Having reviewed Stila’s Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eyeliner in Snow last year, I started using the same eyeliner in Carbon Black, too — as it made a precise line very easily and never smudged nor feathered and was also long-wearing. I could go thick or thin, and I loved the felt tip’s cool touch when applying the color on my upper lash line.

This year, everyone went mad-crazy over both the Smudge Stick Waterproof Eye Liner and Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner ($20.00) in Turquoise, making it very …

Let me tell you what happened as I was perusing the aisles in my local drugstore… I happened upon these New Limited Edition Sugar Coat and Fuzzy Coat Nail Colors by Sally Hansen ($5.99 each). I stopped dead in my tracks. That’s what happened!

It’s also a one-step application, similar to OPI‘s Liquid Sand where you simply polish the nail and no top …

With names like Naked, Truth, Vain, Dare, Virgin and Vixen — how could one not want to try these newly launched lipglosses from vbeauté? I was so taken with founder, Julie Macklowe, that I reached out via to review her new Lip Spread Anti-Age Hydrating Lip Glosses ($28.00 each).
I started seeing ads for the brand in both Vogue and Allure Magazines, and was even more intrigued! The picture of her attending the 2013 Met Gala put me over the edge. She looked simply amazing! I had to know more about …

First things first: I love using the Glo Brilliant Personal Teeth Whitening Device, yet, it was given to me and costs nearly $200.00 at Sephora – and I buy my refills for $45.00 when needed.

It works. It’s won awards and is incredibly efficient. With that being said, I agreed to sample the Prime Time Smile Active Blue Teeth Whitening Kit ($44.00) because it was more affordable and was said to whiten teeth in less than 30-minutes!

It’s an easy enough product to use. You first apply the whitening gel via a pen …
