Aveeno Positively Radiant Intensive Night Cream - Review

April 23, 2013

Today I have a review of the Aveeno Intensive Night Cream. I've never thought of using a night cream until I tried this one. I've used moisturizers but some were too heavy and greasy for an overnight use. Aveeno is always my go-to skin care products because I know how gentle yet effective they are for my skin. I have more dry and sensitive skin so Aveeno is my favorite. See how I liked this night cream in my review below!

Beauty Question of the Day: Favorite Lipstick Brands?

April 21, 2013

Happy Sunday!

Here is the Beauty Question of the Day: What are your favorite lipstick brands?

My Answer: If we are talking drugstore, then it would have to be Revlon or Milani. Both brands of lipsticks always have great pigmentation and a good range of colors. High end would be MAC or the Buxom lipsticks. I recently tried the Buxom ones and I am hooked! I will review those soon.

Let me know, what are your favorite lipstick brands?

Recap: LuckyFabb West 2013 Day 1

April 6, 2013

When you hear about Bloggers talk about the LuckyFabb conference, all you hear is how wonderful and amazing it is. But that is really the only way to describe LuckyFabb. For me it was one of the most inspirational and motivating blogging events that I have ever been to. The entire event really focuses on the tools you need to make your blog a business success. I spent most of the day with Olivia so I was happy to have someone there I really knew. Day 1 there was a lot of people to listen to and take notes on some great advice. Let's see some more pics!

NYX Cosmetics Makeup Setting Spray in Matte and Dewy Finish - Review

April 5, 2013

Here is another NYX review and this time on the new Makeup Setting Sprays in both Matte and Dewy. I personally needed the dewy finish more than the matte since my skin is so dry. But I also bought the Matte Finish for the summer time when my skin is more "dewy" on it's own. Since in LA the weather changes from really hot to cold the next day, I was able to test these both out and see if they really do what they claim. Read on to see how these sprays worked!
