Sephora July... The Good, The Bad and The Pretty!

Image
**Bought It** Sephora has been my go-to box for a couple of years now and every month I am introduced to several new items. Now that I have been able to try these- some for the first time- I'm going to dish it all on my feelings!   FRESH   Sugar Advanced Therapy Lip Treatment In the shade DREAM, I love every time I see these in my box. They are great to throw in your purse when you need a quick pick me up through out the day. The sweet thing about this product is that it helps prevent those fine lines and help improve the softness all while giving you a little pink color tint.  This product is a LOVE Josie Maran  Whipped Argan Oil Face Butter  I looooove to try new moisturizers. I actually make it a goal to switch them up every month because my skin needs change at just about that rate. First things first, the smell. It's amazing. You can't get passed a product, let alone put it on your face, if it smells horrible. The other plus? Th...

Sephora June Play! Box

**Bought It** June Play! Box... I'm catching uppppp.... The "in a summer state of mind" bag was just awesome! I am in love with every single product I got!  DEREK LAM 10 CROSBY- Blackout This is such an interesting scent. It has tones of earthy, woody, osmanthus and chai tea. It's kind of spicy and sweet at the same time and it's awesome!  KAT VON D- Everlasting Liquid Lipstick in K-Dub If you have never tried a Kat Von D, this is an awesome color to start out with. I loooove all of her liquid lips. They glide on like butter and dry with a really great matte finish. I have not tried this on my lips, but I will be rocking this soon! It's a great all year long color.  DR. DENNIS GROSS SKINCARE- Alpha Beta Glow Pad Gradual Glow Ok... how cool is this? It is so hard to find self- tanners for your face and my face is the one place I need them the most! I lather the heck out of my face with sunscreen all day, every day with the strongest SPF...

Sephora January Play! Box

**Bought It** I know I am a little late in posting this, but you know... it's netter late than never!! You all know I am a huge gym buff so I was excited to get a bag that was made for my gym brat side. Even the bag was made to put all my gym shower products in so the bag doesn't get all soggy and is easy to dry out. So pumped, Sephora!! Tarte Frixxxtion Stick Exfoliating Cleanser I have never heard of this product until the bag. I have now used it 4 times and I am in love! It has the perfect amount of exfoliation without being too harsh especially after a gym sesh. My face feels fresh and clean after using it. The only thing I don't like is the stick. I really prefer a tube for sanitary purposes. I just don't like putting yuck back on my face, you know? OUAI Haircare Treatment Mask I actually have not used this product yet, but it is totally a gym product for me. When I "wash" my hair at the gym it usually consists of dry shampoo or a condi...

Sephora Skin Fitness Kit

**Bought It**  I saw this little gift pack on sale at Sephora and I had some gift cards burning a hole in my pocket. I thought this was a great buy and there are a lot of products in here that I have never tried before. See what I love for the gym and what I can leave.  Dry shampoo is my best gym friend. Since I bleach the poo out of my hair and my shampoo is super expensive and it's just not good for your hair, I don't wash it every day. I actually wash it once a week. I need a great dry shampoo to get me between washes and keep my hair looking fantastic! I have never tried Living Proof as a dry shampoo brand, but I do like it. The smell and the actual product is awesome. It soaks up all the yuck without making my hair look greasy chunky. I'll be putting this in the rotation next.  This is my new FAVORITE product! I have one of my wrist right now and use it every day at the gym. It is the traceless hair ring by Invisibobble . It is a plastic hair tie that d...

**Affiliate Links** This month's bag is Rockstarlett and not only does the bag show us a celestial beauty love, but all the products rock! I am once again very happy with my bag AND all the products in it.

I'm not so hot on reds but this color, Red Chili , will be perfect for a holiday party. I only have to apply before and not worry about any further applications until after the party. I swatched this on my arm and it was still there through several hand washing, a face wash, lots of laundry and a full sleep.  ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ ⟰⟱ pur-lisse Blue Lotus Balancing Moisturizer I actually got to try a couple pur-lisse masks in a prior Ipsy bag and I fell in love with the brand. I am soooo happy I can add this to my gym bag because I n...

June Sephora Play! Box is HERE... See What I Think

Image
This month's Play! box is based on minimized looks. "Next-level nudes and no- maintenance naturals" is what this box is all about. Less is more and a low-key look is what is hot for this summer. I can't wait to bring these to the beach and show you how they work in the life of a beach bum! BUMBLE AND BUMBLE- Don't Blow It This is to be used on towel dried hair and use it to throw a simple style to your locks. This is a a texturizer to fine-to-medium hair. I will be using this by throwing it in my hair and then putting it in a braid to help tame that volume. Not to mention, this smells fantastic! BAREMINERALS- bareSkin Bronzer This is a dropper bottle bronzer that is designed to be worn alone or over foundation. To keep with the minimalist theme, I will be wearing this on it's own for a little bronzy boost! This can also double as a tint for your foundation. Once I come back from vacation, hopefully I will have a little bit of a tan! I wi...

Sephora Play! Box, May 2016

Image
**Bought It** This is my first Play! Box so I was super excited when my doorbell rang and there was that super cute little box. If you are following my Snapchat (Szizzy12184), you were able to see the unboxing and how cute the package is. Overall, I am impressed with the products that I got. All for only $10! Check it out! I am in love with BITE BEAUTY, so I was so pumped when I saw this deluxe sample. This is from the Amuse Bouche collection and it is in the color Kimchi. It is a highly pigmented bright pink color and it goes on just as silky smooth as the rest of the Amuse Bouche collection. It also has a citrus smell, so that's just fantastic. Next up, the KORRES Wild Rose Brightening Sleeping Facial. This little lady has made it into my permanent rotation. You only need a little tiny dollop of this to cover your face, so this one will make it a while before I run out. Not only does this smell fantastic, but it also feels fantastic. I am hoping to see improvements w...
