Target: Target Style Merona Cross-Body Bag

Merona Timeless Collection Cross Body Bag in Junior Mint

I got this bag at target last weekend. I needed a cross body bag for my upcoming trip to Las Vegas, I don't want a huge purse down there in the desert. So I picked up this bag in the mint color, which is on trend right now. I have to say I'm in love with this bag, and for the under 25$ price tag I'll take it. The fake leather is buttery soft to the touch, and the space is enough for a phone, money,i.d.and then some.

The only downfall is the zipper is a bit pissy, but otherwise I'm in love with it.

you can find this bag at target stores or at http://www.target.com/p/merona-timeless-collection-crossbody-handbag-with-removable-strap/-/A-16457783#prodSlot=large_1_10

it also comes in 6 more colors if mint isn't your thing.

what's your summer bag??

 Berocca 2 Pack sample

 Gold Bond Healing Lotion Sample

 Skin Fix Sample Size

I received my Smiley360 Arm&Hammer Baking Soda in the mail last week, and opened it to find these goodies in the box.

I can't wait to start using these soon, and will do a blog post/review when I am finished with this mission. 

awesome! 

Stay tuned for more,

Chella Liquid Eyeliner-Indigo Blue

This is the chella liquid eyeliner in indigo blue. It has a felt tip and the formula is liquidy at first, and then drys fast. The formula also is a bit water resistant, but washes off with makeup remover, face soap, and water. I like to remove most of my makeup with a makeup remover face wipe, then wash with my normal cleanser.

The only two peeves I have about this eyeliner is one, the felt tip is very, very long and you can get it all over your eye, and two, the pen has dried up a bit since I opened it last month, so I'm not sure how long this will stay liquidy.

I love the color, it gives my eyes a bit of pop with a great neutral eye, or alone with the pop of just eyeliner and mascara. 

If you have a chance to try this I would, but you could find a nice drugstore product or a sephora one to replace this. I would find one with a shorter pen length, because I am clumsy.

stay tuned for more reviews, looks, stories, and general life shenanigans.

Leaders Insolution Vita bright Sheet Mask

Here is my review/overview of the Leader's Insolution vita bright sheet mask. I got mine from the imomoko.com site which carries asian/korean skincare, makeup, and lifestyle items.

The leader's insolution masks cost about 1.00$ -1.80$ a piece, and you can get a starter pack (to try them all out) for 15$-16$. I picked the vita bright mask because I get freckles when i'm out in the sun and my skin tone has been very uneven. This mask works well for these skin issues.  

This mask claims to even skin tone, brighten skin, smooth skin, and help with dark spots. It has a cottony mask filled with serum to put on your face and let it sit for 20-30 mins. to get the best results. I put this on and watched some youtube videos while waiting for the mask to do it's thing. After the 20-30 mins. I took the sheet mask off and my skin was:

-Smoother. My dry, flaky skin was removed, and my face was very smooth.

- Moisturized. My skin was very moisturized, with no dry skin in sight. 

- Brighter. My skin seemed to have a glow, and seemed brighter. 

- Dark spots were minimized, My acne spots, and freckles were lightened and brightened to where you almost couldn't see them. They still are today, when i'm writing this.

Overall this face mask worked very well on my skin, and made my skin look wayyy better, then what it did before, I am in love with this mask so far, and will definitely repurchase these in bulk. 

I <3 it!! A Whole Lot!

It gets an A/ A+

What do you think of these types of masks? Have you tried these? Leave a comment and let me know! I'd also love recommendations from everyone on great masks! 

stay tuned for more sheet mask reviews/overviews.

Otaku Acne Care Sheet Mask

Here is my review for the otaku acne sheet mask. I got mine from imomoko.com in a sample pack that was 11.00$ This one is the acne mask, and I wrote the name/function on it, because I cannot read the Korean, Japanese or Chinese. The mask comes with a plastic sheeting on the mask to keep it moist, and shaped. You do have to be careful with these masks because they are very easy to rip/break them.

I chose this mask because I was just getting my period and I had a few breakouts pop out of my skin, and it was pissing me off. I did have blackheads, and a few acne spots on my skin, and acne scars and redness. I put this mask on my skin and left it on for 15-20 mins.

After the mask was done, my skin was smooth, moisturized, and my blemishes and acne spots were diminished. It wasn't  a huge turn out, but it was enough to help my acne shrink, and my acne spots were lighter too. It also helped with my excess sebum/oil in my t- zone area. My blackheads were cleaned out and my pore were looking great.

have you tried this mask? or others like it? let me know. any recommendations would be welcome too.

Until my next face mask day/night. stay tuned for more sheet mask reviews.

Otaku Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Sheet Mask

This is a review for the Otaku Hyaluronic acid hydrating sheet mask. This is a hydrating, moisturizing, and soothing sheet mask with hyaluronic acid. I decided to use this sheet mask because I had dry, dehydrated, sun burnt skin from not wearing enough sunscreen this weekend camping. 

My skin was even dry on my t-zone, so that means I needed a boost of moisture to get me through the day. 

I put the mask on and let it sit for 20-30 mins. 

 And afterward,the mask gave my skin lots of moisture without bringing oilyness. I had a big spot of flaky dry patches on my forehead and it was gone after the mask. I also had a sunburn on my nose and upper face area and it was diminished and hydrated when the mask was taken off. My skin was hydrated, smooth, and glowy. My skin felt baby soft and plump, and my dry patches were gone. I love this mask, and will use it in the winter to deeply moisturize my skin weekly. 

I got a sheet mask set from otaku at imomoko.com for 11.00$ it came with different face masks to try from the brand otaku.If you would like to try these masks you can go to imomoko.com, sasa.com, or wherever you buy sheet masks online. I will repurchse these masks over and over again. They are wonderful!

Thanks for reading,

Pixi Beauty Tinted Brilliance Lip Balm- Unique Pink

This is a smaller review for the Pixi Beauty Tinted Brilliance Balm in Unique Pink. I got this in my July Ipsy bag, and have been using it since I got it. This is a tinted lip balm that colors itself based on your ph of your lips, giving you a hint of color and lots of moisture. It has a minty smell/taste, which makes it very pleasant to put on.

I got a sample size of 1.8g, The full size comes in 12 colors, and are sold for 14.00$ for a bigger crayon stick full of product. I could see myself splurging on these and buying nearly every color, because I do love them that much. The color is like a my lips but better color. In Love!!

This product has made me want to try other pixi beauty products, I can't wait to try more products from them. Have you tried these or other pixi beauty products? let me know and recommend me some awesome products! 

You can find these at pixibeauty.com or target, and target.com or anywhere that sells pixi beauty. 

Until next time, stay tuned for more beauty

St. Ives Nourished & Smooth Oatmeal Scrub + Mask

I got this product in an Influenster St. Ives voxbox, along with two other brand new products from newly released product lines from the same St. Ives brand. I have been using St. Ives since high school so like 10+ years, and I jumped at the chance to try these new products being released from St. Ives. I love them so, and they have worked a way into my current routine, and they might stay for awhile. 

This product is a scrub that can also be used as a hydrating, exfoliating, and smoothing mask. It is made from oatmeal and has 100% natural exfoliators added into the scrub. No small plastic beads here, natural exfoliants that are safe for the environment. Oatmeal is also great for redness and sensitive skin, so this scrub/mask is great for sensitive skins as well as other skin types. It is also hypoallergenic, and free of parabens. It is a full size 6 oz. tube. It does what it says by buffing away dull and dry skin, smoothing, and soothing dry skin. I love this product. It is great for drier skin during the winter time, and does what it is said to do, you can also find this anywhere and get it on sale most of the time. A great drugstore exfoliator that needs to be in your skincare routine. 

This gets an A rating from me. I will definately purchase this again and again and continue to have it in my skincare routine for awhile. It works well on my skin. I Love, Love, Love it!!
