Shopping Haul

2010-02-20T08:49:00.000-08:00

Hey Guys and Gals,
So yesterday I did some retail therapy :D and came back with a nice but little Haul. I would have made a video but I felt I might as well update my blog since I haven't done that in a while.

So here is what I picked up yesterday! :)

This is a leave in conditioner
Features and Benefits:

Paraben Free
No artificial colors or synthetic fragrances
Bottle made from 50% recycled material
88% organic content
Shea Butter - excellent moisturizing and conditioning benefits, rich with natural fatty acids and other nutrients
Sweet Almond Oil - strong emollient with natural fatty acids which adds moisture for soft, supple hair and a conditioned scalp
Wheat & Rice Amino Acids â€“ penetrate hair to help to increase moisture retention, strengthens and promotes a glossy finish
Hibiscus â€“ anti-inflammatory, astringent and anti free radical properties work to restore hairâ€™s natural barrier
Chamomile - soothing aromatherapy fragrance, offers anti-irritant benefits for a healthy scalp

Features and Benefits

The L'Oréal Paris Research Laboratories have specifically formulated Lash Boosting Technology to maximise your lash appearance. How ? Each Lash Boosting product contains :
- A unique pro-keratin complex of fortifying amino acids, Panthenol and Ceramide. It boosts lash health, making bare lashes smoother and shinier.
- Arginine, one of the prinicple amino acids found in Keratin (the main component of the hair and lashes), known to reinforce and protect lashes

So these are my two major finds of the day I will be doing a review on each of these products in the future!

Also another product I am totally in love with right now....

Benefits	Technology
Ultra-fine texture for a "no makeup" look and feel Seamless, homogeneous makeup result; skin looks perfect close-up	7000 micro-vibrations per minute softly break down the featherweight mineral powder
Skin feels smoother and softer after continued use Skin appears visibly healthier after continued use	Vibrations stimulate skin through «micro-massages»

After 4 weeks of application, women see significant improvement of skin, post-makeup removal* :

Skin is smoother

Skin looks healthier

Skin is more even toned

Skin looks more radiant

*Test: 4 week product usage, consumer perception of 50 women

Q & A

"What are the differences between applying a regular mineral powder foundation with a brush and Ôscillation Powerfoundation?"
The vibrating applicator of Ôscillation Powerfoundation creates an ultra-fine, featherweight texture for a seamless makeup result. It also provides precision and control, resulting in point-by-point perfection. Lastly, the finish from our vibrating applicator is smooth and refined with fuller coverage and 14 hour wear. Never messy, Ôscillation Powerfoundation provides the convenience of all-in-one portable packaging.
"Do I need a setting powder with this product?"
No, Ôscillation Powerfoundation will give you a pixel-precise complexion for 14 hours, without the need for a setting powder.
"How do I clean the applicator?"
Do not attempt to clean the sponge with water as moisture will cause damage. Instead, use a tissue to remove excess powder on the surface. Replacement wands (without battery) are available for purchase online or at your Lancôme counter.

Even without all the benefits for your skin it offers GREAT coverage and it feels WEIGHTLESS!

Anyways I hope you enjoyed! These products are definitely worth it! Not very budget friendly but definitely worth the INVESTMENT!

Have a great Day!

Excited!

2010-02-16T05:40:00.000-08:00

So today a girlfriend of mine told me about this site that I had never heard of before so I decided i would check it out and when I took a look at it I was pleasantly surprised! The Site is called BH Cosmetics http://www.bhcosmetics.com/

They have mostly palettes but they are awesome and at a reasonable price! and the colors are beautiful!

Unfortunately you can't follow them on Facebook or Twitter as far as I know I do plan on looking into it further however but I think they are definitely worth mentioning here :D

Enjoy!

My addiction ;)

2010-02-13T19:59:00.000-08:00

So I was just thinking to myself the other day as I walked into Shoppers Drugstore to pick up a perscription hmmm I wonder if there are any good sales on in Cosmetics :) ofcourse I couldnt help myself figuring it would be fine to look promising myself I wouldnt buy anything....

Well I ended up coming out with a new eyeshadow from Gosh and a Quo Bronzing powder brush. Really that doesnt seem like alot but when you take into account the amount each purchase cost when I supposedly am suppose to be budget conscious well there in lies the problem LOL.

The truth be told however I really spend any more then my budget can allow in when it comes to cosmetics but it did lead me to wonder am I OBSESSED?

Probably but all things considered I feel it is an awesome addiction and I garauntee you there is no rehab out there for makeup addictions LOL

Ceramide and your hair

2010-02-07T11:32:00.001-08:00

Hello again Ladies (and possibly gentlemen)!
So I have been wanting to look this up for a bit but I just haven't had the time so while I am in the mode of creating videos and updating my blog I figure now is as good a time as any.

Recently I have been hearing alot about Ceramide and didnt know what it was so I did some research and found this site, http://juvenescent.wordpress.com/2009/05/14/ceramides-and-your-hair/.
I looked up just Ceramide but it only told me the medical verison of what it does and not what it does for the Hair skin, (at least in Laymens Terms) but this link seems to explain it quite well.

It also list several products that Ceramide as part of there formula so you can purchase them yourself.

Hope this helps out anyone who had the same questions as I did :D

P.S. My videos are in the process of being converted and will be up on youtube in now time :D or at least by today :D

I was looking up some budget conscious cosmetic sites today and came across this www.cherryculture.com.
I have some makeup that I originally got from a Lawton's Drugstore at home and I wasn't sure where you could get it other places until I stumble upon this site :D I own 2 of the LA Girl High Definition Eyeshadow Trio pallettes in Mojito and Caruso. I haven't tried them as of yet but I have a contest coming up on youtube that I plain on putting in an a couple of video entries for that I could use both of the pallettes so I am looking forward to that. I will place a review on those products on here once I have :D

Check it out well worth it!

Whiter Teeth on A Budget! :D

2010-01-31T07:20:00.000-08:00

So recently I was on facebook and I seen an ad on the sidebar stating Whiter teeth without spending hundreds of dollars at a dentist or through a specialist and I thought hey is this even possible? Even the products at Walmart and other mainstream stores were no less then 40$ and that to me as frugal as I am was a bit of a stretch, but when I clicked on this link,http://www.newswebdaily.com/health/white-teeth/index1.php?t202kw=300x250&t202id=5932 I found out that not only is it possible but that it was a Fellow New Brunswicker who stumbled upon it in the first place :)

I have order mine and hope to receive it this week but it only costed me .95 CAD per item that I order!
Whether it is just samples or not is another story but it did say it was a 14 day supply so I am excited none the less.

I was hoping to get my teeth whitened before my wedding and I certainly didnt want to pay hundreds of dollars to get those pearly whites!

Just my thought for the day check it out! :D
