**This Review is for the Roll on only**

 

Packaging:*Slim bottle, I prefer a slim bottle vs. a wider one becasue the wider
  ones are just awkward for me to handle...
*twist off cap

Scent:*it has a light pleasant Aloe Vera scent.
*if you are sensitve to scents I would recommend
  smelling this before purchasing.

Product:*I have a love/hate relationship with all roll-ons in general.
*I put it on shirtless, because I want it on my underarm not my shirt.
*I want the aloe vera stick but the vitamin shoppe did not have so I
  went with the roll-on.
*It lasts for four hours(my shifts are usually 4 hours long) I wore it
  to work and when I got home I smelled a little musky..lol
*If you're an active person you are going to be reapplying after 4 hours.
*I love using this when I'm just lounging around at home.
 ( I have a non-cruelty free one for work/more active days)
*I am excited to try their deodorant stick to see if it will be stronger for work.

Hope you found this review helpful, thankies for reading...

Scent:
*I usually like to start with packaging but
  for this product I am starting with the scent.
*The first time I smelled this I thought it was
  different scent I never smelled before, I looked at
  the description and I've smelled Aloe Vera and Jojoba Oil, but never the gera
  nium the more I smelled it, I could pick up the sweetness of the geranium.So if
  you are sensitive to scents I would recommend smelling this in store before purchasing.

 



Packaging:
*Comes in a jar with a twist top lid.
*Each skin type has a different color label.
*Packaging includes the usual information plus
  a list of what this product has/doesn't have

*Yes gluten free
*Yes biodegradable

*Yes fragrance free

Product:
*Bought this product to replace my previous non-cruelty free
  moisturizer.
*Like any new product I did a test spot on my neck to see how
  my skin would react to it.
*The moisturizer is thick so a little bit goes a long way.
*When I first purchased I was not using this consistently and never
  noticed a change.
*So with the second jar I have been using it consistently
 and my face has gotten smoother and my makeup looks
 so much better.
*I like to use this twice a day once in the morning and the second before bed.

Packaging:

*Squeeze tube bottle

*Color of outside packaging mimicks product.

 

Scent:

*Pleasant smell, I personally love the smell of this.

*It does linger for a bit and fades after a bit.

 

Product:

*Has a liquid consistency

*small white beads (color beads)

*Works best when fingers used to apply it to the face.
   I have tried it with a beauty sponge, but I feel I can break down the color beads
   better with my hands then with the beauty sponge or a stippling brush..

*Light coverage

*Can also be used just as a primer.

*I apply it in sections, I start with my neck and work my way up.

                                     (I'll explain in the cons why)

 

Cons:

*Product dries, I don't want to say it dries to fast, but between this and
  New York Color's Skin Matching Foundation, New York Colors foundation
  dries faster than this.

*If you have some on your hands that has dried and you apply it to your face

  it will clump up.

 

Would I recommend this:

* yes I would recommend this, if you have a sensitive face

   (Before I bought this I researched it and some had a burning sensation,

    so air on the side of caution)

*For some the light coverage is a con.

  (I have some acne scarring and I use a concealer before hand)

I hope you found this review helpful...thanks so much for reading....and watching...

St. Patrick's Day Nail Designs

 

My second favorite holiday is St.Patrick's Day

it's my birthday holiday. I cannot draw for the life

of me, so I try to stick with designs that are

easy to do for me.

 

Here is what did...

 

Step 1: Apply basecoat..

I use Jordana's Nails be Stronger..

       The second is my Topcoat New York Color

                                                         Minute Quick Dry Nail Polish..

 ♦♦♦♦

 

Step 2: Apply Background Colors

 

For the light blue color on my thumb design I mixed
Sally Hansen's Brisk Blue

&

Sinful Colors in Snow Me White

 

For the flag of Ireland on my index finger I used

New York Color Minute Quick Dry in Pumpkin

Sinful Colors in Snow Me White

Sally Hansen Xtreme wear in Going Green

I did this applying each color and waiting for it to dry

before I applied the next color.

 

I used Sally Hansen's Xtreme wear in Going Green

for my ring finger..

I used Sally Hansen's Spring Green for

both my Middle Finger and Pinky.

 

After you have applied all of the background colors

wait an hour before applying anymore colors.

I used my blow drier on the cool setting

to help speed up the process, using the

cool setting will lessen the chances of

chipping.

 

♦♦♦♦

 

Step 3 Apply Designs

For my thumb I used

Rainbow Colors

Sally Hansen in Rapid Red

NYC Minute Quick Dry in Pumpkin

Jordana Pop Art Nail Design in Express In Yellow

Jordana Pop Art Nail Design in Define Green

 

For the Pot Of Gold I used Nicole by OPI in Disco Dolls

&

NYC Minute Quick Dry Nail Polish in Blackula

 

For My Middle Finger:

 I used Disco Dolls and

applied it using a dotting tool, if you dont have one

a bobby pin will work as well, or a paper q-tip cut in half.

 

Ring Finger:

Using Disco Dolls I appllied this color first for

the gold buckle let it dry and used the Art Deco

Nail color in black for the ribbon..

 

For My Pinky:

Using the Nicole by Opi in Disco Dolls for the french tip.

And the Pop Art Nail Color in Express in Yellow...

if you are drawing challenged hahaha you can also

use a four leaf clover nail decal.

 

Here is the finished look

 

Wanna see the video for this look...

How to : Longer Lashes

 

Materials Needed :

 

*Aloe Vera Gel
*Vaseline
*Almond Oil/Olive Oil

*Vitamin E Oil

*Castor Oil

*Small bottle(nail polish, travel size shampoo bottle)

*unused mascara wand/spoolie

 

 

Beauty Benefits:
Vitamin E Oil- The beauty benefits of Vitamin E oil are many such as a moisturizer
for dry skin, helps reduce the appearance of scars,acne, freckles, and fine lines.And is the key ingrediant in anti aging creams that help with wrinkles, strengthen nails, and for soft & shiny hair.Both capsule and liquid forms are available in most stores. And for this mixture it will help keep your eyelashes moisturized.

Aloe Vera:

Aloe Vera with its many beauty benefits, aloe vera promotes hair growth, and
can be used by all skin types..and its safe and natural.If this is applied just applied
by itself, its a bit too drying for the lashesand has the same effect as clear mascara
but combined with the other indgredients,it stops the mixture being too oily helps
hold the mixture together.

Vaseline - holds the rest of the product together,keeps hair hydrated and provides a protective
barrier against things like dirt and harsh weather..

Castor Oil - is a vegetable oil that comes from the castor bean(castor plant), colorless to very pale
yellow liquid with no odor or taste. More commonly used as a laxaive, and it has a beauty benefits
as well, and in this case this is what will cause the hair to grow.

Almond oil/Olive Oil is a natural growth stimulant and has been used in the Arab and Indian cultures for centuries for healthy strong hair..

Pour a

          *Aloe Vera gel
          *Vaseline

Teaspoon:

          *Castor Oil
          *Almond Oil
          *Olive Oil
          *Vitamin E Oil

♦Depending on the size of the bottle you have you could put more, I followed the above and it was
  about a quarter full so I just used more..

I have been using the Wet N Wild's Clinical mascara and my lashes have grown, but I would like to see if they would grow a little bit more, so a co-worker of mine recommended this method...and Im hoping this works..so I thought I would document it here on my blog with updates and pictures every month..

I'm having problems uploading the before picture so I am going to post it on my facebook page, and on here as soon as I can figure out what went wrong.. so here is the link for my facebook page..

Decorating the bottle is not necessary but I can never pass up an oppotunity for arts and crafts time..such fun.

Before using Avalon Organics, I used St.Ives green tea cleanser,
but I found out that st.ives is not a cruelty free company and is now owned
by Unilever. The first thing I was about to run out of was the above mentioned

st.ives cleanser, so I started on a search for a cruelty free cleanser and came upon this brand

from the leaping bunny list is cruelty free products.

Product:
It's a thick gel, so a little bit goes a long way...

I love the way it leaves my skin feeling soft, cleansed, and leaves my skin with a nice glow after.

Does a great job of removing makeup.
Does not leave my face feeling dry, and no flimy residue after it's rinsed off.
Great for all skin types, And has helped clear up little blemishes that I had.

Natural product without the harmful chemicals..

 

Scent:
The Scent is not overpowering.
The orange scent does lessen during use..

 

How I use it:

I prefer to use it at night only before bed.
I have Combination oily skin, if I wash over wash my face, my skin reacts to the dryness by    producing more oils to compensate.
A small pump of this goes along way and lathers well.
If Im wearing liquid eyeliner I use one pump for my eyes alone and another for the rest of my face.

 

Would I recommend this Product ?

Yes, it works for all skin types.
If you are sensitive to smells I would air on the side of caution...
