This week was a bust..hehe

Hopefully get some pictures of my Wet n Wild finds over the weekend. Sorry all, but my asthma has been less than cooperative this week. It's still worlds better than November was, but not as good as it was in December. And currently waiting on the newest Ipsy bag. Not too excited over this months, don't really need anything in there or interested in it, but whatever..I'll give it another month.

quick touch base post

These last three months ...well they have not been very good. Right before Thanksgiving I wound up in the hospital for 4 days. Oxygen, needles, breathing treatments..etc. Very horrible experience. My nurses were wonderful, hubby was amazing. (i think he maybe slept about 6 hours in those 4 days). But I'm almost at full strength again. ---Meaning I feel human for the first time since Sept with all these crazy health issues. Come on..2013!!!

Palmolive Fresh Infusions review

The lovely people at Influenster sent me my first voxbox of three Palmolive Fresh Infusions.
First off, the actual packaging of the box was wonderful, secure, no leaking!
Link to my unboxing...don't ask what happened to the audio, I have no clue..
So I have been using this for about a week now. They do smell lovely. They clean well, not perfect. They come off a bit thick...which means double washing is necessary.  The biggest plus is the smell. I can't seem to find these in stores yet, there is a link to the Target website where you can purchase all three scents for 8.97. Which winds up being 2.99 for a 16 oz bottle. Now if they have coupons or it is on sale this would be a doable.
Pros: wonderful scent
 gets everything nice and clean.
Cons: a bit thicker than my normal dish soap.
  Definitely pricier than my normal dish soap.

Bottom line..would I repurchase/purchase...yes, if it is on sale.

Target link to purchase: 3-pack





Items sent to me for my consideration, but I will always express my honest opinion.

my goodness..i have been a bad blogger!

Okay, I have not dropped off the face of the earth. it has been a horrible two months here, ending with last week having an abscessed tooth. So lots and lots of pain pills later, antibiotics, the first of two trips to the dentist and I am starting to feel human again.
New stuff...I recently got the Mash & Shany nail stamping plates. Okay, the non nail girl is truly addicted to these. Having way too much fun.
Other news, with the tooth being so wacky..it has played total havoc on my skin. So I'm trying some new stuff to see if anything will help. Over the weekend I'm going to my local Ulta to see if I can get a sample of the new Visionnaire by Lancome. Yes, I have considered some other things, but would like to avoid needles getting stuck into my face.
One more day of work to go and then I can rest again. Two days off in a row. Always a nice thing.
Love yas!

Black Radiance at Dollar General!

Very very excited over this. Right now they don't have a huge selection, but hopefully it's coming soon. Price point is 5$ for each package.
3 lip glosses, 3 sheer tint lipsticks, 3 different eyeliners (pencil, liquid, and smudger) and the Downtown Browns with 2 mini eyeliners.
 the actual display
 lip glosses
eyeliners

I purchased the Downtown Browns and the lip tints. The eyeshadow so far is wonderful. I did not use primer and they lasted with minimal creasing a full 10 hours. The lip tints, I am going to try out tomorrow. They are very very dark. Not 100% sure they are going to be work appropriate.  And sorry for the blurry pics, but this is my second time taking pics in a store, kinda felt wierd doing it.

dual review,Facial Epicare Epistick Epilator Hair Remover Stick

Hiyas! I'm back. Sorry I have been gone for two weeks, the heat here has been unbearable. And quite honestly the last place i want to be is in front of the computer. I have been hiding on my futon between the a/c and the fan. Yes, I know most of the U.S. has been hiding there as well. :)
Okay, first off I want to give big kudos to the seller I bought from millionshare. I got my order quick quick. Which is not just nice, but unusual anymore. Most sellers seem to push that 30 day ship time. I really think it's a whole feedback issue thing anymore. It arrived a day early and was nicely packaged. So thank you!

Now the review for the Epicare Stick. I watched numerous videos on YouTube about this beforehand. And most of the reviewers were in their teens. Well, if they can use it, surely I can!

Now on the actual hair that was bothering me, the lower chin peach fuzz..this works wonderfully. It is easy to use once you get the hang of it. Now the dreaded mustache hair....oooooowwww!!!The pain was horrible, worse than individually plucking or waxing. The amount of redness was the same I get from waxing.

Okay, ease of use~simply turn the pink knobs in opposite directions and run the coil against your face. You will feel the hair getting pulled out.
Lasting results~the same as plucking.
Pricing~ depends, I choose to purchase mine off of ebay, the actual site is a good deal more. (I will include a link to them as well)
Lasting of the actual tool~this varies I would think with use, seems most people replace theirs every 6 months. I've had mine for about 4, and have not noticed any issues with it. (and to be honest here, I am half Italian and unfortunately a touch fuzzy).
