Madison Reed

Madison Reed hair color kit Capri Blonde – 9NGV


Hey all, as you all know I love coloring my hair and this summer I am going platinum blond.  So when I got the chance to check out this Hair color kit I jumped on it.  The first thing you should know when dying your hair is it’s not just a leap.  If you want to go to a big color change at home you have to go step by step.  Trust me I have done just the leap before and it does not turn out to pretty.  The step by step is actually easy and your color will turn out perfect.  This is my first and second step.  I had very dark roots and a little lighter as my hair got longer.  So the first step was I decided if this was the cut I wanted to keep.  I knew what color I eventually wanted to be so I decided on the hair cut I wanted.  So I sliced and diced it.  Then it was time to dye I picked a much lighter color knowing it would make a difference but would not be as light as that.  What I need in this second step is a lighter and an even color.  And this dye worked perfect.

After sliced and diced.  dark roots un even color

new even shinny color

The set it came with was beautiful.  Not only did it come with everything you need.  Shampoo, Conditioner, dye, gloved and the hair cap.   The directions were very clear and the dye its self did not burn at all.  I did the roots first because they were so dark then the rest to even out the color.  It turned out perfect.  Not for step 3 if you so choose to, wait a week or so and pick that same color you had if that color is your ultimate goal and dye again.  You will be at the color of your choice without ruining your hair.  The trick it step by step.  Don’t try to do a drastic change all at once at home.  Do the step by step till you get the color you would like and you are all set.  Then its juts touch up the roots when you need it ,or go with a whole new color.  One of the great things about Madison Reed is you can get the color sent to you every few weeks.  So no matter what dying schedule you are on they will send it straight to your door every few weeks so you are ready to go when it’s time for a touch up.  If you want to keep the schedule but not the color just shoot them an e-mail or give them a call and there customer service is great they will take care of it for you.    I loved this hair dye and would recommend them to everyone.  They have a wide range of colors to choose from so you are sure to find your perfect color.

Smile Sciences

Smile Sciences teeth whitening pen

I got the chance to try out this whitening pen and loved it.

I have to be honest with you here I have a fear of the dentist. So many people have recommended dentists like this Dentist in Greene to me as they’re particularly good with nervous patients, but I just cannot seem to find the courage to take the plunge. My teeth are terrible. I have wanted to get my teeth whitened but the cost is just way to much when I have so much other work that needs to be done so I have always had to put it off. A friend of mine recommended Crest Whitening Strips UK has offered her, as she always uses them, but I just never got round to buying some – the results seem good though. I got the chance to try out this pen and I was so excited but scared at the same time. Why scared? I have tried those whiting strips before and they hurt. They actually burned my teeth where I was in pain for hours after and I saw no result for all my pain. So I was a little scared to try this out but I really wanted whiter teeth. With that being said, no wonder why some people opt to visit a Dentist in Georgetown for example, to get their teeth whitened professionally.

When I first got this pen it said I could use it twice a day but I was too scared so I used it once and it did not hurt me at all. I waited a few more days before I used it again and still no pain. SO I started using it just a little bit more until at the end of the month I was using it twice a day. Still no pain and not hard to use at all. When I went to see my mom she even commented on how great my teeth were looking. A very simple pen to use. Just brush your teeth dry the teeth off and click the pen till the solution is coming out of the top and brush on. If you have sensitive teeth like me this is the way to go. I can see why this pen is getting so much press from “the doctors”, OK magazine and it will even be in Allures December beauty box. Do not think this is a substitute for taking care of your oral health, within a month you’ll be scheduling an appointment with a dental practice like Dentist West Long Branch to perform a checkup, to soon realize your oral health has been deteriorating greatly.

This was a fantastic product that I will make sure to keep in my medicine cabinet for a long time. You can get the whiting pen for $76.00 but if you like their facebook page here they are offering 50% off your first pen with code “ssvip”. What a fantastic deal. You will be paying hundreds for getting it done at your local dentist plus the time it will take or you can get yourself this great pen do it at a portion of the price and in just minutes in your own home. If you have a special occasion coming up or like me just like having whiter teeth for a beautiful smile this is the product for you.

I would recommend this product to everyone

Lip-Ink South Sea’s Fragrance

Lip-Ink South Sea’s Fragrance

I got the chance to try out the lip ink South Sea’s Fragrance and OMG it smells beautiful.

 

I am a true lover of the tropical flower smells and this one has truly combined all the great together for a fabulous scent.  As some of you remember I did a review with them on their Lip-Ink Lip color before and was in love see review here.  I was so excited when I got the chance to try out their new fragrance if the quality of their fragrance was any where as good as their lip products I knew I would be in love.  I just did not know how great this scent would be.  When I first opened the box I was excited to see it was a roll on.  These are perfect to keep in my purse and take along with me.  Then I opened and could immediately smell the wonderful fragrance. It has a wonderful mix of Plumeria, the smell of paradise, fused with floral gardenias, and white ginger.  This will instantly take you to the islands of Hawaii in your mind. You can get your own roll on for just $20.00 I cannot tell you how great of a price that is for a great fragrance.

Lip-Ink carries products for men add woman, for your face, body and of course fragrances.  As the holiday season is coming up make sure to take a look at their site they have some great items and at great prices I see a lot of things on their page I would love to find in my stocking.  I also like to make sure I check out their sales tab they always have a great selection on there.  The technology of their products is truly amazing.  The lip products really don’t smudge (amazing) their fragrances actually stay on for hours no need to re apply all the time, these products will actually last you a lot longer than your normal because you don’t have to keep on re applying them all day long.  Lip-Ink was created with you in mind they have come up with some great products that you will not see any where else.

I would not hesitate to recommend any of their products to everyone.

Pink Powder Parlor Lip Gloss

Pink Powder Parlor Lip Gloss

As you all know I am a lip gloss lover I never leave the house without lip stick and lip gloss.  I am a true believer that the color of your lip’s can completely change your mood.  Pink Powder Parlor has not only a ton of colors to choose from, from gloss to stick, but they carry a whole line of great make up in some of the most beautiful and vibrant colors I have seen.  I want to also note for all our cheerleaders out there, or if you just want to show your school spirit they have sprit glosses in a ton of colors.  I wish they would have had this for us when I was Cheering I would so have rocked the orange lip-gloss.

The first one I tried was the gloss.  This instantly became one of my favorite.  Not only is it a real lip brush in it, but the shine was unmatched.  I could not believe the shine I got out of just one application.  There is a little tint to the gloss which was a very nice color.  I know the next question you are going to ask is and the answer is NO it was not sticky at all.  We all know I cannot stand a sticky lip gloss and this was perfect no sticky at all a tint of color and shine like you would not believe.  The lip shine lip gloss comes in 6 different colors for only $11.00 each.  This is a must try you will not believe the shine from this wonderful lip gloss.

 

The next one I tried was the Lip and Cheek Pen.  I was very excited for this one.  I have never tried one of the pens before and I am so excited that I did.  The Raspberry color was fantastic.  A bright and vibrant color and the pen was amazing.  It had a Lip brush tip just click the bottom and the color comes out.  With this one you can add more color with more clicks or do a lighter color. I was truly amazed by the lip pen it went on like a lip stain but left your lips moisturized like a lip stick.  I was leery about doing the cheeks on how it would work but it worked great.  Just dab a little on and blend and it gave me a great tint.  The color was long lasting and very moisturizing.   This fantastic pen comes in 4 different colors and is only $10.00 each a fantastic deal.

This is the pen and the gloss together.  I love the way they look together.

I am truly in love with Pink Powder Parlor and would recommend them to everyone.

Habe Naturals Hand and Foot Cream Review

I got the chance to try this hand and foot cream and I love it.

This fantastic Hand, Foot and Body cream is 100% natural.  Made with olive oil, coconut oil and tea tree oil.   This is also a great lotion for you little ones bottom.  Habe Naturals also makes an acne treatment. The acne treatment and this lotion is for a great price.  The lotion sells for $12.73, and the acne treatment sells for $29.97 (this is a fantastic price for an acne treatment).

I was so excited when I got the chance to try this one.  You all know I love a good lotion.  When I first got this I saw it was in a cute tin.  I love lotions in tins I love to re use them when I am done for hair pins or to travel with my pills I need.  The tin is a twist lid so easy to get on and off and it does not fall off.   The smell is a nice clean nature smell.   It is an oil based lotion so I was very surprised to find out it was a solid lotion.  It does go on like an oil but my skin just sucked it right up.  It left a very nice glow and helped the dry skin immensely.  I used this on my elbows where my skin gets so dry I can feel my shirts rubbing on them (very weird and very uncomfortable feeling).  My skin was instantly softer and just keeps getting better every day.  I also tried it out on hubbys scars they get so dry and itchy I had to give it a try, and he said they instantly felt better too.  This was a great product and I love that it is all natural I can use it on baby boy and not have to wonder what I am putting on his new baby boy skin.

I would recommend this product to everyone.

Sleep Mask

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

 

Zeepo Strapless Sleep Mask with Dream Essence Sleep Serum


This was a very interesting mask it stays on your face with double sided adhesive tape.  Yep that is right double sided tape.  The sleep serum smelled fantastic and relaxing and you just dab a little bit on your temples.  The mask is nice and dark so it blocked out the light that usually comes in even when you don’t notice. This sleep mask sells for $27.95 on Dream essentials.  If you are like me sometimes I do my hair for the next day at night and you don’t want to put the straps around your hair (you get the indentions) this one is perfect for you. Does not have the strap around your head.  You can get the sleep serum right now for $14.35 and well worth every penny.  I am so going to need more of this.

I was very excited when I tried this out it did not fall off. I do have a very greasy nose so I had to pinch the nose part a few times but just stuck right back on.  I also woke up better rested then I have in a long time.  I never noticed how much I needed a good night sleep until I tried this.  The mask was very light weight so I did not even really notice that it was on.  The tape came right off in the morning no tugging or pulling on my skin.  This was very nice my face is sensitive, so I was worried about this but it came right off and did not make me break out at all.  The serum smelled fantastic and gave me a nice calming feeling.  Just dab on your temples and you are ready to go.  This was a very easy to use sleep mask and very effective.  I loved it. They have some other awesome dram maskes that are a must check out too.

I would recommend this sleep mask and serum to everyone

Simply Spoiled Beauty

Simply Spoiled Beauty Products

You all know I love beauty products; I was so excited when I got to work with Simply Spoiled.  They have some very cute beauty products that I have not seen before.  I noticed on the site they have a ton of nail products so I was dying to try out a few and of course a few other of their items.  When they showed I was very impressed with the nail colors.  They were very bright and of course had a glitter part to so I could go extra shinny.

The nail polishes go on lighter so you can decide on how bright you want to make them.  I did 2 coats and it came out exactly how I wanted them.  I did the French manicure with the glitter part. Very easy to do.  Just paint your nails with your base coat and let dry.  Then get the blue painters tape and put over nail.  This will give you a straight line (make sure base coat is completely dry).  Then just paint your next color and let dry.  Just peel of the tape and you are done.  Very quick and easy to do at home.  The nail colors went on smooth and no clumps. I also got these cute nail art guys that I was dying to use but they were all stolen every time I took one out to use it disappeared.  I came to find out baby boy thought they were for him and now has his own little collection.  So my warning here is if you want to use these adorable little guys (the turtle was my favorite) make sure your little one is passed out lol.

The storage container was fantastic I loved the size.  This was perfect for my hair things I always have laying around everywhere and the little circle containers of makeup that always get lost.  They fit perfect and helped clean up my makeup area.  The drawers worked perfect and I could also stack these containers for more space on my counter.

 

The eye liner/ lip liner.  I got the Noir so I just used it as eye liner and it went on very smooth.  This one I had to get started by rubbing it on a piece of paper, once I did that I went on nice and smooth.  This was a thicker eye liner so if you want to go for the smoky eye look this one is perfect.  You will not have to go over it again and again to get the thicker look you want.  If you want a darker look, just hold over a lighter for 1-2 seconds.  Don’t do it for any longer or you will melt it.

Simply Spoiled has a ton of very cute items for a very good price.  I would recommend them to everyone.  They were very nice to work with and are always there to answer any questions you may have.

They have even offered us a coupon code for 35% off your order.  Just use code tabby at check out
