March Allure Beauty Box Unboxing

Allure Beauty Box 5 beauty items per month Travel and Full Size Products Free Shipping $15 / month Th e Allure Beauty Box usually ties in my head with Ipsy as a great beauty box. When I think about getting rid of one or the other, I can never decide and I end up keeping both. The products in Allure tend to be better than Ipsy. This month was a great month of Allure Best of Beauty Award winners. Eyeko Eye Do Liquid Eyeliner I lurve Eyeko liquid liners. It definately is one of my favorites. This vibrant, waterproof liquid liner goes on smooth and it lasts. The swatch below after many hand washings was on my hand for 2 days. lol.  This liner has a pen tip which works great for people like me that have trouble with eyeliner.  Pencils don't work for me because they tug at my lid. This glides on smooth and easy. I can't explain how much I love this liner. Score: 5/5 - One of my all-time favorite products. $22 for the full size produ...

March Ipsy Glam Bag Unboxing

I PSY BEAUTY SUBSCRIPTION 5 beauty products a month Only $10 Free Shipping in the US March Glam Bag A DIY bag. Neat. This is a really clever idea. Where they failed were the variants on the markers. Why not just include 4 basic colors. Red, Blue, Green, Red. Instead - I got saddled with Orange and Green. Nope. I'd rather leave it black and white. The size of the bag is really nice. There is a ribbon tie on the zipper. I have zero complaints on the bag itself this month. ​Score: 4/5 If the marker colors had been better, I would have given it a 5. Vasanti Brush - Ipsy Points Extra I had built up a great many points. Month after month I would look at the rewards and not find anything I wanted. Then came this lovely Vasanti shade brush. Its a gray metallic shade and the bristles are so soft. An absolute win! Score: 5/5 BRTC Jasmine Waterful Foaming Cleanser Another face wash? Oh boy! I swear I've gotten this b...

Ipsy March Glam Bag Spoilers

The spoilers are in! Its that time again. Spoilers for the March Ipsy bags have just been revealed.  Here is what I am getting.  The product I am most excited for this month is the Tarte Sex Kitten Eye Liner. I know, I know, last month I said I was tired of getting eye liners, but its Tarte, so I'm excited to try it.  I've seen the rest of the products available this month and I'm super jealous of some of the brushes.  Why don't I get a brush this month. :(  I don't know. I'm not really excited about this bag and here is why - product by product. The Bag: This months bag is kind of cute.  Its a DIY bag. You will receive a set of markers to color and make the bag your very own. Honestly, neat idea that sounds like a pain in the ass.  DLS Baked Highlighter: I don't really use highlighters and when I do, I tend to over do it. Its one of those things that I don't understand why a girl needs to clog her pores with this product. You want y...

We take the time to get to know you, then send hand-selected clothing and accessories chosen to match your personal style and fit your body beautifully.   If you are like me, you hate trying on clothes in public. I'm a big girl. I have hips. I have boobs. I have a big ass. My arms are my least favorite feature of my body. Bingo wings they call them. They don't fit in shirts and don't even talk to me about sleeveless clothes. I hate bathing suits, but t-shirt style swim shirts are not the best either - they tend to balloon in the water. I've been seeing ads on Facebook for months about this company. I've also read reviews on My Subscription Addiction and decided maybe it was time to give it a try. The way it works Head to the website and fill out a profile. Its pretty in depth. You can pick col...
