I can’t believe it is Friday already…. seriously, where did the week go? It’s been so busy on my end, even with Veteran’s Day off that I couldn’t believe Friday was here already. I have a range of favorites from Foodie loves to Makeup so check out this week’s Friday Favorites and tell me what you think. Have a wonderful weekend love and watch the video below 😉 xo
Ipsy has definitely been an awesome subscription this past year. I have been subscribed to Ipsy now for a year and while there are some months where…
I never like to admit it, but I have some super short lashes. Honestly, out of everyone in my family I am the only one with short lashes.…
I have said this on many occasions, I’m a total eos addict. When I got the email that their Holiday 3 pack was rolled out, I ran over to the site to order it and it was sold out. Apparently it was sold out in a day and so I missed out on it. But, I have hope that I can find it at my local Walgreens or CVS. They also have it at Target or Ulta, both of which I do not have near me or on my island. I am super excited because this collection has the Vanilla Bean flavor – yummy! It also includes the Pomegranate Raspberry and Smooth Mint, two awesome flavors as well. Definitely check out your local stores to see if you can get your hands on this set. Retail $9.99

Eeek… Are you a VIB for Sephora and have you been watching the website like a hawk as I have the last few days? I have been watching…
About the same time last year, I was a part of Starlooks. I stopped about May or June of this year because I just had too much going…
The Holidays are just around the bend and everyone is looking for the perfect Holiday gift for the Beauty and Makeup lover in their life. This set by Sephora includes all of their Favorites when it comes to lip products and many have become some of my favorites as well. Check out my review in the video and the price break down for each. If you are a lippy lover or you know someone that is – definitely look into getting this item. Right now this collection is sold out on Sephora’s website – but the more affordable Give Me Some Lip is still available and you can check it out here.
So is the Give Me More Lip Collection worth it? Well, watch my video and see for yourself.
Holiday months are when I try to pick up most of my makeup items for the year – because gift sets, etc. are usually on sale. I don’t…
I absolutely love Fall… though you don’t really get the full experience here in Hawaii. This time of year you will notice that a lot of my eye…
I don’t know about you but I’m super excited to see this sneak peak via NYX Cosmetics Facebook Page. I LOVE LOVE LOVE NYX lipsticks, so much so that I have at least 20 of them in my lipstick collection. Tea Rose from their Matte line is probably one of my all time favorites along with Circe. I am so excited for these. I haven’t had the opportunity to try out their Butter glosses yet as I’m not a really huge lip gloss fan – not anymore any way. I do want to try at least one of them but I think I can wait and sit on the edge of my seat till the beginning of December so that I can try these out first. lol
I’m sure they will be the same price or on average about the same as their regular lipsticks – between $4 – $6. I can’t wait to get my hands on these. NYX says they should be available around the beginning of December. They say it will be butter soft and packed with Pigment… I say, Hell yes, I want some! Check out their Facebook post here for details: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=622382314467061&set=a.109559869082644.5609.105231842848780&type=1&theater

About a month ago I received the Perlier Volcanic Thermal Spa ($25.00, 6.7 fl oz) by cashing in my ifabbo coins. When it comes to skin care products or…
Hi Loves, I hope you all had an awesome and wonderful weekend. Mine was pretty laid back, but I was just so happy to be spending time with…
It is not secret that I have some crazy sensitive skin and do everything in my power to keep it in control by using natural products and pretty costly serums and products to keep my face and sensitivities at bay. About a year and a half ago I was diagnosed with eczema after having one of the most horrendous flare ups I could have ever experienced, so I have been very leery to try anything in fear that my skin would have a serious reaction again.
I have used Murad products in the past (cleansers and moisturizers) and while I did like their products, I never continued to use them after the first bottle was used up. It’s not because the product didn’t work, but because I just transitioned to something more readily available for me. But after receiving the Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum from Murad and using it the last 10-11 days, I really think this will be one I’ll continue to use.
Here is what my face looked like prior to my first use:
Don’t judge, lol – I know I look like a hot mess. I took this photo the day the Murad Serum arrived in the mail (October 20, 2013). This was taken earlier in the day before I applied any makeup.
This image was taken with my phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 2) and no editing has been done.
I took the photo above a few hours later before putting my makeup on since the lighting was a bit better. Again, same camera and no editing. In the image you can see some of my freckles on my cheeks as well as pigmentation from my eczema near my mouth area.
The photo above was taken on Halloween (10/31/13). The lighting was not as harsh so there wasn’t as much dark cast on the image, but you can tell that my face had lightened up quite a bit, enough so that it was noticeable by people I hadn’t seen for a few days. My husband even noticed the change. It was not dramatic enough to where I looked odd, but enough to where my skin had added luminosity and looked vibrant and pretty.
Check out my video review below where I discuss all that the product does, some of its key ingredients as well as demo the product for you to show you what my face looked like on the first day of use and then 10-11 days later. Overall, I’m very impressed by this Serum. It is backed by one of the leading Skin care companies but it also holds its own as it has definitely proven to be a favorite in my skin care arsenal. I would like to think the pictures show the results for you as well as the video.
The Rapid Age Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum retails on Murad’s site for $60.00 for 1 fl oz. Even with daily use, since you need only a thin layer, the product will last you for quite some time. I do think it is costly, but what skin care products aren’t these days? I think it will make an awesome addition to any woman’s skin care regimen, regardless of age.
Like I mention in the video below, please be sure to use sunscreen when using this product (or at anytime). Due to the ingredients it can cause sensitivity problems. Be sure to watch my video review for more detail on the results I received as well as my experiences. You can also watch the video here.
