Hey Everyone,
This should be the last review for the day, I promise. This time the review is for the Olay Fresh Effects BB Cream that I got complimentary from Influenster. Here goes nothing:
This is by far the best BB Cream I've ever tried. It gets rid of redness, evens out skin tone, and protects your face from UV rays from the sun. I wouldn't use it with other moisturizer because it already has moisturizer in it and it does keep your skin nice and soft and gives it a nice glow too. I've used Garnier before and it was okay but I just love the Olay BB Cream more. It does wonders for my skin.
Overall, I really like this BB Cream. It's definitely a go to beauty product and I will be purchasing this again and again, as soon as I run out.
Until next time guys have a great day and stay tuned for more!

Review: Intensive Heel Repair Cream
Hey Everyone,
Review time again. This time it's for the Intensive Heel Repair Cream that you can get at Kohl's. It normally retails for $9.00 but I got it on sale for $5.85. Here goes the review:
I've been using this cream for 3 days now and by the second day it made such a difference on my dry, cracked heels. Before I used this cream, my heels were so dry, hard, and cracked that I just hated them. I was in the market for heel repair cream so I picked this one up and boy it does make a difference. I loved the feel of the cream, it's non-greasy and even has some shimmer to it. It absorbs quickly and softens even the driest of skin.
Overall, I would recommend this to anyone with the same heel problems as me because this cream does wonders.
Until next time guys have a great day and stay tuned!

Review: Suki to-go Jump Start Nourishing Kit
Hey Everyone,
It's review time! Time to review the Suki to-go Jump Start Nourishing Kit. So here goes nothing:
Exfoliate Foaming Cleanser: Exfoliate it did but foaming it did not do. It created suds when I added water to it but halfway through cleansing it just absorbed into my skin and there was no suds to wash with. The smell wasn't pleasant either.
Moisture Rich Cleansing Lotion: This was very pleasant to use. It felt like velvet on your skin but the smell I couldn't stand.
Concentrated Nourishing Toner: I wasted about 3/4 of the toner because it came out of the packet so fast but I managed to get some onto a cotton ball. As it said in the name it's very nourishing and feels refreshing on your skin but again the smell was a problem.
Pure Facial Moisture-Nourishing: This was a oil that got all over the place when I opened the packet. It made my skin very oily. Because I have combination skin it was like adding oil to oil. But when I woke up in the morning my skin didn't feel oily.
Overall I thought this nourishing kit was very good if you're willing to spend the money for it. The smell was an issue because I can't stand strong smells but if you like the smell of lemongrass then this is the kit for you.
Until next time guys have a great day and stay tuned!

My third Julep Referral and Referral Link Info
Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to thank the person who was my third Julep referral, I think Brooke was her name. Because she took the August box this month I got 1,000 Julep reward points to use on future boxes, add-ons, and other things. I love the points system. It's fun to get add-ons with them.
If you're thinking about joining Julep you can use my referral link: http://www.julep.com/rewardsref/index/refer/id/43858/
Or use my unique invitation code: 3377066
When at checkout use the code FREEBOX to get your box for free but you have to pay $3.99 for shipping. Once you're a maven you get free shipping plus 20% off all nail color and product.
Please check out my blog post on my second Julep referral for a disclaimer about the free box. It's near the bottom of the post.
Until next time guys have a great day and stay tuned!

Review and Swatch of Bondi New York's Fuschia-Istic
Hey Everyone,
Since swatching nail color is all the rage, I decided to swatch all my nail colors I get, regardless of brand. So here's a swatch of Bondi New York's Fuschia-Istic:
Sorry my lighting and camera suck. I'm working on getting a new camera soon, or maybe I can use my cell phone. Who knows? Fuschia-Istic went on a little thick and uneven but soon got better. I love the color, so pretty.
Next on the swatch list is Bondi New York's Brick Road. But until then have a great day guys and stay tuned!

NEW BOX! Bondi New York Nail Polish Subscription Box for August 2013
Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to check in and share with you a new subscription box that I just got in the mail. It's from a east coast nail polish company that just started up in March of this year. It's name is Bondi New York and they are a 5-free fashion forward nail polish company that has amazing customer service. Anytime you have a question they'll answer you pretty quickly. Their nail polish is free of the top five toxins that are found in most nail polish. Each box contains 3 nail polishes and a deluxe beauty product that's organic or all natural. I'll post a picture of my box below so you get an idea of what to expect when you sign up for a subscription.
Sorry the picture is blurry but that's just how my camera is. In my box I got:
Suki to-go Jump Start Nourishing Kit 7 piece face and body system: I have heard of Suki before and I heard they're pretty good at what they do. I can't wait to try this system out and review it. I will try it tonight before I go to bed.
Fuschia-Istic: Now, I don't have a fuschia nail polish yet and can't wait to try it out after my run with the color NYPD is over. This nail polish is bright and vibrant and is the perfect color for a day at the beach.
NYPD: This is the color I was hoping for in my box. It's a bright blue color that is bold and makes a statement when on your nails. I'll post a picture below of my nails done in NYPD. I used two coats and a shiny top coat.
And last but not least...Brick Road: I don't have a yellow like this in my collection but I love this yellow. It's bright, cheerful, and makes me think of sunshiny days. I can't wait to try this one out after I'm done wearing Fuschia-Istic.
That's all that was in my box for this month. I can't wait to see what's in store for September and am looking forward to future boxes from Bondi. Stay tuned for more reviews. I promise I'll keep this blog up to date from now on. Have a great day!

My second Julep referral and new code for a free box
Hi Everyone,
Just a side note that for now on I'll be doing all my beauty reviews on this blog except for beauty reviews that I do on products I get from Influenster/BzzAgent/Swaggable. Just so you know.
Anyway, on to the subject of this blog post. First I'd like to thank Tara for using my Julep referral link and code when signing up for her first maven box. I do get a 1,000 rewards points credit for this referral and for those of you who do sign up to be a Julep Maven you get a referral link and code of your own to give to others so you get the same credit as I do.
On to the new code for a free Julep box. The new code that came out this year is the code FREEBOX. Use it to get your first box for free but you DO have to pay $3.99 for shipping but once you get your intro box you are a maven and will get free shipping on all your orders plus maven boxes and you get 20% off on nail color and products on the Julep website.
Just to clarify though-When you sign up for a free box you are automatically signed up for a subscription service and will get charged $19.99 a month unless you cancel by calling Julep Customer Service or skipping that month's box. If you choose to skip you must do so by clicking on "Monthly Maven Activities" on your profile page and clicking on the "Skip this Month" button at the bottom of the page between the 20th and 24th of the month.
Hope the above paragraph clears things up for people. Until next time have a great day and stay tuned to more from me.
