man did it make my blue eyes pop! <br />

****PRESS SAMPLE****<br />
<br />
Today I am going to share with you the most recent polishes I received from the people over at Sally Hansen. I have been wanting to try out these and I am so happy that Sally Hansen was kind enough to send one over for me to test out. This is the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel polish with the Topcoat. This is a 2 step system that is supposed to give you the long wear and shine of a gel manicure without the UV light and hard removal. <br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It is said to give you up to 14 days of color and shine with easy removal and no light needed. These are available at CVS, Target, Walmart, Walgreens, Ulta, and KMart. It is available in 45 shades. You can buy the shades and the Topcoat separately or if you are just trying this for the first time you can purchase a shade and Topcoat together in a "starter kit". They retail for roughly $7.99-$9.99 (depending on where you go). I searched online to see if I could find a price on a "starter kit" but cannot find one online, I know I have seen them at my local Walmart so you may have to search for the "starter kit" or just purchase them individually. <br />

This one Sally Hansen sent me is in the shade Redgy, it is a bright red that is gorgeous in person. Now with these there is no base coat required but I did because I wasn't sure if it was going to stain or not (I am currently still wearing this so I'll have to do an update and let you know how it wore or if it stained. You apply 2 coats of color, wait for it to dry, and then add one coat of the top coat. I on the other hand did not wait for my color to dry before applying the top coat (I was a little rushed) and they only issue I had was that on a couple of nails the color dragged a bit when I applied the top coat. Now had I waited for the color to dry like I was supposed to I wouldn't have had that problem. <br />

Removal for this is the same as any other nail polish you use. You can use acetone or non-acetone nail polish remover and it easily comes off. So far after a few days of wear I can tell you that my nails are still just as shiny as when I first did them and as of yet I do not have any chips or tip wear. I didn't have any issues with application on these, they applied just like any other polish. The top coat does say in the instructions to avoid getting it on your skin but I don't think it's going to be too big of an issue if you do (I did get a little on my cuticle on one nail and it's just fine, it came off in the shower like a regular polish comes off the skin). <br />

<br />
I am very pleased with these and I think I will be picking up a few more shades to add to my collection. I love that the shine lasts so long on these because that's one of the things I hate the most is when my top coat dulls and I have to add another coat to revive the shine. If you haven't tried these yet you should do so as soon as you can because you are going to love them, especially if you are someone who loves a gel manicure but hates the removal. <br />

This month's theme for Ipsy was #ipsyLOVE which I thought was very fitting for February (Valentine's Day). The bag is a really cute vinyl bag with a pink, white, and grey checked pattern and of course there is the signature Ipsy zipper pull on it. I really love this bag and I think I might change out the one I carry in my purse for this one. <br />
<br />
For those of you who are not real familiar with Ipsy here's a little breakdown of what it is...Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription that you sign up for. It costs $10 a month and they bill you on the first of the month every month. Shipping usually starts around the middle of the month and they start giving out little sneak peeks of what is all going to be in the bags for the month. They start the sneak peeks around the first of the month. Right around the 10th or 12th of the month they open up your "Glam Room" and it will show you what you will be getting in your bag. You get roughly 5 products in your bags and the items they choose for you are somewhat based on the beauty quiz you take when you sign up. Each product is usually a deluxe sized sample and there is usually at least one item that is full sized. You can re-take the quiz at any time if you are not satisfied with the types of products you are getting. Your products are packed inside a cute little make-up bag that is designed for the theme for the month. If you are interested in signing up I will give you my link <a href="http://www.ipsy.com/?refer=u-hhmbs5tbtvw01mlw" target="_blank"><span style="color: #cc0033;">here.</span></a> Check out this link for more information and to sign up.<br />

The first item I received in my bag this month was a Rob Scheppy for 'TiniBeauty Eyeshadow. It is in the shade Pearl Fizz, a shimmering beige powder shadow from the palette designed for 'Tini Beauty by Hollywood makeup artist Rob Scheppy. It is a full sized shadow and retails for $12 on 'Tini Beauty's <a href="https://www.tinibeauty.com/product/pearl-fizz/" target="_blank">site</a>. I have not tested this out but I am sure I am going to like it, I love having shimmery beige shadows that I can use for creating neutral eye looks or just swiping on by itself when I just want to wear minimal makeup.<br />

The next item I got was a parfume sample from Joya. It is the Composition No. 1 Parfum Oil. JOYA Composition No. 1 is a luscious perfume oil in a beautiful and convenient roll-on travel-sized bottle: fruity, floral, creamy, citrus, a little musk, a lot refreshing. Perfume oil, unlike traditional alcohol-based fragrances, whispers instead of screaming. JOYA parfum realizes the true essences of its top, heart and drydown notes and gently absorbs on the skin of each wearer, making for an intimate and personal experience. Composition No. 1 interacts with your own chemistry and smells different on everyone and is sure to make an impression. This is a sample size and the full size retails for $30 on Joya's <a href="https://www.joyastudio.com/shop/item_description.php?IID=181" target="_blank">site</a>. I have not tested this to see how I like the scent so we will see what happens. <br />

The 3rd item I got was a ModelCo. Blush Cheek Powder in the shade Peach Bellini (a peachy pink). ModelCo’s BLUSH Cheek Powder creates a beaming, rosy glow to brighten every complexion. The micronized color pigments and luxurious, pressed powder delivers a sheer, natural radiance that lasts all day. I have not tried this item yet because just by looking at it I am wondering if it will be too dark for me but I will give it a try and see how I like it. This is a full sized product and it retails for $22 on ModelCo's <a href="http://www.modelcocosmetics.com/shop/cosmetics/face/face-bronzer-and-blush/blush-cheek-powder" target="_blank">site.</a><br />

The next item I was a little excited to get because I have been wanting to try this brand out and see how I like it. This is the Cargo Mini Lip Gloss in the shade Anguilla. Its super high shine gloss delivers intense color payoff and locks in moisture to keep lips feeling hydrated. This longwearing lip gloss has a slick texture that feels creamy gliding over lips without being sticky. Ingredients such as Vitamin E and Jojoba Seed oil help increase lip moisture and decrease the appearance of furrows around the mouth while increasing lip volume to its maximum fullness. I have yet to try this item out as well (I'm a little behind this last week or so) but I think I am going to love it and I will probably wear it a lot, especially on the weekends when I wear minimal makeup. This is a sample size and the full size retails for $16 on Cargo's <a href="http://www.cargocosmetics.com/lips/lip-gloss/new-essential-lip-gloss.html" target="_blank">site</a>.<br />

The last item I got in my bag this month I was really excited about because I love trying out new brushes. This is the Luxie Beauty Large Angled Face Brush 504. This is such a soft brush and I am really liking it. The Luxie Rose Gold Large Angled Face Brush is a 100% Animal Cruelty Free brush with high quality synthetic hair bristles that are soft to the touch. With its Vegan makeup qualities from bristles to ferrule, this Rose Gold brush is a must have in your makeup collection. Coated with a revolutionary antibacterial solution for minimal brush cleansing, your brush remains fresh and clean for longer periods of time. The density of the brush allows for an even application without any wasted product and does not absorb the product into the bristles. This one retails for $8 right now on Luxie Beauty's <a href="http://www.luxiebeauty.com/luxie-rose-gold-large-angled-face-brush-504/" target="_blank">site</a>.<br />

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">****PRESS SAMPLE****</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Today I have for you the new 2015 Spring Delights Collection from Zoya. These shades are just perfect for Spring and I am hoping that by me wearing them it will encourage Spring to come a little early here in Minnesota (LOL).</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">This collection consists of 6 polishes, there are three cheerful creams and three turquoise flash metallics <span style="letter-spacing: 0.55pt;">for an updated, flirty way to wear pastels! All in the full-coverage, long-wearing, Big5Free* formula<b>Zoya Nail Polish</b> is famous for.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; letter-spacing: 0.55pt;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; letter-spacing: 0.55pt;">Here are the shades in this collection. On the metallic ones I decided I was going to try out my new macro lens for my camera and test it out. I thought that it would give you a nice close up of that metallic flash that they have. </span><br />
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.55pt;"></span><span style="font-family: inherit;"> </span><br />
<span style="letter-spacing: 0.55pt;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">The first one up is going to be <span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 9pt; letter-spacing: 1.3pt; line-height: 120%;"><strong>Rayne. </strong><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: small;">Rayne is a d</span></span></span><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; letter-spacing: 1.3pt; line-height: 120%;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">ewy, spring blue with an energizing turquoise metallic flash. This one just reminds me of a beautiful icy blue. I may try using 3 coats on this one next time I wear it because I can see that I do have some visible nail line and I usually prefer to not have any. This color is so beautiful and I bet would be wonderful for some Easter nail art. </span></span></span><br />

All of these had Zoya's amazing formula and I didn't have any troubles with any of these. I used 2 coats for all of these and Eden is the only one that I photographed with a topcoat. I did feel like Daisy could have probably been better with 3 coats and next time I wear it I think I am going to do 3 coats. I also think that Tiana could have been a 3 coater as well. You can see in my pictures that at 2 coats it's a little streaky. Not to worry though, just add a 3rd coat and you are good to go! I also want to note that I at first glance thought that Lillian and Tiana were very similar to Blu and Neely but when I further studied them there is a couple slight differences in them. I may do a comparision post on them one of these days. <br />
<br />
Zoya polishes retail for $9 for regular polishes and $10 for any of the PixieDust line. You can purchase Zoya polishes at Ulta stores, select salons and as always Zoya's <a href="http://www.zoya.com/" target="_blank">site.</a> I don't believe this collection is available at Ulta stores yet but don't fret, it will be in stores before you know it!<br />

This month's theme for Ipsy is Start Fresh which I think is fitting for January, it's the start of a new year and an opportunity to start fresh with some things. The bag this month is very simple, it's made of a kind of heavy textured vinyl. It has a orange zipper with the signature "Ipsy" zipper pull and it's white on one side and a royal blue on the opposite side. It's very different and yet so simple at the same time in my opinion. <br />

For those of you who are not real familiar with Ipsy here's a little breakdown of what it is...Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription that you sign up for. It costs $10 a month and they bill you on the first of the month every month. Shipping usually starts around the middle of the month and they start giving out little sneak peeks of what is all going to be in the bags for the month. They start the sneak peeks around the first of the month. Right around the 10th or 12th of the month they open up your "Glam Room" and it will show you what you will be getting in your bag. You get roughly 5 products in your bags and the items they choose for you are somewhat based on the beauty quiz you take when you sign up. Each product is usually a deluxe sized sample and there is usually at least one item that is full sized.

The first item I received in my bag was an item I actually already own but I'm happy to have another one. It is the <strong>Real Techniques Fine Liner Brush</strong>. It is "the ultimate tool for precision application of liquid or cream eyeliner. The ultra-plush synthetic bristles are hand-cut and 100% cruelty free. Its extended aluminum handle is light and easy to use to make you look pixel-perfect even in the harshest of lights!" I have actually not tried this brush out yet (not even the one I already owned) but I plan to try it out real soon. I have a feeling I am going to love this for perfecting my application of liquid, cream, or gel liner. <br />

Then next item I received in my bag was the <strong>J. Cat Beauty Fantabulous Gel Liner</strong>. I was really excited to get this item because I have been wanting to try out gel liner. I used to be horrible at eye liner application no matter what I tried but now with practice I'm starting to get better. Now I want to perfect my winged liner look. This gel liner is intense yet it has a smooth creamy texture that lasts all day long and is smudge-proof! The color I got was Blue Black which I am assuming (because I haven't tried it yet) is like a jet black shade. <br />

The next item I got I think will go well with my new gel liner. It is the <strong>Pacifica Natural Mineral Coconut Eyeshadow</strong> in the shade Ethereal which is a shimmery champagne shade. This has an "incredibly innovative formula that pushes natural makeup and mineral color to new bounds. Rich, lasting, creaseless eye shadows are infused with coconut water for a velvety, cream-like finish. Formulated without: Phthalates, parabens, carmine, beeswax, lanolin, mineral oils, propylene glycol, petroleum and FD& C colors (along with other nasties you do not want on your skin). No animal testing. Gluten-free, 100% vegan and cruelty-free." I can't wait to use this along with the liner I got!<br />

I also received the <strong>Manna Kadar Cosmetics Sheer Glo</strong> shimmer lotion. It is an incandescent liquid that lights up skin with all over radiance. Mix with foundation or wear alone to provide a luminous glow for all skin types. An especially amazing product for mature or dry skin. Sheer Glo provides a youthful glow and dewy finish. Use on face and/or body and get glowing." I'm not sure if I will use this much but I might try to play around with it. I did rub some on the back of my hand and it did have a nice glow without being overwhelming with shimmer or glitter. <br />

The last item I got in my bag was something that I'm not sure I will use but I'll hang on to it because you never know when I'll want something like this to add to my skincare routine. It is the <strong>Nourish Organic Renewing Eye Cream</strong>. It says it "provides rich hydration to the delicate skin around the eyes. This powerful product will leave your eyes looking brighter, smoother and younger looking. The Key Ingredients are:<br />
• Avocado Oil - Restores and protects skin, while helping retain clarity and brightness.<br />
• Moroccan Argan Oil - Packed with restorative omega fatty acids to intensely hydrate and replenish. <br />
• Shea Butter - Deeply moisturizes and softens skin."<br />
<br />
I had been debating on whether or not I wanted to cancel my Ipsy subscription because I was starting to accumulate a lot of stuff that I haven't used yet but when I seen what I was getting in my Glam Room I was very pleased with the products and knew that I couldn't quit!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">****PRESS SAMPLE****</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">The next generation of Zoya Naturel is almost here! Introducing, <b>Zoya Naturel Satins,</b> a collection of six new, neutral nail polish colors in an ultra-wearable, low-sheen, chic satin finish. A hybrid between matte and glossy polishes, the new Zoya Satin* formula provides opaque coverage and is longer lasting than traditional matte shades. The flawlessly smooth<span style="color: windowtext; font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 120%;">finish hides imperfections and creates a luxurious, satin finish nail look.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">Zoya says that these satins are <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">not intended to be worn with a top coat. For best results: Prep nail with Zoya Remove Plus Nail Polish Remover, apply base coat and finish with 2 thin coats of any Zoya Satin Nail Polish.</span> </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: x-small;">The finish on these reminds me a little of the wax finish of a couple of Cult Nails polishes I have. These went on fairly good, I didn't have any problems with the formula and they dried in an average amount of time. I used 2 coats for all the swatches of these. The only thing that I didn't really care for is that if you have any brush marks it showed up, not horribly bad but it still showed. I think that for most people it isn't going to be a problem but I think it's just me, I know it's there so then I see it. Honestly though you really can't see the brush marks on the few that I had. For me I will just take a little extra time with my application and then it will come out perfectly. Maybe I had the brush marks because I was in a little bit of a rush and my hand was shaking a little (sometimes I get a shaky hand, I don't know why, it just happens towards the end of the day). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">First up I have <strong>Leah, </strong>Leah is a</span><span style="font-size: 9pt; letter-spacing: 0.7pt; line-height: 120%;"> lavender tinged taupe.</span><span style="font-size: 9pt; letter-spacing: 0.7pt; line-height: 120%;"> On me the lavender tinge is very slight and it looks more taupe on me. </span></span><br />

I was really quite pleased with these and surprised I liked them as much as I did. There were a couple colors that I just didn't like they way they looked on me, those were Rowan and Sage. I just think they didn't go well with my skin tone. I know I'll still use them. I think that these are the perfect transition into Spring. </div>

I think that my favorites out of the bunch are Brittany, Tove, and surprisingly Sage. Leah and Rowan I like but they aren't at the top of my list, I really have to be in the mood for a neutral like these when I wear them. Ana I am just not sure about so I can't say where it sits on my list. You should get these and try them out for yourself, you'll love the satin finish and I'm sure you'll find a few favorites that will help you transition into Spring!</div>

Today I am sharing with you my latest lippie obsession. This is the Lime Crime Velevetines Matte Liquid Lipstick in the shade Cashmere. Cashmere is described as a greige (beige/grey). This one does look different on everyone in my opinion. It just depends on your skin tone on how it's going to look on you. I am totally loving this one and have been wearing it for like the last week to work. <br />

Lime Crime Velvetines has a ground breaking formula that goes on liquid and dries completely matte. They are touch-proof, transfer-proof, and long wearing. I have worn this several times and I can honestly say that it really is transfer-proof and long wearing. I have put it on in the morning and didn't have to retouch at all during my work day (I work about 9 hours a day), I have even still had it on when I went to wash my make up off at the end of the day. It really is comfortable and doesn't feel like my lips are dry or uncomfortable. <br />

This shade was one that sold out quickly when it first came available and I was lucky and got one as soon as they restocked at the beginning of July. As of today it is still available on Lime Crime's <a href="http://www.limecrime.com/" target="_blank">site.</a> The Velvetines are available in 9 shades with a new one coming soon. I would love to purchase a couple more because I am really into a matte lip lately and these really hold up all day long. I am thinking of getting Red Velvet (the perfect matte red), Suedeberry(a matte coral red), and Pink Velvet (bright matte pink). I'm also thinking of the new shade that is coming out soon Riot, Riot will be an earthy reddish-brown matte. Utopia (a matte vibrant orchid) and Pansy (a true, rich velvety purple) are two others that have caught my eye but I am just really not sure how they will look on me. They have a nice doe foot applicator and I love that the tube is frosted with the pretty pink flowers on the red cap of the applicator. <br />

As you can see in the swatch picture above, Cashmere is listed as a greige but with my skin tone it has a little mauvey tone to it. I love the way it looks on me and I really love the feel of it on my lips. I highly recommend that if you love a matte lip you should most definitely try the Velvetines from Lime Crime. Below is a swatch pic of it on my lips. That matte finish of it does sort of accentuate the lines in my lips but that doesn't bother me, I'm still going to wear this baby every chance I get.<br />
