Happy 2010 with some reviews!!

Happy New Years!!

Starting off 2010 with 3 reviews all of them inexpensive and work great! Let's start off with my nyx concealer I did a review on my youtube channel on this.



Basically what I said was that the concealer does wonders at covering up blemishes but it's a drying, accentuates fine lines and not easy to blend. But what I recently found is that if you add a little bit of water to the concealer brush it will help moisten the concealer and make it easier to blend. Also, the jar seems small but it is packed with a lot of product to last you for more than two months. The concealer can last for a little over 8 hours. They have 3 color options I think.. my color is in beige. Only $5 at cherryculture.com

The next review is the NYC Waterproof pencil eyeliner. It definitely is waterproof and does not smudge at all. The color payoff is great! What I find it's easier to apply on the top and bottom lash line but in the waterline u kind of have to run it through back and forth a couple times to get the color to show. It is able to last for 8 hours or more on the top and bottom lash line but in the waterline maybe for 6 hours will update on the waterline because I'm not so sure yet. Only 3.99 at any drugstore.


My last review is on the Loreal Original Voluminous mascara. My lashes pretty much don't need that much lengthening in my opinion but more volume. This mascara provides both and it is by far my favorite mascara at the moment! It's not to liquid or clumpy and it does not flake. The color payoff is great, it's dark enough to provide that volume and bring out those lashes. One coat would be good for me but I love applying two coats or more for extra volume. It's only $8 at any drugstore.

Hope this helped out if u want to ask me more
questions on the products please don't hesitate

Avon's Advance Techniques

SOoo ladies I been on the hunt for good cheap hair products and I came across this advance techniques hair serum. This serum is specifically for dry ends. It helps tame those flyaways/frizzies and repairs dry damaged hair while smoothing out the hair.

Let me just say its been only a couple of days I been using this and so far so good definitely see some results! It really tames them flyaways and smooths out the hair leaving it shiny and silky. Also it has UV-filters for added sun protection.

It's not expensive at all only $4.99 and right now it's on sale for 3.99 at avon.com. The product smells divine, it leaves the hair smelling so fresh and clean.

I want to use it for at least a month or so that way I can give a more detailed review on this product. I use to use the garnier fructise serum but I find the advance techniques to be waaaaaay better..the quality is way more finer than fructis. But anyways be on the look out for that review on my youtube channel ladies.

This is one of my fave products of the month, more to come!<333

New Hair Remedy!

HELLO THERE!!

I know! long time I haven't blogged hopefully I haven't been forgotten =(

But I hope u been tuning in to my youtube channel I have posted a few vids on there for this month and I also have a twitter because I wanna be like the cool kids, j.k! I guess I just got it "just cuz" lol w.e!

Anywho I been experimenting with my hair and I wanted to heal it from all these horrible heat appliances and split ends. At first Iwas going for the one time a month I using a heat appliance and not dying my hair as much as 3 or 4 times in a month! Yea I know horrible.


I know your hair is basically dead anyways but there are ways that help the hair appear healthy, shiny, bouncy and all those pretty things lol. Well since I couldn't help to use a straightening iron since I love wearing my hair straight most the time I mannaged to cut the use to about only 3 times a month I can use a heat appliance. Also I only dye my hair once a month. My hair has improved greatly I will be posting more detailed pictures as soon as I can.

I wanted to let u know on one of my hair secrets in keeping it shiny and silky smooth.. especially if you have dry, brittle hair such as those with curly and wavy hair.

Basically the recipe consist of honey and any hair conditioning of your choice. I noticed it works best when using a really good conditioner such as treseme which I lovvve or paul mitchell but that's a little on the expensive side.

These are the steps:
-Mix an equal amount of honey and conditioner together
-Apply to dry hair (do not wash hair before procedure)mainly focusing on the ends and roots
-Leave in hair for 20 minutes (better results leave in for at least 40 minutes) the longer left the better.
-then rinse out with warm water and shampoo and conditioner hair as usual

Below: I put a little more honey because my hair is really dry but u don't wanna put more conditioner than honey because it will make your hair oily.

After you style and hair is completely dry you instantly feel the softness and you can see the shine..Definitely try it out and let meknow how it goes for you! I use this remedy all the time once a week and it really helps my hair to be more easily manageable, shiny and smooth!

Don't forget to check out my lastest video on how to get that sexy bronzy look that celebrities such as Charlize Theron, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez and others..

My bronzy look below, please give me feedback =)

Tyra's National Real Hair Day

Hey hey hey! Hope everyone had a great memorial day weekend...I had a great one with my fam. We did barbQ's and had wine and all that good stuff. So this is a random blog about.......... TYRA BANKS! Well let me tell you how much I love this lady, she cracks me up especially on her talk show. Love her style and makeup and of course her HAIRSTYLES!!

Her new season premiere started September 7 or 8th I think but anyways she declared to do a national "real" hair day on September 8, 2009. Throughout the season she will be wearing her real hair at times and other times she will wear her weaves. I love this idea because she is showing people that it's ok to look natural and still look beautiful just like when she did the episode without makeup and the cellulite one. It's a great idea because the media now and days is all about consuming and very deceiving they make it seem like you have to have the perfect lips, eyes, body, hair, this and that! But anyways I think her hair is beautiful naturally! All it takes a little lesson on how to wear basic makeup or basic hairstyling tips to look good, thank god for youtube and all them great makeup/hair gurus! Well what do u girl's think of tyra's hair?

Her stylist came on the show to do her hair..
Results are below:


And I didnt get to watch mondays episode but i know that on that show tyra kissed rapper lil Bow wow!!!!!! I KNOW CRAZY RIGHT?? What is really good with her, I mean for real?? lol


They were doing this little freestyle rap thing and tyra started her little freestyle and towards the end she was just saying "give me a kiss on the lips bow wow" LMAO watch this clip of them

ANWHOOOO moving on here are some bridal picture looks that I did for my youtube channel thingy
This camera washes the colors out!
It's def more dramatic in person
Trust me.


Let's talk smoothies ladies..yes smootheis as in drink. I loooooove making smoothies especially banana strawberry smoothies! I decided to let u in on my secret recipe to making my home made straberry and banana smoothie. If you don't like/allergic to bananas u can substitute it for something else or just have it with strawberries only.

Ingredients:
Frozen straberries
1 banana
any kind of fruit juice i use "tropicana-tropical punch"
ice cubes
blender

Once you have everything dump it all in the blender and mix it away! It should look something like this....

MmmmmmMMMm Gulp Gulp Ahhhh Goood!!
Have a good one!
