Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Gel

If there is one thing on my face that I have neglected for the longest time, is my brows. I got them threaded 3 years ago and it was a disaster. I've been too scared to have anyone touch them again so I just go in and try to even them out with Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz Pencil in soft brown. 

I was using Maybelline Great Lash Clear Mascara to hold down my brows but my hairs still kept moving. It was so annoying!!! So, I tried the Anastasia Beverley Hills Brow Gel

and this thing is amazing! 

From the website: Anastasia Beverly Hills' mission is to recreate the professional beauty experience at home. Out product philosophy is to innovate products that bring balance and proportion to help women enhance their natural beauty, while striving to maintain the high quality of standards that our customers have come to expect since 1997.

My brow hairs stay in place, doesn't clump, dries clear, doesn't harden and brows stay soft and touchable. Great for every makeup look even if brows aren't filled in. 

Clarisonic Mia 2 Review

People said the Clarisonic was a game changer and they were absolutely right. This little machine is amazing! After tons of research and listening to people's advice I went with the Mia 2.

The difference between the Mia and the Mia 2 is the speed settings. The Mia has one, the Mia 2 has, well, two. I was so excited to try it when I got home but it didn't work haha so we had to ship it back, wait 2 more weeks for another one then it needed to charge for 24 hours. So, I waited another whole day. 

I heard the best thing to use with the Mia is Purity by Philosophy. I immediately fell in love with this face wash. I felt like my makeup was being cleaned off, but it wasn't stripping my skin to much and it smells so good! 

The first time I used it, I was impressed. It wasn't a harsh brushing motion, but I felt like it was firm enough to really clean my skin. The first noticeable result was the smoothness of my face. I mean, it's incredible. The second noticeable result was the way my makeup applied. My liquid foundation went on smoother, and my makeup seemed fresher. I only use it at night some people do both day and night but I feel like it's too much for my skin in particular.

 I'm really happy with my skin. I recommend everyone go out and get one. I know they can be expensive but it's an investment worth having!

Bamboo Revitalizing Eye Masks

I bought these eye masks at Marshalls for  $3.99.

Lately, I've had bags, dark circles and these fine lines under my eyes so when I saw these I was super excited to try them out. You get 4 pairs in a box it said to reduce wrinkles & smooth fine lines, improve dark circles, instantly soothe & hydrate tired eyes. When I first opened the pouch it was really really gooey and messy I'm assuming it was the Aloe Vera. You put the strips under your eyes but be careful not to get it in your eye because it does sting. 

I first tried it at night when I put the strips under my eyes they kept moving I thought once you put them where you wanted them they would stay in place but they didn't. It was very cooling and really didn't have a smell. It says to leave them on for 15-20 mins and use 2-3 times per week. I can say after using them for 2 weeks I did notice an improvement with my dark circles. I still had fine lines but they weren't as deep. My concealer didn't crease into my lines like it normally does. For $3.99 I would definitely go back for more. 

BOOST IT: HIGH LIFT CREATION SPRAY

Hey everyone! I know I haven't blogged in awhile just been trying some new products and I wanted to try them out a few times before I give them two thumbs up or two thumbs down. 

This new boost it spray by L'OREAL is magic in a can. My hair is super straight and hard to tease. I just spray this where I need some volume and bam you got the tease without actually teasing. 

I was trying to get a picture of my hair but  this doesn't do it no justice sigh.... The spray works it instantly gives you lift and fullness; two thumbs up in my book. 

Bookoo

"FREE giant online yard sale in Houston" 

Adam and Austin founded Bookoo, - about 11 years ago - and they actually started out in Texas. They started out with small sites specific for military bases, and have been expanding to larger city's over the last few years. The reason it was so specific for military bases was because people in the military people are always bouncing around. Bookoo made it easy for military families to buy and sell 2nd hand items as they bounced around!

The site is so easy to use and maneuver through. I love that there is a bunch of different categories to search through; furniture, collectibles, clothes, toys, etc. 

^^^^ super easy to post the things you want to sell!!!! Check them out friends. 

L'OREAL Power Moisture

I've been using this mask for about a week now so far two thumbs up. It leaves my hair super soft and smells great. It said to instantly infuse moisture into every strand, locks in intense hydration without weight-down, transforms dehydrated hair into silky, soft, and manageable. I have to agree it does it all. The #1 thing I love is that it doesn't weigh down my hair after blow drying. 

Wish it would have came with a pump I feel like a lot of product is wasted and sometimes I wish it wasn't round. They should have put it in a tall bottle, it takes up a lot of room in the shower or at least in mine. The cost ($5.97) at Walmart is a good price for how much product you get.
