OPI Bubble Bath and Essie Ballet Slippers Dupe $1

Image
I bought mine from the dollar store for $1 and the top coat was also $1 what a steal! It went on very smooth and two coats gave me that sophisticated look that the OPI and Essie does. I'm so amazed by this! Just had to share! LA Colors 517 In the nude 2 coats with 1 of the top coat

Summer Friday R + R Mask Review and Ingredients Breakdown (compared to Overtime Mask)

Image
P.S. Overtime Mask Ingredients breakdown is below but I have yet to try it YET, I'm not sure if I want to commit, maybe I'll get  sample, but there are so many reviews already at this point I'm sure there's a more thorough one out there. The first obvious comparison is the price. There's an $8 difference for the same amount of product and the R+R is their most expensive mask. $4 more than their original cult favorite Jet Lag Mask which started the company.  I tried the Jet Lag and I wasn't impressed, I kept trying it again and again and I seriously don't know what it was. My eyes, first of all, were overly sensitive to it I kept tearing up and I haven't seen that on anyone's review (I'm just probably extra weird). Under makeup, as a mask, as an overnight mask, taken off with just water, taken off with a warm damp cloth, still no avail. I tried it for a month. It was such a bummer as everyone loves it and I really wanted it to work for me...

ELF Camo Concealer vs. Fenty? Mixed Together?

Image
Overall Thoughts: I love the Fenty concealer it is lightweight and medium in coverage so I wanted a lighter shade for when I want a brighter undereye. Then this Elf camo came out and decided to try it. It is a thinner consistency than the Fenty and Elf is a matte formula while the Fenty is a demi-matte and is a more flexible feel. The elf doesn't cling on dry lines but it's just a matte formula so lines if you have a lot, will be a bit more obvious. It's definitely worth the $5 just that it oxidizes so the shading will be tricky to figure out.  ELF Shade: light peach Fenty Concealer and Foundation: 210 Full Video Down Below after the pictures Mixed together it was very nice, blended well with each other and worked to brighten my undereye so I don't need to purchase another Fenty! I'll be trying to mix it with my other concealers to see if it blends well with others like my Too Faced born this way and Tarte shape tape. Left is ELF (light peach) t...

Lululemon Align Dupe (95% dupe for $30!!!) and also Gymshark Dreamy Dupe

Image
Lululemon Align 25" Size 2 $98 It is very veryyyyyy soft due to its nulu fabric which is I think the blend that Lululemon themselves curated to have this feel. Yes, the aligns pill but you can easily take those off and as long as you  COLD WASH  them in DELICATE and HANG DRY they will be fine for a very long time. If they do have a rip, you can easily contact lululemon and they will either give you a gift card or just exchange.  Colorfulkoala Brushed Buttery Soft High Waisted Yoga Leggings Size XS $28.99 https://amzn.to/2FSTYO9  (the BRUSHED on the label is important and the price is $28 the $22 is NOT the same, the links are exactly what they are just to be sure because that's how I ended up with the original ones the first time) Very much so just like the aligns in feel (copied that nulu blend) and fit but without the logo. The seam on the waistband is a bit thicker but not noticeable, can't feel either. It's definitely a bit thi...

Glossier Products Review and First Impressions

Natural Deodorant Comparison (aluminum free) and My favorite so far

Image
Natural Deodorant is gaining so much popularity these days, I've always used the Secret Clinical or random ones from the Philippines as we always have some at the store (we have a Filipino store lol). I started transitioning to natural deodorants because I found that no matter how much I scrub my underarms clean before applying deodorant somehow there is still some weird smell hours later. Hours and hours of research later, I found that maybe my deodorants were blocking my glands too much that they can't air out and artificial scent and other chemicals aren't doing anything but masking the scent and clogging my pores. Here are some I've tried and not all are faves!!! NOTE: When switching to natural deodorant it will be rough for a while as your body releases toxins etc from previous deodorants or just from being blocked for a while. IT'S OKAY. What helped me was detoxing my underarms with the Aztec Clay mask, bought a tub, followed the instructions but instead ...

THE Ultimate All Nighter Dupe and it's $8

Image
It works just as good as my Urban Decay All Nighter and fraction of the cost. Also cruelty-free! Amount: $8 Size: 3.38 fl oz ONLY CON: I really can't get along with the smell it's not fragranced so it has that chemical smell? I'm not sure. So I spray this then the Mario Badescu on top just so I can't really smell it but if you love unscented products just fan it off right away so you won't have to deal with it. It's not horrid I'm just sensitive to chemical smells. UD All Nighter: $32 4fl oz a bit more product but that price tag!!! I was at a wedding and after party, my makeup lasted ALL NIGHT. GET THIS SPRAY ALREADY!
