Hair Removal

Hello lovelies,
its time for another review.
But of course it comes with a quick story first lol
So idk how many of you suffer from ugly arm hair?? i do and i hate it, my arms are hairier than the bff's. Thats so wrong, so i knew i needed to get rid of this hair. I have tried shaving and i hate it, it leave little nasty red bumps when i do that. Waxing hurts real bad. So i came across Veet Hair Removal Gel Cream.

Let me say that the packaging was okay. I mean its easy to use because theirs a pump so theres no spills, but if it gets too hot it tends to leak, maybe thats just mine. The plastic razor is okay too, the little green ends which are suppose to be the plastic blades tear off if your too rough which i am lol.
Now for the product, the smell it kinda yucky, ok not kinda it is yucky! But the cream isnt running whatsoever, its thick and you just glide it on to the area where you would like the hair to be removed. Its says not to massage it in, just put over it, i do both depending on the spots. It says to wait 5-10 mins then remove with the plastic blade. well when i do that its hard for the product to come off, so what i do i run my arms real quick through warm water and then use the blade. The hair comes off real easy that way. After removal, i wash and srub my arms real good to get rid of any excess product since there have been times where i guess i didnt scrub hard enough and it left that nasty crap on my arm...ewww gross! After all that my arms feel nice and smooth.
So basically the product works well, it does what its suppose to do and its easy to use. The only downside is the smell and the waiting lol
So i do recommend this product for arm hair removal, i did try it on my legs and it just irritated them, idk why my body is weird. lol
****edited: the hair removal is for i believe legs and arms and underarms.
it also doesnt burn your skin like other hair removals****

so have you guys tried it out??? what did you think? let me know
until next time

Pink Pout by Revlon

Hello Bellas,
So i came across this gorgeous Barbie pink lipstick from Revlon which im totally loving right now!

I'm trying to buy quality drugstore products to do reviews on since you requested that. =]
Anyways, the Revlon lippie is called Pink Pout and its a matte lippie with a bright but not overpowering pink color.
its really gorgeous, and its not dry like other drugstore lipsticks i have tried.
Here are some swatches in different lighting:

Hair Product Review

Hello Bellas,
hope you are all having a great week. I wanted to do a review today on Mane n' Tail's Hair Strengthener Spray. If you all didnt know, i was going crazy about my hair fallout, well i finally went to the doctor but they still cant seem to figure it out, they claim stress! psh! no way im ok but fine whatever. Anyways, before i went to the doctor i hit up Sally's to look for anything to help strengthen my hair. I came across Mane n' Tail.




On the bottle it says its a leave in conditioner, on the back of the bottle is says its suppose to help strengthen and maintain strength , protect from chemical styling and excessive heat.

The price of the bottle was around $5-$6 for a 6oz bottle.
which is not bad,well at the time i didnt care how much i spent lol

I like the clear packaging because it lets me know how much product i have left in the bottle, which is always important. The spray is easy to use.
Now the smell....i love it, it smells like the infusium 23 products, i dont know if you ever smelled those but that the only way to explain it lol but no really its a good smell not like most hair products. It doesnt grease up your hair if you put too much which is always a plus for me, i dont know bout you gals...
So far after use, i have noticed that my fallout isnt as bad as it use to be which is a wonderful thing, meaning this product does work. It has also protected my hair from when i heat style it which is great. I am really happy with this product.

Summary:
  • cheap
  • easy to use
  • leave in conditioner, strentghner, and heat protectant.
  • can spray the whole bottle(dont recommend) and wont leave hair greasy
  • smells lovely
Basically i recommend it for you gals and boys, i love it and will continue to purchase it. So have you tried it yet?? if so what do you think?

MAC Studio Tech

Bellas,
i have something to ask all of you,
so let me start off by telling you first what happen.
ok so i go to the MAC counter wanting to purchase the lipgloss in "ever so rich" which i was so disappointed. That lipgloss appears to be like a soft lilac color, but when u apply it on ur lips its so sheer it looks super clear, my MUA tried pairing it with different lipsticks and it was like i was wearing a clear gloss anyways i was so upset. So i moved on and was gonna buy my mineral skinfinish and i was telling her about the products i use for my eyes, which she asked what base i use i told her UDPP and she she told me a secret and said thats her fav too, but shhhh! lol anyways then we talked about face products like foundation, and i told her i used the revlon colorstay, and i was using my studio fix on top of it, which i know i know is a big NO NO! but i was out of setting powder, shoot me!!! anyways, i told her that i feel like im not getting the coverage i really want, i want super full coverage, its cuz i hate my freckles! so she told me that i should try MAC Studio Tech foundation. its a cream based foundation. And its super full coverage and a little goes a long way she says. Well i told her i would have to think about it.
So i come here to ask all of you, have you tried this???
And what do you think of it???
Let me know what your thoughts are girls/guys

Here is what MAC says about it:


Totally tech. A tri-system blend of water, emollients and powder. Looks solid, glides on as a soft, creamy emulsion. Provides a natural matte, powder-perfect finish. Smooth to blend, easy to work with: provides a full range of coverage. Water-cooled - refreshes and hydrates skin. Light diffusing: softens lines, creates a fresh, flawless finish. Good on all skin types. Studio Tech is dermatologist tested, ophthalmologist tested, non-acnegenic and safe for contact lens wearers.
Info from MAC

EOTD!

Hello bellas,
So i was looking at videos on youtube and came across a really good eye tutorial, and the reason i liked it soo much was because of the colors. To me it was like a tropical theme, but thats just me! you can find it on QueenofBlendingMUA channel. And this is what it looks like (i took as many pics as i could to get different lighting cuz u know my camera sucks):









I was a little on the drunk side lol jk (excuse my crazy eyebrows lol)

What i used:
  • TooFaced shadow insurance (i hate it)
  • CS 88 e/s matte palette
  • NYX Jumbo eye pencil in purple
  • MAC Ricepaper e/s
  • MAC Blacktrack Fluidline
It was a very pretty look. Who are you ladies getting inspiration from right now???
