Mascara Review



The other day at Sephora my sister and I picked up Peter Thomas Roth's 'Lashes to Die For' Mascara, to try out. I have to say I wasn't impressed. This mascara is however better for shorter lashes than longer ones. It was very messy and didn't hold curled lashes well. It seperated pretty good just didn't do any lengthening for my lashes. I tried curling my lashes after I applied the mascara to give it back the curl and I made a mess. The mascara got all over my eyelid and was hard to rub off.

My sister however, thought differently she loved this mascara. To be honest it looked awesome on her and lengthened her lashes quiet a bit. So if you have littler lashes this mascara could do wonders for you, just be careful when applying it.

You can purchase this mascara at Ulta or Sephora for $22.00 I read some of the reviews for this mascara and all the women with short lashes adore this mascara. However the women with longer lashes didn't think it lived up to its hype. So you decide! Also, If you purchase this at Ulta you can return it after you have already used it, that is if you don't like it. ;)

Tinted Moisturizer and Curling Iron Review


I am going to do two product reviews in one blog post to save paper...Ok just kidding :p I thought since I was wearing them both at the same time why not?! ;)
On Saturday I got some training from a Cargo representative. I have to admit I was impressed. Their new summer line is amazing! There is no line like this one let me tell you. Next blog post I will give you some info on their summer products what they do and such.

She gave me a sample of their tinted moisturizer, which I am in love with! (pictured at left) I have to admit I was a little skeptical since I need more coverage than most women to give me an even skin tone. I applied the moisturizer all over my face and was instantly amazed! It is so sheer and light weight but yet covers all your imperfections!

This product has SPF 20 so you don't need to apply any before you apply this. It is water resistant, chemical free and oil free. It also has something unique, it gives your skin a little energy boost and helps nourish your skin.

It comes in four shades - Ivory, Nude, Honey & Tan which I love, so that every woman can find the color that matches her skin tone perfectly. You know how hard it can be to find your skin tone especially when you just got a tan!
Check out the results ---->
Evened my skin out pretty well huh? ;) Do I have you sold yet?

You can buy this product at Ulta for $34.00 I know it seems pricey however I did notice a little goes a long way :)


I give this product four thumbs up :)






Next product is the Conair You Curl, the clipless curling iron. I have been wanting the HAI Elite "the Rod" clipless curling iron. I saw it on www.hairextensions.com and I had to have it. However that price was not in my price range. So one day at work I came across this little number. One of my customers brought it up and we must have just gotten it in that day because I had never seen it before. I decided to try it out and at first I had no idea how to use it. I hadn't seen the TV ad for it. It was different from normal curling irons since it has no clamp. Finally after days of trying different techniques I finally got used to it and figured out how to work it :p


I got natural looking curls that took less time than with a normal curling iron. It is so simple once you figure out how to work it. You just wrap your hair around the barrel and hold for 5 seconds then let go and you have a gorgeous curl. You do have to be careful since you could easily burn yourself. It doesn't come with any gloves but you can however buy some gloves from Target or from the extensions website three finger glove or the two finger glove.


I didn't dry my hair I just let it dry then curled my hair without sectioning it and got a sexy beachy waves look. It took me about 10minutes at the max, and I didn't put any hairspray to keep the look natural.



I really love this curling iron, since it gives me a natural looking style and also faster than other curling irons. I would definitely recommend this product :) The only problem I had with it was that it doesn't work that well with short hair, basically hair above the shoulders. You can buy this iron at Ulta for $39.99 verses the HAI elite for $149.95.
