September Allure Beauty Box Unboxing

This months box is a curated box of Allure Best of Beauty favorites. Some things I liked. Some things are not going to work for me AT ALL. In general, the Allure box is usually a winner, this month, not so much. They include a mini-magazine each month that gives you specifics about the products and how to use them, its probably one of my favorite things about the box. Allure Beauty Box 5 beauty items per month Travel and Full Size Products Free Shipping $15 / month Micro Beauty Blender Seriously, its so small I’m afraid to use it. It makes me feel like I have giant fingers. I will use it, but I didn’t bring it on vacation because the size is just so small. It really is difficult for me to even hold it. I should be excited about its inclusion in the box, but I’m jut left wishing they had included a full size one. Lala Retro Whipped Cream This smells good. Not too strong. It has a nice silky formula. I have so many of these...

Orly Nail Polish Comparsion

Going through my nail polishes recently, I realized I had multiple versions of one company's products.  My sister has been doing some amazing Beauty reviews  (Ravan Reviews)  and suggested I do one on all the different Orly polishes that I have.  Right away, let me GUSH about the handles on these polishes.  They have soft gripper handles!  They are so easy to open.  I have a tendency to screw things on too tight.  I do it with Polishes, soda bottles, mayo caps, and more.  These, have the nice gripper on the sides so that you can open it.  I started with a Sally Hansen Double Duty Base & Top Coat on all of my nails.   I then put 3 coats of each color on each hand.  I really liked the end result, which you will see down below.  Endless Summers - Color Blast No. 50666 On my pinky, I decided to go with the Endless Summer. It is a pretty coral color. The brushes on these bottles are amazing. Th...
