December Starbox

If you still haven't subscribed to  Starlook 's  Starbox , for $15/ month, December is defiantly the month to do so! The December Starbox includes the 15 shade eyeshadow pallet below, valued at $99, which you can get on back order  here  for $25, while supplies last!!! As you can see there are some very unique colors, including an actual red, which is a rare shade for sure. There are mattes and shimmery shades, so there is something for everyone and every occasion! As you can always expect from Starlooks, the eyeshadows are highly pigmented and blendable! With all these great colors you are sure to be able to create all kinds of new fun holiday looks! Below is a look I call winter wonderland. I used a silver eyeliner to line my upper and lower lids then used the light shimmer blue on my lids and the dark shimmer blue in the crease. This isn't exactly a holiday look, she wanted a "jungle girl" look. So she decided she wanted gold...

Dino Lingo - Foreign Language for Kiddos

I just heard about these great videos for kids from Dino Lingo via Influenster . They teach kids how to speak different languages in a simple and fun way.  Check out the video below for an example. My daughter and I are interested in Italian because of our heritage, so that is the one we were drawn to, but they have several other languages you can find examples on their YouTube page .

Mia Mariu Cosmetics Review

Mia Mariu Perfecting Finish mineral foundation in  Vainilla is FABULOUS!!!!  I don't think I'll ever use another foundation in my life! It's light, covers as well as a concealer, but blends perfectly with you skin tone.   Mia Mariu Hydrating Stick Gloss in  Capricho is my new go-to lip stick! It's a gorgeous shade, it smells like cappuccino, and it keeps my lips soft and moisturized like a great chap-stick would!   Before: with no foundation (just Garnier B.B. Cream & Starbox lipstick ) After: with Mia Mariu Perfecting Finish mineral foundation in  Vainilla &  Mia Mariu Hydrating Stick Gloss in  Capricho ( eyes from Starbox ) Don't forget to check Mia Mariu online at the links provided in this post to see all the other amazing products this amazing company offers!

Sibu Beauty - The Miracle of Sea Buckthorn

                                                                                  I've been using these amazing Sibu Beauty products for a few months and I have totally fallen in love! If you are an avid Products & Reviews reader, then you know I am VERY picky about my skin care products, but Sibu surpassed my expectations! Their balancing facial cleanser is wonderful! It is a little gritty so it is almost like a nice little exfoliator every night when I use it in the shower! Plus it smells AMAZING! I follow the cleanser at night with their hydrating serum but I also use it in the morning.  It is a very nice, light moisturizing serum.     At night I follow the hydrating serum with their replenishing night cream , which is a perfect night cream!...

October Starbox Review

Amazing October Starbox!!! As you all know, I'm in love with Starlook's Starbox!!! It's my favorite subscription box EVER! Their products are amazing, fun, and flirty... and extremely versatile! The colors are great too! Every month I open mine and I am blown away by the amount of products they send for $15! It's an amazing value!  The look to the left is just Garnier B.B. Cream in light/ medium with the Starlooks' lipstick in Masquerade (in October Starbox). The look to the right is Mia Mariu Perfecting Finish mineral foundation in Vainilla and Mia Mariu Hydrating Stick Gloss in Capricho , Covergirl Lashblast in black, and Starlooks' Eye Pencil in Gold Dust and Pigment Luster in Peddle (from the October Starbox) and the purple iridescent shadow from the Starlooks' pallet in last month's Starbox. FYI: Holiday Treat for those signed up by December!!!

NYC Individual Eyes for Brown Eyed Beauties ;)

I received this NYC IndividualEyes pallet ( $4.99 ) in my Influenster Beauty Blogger VoxBox and I instantly fell in love with it! It has a wonderful primer that also works great as a concealer in a crunch.  I LOVE their  über  pigmented purple! One of my all time favorite shades of purples to date! I've been using it in the crease, and using the dark sparkly brown on the lid, then using the white "illuminator" as the highlighter, and a dot on the inner and outer eye to brighten the look up.  These shades are very pigmented and great to blend which is great from an inexpensive drugstore brand like this. I've tried the Almay Eyeshadow Trios ( $6.99 ) that are similar to these, and I would highly recommend the NYC version instead, they are much more pigmented and the colors are way more vibrant, plus they come with more options... you get 4 colors of shadow plus the illuminator and the primer in one NYC shadow pal...

September 2012 Starlooks' Starbox Review

If you are in the market for a subscription box, I highly recommend Starlooks' Starbox.  This is the second one I've received and I have really liked both of them! You can check out the review of August's box here .  You get 3-4 (or actually this time it was 6+) good quality, FULL-SIZED products sent to your door every month for only $15... can't go wrong there!

Help Us Fight Hunger!

Hello everyone!  My daughter's Girl Scout troop is participating in the  Cleveland County CROP Walk ! Proceeds from this event go to support the hunger fighting and relief efforts of Church World Service in 80 countries and to our local Food & Shelter. Please visit this link and donate to this great cause!  What difference do your donations make? Funds raised in a CROP Hunger Walk assist people in need around the world.   For example: $75 can enable three women to attend a literacy class for a year and change their lives forever.  $110 can provide emergency food supplies for a family of five’s needs for a month.  $140 can give a struggling farm family a new source of income: a pair of pigs. A piglet from each litter is then given to another family in need.  $350 can enable the eldest in a child-headed household of AIDS orphans to receive vocational training, so they can...

Red Cup Living - Guest Review & Giveaway

The Red Cup Living Guest Review & Giveaway, brought to you by  Squashie-Dipity ,  has finally arrived!!! Below you can read all about Red Cup Living, check out all the cool Red Cup gear that's up for grabs in the giveaway, and, of course, enter for your chance to win!   Good Luck! I have to be honest; when I heard about Red Cup Living I almost cried out in agony because the most annoying song popped in my head. I know most people love the song "Red Solo Cup" by Toby Keith but not this girl. Don't get me wrong, I use those cups and I've played beer pong with those cups, but really? Is it really necessary to write a song about "Red Solo Cups"? That song just gets under my skin and makes me want to pull my hair out every time I hear it! I figured I would check out Red Cup Living anyway and see what the deal was but I swore if it had anything to do with that stupid song, I would "X" out instantly.  By the time I had snooped through t...
