RoC MULTI CORREXION NOURISH Stress Repair Night Cream ($24.99), has been, in the words of its …

INGLOT cosmetics, which I have reviewed before, added Colour Play Mascara ($10.00) to their vast line in 5 eye-popping colors (01, 02, 03, 04 and 05; pictured in order).

At first, when looking at the colors, one can feel a bit intimidated, yet, when applied in the correct manner… all are wearable! Don’t be fooled by their names such as Arsenic, Chlorophyll and Kava Kava …

I’m always up for a challenge to try to tan my pasty Irish skin. I have tried St. Tropez products in the past, and have not used it for years. I stopped tanning, however, I was excited to give it a try when I received a goody box from St. Tropez.
