Color Me So Crazy

**May Contain Press Samples** Today marks the end of a challenge that I had sooo much fun with. I got to use colors that otherwise would have just sat in my little (ok, HUGE) collection and would have been only loved once or twice. It actually forced me to go searching through my stashes to find brands that I never knew I had.  We are starting a brand new challenge next week that we are given a picture and we have to do a design based on that picture. I am a little nervous and VERY excited about this one. It will challenge me in ways that I haven't been, art wise, in a long time.  I am also going to try to catch back up with my Nail Challenge Collaborative group so I am hoping to show you some more nail art in the upcoming weeks because I have kind of strayed from that and that's where I started. I miss it!! For this design, I used 3 different colors and used some nail vinyls from KB Shimmer that I got as part of their Spring Line and I still love to use bec...

**Press Samples** I always love when I hear from Reviva Labs. They have the best serums and creams always made from the best ingredients.  I have two new products that I have snuck into my routine for the last couple of weeks.  First up, the Nourishing Cream. This has Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids which help with all of those fine lines and wrinkles. They help full and smooth out your face. They are essential fatty acids that are needed to put moisture back into your skin. This is meant to be used in the mornings and nights. The things I love about Reviva Labs is they teach you how to treat your skin and maintain it. They also suggest you increase your EFAs (essential fatty acids) via supplements or food. I get mine in flaxseeds on my greek yogurt in the morning, shellfish, avocados, chia seeds (I put them in/on everything), pumpkin seeds, kale, spinach. I am sure you can get them in other foods, but that's what I eat on the regular.  Anyway, this contain...

**Product Review** StriVectin is a household name for me. I have been using this brand for ohhh so long. I am sure I have mentioned (oh about a million times) that I am a super busy mom. This time, I am not going to complain about lack of time but I am going to talk about being a mom. I have used StriVectin for stretch marks from the time I found out I was pregnant because that's just what everyone I knew did. I never knew they had a whole line out there that did other things for my skin, as well. I got an opportunity to try out the SD Advanced Intensive Concentrate for Wrinkles and Stretch Marks. There is Collagex-CE and NIA-114 which is StriVectins own wrinkle repair complex. There is two ounces of moisturizer that targets Collagen III or what they call "youth collagen". The claims: -Significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles  -Target 'youth collagen' for healthy, younger looking skin -Hydrate and visibly enhance skin texture ...

**Press Sample** MUUUUUDDDD MASSSKKKSSS!! Ok, so do you know why I just yelled that? Because that is literally what I do every time I get to do a mud mask or some kind of mask. I love treating myself in little ways and I have found it so very important especially now that I am getting older, have kids, have a crazy busy job and have zero to little time for myself. Masks are my little time away from real time for myself. On top of the fantastic makeup products that Borghese brings you, they also have these super luxurious masks as part of their Fango line. I am super excited to be showing you 4 of them today...but first, I am going to give you some details! Each of these come with two options of a 7 oz tube for $37.00 or 17.6 oz jar for $72.50. You always get free shipping with these. Now on to what exactly each of these babies do for my skin!  First up is the Active Mud for Face and Body. So, I only tried this on my face so that is what I will be speaking about. I actu...
