WunderBrow Tutorial and Review

WunderBrow is a gel my friend, Tomala, introduced me to. Once applied, it claims to last on your brows for days! It has hair- like fibers that affix to thin or sparse eyebrows to give you more shape and fullness. It was easy to apply.  It came with simple instructions and didn't take much time.  They even had one for Blonde hair! (Which is what I used) It comes in a box. Inside the box, you find the gel, (which looks like a tube of lip gloss) a spooley, and the instructions.  I did a quick tutorial on my first time applying it. 

You can check it out here:

For me, it only lasted three days.  However, I have to admit, I did forget about it and really scrubbed my face the first night, and the second night I was a little easier.  Day two, after getting out of the shower, I had to use the spooley to reshape them since the shower spayed down on them.  The color was still there, they just needed a little brushing to keep them in place. By day three, after I got out of the shower, it was patchy in some areas.  I just applied more to the sparse places. I do have to admit it made a difference and it really held my brows in place.  I usually fill them in with eyebrow gel and use a clear mascara to lock them in place, but this had the same effect only lasted a lot longer.  Definitely worth the purchase!!!

IlluMask- Worth the hype?

A year and a half ago, something very traumatic and stressful happened to me. Since then, I now have adult acne. Since that stress hasn't gone away, neither has my acne. I have even seen a dermatologist. I was on antibiotics for 3 months and it didn't help. Last year around this time I decided to try the illuMask. It's a mask that uses safe light therapy to kill acne and reduce inflammation. All you do is simply put the mask on, and push the button on the controller. It will automatically come on and stay on for 15 min. It shuts off on its own. You do it daily.

When I first used it last year, I didn't do it daily. Eventually, I put it away and forgot all about it.  The other day, while at Target, I found one on clearance. I bought it and dug out my old one to finish the remaining sessions I had on it.  I have been using it every single night for a week now. (Major accomplishment that I actually remember to do it every night! lol!) I can honestly say I have noticed a difference. So far I have seen a better difference than I did with the antibiotics the dermatologist put me on.

My First FabFitFun Box Unveiling

Have you ever heard of FabFitFun? It's a box that has health, beauty and fitness products in them. They are delivered 4 times a year. I ordered the Summer box a while back and just recently picked it up. The box has a $200 value for $49.99 plus free shipping. (I luckily had a coupon code so I didn't pay full price.) However, the website is offering 10% off at the moment!

When I first opened it up, I found a card on top of the wrapped paper. When I opened the card up, It lists every product in the box, a description of each product, plus the price of each item.

Breaking of the paper!!!!

It didn't look like a whole lot at first, but every time I would pull something out, I kept finding more in the box!

1. Vaseline Intensive Care Aloe Spray Moisturizer- (retail: $7.99) I actually use this a lot!!! I love it. It is so convenient to spray all over quickly.  One common misconception is that you just spray it on and go.   I mean, I guess you technically could, but it just feels too weird.  I always rub it in once I spray it all over. Regardless, I find it takes less time than regular body lotion! Plus, It's perfect for summer!

2. Scratch Nail Wraps- (retail: $12) I've never used them, nor heard of them.  I do like nail wraps, so I am excited to try them out! They supposedly last as long as polish. I'm excited to see! 

3. Tarte LipSurge LipGloss- (retail: $19) I love Tarte Lipglosses! I haven't tried this shade yet, but I can't wait to try it and feature it on an upcoming Lip Color of the Week post! They are non-sticky, and infused with vitamin E, jojoba oil and flower extract.

4. The Everyday Wireless Speaker-  (retail: $29.99) I could have really used this about a month ago while I was at the beach! This awesome little wireless speaker pairs up to 30 feet! It's also hands free speaker phone and Aux-in & FM radio!!!

5. Inkling Scents Sultry Roll-On Oil Perfume- (retail: $25) Oh my goodness, Y'all, this smells amazing!!!! I LOVE it! It is alcohol-free.  It smells like: creamy sandalwood,  white amber, lotus flower, orchid, Bulgarian rose and vanilla. It also comes with a 15% off coupon code if I want to purchase another one of their 20+ scents!

6. Gorge "I'll Make You Look Amazing" Daily Spray-  (retail: $24.95) At first, I thought this was an Argon type oil spray. It's actually a leave in conditioner! I can't wait to try this!

7. CosmoBody Jump Rope-  (retail: $14) I haven't used a jump rope in years!!! I used to love jumping rope.  Especially with my cousins.  Ames and Annie were the ones to teach me how to double dutch jump rope.  According to the FFF card, you can burn around 150 calories in a 10 minute session!!! Also, they have a workout video for you to view! Can't wait to do this later today! 

8. Hello Konjac Cleansing Sponge- (retail: $12) I actually saw this sponge on a vlogger video! It's used by Korean women to gently exfoliate and cleanse pores. It's suppose to be pillow soft.  The video I saw said to make sure you thoroughly rinse the sponge after you use it. Just hang dry.

9. Headspace 3-Month Subscription- (retail: $38.85) This app is guided meditations. Apparently, tons of Celebrities use this! It helps change your mindset and make your day.

10. Wren 14k Gold & Black Sapphire Necklace- ($100) I got the dainty gold horseshoe necklace with the black sapphire. It is super cute!

One of my Summer Must-Haves!

My cousin Misty introduced me to this product last year.  It's a bikini hair remover. I was so thankful! It's kinda like a high quality Nair.  Nair never seemed to work for me...ever! This stuff works really well. It says to leave on for 5 min, a max of 10. I noticed that 5 didn't completely get it all, so I go for the max of 10. It worked like a charm! I also love the packaging! When you take the cap off, you have to turn the tip around until it clicks to unlock.  The tip is rubber and you rub it on your area so you don't have to actually touch the hair remover.  Then, once you are done, you simply twist the tip again to lock in place. It is a tad costly, at Sephora, but I feel like it's worth it!

My Favorite Hand Lotion

Dead Sea Cosmetics Coral Hand & Body Lotion

 

The first time I got this hand lotion was in 2013. It was a gift and I absolutely loved it.  (Actually, I love most Dead Sea products.) I was bummed when I ran out.  I had no idea where I would find more.  Then, while on a family vacation, I found a store that carried it.  I was so excited!!!

I use this every night before bed.  Have you tried it before? What did you think?



Review: Kate Somerville Oil Free Moisturizer

I have super combo/oily skin.  I mean, ridiculously oily skin.  I have tried so many drug store oil free moisturizers, and none of them seem to work. Half way throughout the day I have to blot it with oil control papers. So embarrassing!!!! The last time I went to Sephora I decided to try the Kate Somerville brand. I have to say, wow! It was worth every penny!!!! It is expensive, but it's the only moisturizer I use that really seems to work!!!!

My favorite thing about this product is the top.  Instead of a regular moisturizer pump, it has the pump at the top where you simply push down and it delivers the perfect amount on top! So much nicer!!! I love it because you don't get those annoying "lotion boogers." (You know what I mean, the crusty at the tip of the pump that comes out first before the actual lotion comes out.) I have to say, the only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't have SPF in it.  Other than that, I LOVE it!!!
