Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer

Hey Everyone! Today I'm going to be reviewing a concealer that I recently got by Maybelline. It is the Instant Age Rewind Eraser for Dark Circles. I've been wanting to try this out for a long time now and I was running out of a liquid concealer so I thought now was the perfect time to try this out. To be honest I've had mixed results when using liquid concealers, sometimes they cover my dark circles and sometimes they don't. I feel like they are quicker to use, if that makes sense, so I like to at least have one on hand. The color that I got was Light 120 and I think that it blended really nicely with skin. I have to admit I was a little worried because it looked darker in the tube but I like this shade better than the Fit Me one I'm running low on.

The end is fluffy and soft, it feels like a pom pom!

The right side needed a bit more blending but I think you get the idea.

To sum it up here are the pros and cons for this product:

Pros

• Blended into skin well
• Light formula
• Soft applicator- distributes good amount of product
• Nice packaging
• Applicator end claims to have anti-microbial properties
• Concealed and brightened eye area!
• Stayed on all day, without setting it with powder!

Cons

• Applicator end was a little big for my eye area
• End will get dirty eventually, needs to be maintained

Overall I think I have to go ahead and give this product an A+! I think its a really great product and concealed my dark circles very well! I also loved how it stayed on all day and didn't even crease which is something that's hard for me to find in a concealer. The texture is also very smooth and silky so it goes on really well. Very impressed with this product and I'm glad I tried it! Check out my video review to see the product in action!

I Can't Wait!

Hey Everyone!

I just wanted to make a quick post about an amazing email I got recently. If you don't already know I'm involved with this website called Influenster (I have a post talking more about this so check that out). I recently got an email notifying me that I will be getting the Holiday VoxBox! Yayyyy!!! I'm so excited and I can't wait to see what I get to try out! I just wanted to give you guys a heads up so you know whats in store for the future. I know I haven't posted anything on here/Youtube for awhile however I've had some things going on that I'm trying to take care of however I hope to start posting more stuff soon!  Until then, see you soon!

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain

Hey Everyone! Here are some more thoughts and pictures of the Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain sticks that I have. I really love these products and they're great for everyday use! I love how build-able the colors are and how you can get a sheer or bold lip from one product! They also have a lot of color shades available. These retail around $6.99-$7.99 which isn't bad compared to similar products on the market that cost more.

I used coupons so I got mine a little cheaper. The colors I have are Charm, Honey, Cherish, and Lovesick. I can't really point out a favorite however I do really like the natural glow I get from Cherish. The packaging is also really nice on these, I like how travel friendly they are and how I don't have to worry about the cap coming off or anything like that. The colors on the tube of each of these balms are also very true to the color in the tube.

I think they are a really good representation of what you're getting in the tube. As for the texture I these balms go on very smooth and I don't find them particularly drying. I wouldn't say the really moisture your lips but they don't dry them out either. The staying power of these is also very good, they are stains so they do tint your lips even after the balm has been wiped off. Check out my video review to see these products in action!

Crest Whitestrips Unboxing

Hey Everyone! Today I want to just take about a product I received to review for Influenster. Earlier this month I received the Crest 3D Whitestrips! If you don't know what Influenster is you can check out  an earlier post on this blog titled "Influenster!". Basically it's this really neat website that will send you free samples of products in what they call a VoxBox to test out in exchange for your opinion. This is my first VoxBox so I was really excited to get a full box of these whitestrips. I go into a little more depth in my video review so check that out to see more. They did send me a full sized product which is great because I get to fully test out the product they way it's meant to be used! Below are some photos of what I got and as I continue to use these I will probably do an update on this blog to let you know how things are going.

Check out my video review below to learn more!

October Birchbox 2012!

Hey Everyone! I never got around to posting up photos for the October box so here they are in case you want a closer look!

Five samples for this month, and they're all a pretty good size too!

Essie nail polish in Powerclutch, it retails for $8 which almost covers the cost of the whole box.

Everything all lined up together. Not a bad box!

I saw several reviews of this box on Youtube and some people weren't too happy with their boxes for that month but I think I got some pretty good samples. I especially like the nail polish and the body wash from Kiehl's. The only thing I would say I don't like is the Luna bar just because I'm not a big fan but other than that I was happy. See you guys next time!

Influenster!

Hey Everyone! I'm going to make a video about this later but I wanted to let you guys know here first! I got my first VoxBox from Influenster, kind of. Influenster is kind of new to me but let me explain what it's about. Influenster is this cool website that gives users the opportunity to review and try out new products.

I joined the site a couple months ago after seeing a video about it on YouTube and yesterday I finally got a box! This box is a little different from the regular ones that I've seen on YouTube because it only contains one product/sample but I'm still very excited about it! I'm not going to go into too much detail with this post because I'm going to do another one about the product later on. I got the Crest 3D Whitestrips to try out and yes it is a full size product which is amazing! It's not like I got 2 or 3 strips to try out, I got a full product which includes the 20 whitestrips!

I think having a full product will really make it easier find out the full effects of this product. Sometimes when I get sample sizes of products, like shampoo for example, its hard to know how well the product works. Some things  need to be used more than once to get the full effect and Influenster gets that. Overall I'm really happy with the VoxBox and I can't wait to start trying out this product!
