Weekend Poll

Ive been trying to get things together for the 150+ follower giveaway, but I was thinking about having a contest instead of the regular old giveaway. Would you be down for a makeup/nail art contest?

If there is a makeup/nail art contest: There will be a prize for each and you may enter both separately.

If there is just a makeup contest no nail art contest or vise versa: There will be 2 winners, 2 prizes

ahh I hope that makes sense. The poll will be up all weekend and closes Monday when I will officially start it. Let me know what you think!

Also I will be working on a new blog look so don't mind it if it looks all crazy!

Hello Kitty....attempt

Look what I found at the 99 cent store the other day! Hello Kitty autocollants, basically huge stickers! I had just seen a youtube video that showed how to do a Hello Kitty nail art so I decided to try it for myself. The result ehhh.. it looks better in person but still I wasn't pleased with it. I think its the color combo and impossible cutting job.

Ooh well! Check out this video, she does an excellent job! I redid my manicure, no Hello Kitty this time.

 

Used: Wet n Wild Crystialic Ms. Thang, Femme Fatal, Sally Hansen Flawless, Wet n Wild Pink Glitter and Black, Nailene Bedazzle Fashionista Nail Art.

VB Cosmetics Cuticle Remover and Cuticle Oil Review

You may remember the VB Cosmetics Dazzle Dry system review I did not too long ago. VB Cosmetics sent me another one of their products to try, this time the Cuticle Remover and Cuticle Oil with Shea Butter. I'm sure you can tell in my pictures my cuticles are often dry and what I like to call "crusty" so I was really happy to try The Cuticle Remover and Oil.

About the Cuticle Remover:
Cuticle Removers with Lanolin removes unwanted and overgrown cuticles and dead skin to provide manicures and pedicures a clean finished look. Softening agent of lanolin assists in easy removal, eliminating cutting or snipping.

After soaking for 5 minutes you apply the cuticle remover on the unwanted area and wait 45 seconds, push back and remove cuticle and wash off with water. Super fast and easy! I never cut my cuticles because I thought it was unnecessary but I know people do it and this is an great way to avoid that. The bottle comes with an applicator tip for easy application.

About the Cuticle Oil with Shea Butter:
For healthy cuticles, botanical oils of grape seed, avocado and canola, shea butter and essential oils of lavender and orange make the perfect combination cuticle oil for supreme nail care.

You simply brush onto your cuticle and massage all around, so easy! After one use you can definitely see a difference and my cuticles aren't dry anymore. It's a nice and easy way to get your cuticles healthy. The oil is absorbed into the skin fast and doesn't leave an oily feel.

I used to think cuticle removal was a difficult task but this was really easy and both cuticle remover and oil take a few minutes to get your cuticles looking nice and healthy.

Buy It: Visit VB Cosmetics to purchase their Cuticle Remover and Cuticle Oil with Shea Butter.

My Lip Stuff Review + Giveaway

My Lip Stuff is a "skin, earth and animal friendly" line of lip balms. Their home made lip balms are made of all natural ingredients, not all vegan but they do offer 100% vegan lip balms made of candelilla wax for those that don't use beeswax. With over 500 flavors to chose from, there is something for everyone! Something I think is really fun is you can get personalized and custom labels! Like instead of My Lip Stuff it can say Nani's Lip Stuff or say you wanted to give out the lip balms at your party, you can have a customized label, how cool is that? The thing I really like about My Lip Stuff is that its affordable and of good quality. They also offer "Other Stuff" such as body butter and bath salts, they even have Lip Stuff for Men! (I so need this for my bf!)

(Yes, one is missing my boyfriend stole it!)

I was sent 6 lip balms: Rainbow Sherbet, Orange,Candy Cane, Harvest Festival, Gingerbread House and Bubblegum Ice Cream. I think it is safe to say there is nothing like them! Two of them came in fun holiday labels. The flavors are original and fun, not to mention yummy! They go on smooth and moisturize your lips for a while. Did I mention they are yummy? lol I was addicted to Rainbow Sherbet til I tried the Bubblegum Ice Cream. Looking around the website there are tons more I want to try, like the Kahlua and Cream Booze Balm mmmm!  

Buy It: Check out My Lip Stuff for 500+ lip balm flavors!

Win It: My Lip Stuff is giving one reader 6 assorted lip balms pack!
