Crème-to-Powder Eyeshadow Sticks in Orchid Shimmer. It’s a really pretty wine color that stays on all day. The other end has a sponge blender that works really well.
These polishes from top to bottom are:
Jocelyn — Cranberry shimmer with holographic microglitter
Laurel — Raven feather silk
Paulina — Peacock duochrome
Michaela — Blackcurrant microglitter shimmer
Nicola — Orange glow-in-the-dark iridescent microglitter top coat. Charge it up in the light for maximum glow after dark
Myriam — Casino red crème
You can probably tell from my choices that I love dark, sparkly polishes for fall! I love them all, especially Paulina. The glow in the dark top coat is for my youngest daughter, who loves it and the bright red was my free gift. Quite a hall, eh?!
Leave a comment and let me know if you are a Maven and what you received this month.
Even though it still isn’t boot weather (and I have a gorgeous new pair to break in), it is getting cooler in Kansas City. I went to the zoo today and the weather was beautiful, and a little chilly in the morning!
This week, as I begin reviewing new Fall products I am loving and innovative BB water foundation, new nail polish and top coat, Fall body mists, and a quick teeth cleanser and whitener.
Leave a comment and let me know what you are loving this week!
Smashbox Camera Ready BB Water SPF 30
Smashbox Camera Ready BB Water SPF 30 ($42 USD) — Your skin needs a drink. Meet our first and only BB with a water-like texture that delivers multiple benefits in just one drop. Why get wet? Our built-in primer water technology means a liquid silk-consistency—it literally glides onto your face, blends easily and moves with your skin. Because it’s alcohol-free, there is no drying, cracking or caking during wear. The ultra-hydrating, oil-free formula also creates a sheer, radiant finish that makes you really love your skin in every conceivable light. Here come the compliments.
What I think: I needed a new foundation and was really excited to try this. And I am extremely pleased with it! It is very liquidy — I put a dropper full on the back of my hand and immediately need my BeautyBlender to apply it on my face. It feels like I have nothing on, but it covers my dark circles and red spots. It actually gives me a medium coverage and is full coverage for me with two coats. It also gives a beautiful glow to my skin.
Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Tribal Vibe and Top Coat – Following the major success of the first Miracle Gel launch, Sally Hansen has done it again, developing the new & improved volumizing Miracle Gel Top Coat – adding to the award-winning Sally Hansen Miracle Gel collection: the most buzzed about at-home nail system and the closest thing to a salon gel manicure at home.
When partnered with the Miracle Gel shades, Miracle Gel Top Coat volumizes as it protects. The Top Coat formula delivers 2x the volume to your manicure – creating dramatically fuller-looking nails with a high-gloss, mirror shine finish.
The Tribal Vibe collection adds seven new sun-baked shades to the permanent line up: Cream of the Crop (ivory with a hint of warmth), Tribal Sun (fiery coral like the setting sun), Rhythm & Blue (mirrors the hue of a bright blue sky), Totem-ly Yours (an appealing dusty rose), Per-Suede ( the color of rich reddish leather), Terra-Coppa (melds the gleam of copper with the earthy appeal of pottery) and Buffalo Nickel (a cool, classic silver white).
What I think: I am very hard on my nails. I work on a computer all day and wash dishes, fold laundry, review products…my hands are always busy! The combination of the polish and top coat lasted a full week without major chipping. That’s amazing. And the colors are gorgeous, too!
Available at mass market retailers near you.
Essence of Beauty Dark Violet Fine Fragrance Body Mist
Essence of Beauty Kiss of Honey Fine Fragrance Body Mist
Essence of Beauty Dark Violet Fine Fragrance Body Mist ($6.99 8 oz) — With notes of bergamot, violet, jasmine, and rose, warmed by sensual musk and a hint of sandalwood and vanilla, Dark Violet is an evocative, striking scent.
Essence of Beauty Kiss of Honey Fine Fragrance Body Mist ($6.99 8 oz) — Opening on a note of sweet nectarine blended with honey blossom, water jasmine and a hint of sensual cashmere woods, Kiss of Honey is soft, warm and enveloping.
As an added bonus helping keep skin at its best when temperatures drop, both Body Mists feature skin-nourishing vitamins and aloe, and are free of parabens, phthalates, petrolatum, and gluten.
What I think: Both of these are fab Fall scents, but are so different from each other. The Dark Violet is a deep floral. It’s warm and I can really smell the vanilla, but it is sweet and floral, too. Kiss of Honey is rich and sweet, with refreshing nectarine and soft cashmere. I’ll enjoy wearing both of them!
Available now at CVS/pharmacy locations nationwide.
The Supersmile Quikee
The Supersmile Quikee ($18 USD) — invented by Dr. Irwin Smigel is a fast on-the-go teeth whitening polish. It is designed to remove staining, freshen breath, and clean teeth with Supersmile’s formulated proprietary form of calcium peroxide, CALPROX®. The Quikee is made for those moments where brushing your teeth isn’t an option-in between your work day, last-minute meetings, before a date, whatever the occasion, Quikee’s are there to save the day.
What I think: This is so cool! Squeeze a little on your teeth and move it around with your tongue. Breath is fresh and teeth are cleaner and a little whiter. Mostly, it freshens up your mouth after lunch, for an interview, etc. Keep it in your purse and go!
Deadlines to meet. Trains to catch. Speeding cars. Loud sirens. In the hustle and bustle of today’s fast paced world, it is easy to lose sight of the true beauty that surrounds us. It can be a challenge to slow down and appreciate the wondrous world all around. This fall, China Glaze® encourages you to do just that with its The Great Outdoors collection. Continuing on its 2015 Colour Adventure, China Glaze® explores the vast tones and textures of the wilderness. These 12 new nature-inspired shades inspire you to ground yourself, even if for just a moment, and appreciate the treasures of the great outdoors that shimmer, sparkle and wow.

I was sent this entire fabulous collection to review for my honest opinion! It is so gorgeous! I swatched all of the colors with two coats and no top coat. Here are my swatches:
S’more Fun
My Lodge or Yours?
Cabin Fever
S’more Fun is very bright! I usually don’t wear bright colors but it’s really fun! My Lodge or Yours? is gorgeous! The perfect pinky nude for fall. I love duo chromes and Cabin Fever is a subtle one. The orange is very autumnal.
Let’s Dew It
Check Out The Silver Fox
Sleeping Under the Stars
Let’s Dew it is such a pretty glitter top coat. It has blue, silver and a purple cast to it. Love! Gone Glamping changes colors in the light from green to gold. Sleeping under the Stars is the most interesting of the bunch. It is an extremely dark blue, but it has tiny bits of glitter in it. So cool!
Take a Hike
Check Out The Silver Fox
Free Bear Hugs
My Take a Hike swatch isn’t the best, but besides my lack of polish skills, you can still tell that it’s a rich color. Two coats completely covers. Check Out the Silver Fox is a bit darker in person, my swatch caught the sunlight and looks a bit lighter in the photo. It will be a fun metallic for celebrations in the fall through the holidays. Free bear hugs is one of my favorites, I love a dark red!
Change Your Altitude
Pondering
Wood You Wanna?
Change Your Altitude is a creamy gray, a really nice fall neutral. For a gorgeous, deep duo chrome, Pondering is a lovely blue. And Would you Wanna? is deep, shimmery brown.
All of these shades make me so excited for fall! I love the richer nail colors and will be sporting them soon!

Summer is moving along, still hot, though! It was only 89 today in Kansas City, so that’s better than it has been.
This week I have been taking care of the skin on my face, body, even around my toes! The products I have been loving this week are:
derma e Purifying Collection
derma e Purifying Collection — It happens day in and day out. Oil, sweat, bacteria and micropollutants build up on skin and clog pores, leading to visible damage such as acne, blemishes, sensitivity, fine lines, wrinkles, thinning or sagging skin. That’s why derma e® brings you Purifying Skincare. Doctor developed and clinically tested, it’s like a deep detox program to cleanse and reboot skin every day so it glows with pure health for years to come.

What I think: I have sensitive skin and have been testing the Purifying Toner Mist ($15.50 USD) and the Purifying 2-in-1 Charcoal Mask ($19.50 USD). The mist is refreshing on the skin, but it doesn’t irritate my sensitive skin. The mask gently exfoliates and leaves my skin glowing!
Lumene Blur Pore and Line Minimizer ($19.99 USD) — Optical line and pore minimizer with instantly beautifying effect. The Lumene Bright Now Blur Line & Pore Minimizer makes skin instantly more beautiful and even-looking. Helps to control shine and provides a natural-looking, all day matte finish.

Formulated without parabens, formaldehyde donors, mineral oil. 30 ml, 1.0 FL.OZ.
What I think: What to do about blotchy summer skin? Use this blur pore and line minimizer! It instantly smoothes skin and minimizes lines, pores and other imperfections. Plus it feels light on, which is important during the summer.
Available at mass market retailers.
Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Spray Moisturizer
Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Spray Moisturizer ($6.49 USD) — With summer in full swing, you want to ensure that your bare skin is hydrated all season long. Thanks to Vaseline® Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Spray Moisturizer, you can get the moisture you need, especially after a day in the sun. This product is a quick, convenient spray lotion that moisturizes and absorbs in seconds, to heal dry skin. Now infused with micro-droplets of Vaseline® Jelly and pure aloe, skin feels instantly hydrated, never sticky or greasy – it’s the perfect item to throw in your beach bag to keep skin feeling fresh throughout those long, hot days.
What I think: I have to say that I do love spray moisturizers. They are quick and easy to use. This moisturizer has a clean scent and feels cool when sprayed on. I spray it down my arms and legs then rub it in. Fast and it leaves my skin so soft! Perfect for burned skin or even just skin that is dry from chlorine and self-tanner.
Vaseline® Intensive Care Aloe Soothe Spray Moisturizer is available in food, drug and mass retailers for $6.49 (SRP).
Q’urNail

Contains 6 antimicrobial and 5 antioxidants in one formula, which works in two stages:
·Eliminates/prevents fungus
·Purifies/heals the nails and adjacent skin
What I think: I haven’t had to use this yet, but I like how if myself or anyone in my family has nail fungus problems, this will help the appearance and feel of the skin around the nails. Very important for sandal season.
Happy 4th of July! I hope you all had a great day!
I was lucky enough to be sent samples from two of Sally Hansen’s new nail collection for my honest review. They are the Pearl Crush and the Insta-Ombre collections. They are both fun for sparkly summer nail looks:
Shell and Tell
Silver Scallop
Mer-Mint
This summer, it’s time to get cultured—with pearls, that is. Sally Hansen introduces Pearl Crush; a collection of eight new Special Effect polishes that give nails an eye-catching, shimmery finish. Inspired by the season’s iridescent trend, the Pearl Crush polishes have a unique combination of pigments that interact with layers of large, faceted glitter particles. The resulting effect: a 3D crushed pearl look that plays off light, lending a lustrous, vibrant look to summer manicures. Choose a softer tone or go dark—either way; you’ll want to wear these precious “pearls” everywhere you go!
SHADES: Oy-ster It Up!: Aw, shucks—this true white with faceted glitter catches the light beautifully, She Sells: Whether on the seashore or the city streets, this pale blush hue is pretty, pink perfection, Lady Crab: No need to pinch yourself—this dreamy hot pink really is as steamy as it gets!, Rainbow Fish: Casting off icy tones, this iridescent blue is quite the catch, Shell & Tell: The secret is out: A lovely lilac like this doesn’t come around every day, Mer-Mint: This splashy, soothing seafoam green is loaded with sea-inspired shimmer, Silver Scallop: Reflect on this modern take on metallics—a shape shifting silver that appears constantly in motion and Clam Digger: This lava-rock black stands out with flecks of phosphorescent-green glitter.
Layer On Lilac
Scarlet Spark
Cobalt Coat
It’s official: Ombré is the look of the decade. From runways to red carpets, from highlights to home decor, a gradated wash of color is perpetually on trend. Now, Sally Hansen makes it easy to create a sparkling ombré manicure with new Insta-Ombre Special Effect.
Available in eight high-impact glitter shades, this clever and innovative ombre-in-a-bottle makes it easy for women to achieve the look in just three simple steps. First, apply one coat to clean, dry nails. Next, apply a second coat from mid-nail to the tip. Finally, apply a third coat to only the nail tip. Voila: A radiant, wash of ombre color at your fingertips.
As the first and last word in nail color, Sally Hansen offers eight shades to match every mood: Copper Cap: Beige that grows into a warm, copper glow, Cobalt Coat: Blue, from barely-there to intense, Layer On Lilac: A cool-toned take on purple, Scarlet Spark: A true red that fades into a whisper, Gold Grade: Metallic glitter, from quiet to saturated, Fuchsia-Nista: A bright pink with the slightest hint of violet, Jade Fade: An enviable emerald hue, Grey-diant: A stunningly sparkled fade from light to black.
What I think: Both looks are so much fun! I love the soft, shimmering colors of the Pearl Crush collection, they remind me of the ocean. And the Insta-Ombre are so much fun, especially for summer parties and nights out. It is also really cute for festival season.

Happy Mother’s Day to all of the mothers and caregivers out their that do so much for others! My daughters spoiled me today and I hope you all received the Queen’s treatment, too!
My faves this week are a random mix of goodies. From a battery-powered manicure kit, to an eye cream + brightener duo, to an affordable self tanner, to hair fibers that make my hair look thicker, I have been testing lots of great new products!
Slim Uno Portable Manicure Kit
Slim Uno Portable Manicure Kit ($24.95 USD) — a portable battery-powered manicure kit. You can now keep your nails looking beautiful while traveling, at work, and
at home with ease. This deluxe kit combines the sonic power of Violife’s best-selling toothbrushes, with manicurist favorite nail tools, including a cuticle pusher, shaping file, emery board and buffer board.
What I think: This looked a little intimidating in the box, but it is really easy to use. It is great to carry in my purse for nail emergencies.
Avon Anew Reversalist Complete Renewal Express Dual Eye System
Avon Anew Reversalist Complete Renewal Express Dual Eye System ($30 USD) — A brightening veil + hydrating eye cream, formulated with Tri-Elastinex technology. Instantly brightens the eye area. Over time, the look of lines and wrinkles around the eyes virtually disappears.
What I think: The eye cream instantly absorbs into the skin and the brightening veil leaves the skin around my eyes glowing! I use both products in the morning and the eye cream in the evening. My eye area is completely hydrated and my fine lines are lessened.
Ocean Potion EverGlow Xtreme Self Tanning Lotion ($5.49 USD) — Moisturizing lotion creates glowing, natural looking color while avoiding the harmful rays of the sun. Subtle color begins to develop within hours. Reapply daily until desired depth of color is reached with full color achieved in only three days. For all skin tones. Coconut and sunflower oils offer rich moisturization. Cocoa and shea butter deliver deep hydration. Vitamins A, C and E help keep skin feeling soft, smooth and looking summer beautiful no matter what time of year. Aloe vera reduces inflammation. Fresh, pleasant mango-lime scent — unlike other self-tanners with unpleasant odors.
What I think: I love the scent of this self tanner (not something I usually say), it is really refreshing! I also like how it moisturizes my skin as it tans. After three days I had a medium-dark tan that wasn’t streaky at all!
Available at Wal-Mart, Target, CVS, Walgreens, Rite-Aid, Kroger, Publix, Winn-Dixie, HEB, BI-LO, www.wal-mart.com, www.drugstore.com, and other retail and online stores throughout the USA.
HairMax Hair Fibers
HairMax Hair Fibers ($35 USD) — are natural keratin protein hair building fibers that blend and statically cling to your existing hair to hide any receding areas and provide dramatic density, volume and natural looking coverage, INSTANTLY! They are the perfect solution for men and women suffering with hair loss and thinning hair who want to change the way they feel about their appearance. Balding and thinning areas instantly vanish leaving you with a natural looking full head of hair.
What I think: I have used these a couple of times now. My part and hairline are thinning, and this made my hair look fuller. I haven’t colored my roots for a few weeks and the fibers also helped hide my grays. This is really nice when I want to do a nice hair style for going out.
It is getting warmer in Kansas City and the pollen count is very high, which means I am in the middle of allergy season! Yuck! And although I can’t wear eye makeup for a while (red, itchy eyes) I still want to look as good as possible.
This week, I am loving a good-for-you nail polish, a beautiful BB cream, a moisturizing lip crayon and a fun lip balm/sneaker collaboration.
What are you loving this week? Leave a comment and let me know!
Dr.’s Remedy Mindful Mulberry Nail Polish
Dr.’s Remedy Mindful Mulberry Nail Polish ($17 USD) — Think of the awakening and blossoming that comes with warmer temperatures. This renewed juicy berry shade is stylishly tart and playful yet sweet and classic. A perfect feminine neutral. Podiatrist formulated advanced nail enamel. Long lasting, brilliant color. Enriched with Garlic Bulb Extract, Tea Tree Oil, Wheat Protein and Vitamins C and E.
What I think: This is a beautiful color — it looks great on fingernails or on toenails, now that sandal season is here! This does last a few days without chipping and is so good for the nails! Love!
L’Occitane Immortelle Precious BB Cream SPF30 ($45 USD) — This multi-purpose formula with its smooth texture helps to conceal uneven skin tone and to blemish and brighten dull skin; signs of stress and fatigue appear softened and helps to protect skin against damaging effects of photo-aging, thanks to its UV filters.
What I think: I love that this BB Cream is a combination of skincare and makeup. Not only does it cover imperfections it protects and treats my skin. It gives medium coverage and the fair color is a good match to my skin tone without being orangey.
butter LONDON Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayons ($20 USD) — Precise and easy to use, this high-shine, long-wear LIPPY Bloody Brilliant Lip Crayon will make you fall in love with crayons all over again. The eight sumptuously pigmented colours provide antioxidant protection while delivering full coverage and creamy hydration like that of a lipstick while delivering the intense shine and smoothness of a gloss. Mango Seed Oil and Marula Oil help to improve lip moisturization and Niacinamide, maintains the skin barrier for smoother, more even lip tone. The best bit – each Lip Crayon comes complete with a built-in sharpener, so you can keep the slimline applicator sharp, even on-the-go.
What I think: This lip crayon is very soft and moisturizing. There is a built-in sharpener in the lid, which means you can sharpen your crayon on the go! I love the color Teddy Boy. It’s a nude-mauve color and is very pretty for a polished look.

I have been watching the Oscars, and all of the ladies look gorgeous! It is important to choose great skincare, makeup, nail care and fragrances to pull of glam – and everyday – looks.
This week I am loving a fab skincare and foundation set, skincare for my nails and a fresh fragrance:
Glossier Phase 1 Set
Glossier Phase 1 Set ($80 USD) — Glossier is resetting the beauty game, starting with the most important thing: a perfectly primed canvas. This is skincare as makeup—a mist, moisturizer, balm, and tint, designed to work together to perfect (not conceal!) skin while requiring minimal effort on your end. All you need are your fingertips.
Products included from left to right in photo (and my opinion of them) are:
Perfecting Skin Tint: This light foundation evens out discoloration and leaves your face looking toned, smooth, and dewy. The breathable, ultra thin formula auto-fits to skin, making application as simple as throwing on moisturizer. It is very sheer, like a liquid, but you can build it to a medium coverage. I like it, but it is a bit sheer for me (I need my coverage). I think it is perfect for those who want to showcase their good skin. Comes in three shades.
Balm Dotcom: A hydrating, long-lasting, do-everything skin salve that’s packed with antioxidants and natural emollients to nourish and repair dry, irritated skin. The dense, waxy texture stays in place to seal in moisture wherever it goes. I like to use this on my cuticles and as a lip and face balm when it is very cold out.
Soothing Face Mist: This spritz is made with roses and aloe to hydrate, soothe, and leave you feeling fresh and awake, prepping your skin for the Priming Moisturizer. Also excellent as a makeup refresher and midday pick-me-up. I love the sweet, floral scent and how refreshing it is. I loving using this facial spray before my moisturizer as it hydrates my skin.
Priming Moisturizer: This moisturizes, creates an even texture and helps with redness. This comforting cream allows you to layer and build up to the perfect amount of moisture depending on climate, season, or how your skin’s feeling on any given day. I like how moisturizing this is. It is more of a moisturizer than a primer, but it does help even out skin, getting it ready for foundation.

Love2Love Jasmine and Sparkling Mimosa ($9.98 USD) — Inspired by a spectrum of colors that express a woman’s joy and sheer happiness, each scent speaks to the woman who loves the idea of being in love. These four fragrances were designed the capture a stylish duo of ingredients that reflect perfect pairs in love:
LOVE2LOVE Fresh Rose + Peach: This luscious scent opens with juicy notes of pear nectar and fresh caccis buds, evoking joy and optimism. Bulgarian rose oil infused with geranium infuses innocence and femininity, while musk and orris blend at the base bringing a dose of comforting warmth and tenderness to the fragrance.
LOVE2LOVE Jasmine + Sparkling Mimosa: Lighthearted and fresh, this fragrance represents the spirit of a radiant, carefree woman. The youthful and energetic blend of dewy peony and sparkling mimosa mingles with intoxicating jasmine and sweet pea join with warm rosewood and almond blossom at the base to wrap you in a veil of sensuality.
LOVE2LOVE Freesia + Violet Petals: Timeless and alluring, this scent begins with a sweet mix of peach blossom and lavender blooms then give way to feminine heart notes of freesia and violet blossom. The base notes of sheer musk and cedar wood emerge spontaneously.
LOVE2LOVE Orange Blossom + White Musk:A refreshing cocktail of sparkling bergamot and juicy orange notes opens this fragrance, followed by soft peony at the heart to create a feminine element. The trace of orris and white musk add a sensual aspect to the fragrance.
I have a sample of this in the Jasmine and Sparkling Mimosa scent. It is fresh and sweet, like juicy fruit — a perfect spring scent. And, it is light so you can spritz it on the body, or in your hair. Very nice and so affordable!
