(REVIEW) Sheer Cover Duo Concealer


I had gotten this product from my Influenster Beauty VoxBox for review purposes. This is the last review for the day . I am on a roll today I guess this makes up for the time that I have been gone.

 
This is THE BEST concealer I have ever used. I have dark circles under my eyes and brown spots on my face. This concealer followed by some mineral powder in a tan color and I can't even see where they were. You just have to go by your own skin color to choose the mineral powder for you. The concealer itself is very light and blend able and won't sit in the wrinkles. , I tried this and I looked almost normal. You could just barely see a slight darkness where the bruise is. I highly recommend this for coverups like bruises, birthmarks, acne, pimples. I used the mineral powder over it and it lasted all day. I didn't even need to touch it up.
 
Saw Sheer Cover products on an infomercial a while back one night . Wanted to try it to cover up old acne scars and hide my horrendous dark circles. Works like a DREAM! Haven't found any product yet that covers better than this. And it really does just melt into your skin tone. Every other concealer has always looked a little too yellow or pink on my skin. Great for any blemish you want to hide!!!!
 
Thanks to Influenster I was able to try out this product. This is one concealer that I will repurchase myself . I think if you can please try maybe it can work for you like it did for me

(Review) Dr. Scholl's For Her Ball of Foot Cushions


I had gotten this product from my Influenster Beauty VoxBox for review purposes.


 
I am get straight to the point while they did provide extra cushioning, I didn't find much relief for the ball of my foot. I used these in 3" heels and some boots I had. Their "stickiness" wears out pretty quickly and I had some problems with them scrunching up in my boots. They were very uncomfortable with my dress socks as they made them bunch up under my foot--furthering my discomfort
They made my heels much more comfortable than they were without them. The longer I wear them, however, the more they seem to slip and slide around.

Don't expect these to stay in place without a little crazy glue. In concept, I love these shoe cushions. The gel is perfect for women who suffer through wearing uncomfortable heels all day. I found that the adhesive that is on the product isn't strong enough to hold the cushion in place. I bought a small tube of crazy glue and after I placed the center of the cushion into place I ran the glue around the edges of the cushion. They're staying in place so far, but I would rather have them stay in place on their own.
So yeah this product was a no go for me I would not try to buy this product at all. Like I said before the cushioning should stay in its place without out me doing all of that. It is just not worth all the trouble.



(REVIEW) Sally Hansen Salon Effects



How many of these can I do.Well once again I had gotten these product from my Spring Beauty VoxBox from Influenters for review purposes.

Stick on nail polish is nothing new, but the designs offered are too unique to pass up. I followed the instructions but added a few more steps of my own that I feel helped. After preparing my nails I applied a base coat, allowing it to dry before tackling the strips. A sticky base coat might be helpful for those who have had trouble with this product previously. I laid out the sizes for each nail. I removed the clear plastic covering and protective backing before pulling off the 'tab' and applying. I pressed firmly for a few seconds at the cuticle/base of my nail before gently pulling the end of the strip to the very edge of it.  Instead of filing around the cuticle and around the edge of the nail as the instructions suggested, I took the pointed end of the enclosed cuticle stick, dipped it lightly in polish remover, and drew it around my cuticle as close as I could get. That area of the strip should gently pull right off the skin around the cuticle. I did the same remover technique at the edge. I used the fine grit of the enclosed file for any rough spots. I finished off with a clear top coat.

What I like about the product the nails have zero drying time they go on dry, just a bit stretchy and there is a slight "nail polish" odor. Within minutes of applying them, I have driven, washed dishes, gone to bed.  
No chips peeling the main reason they start to look worse is that they grow out with your nails.
What I don't like about them it seems that some of the packages have bad sets of strips. The strips were not very flexible, didn't stretch well, sometimes ripped as I was pulling them over my nail and didn't adhere well  started pulling up from the sides after a couple days.
These are OK. I had been dying  to try them for months and finally was able to thanks to Influenters. But would I buy this product myself ....um No I think not I love getting my nails done at the salon but for a person who needs to get then done for a last mintue event . I say go for it .
This product is  available at Wal-Mart, Target, CVS-RiteAid-Walgreens and most drugs stores that carry nail supplies.

(Review) Bath & Body Paris Amour





Long time since I have written anything but what better time to write a review then now. First off i want to go on record  but saying that I had gotten this Bath and Body product from my spring Influnster box I had so much fun trying all these new products . So far I am really love it .

Anyway I want to to start off by saying I have seen this product at the store many many times. I smelled this in store on a couple of occasions, and just wasn't impressed. However, I never actually tried it on my skin to see how it would dry,  I am glad that this product was part of my spring package.

First of all, I really do like the packaging. Yes, the spray bottle is made of plastic, but it's quite elegant in its simplicity and the functionality is great, it fits well in my small hand for a quick spray and the lid doesn't come off when least expected, which is especially important for something you might want to carry in your (beach) bag for top-ups.

Now Paris Amour is described as a romantic, bubbly blend of white tulips and pink champagne.I was pleasantly surprised, while different than my usual scents, I really enjoy the more mature but flirty essence this has. The fruit notes are so light, they really just help take the edge off the heavier musky scents. In a way, it does. The simplicity of the combination comes through the fragrance, and what I mostly get from the mist is a refreshing, feminine floral without much of a body. The champagne note is rather subtle, but playful, and I swear I get some red fruit from it as well.

All in all I do love it but I feel I would wear this scent more in the spring time then anything else . I guess that why I had gotten then my Spring Beauty VoxBox.

In terms of longevity, I'd say I get around 1-2 hours wear, and the scent is quite delicate throughout. I think if you add the body lotion it would last a little long. This is a product I would purchase on my own. Try it for you self but like i said to get the full effect you must left the mist dry on your skin.
