And makes us meet new friends, Blogger, You-tubers and endless things with our fresh painted nails. What can we say about a Brand-Line of Nail Polishes ? Do you go by the name? Or do you go by just the color in the bottle ? "Options"



It sure is a huge discover what Brands do great formula splashing it on our nails. We can't denied that sometimes we get carry away by a cheaper nail polish, high end brand that we think its good.

Clarins Sunscreen Stick

Spring and Summer just around the corner its time for those face/body creams or sticks with SPF #'s to come out. As for me I always keep some out but now that we are just a few days away I like to be prepare. Because when the Sun, shine it shines and it gets HOT. If you are like me that have a little bit of acne pigmentation. You do want to use a good SPF of 30 to 50 for those pigment on your skin or else your pigment will gett more darker which means foundation and concealer which you don't want to use its Summer Time! and it gets sweaty, hot, and greasy face-skin days, Oh no, not me!
So with the help of Clarins Sunscreen Stick w/SPF 30 a great sun protect-en which you can carry it anywhere and fits all pockets. Why not prevent wrinkles, sunburn, anti-aging and dark colored pigmentation. Its water resistant if swimming or sweating. Also its a 100%  mineral screen that you can apply it every 2 hours which is most recommended. TIP: you want to apply any SPF, 15 minutes before sun exposure for best results. My SPF Face cream especially will always be on my vanity for a daily application. I can say that I'm good at it using everyday SPF on my face, pats on the back (chuckles).
I'm so ready for the beach, sand, sun, lemonade. My SPF sun protect-ant cream stick is just on the grab. Last year I discover some SPF face protect-ant and this year more on the discover as well. In a way SPF face cream can cause breakout on your face if it doesn't go with your skin for many reasons. So what's your favorite cream w/SPF for the Spring to Summer?

Suave Max Hold Hairspray

I remember on my high school years spraying my hair with hair spray getting my hair almost crispy. Oh, yes I laugh to think that was cool?! no frizzy hair but crispy?! I don't know which one was worse?? And some how along this year I bought Suave Max Hold Hairspray unscented. But this time two or three spritz the most, for those frizzy hair that wants to be straight up. You know we all have had those bad hair days.

Suave Max Hold Hairspray provides long-lasting hold, unscented  hair spray creates a fresh natural effect on your hair. Without bathing your hair on hairspray. Personally I use it for touch-up or with a style-up look.
The only down side of most hairspray is that if it gets wet, when it drys again it leaves a white flake. Oh flaky hair is one thing we want to avoid so on the long term short or long hair it works fab. Tip: finger comb your hair it helps and smells amazing without an unscented label that says on the bottle. The scent is a mild scent that doesn't linger plus it works on any hair type.

No Tangle Hair with Macadamia Natural Oil

Once in a while I get those tangle hair that can cause hair breakout. We all do need in a point help, making it easy for us after our hair is wash in the shower. Especially when the hair is wet it can look and get messy plus takes time. Baby, Teens or any age it is amazing that a spritz of Macadamia No Tangle goes a long way.
Feels so good when you can rely in a hair product that will work and prevent of excess hair loss. Especially if you are struggling hard with that comb and you see a lot of hair on your brush. Works great with wet hair it de-tangel those knots. Argan Oils provides that de-tangel hair making it more loose, soft and shiny. Who can say NO  to a de-tangel spray and No to tangles!!!

Real Techniques Shading + Foundation Brush

You guys know my love for Real Techniques Brushes. Since I've mention it on my YTV the first makeup brushes by Real Techniques that I have bought. My recent purchase is Real Techniques Shading Brush which is made with soft synthetic bristles. Great to hold on eyeshadow and also helps on the crease, inner corner, brow bone. Amazing shading brush vars-ital in multitasking.
Real Techniques Foundation Brush: its a foundation brush that leaves you like an air-brush in other words not too much makeup on your face. Great for those angles of your face around the nose etc etc...
It also makes you put less product on the Foundation Brush, bonus points! Something different for a foundation brush who angles  an air-brush makeup leaving your face flawless. My Real Techniques Brush stash will continue to build up, which I am HAPPY!

Clinique Acne Solutions Clarifying Lotion

I have to say that I've been a gal that didn't even mind for Toners. But that extra step is a must to achieve a good looking skin. That little step that you take a round cotton pad and wipe gentle on your entire face, it does make a difference. For the past eight months I've been using and changing toners and to say it helps plus you do see a big difference.


Last year my skin was playing the role of a very Oily, Greasy ball skin. Clinique Acne Solutions was the way or the help that made my skin better so far my skin has change to oily/combination skin but still sensitive. Or maybe its the years ( lol ). Either way I like the way its going. 
Clinique Acne Solution Clarifying Lotion - the second step in Clinique which this lotion creates skin that's clears and less oily. Its exfoliating properties sweeping away dead surface cells while oil-absorbing powders control the shine. Says for all skin types but I would say its for oily skin. Because afterwards it leaves a slightly dry my skin but in a good way of clearing all that oil on my pores. Pretty much the powder at the bottom of the bottle you cannot feel it on your skin. it combines one with the Toner-Lotion. I have to use it at night time, then apply a serum, Oh Ya! So what's your favorite Toner?

It removes surface oils, makeup, dirt and grim from all you makeup during the day to night wear. Leaves my oily-combination skin, clean, refresh, with a hydration feeling like you just did a facial.
Its a whipped with texture transformation into a rich cream when blended with water. It is infuse with a powerful botanical antioxidant blend that works hard to scavenger free-radicals that we don't need in our skin. The benefits are amazing that does to the skin.
Love that comes in a soft squeeze tube, very handy for traveling. Just one of those product that I will use for an every day. It works gently on your skin removing all your makeup except waterproof mascara. The great thing about this line is that they have for every type of skin and as well to target the area that you need.

Clinique Moisturizing Gel


Prepping our skin in a daily day is the best thing it will come to show in the long term. Clinique has a wide range of skin care. Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel the formula is between a lotion and gel as it says moisturizer gel it's not a fully gel type. It has a consists of a creamy-gel/lotion?! the good side of it that it melts into your skin and its Oil-Free. You do feel a freshness in your skin its not sticky or a jelly-silky finish. I use it daily prefer in the mornings goes well with makeup. Works seamlessly with anything or pairing it with another cream plus it's not oily or a heavy feeling on your skin.

















Clinique also has it as Lotion. Works well too and do like it but I fine my skin loves the Gel more. Love that comes in a pump, I tend to use two pumps its the perfect amount. Hydrates your skin well combined with any SPF cream lotion too. Plus its well loved!
Have you tried the Lotion or Gel? Which one did you like best?

Winter Skincare Must Have For Hydrated Dewy Skin

We know that at this time of the year we or "I" get either the driest Lips, dry scalp, patchy skin or scalp-elbows or knees. So we got to keep it balance with some Oils to deeply moisturize-hydrate our areas. Even when we layer with comfy-cozy sweaters, scarfs, mittens, or beanies ..... Relax and massage some Oils on your skin. Works great!!! when you have a day off or a 1 to 2 hours prior going to bed apply some then I will massage it and rinse it off or damp it with a warm cloth. You can also apply a night cream. Note: just a little dab on the skin since it is already moisturize.
Palmer's Vitamin E Scar Serum - most rave for healing and disappearing scars and at the same time deep rich hydration to the skin especially to dry skin. Like to use it on my acne scars that I have. Have been using this since a year and has made it a repurchase. You will see a big difference in about one to two months.

Jojoba Oil - Amazing golden yellow Oil, use it as a cleansing oil, bath, spray on makeup brushes, or mixed with tea tree oil you can spray on your face. Works great with Oily skin & dry skin. Absorbs into the skin leaving it soft and hydrated-juicy skin look. Also you can use it on your scalp and hair. Great for sensitive, acne- pron skin. It is just Amazing try it you will fall in love with this Oil. Hands down to my favorite Oil to use!

It was on my wish list and at last I got it. Was an early NYE Present since I wanted to use a great foundation and what a better way to rock it with Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Ultra Light Skin Perfecting. I can say that I have felt in love with this Foundation. It just puts a smile on my face.

















.























Formula: Light Feather weight foundation so easy to applied. Its soft and evanescent ultra fine fluid texture. The watery formula feels like a tinted moisturizer but has the coverage of a light to medium foundation. Melts on your skin leaving a fresh, healthy, natural glow. The skin glows with seemingly nude beauty. As if glowing from within. Also has SPF 15 as well a mild fresh of fragrance. Comes in ten shades that match perfectly to skin's undertone, whether pink or beige. The cost is $45 " lets just forward" did I mention that is Oil Free (kudos to Chanel). The only little Uhmmm that makes you say or pop your eyes is the Price. But I love it, my skin blends beautifully leaving a sheer satin glow. Layers just skinlessly I could just rave and rave about Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua. So lets get Chanilous! Cause we deserve it!!!

A Dreamy Glimse of Paris

 
One of my places that I wish to go one day to visit is Paris! Oh la la. And with Winter dry air still we could say slapped wind on our skin. Time to bring those Body Butter out, nothing  better to hydrate our skin. I am a gal for Body Butter, love them, so when they are on sale I stack for the whole year. Smooth, velvety, buttery texture that leaves your skin with a soft huge pot from Bath & Body Works in Paris Amour. Gives that moisture of healthy skin.
Its non-greasy and melts on your skin. Smells floral, vanilla, musky, luxury with a scent that lingers in a good way. You do not need a perfume and it will remind you of Paris when you see the lid of the packaging so whimsical and of course the Body Butter splash all over your body Amoure! xo
