BeautyBox5 December Box

 

Hello darlings, its time to reveal the fabulousness of this month's BeautyBox5!

 

 

 

Its so funny how such a small box can bring me such excitement each month.  BeautyBox5  is monthly subscription that delivers five select beauty samples straight to your doorstep through a choice of subscription options including: $12.00/month, $30.00/quarterly or $99.00/ yr. 

 

This month's theme was Good Girl Gone Bad? and as a part of the official BeautyBox5 review team, I received the items complimentary in exchange for my thoughts and like last month, this month's box was a lot of fun.   

 

 

 

 

NYX Love in Rio: Sway with Lola 

Retail: $6.00

 

Undoubtedly, I was drooling in anticipation of last month's sneak peek at the NYX Cosmetics Eyeshadow Palette.  NYX is one of my favorite brands because its great quality and pretty affordable. When I pulled out the Love in Rio: Sway with Lola trio I was a little surprised at the color combo since they seemed a little beachy.  After a little research, I learned the palette was part of NYX's Spring launch.  They have a velvety texture that  glides right on.  Like many of NYX's shadows, they're nicely pigmented and leave you with really smooth, even coverage.  One element I liked in particular is that they're mostly matte, but with a hint of shimmer.  They create a softer, more natural effect (my preference) but with the right liner and gloss, can be amped up for a more sultry effect.         

 

 

 

 

 

Ofra Cosmetics: Sultry Lipgloss Plumper

Retail: $12.95

 

Speaking of glosses.. :D Ofra's Sultry Lipgloss Plumper is ideal for topping off your look with the perfect pout.  The texture of this gloss was quite unique.  It wasn't gooey or sticky like other glosses and its sheen is more subtle.  Instead, it is a little thicker and very heavily pigmented.  I loved wearing it because the rich, maroon-like color is perfect for the holiday season, with bits of gold shimmer, and it stayed put without smudging off.  It is supposed to come with a tang of mint flavor, (although I didn't taste any) and is supposed to help plump lips.  I didn't think mine necessarily looked any fuller, but the way the texture went on allowed me to achieve clean definition, which looked nice.  

 

 

 

 

 

Clean & Clear Morning Bust Hydrating Gel Moisturizer

Retail: $6.99

 

Truthfully, I have not used any Clean and Clear products since probably high school or college.  But I think it's time to revisit its isle in the drugstore!  I haven't been so pleasantly surprised with a product in a long time.  Not only does this little guy smell totally delish, (like sweet cucumber) but feels soo heavenly on your skin.  The gel is water based and blended with cucumber and green mango extract, making it safe for all skin types. My dry skin tends to be sensitive, and this felt so cool and soothing on it.  Whether its morning or night, this is a surefire way to add moisture to thirsty skin.     

 

 

 

 

Body Drench Daily Moisturizing Lotion

Retail: $8.99

 

Another one of skin's must have thirst quenchers!  A combination of aroma therapy and moisturizer in one, this hemp lotion offers a nice reprieve for tired skin.  It is emollient rich with a creamy, soothing texture.  It penetrated the cracked skin around my knuckles, without burning it, and helped calm it.  This is a great winter add to your purse for daily use.  It will keep your hands baby soft through these harsh months without leaving behind any greasy residue.   

 

 

 

The Every Beauty Flexible Foot Smoother

Retail: $4.99

 

 

 

I was happy to see this was a recipient of Beauty At Its Best Awards in 2012 and was eager to try it.  Its dermabrasion coating is designed to remove rough, dry cracked skin on feet, knees and elbows. It has two textures to work with: one side is coarse and the flip side is fine.  This product was difficult for me to test because at the moment I don't have any areas dry enough to need tending to.  But from handling it thus far I can say for the record its definitely firm, but flexible and easy to work with.  I look forward to having this on hand for the summer when the constant sandal wearing and running around barefoot starts to tear up my feet.

 

That's it for December my lovelies, check back for the January box preview!

Tis the Season to Make Your Nails Dazzle!

 

Add Festive Holiday Flair To Your Nails With Custom Nail Solutions President Katie Saxton's Merry Manicure Tips

The Holiday 2013 season is steadily approaching, which means you're probably gearing up for all of the festive gift-exchange parties and fun nights of caroling. Along with your favorite Christmas sweater and Santa hat, make sure to add an extra dash of holiday cheer to your seasonal attire with a fab and festive manicure! Katie Saxton, Nail Expert and President of Custom Nail Solutions, has the exclusive inside on merry manicures that will help you turn heads at all of the season's holiday parades and Secret Santa parties!

According to Katie, the top nail trends of the 2013 Holiday season are: 

 

 

Gleeful Glitter: Everything seems to sparkle during the holidays, and this should also hold true for your nails! Paint your nails red and green, alternating the colors on each nail, and let dry. Then, paint each red nail with a coat of red glitter polish and add a coat of green glitter polish to all of the green nails. Let dry and voilà! Your nails are ready to steal the spotlight at all your merry festivities!

Winter Snowflake Mani: Snowflake nail stamps are a fab and festive way to add pizazz to your holiday mani! Before you do this design, make sure you have blue polish, silver polish, clear topcoat, and a nail stamp kit with a snowflake stamping plate on hand. We like the Nail Art Stamping Set by Shany Cosmetics. Paint your nails blue and let dry, then place silver polish over the snowflake design on the stamping plate, and use the nail kit’s scraper to rid the plate of excess polish. While the silver polish is still wet, place the stamper over the plate so the snowflake design transfers, then press the stamper down on the nail. Do this until each nail is adorned with cute little silver snowflakes. Finish the look by adding a clear topcoat to each nail.

 

 

Christmas Tree Tape Mani: We all love gazing at dazzling Christmas trees during the holiday season. Celebrate this lovely holiday tradition with a merry Christmas tree tape mani! To do this nail design, have on-hand green polish, red polish, Scotch tape, scissors, nail glue, and gold nail gems. Paint the first nail red and let dry, then lay a piece of tape from the bottom left edge to the center of the tip, and place a second piece of tape from the right bottom edge to the center of the tip, making sure the pieces of tape intersect at a point below the upper edge of the nail. This will form a triangle "tree" of space in the middle of the nail. Cut several strips of tape and place them horizontally across the "tree," making sure they are not exactly parallel. Paint over the nail and tape strips with green polish and remove the tape strips while the polish is still dry. Let dry and repeat for each nail. Once all the nails are adorned with little green Christmas trees against a red background, add a clear topcoat to each nail. Once dry, use nail glue to glue gold nail gem "stars" at the top of each tree!

Pretty Presents: Make sure your nails are like cheerful little holiday gifts this season! To do this mani, have on-hand red polish, green polish, purple polish, gold polish, and silver polish. Paint each nail either red, green, or purple, alternating the colors for each nail. Then, using a toothpick, paint a single gold "ribbon" from the top of each nail to the bottom, and add a silver line next to the gold. Let dry, then use the toothpick to draw horizontal gold and silver ribbons through the middle of each nail. Once dry, use a toothpick to add little silver and gold "bows" where the ribbons intersect. Add a clear topcoat to complete the look.

 

 

Cheerful Champagne Mani: Nothing says "Happy Holidays!" like a glass of bubbly with all of your closest friends and relatives! For this festive holiday manicure, paint your nails with a coat of shimmery gold polish and let dry, then add gold glitter polish to the tips. This fun holiday mani is sure to get you noticed this season!

 

 

 

Jubilant New Year Mani: This flashy nail design will help you look fabulous as you count down to the New Year! Paint all of your nails royal blue and let dry, then add a coat of multi-colored glitter polish on each nail. This is a fun and festive way to celebrate the New Year!

 

 

Christmas Lights Mani: Show off your artistic side with this lovely manicure! Paint your nails red and let dry, then, using a toothpick and black nail polish, draw a squiggly black “light cord” from the outer edge of your thumbnail to the outer edge of your pinky nail, making certain to only get polish on the nails. Let the polish dry, then paint little holiday Christmas lights both above and below the cord, using polishes of all different colors. Once complete and dry, add a final topcoat to complete the look!

 

 

 

Joyous Water Marble Mani: An eye-catching red and green water marble mani will look great with all of your holiday get-ups! To do this intricate and eye-catching design, start off with a cup of room temperature water, a bottle of red polish, and a bottle of green polish, as well as tape and several toothpicks. Place tape around the edge of the first nail, covering the cuticles. Add two drops of red to the water and let spread, then a drop of green polish in the middle of the red polish. Then, take a toothpick and drag the edges of the polish to the center of the circle. Press your nail into the design, use a toothpick to scrape excess polish away from the edges of the nail, and take the nail out of the water. Then remove the tape and let dry. Use a toothpick to clear the polish from the top of the water, and repeat the process with the rest of the nails. Add a final clear topcoat to complete the look. The end result: a jolly water marble mani that is sure to be the talk of every seasonal soiree you attend!

The Elegance of David M. Robinson

 David M. Robinson is a premier retailer of some of the most luxurious brands, and opulent jewelry ever crafted.  As one of the UK's most popular Manchester Jewellers, it is known for its delicate jewels and timepieces by brands like Omega, Cartier and Patek Philippe to name a few. 

 

 

Snowdrops Diamond Ring

 

 

It is the ideal shopping spot for anyone with a true love and appreciation for stylish, elegant pieces.  As a girl with a flare for accessories, I was completely mesmerized by sparklers like this Snowdrops diamond ring and dubbed it number one on my wish list! 

 

 

 

You're the One Bangle

 

One of the elements that stood out to me about David M. Robinson while browsing, was that it caters to a range of preferences.  Stand out favorites of mine were items like this You're the One bangle that possesses a graceful, feminine feel that will dress up your look but keep it modest.  These refined Cloud Nine  hoop earrings create a bolder, edgier effect.  They're the ultimate details guaranteed to make a statement.   

 

 

Cloud Nine Hoop Earrings

 

 

Diamonds may be a girl's best friend... but what about men?  Well, if you didn't already know, watches like these stunners from the Omega collection are a sure to get them intrigued.   Those who have ever looked into purchasing such a timepiece, or any luxury piece for that matter, know they can be pretty pricey.  The nice thing about David M. Robinson is that you can chose a structured payment plan that you can apply to a variety of items like interest free watches , engagement rings, earrings, necklaces, etc.

Missing those Holiday Scents?

Many special moments in life are associated with a familiar scent, and that's something I love about the holidays.  Wintertime brings us a rush of scents like warm vanilla, spicy cinnamon, and the crisp, sharpness of a freshly cut Christmas pine.. <sigh>

 

 

But sometimes one can't always indulge in these festive delights.  Living within a thriving metropolis made of cement doesn't leave much room for mother nature to flourish.  Enviroscent creates fun alternatives for adding a little holiday cheer to your city apartment, or to those who just want to punch up the fading scent of their delicious country pine. Clever products like ScentSicles (Scented Ornaments) come in different scents: White Winter Fir, Christmas Tree Spruce, It's a Wonderful Spice, Snow Berry Wreath, and Two Dashes of cinnamon. 

 

Retail: $8.95

 

 Snow Berry Wreath is a soft blend of Christmas berries and a refreshing, woodsy pine... Mmm yum! I love these because they're really easy and simple to use and let you get really creative.  Each tube contains six, slim scented ornaments that you can hang virtually anywhere.  You can hang them on your tree to amp up its natural scent, place them on a wreath, or even slip them in a table top arrangement.  The nice thing about them is that they're slim, and conveniently a dark green color which makes them easy to hide so they won't take away from any décor.   

 They're ideal because their aroma is soft and subtle, very natural smelling.  It doesn't over power you and fills the room nicely.  They're a terrific touch for the ambiance at a holiday party, or for setting the mood when you want to feel in the holiday spirit :) 
  

The sticks are biodegradable and infused with pure, authentic smelling fragrance that lasts for 30 days.  Each tube also includes hooks for hanging. 

 

ScentSicles are available seasonally at:

Wal-Mart, Bed Bath & Beyond, Lowes, Michaels, Cracker Barrel, Hallmark, select Home Depot stores nationwide and several other fine retailers.

 

Holiday Extras from Goody

 

Looking for stocking stuffers or a few extras to add to your beauty lover's gift bundle this year?  Goody has some really fun accessories that are sporting an adorable bow theme and can be really cute for the holidays.  

 

 

 

Retail: $5.99

 

Gossip Girl's Blair Waldorf made headbands a staple in every girl's box of hair accessories.  Using them as her signature detail, topping off almost every look, they are totally functional for almost any ensemble.  These styles from Goody are some of my faves.  The purple bow is so Miss Waldorf, while the silver with gold beading for embellishment, is ideal for the holidays.  If you feel like going casual, the camouflage print with gold studs is perfect for dressing up a pair of jeans and giving it a punky feel.  

 

 

 

Retail: $3.99

 

 

 

This clip is so charming because it instantly dresses up your look.  Scoop your hair into a half pony, clip it with a cute bow, and ta- da!  It's classy and elegant, and done in 3 seconds flat.

 

 

 

 Retail: $2.99
 

Hair ties are more then convenient, they're an actual necessity in a girl's life.  Its so easy to just throw hair up into a ponytail, but adding a colorful bow here and there just makes it that more stylish.  This is a fun set that comes with several hair ties and a bow to just slip in at the base.  This is also good to pin back long bangs. 

 

 

 

 

GOODY Spin Pins!  These are one of the most innovative products I've ever used.  Oh how I wish these existed years ago!  I've been a dancer for many years and if I had a penny for every bobby pin I've ever broken, lost, stretched out, or had pop out while dancing, I'd be a billionaire. 

Spin Pins are insanely reliable for providing hold.  Ideal for buns and various up dos.  And you may be wondering why there's only two in the pack.  Well dolls, that's because more likely then not, two can get the job done.  

I pop in two of these babies to throw up my long, thick curls and in seconds I'm done.  They can get pretty tight, depending how deep you "screw" them into your hair, and at times they've even made my head pulse and I've had to loosen them.  But their hold is amazing and my hair never falls out.  I can also state for the record that I've never got my hair tangled in them.  Not once.  So for those with those long, luscious locks who rely on strong hold, these will work well and can make a great gift.

 

 

Available at local drugstores like CVS, DuaneReade, Target,  and Walgreens.

Is Your Pet Ready for the Holidays?

If you've read some of my past posts you might remember me mentioning my sincere love for all dogs.  I can't think of many things in this life that make me happier then spending time with my pooch.  My dog is more then just the family pet, and I'm sure many of you can relate. So each year, my family and I like to have a few surprises waiting for him under the tree to open on Christmas morning with the rest of us! (And yes, he actually DOES tear them open on his own, paper and all!)
