Product Review - Indelible Gel Eyeliner

I've been wearing gel eyeliner for a couple years now. In my opinion, pencil liner can't even compare to gel. I will never go back.

As I was running out of the last brand of liner that I used, I decided to see what other brands were out there. I discovered that Loose Lips NY had a waterproof gel eyeliner. I've tried products from Loose Lips in the past, such as the brow quad and the mineral foundation. I was quite pleased with those products so I decided to give their gel liner a try.

The Indelible Gel Eyeliner arrived on Monday and after two days of wearing it, I love it! It goes on super easy with the use of the mini deluxe fluff brush. It stays on really well and it doesn't come off till I want it to. I decided to try my regular makeup remover before my waterproof makeup remover and the regular worked perfect. I love the color I chose, magnetism. Its a black color with some very faint gold specks.

I would highly recommend gel liner to all that wear eye liner, and at $20, the Indelible Gel Eyeliner is a perfect way to get started. Right now they are offering free shipping with the code juneship through 6/20 on orders over $15. Order here, and don't forget the brush!

New shoes!

I've been slow coming around to the gladiator sandal trend. At first I detested it, but then it slowly started to grow on me. Then I saw these shoes:
I'm not sure what it is about them, but I love them! For $23 I figured this was a perfect chance to try a trend that I've been on the fence about. It comes in black, white, tan and camel, but I really wanted to camel color. The only had one size left in that color, lucky for me it was half a size smaller than what I normally wear. After thinking for it about for like 15 minutes, I decided that I would take the chance and hope that they'd fit. Its a good thing I didn't wait too long because now they only have three colors left in very limited size selection.

They were a little difficult to actually get on, but once they were on, the fit great.



Now I just need to figure out what to wear them with.

Product Review - My Sephora Order

I finally got my Sephora.com order last friday. I had a chance to try the stuff out over the weekend.
That big box for this small product...

I love the Smashbox products, O-glow and O-gloss. The color is a prefect, natural color for spring and summer.

The Fiberwig Mascara is outstanding. It was definitely worth the splurge, my lashes looked fantastic. One delightful discovery about the mascara is the way it comes off. Instead of blackening the area around the eye, it comes off in clumps.

The eyebrow trimmer brush is a great invention. Now I can have perfectly groomed brows without leaving it up to the hand of other people.

I will most likely purchase these products again and I would definitely recommend all four of them.

Continuing my backless bra review

As promised on friday, I wore the new backless bra when I went out on Friday so I'll share my thoughts with you here.

When I wear the bra, it does not sit close to my body like a normal bra should, but both Nicole and Traci assured me that you couldn't tell and that it looked great. So despite the fact that I wasn't entirely comfortable, I wore it out to dinner. I was slightly uncomfortable with having to adjust it so much, but not unbearably so. Nicole got some pictures on her camera, so hopefully I can get those from her and get some shots up here for you all to see.

When we got back to Chaz's apartment and decided we were going dancing, I knew there was no way that I could dance freely and keep that bra on at the same time, so I slipped on the back-up camisole.

I'm stubborn though, I really want to make this bra work because I love the backless look so much. I'm determined to find a way.

No wardrobe malfunctions please.

Ever since I bought the new backless bra from Maidenform, I've been obsessed with open-back, backless, and keyhole tops and dresses. When a friend on Kaboodle found this particular top, I had to buy it. I'm obsessed with yellow this season, along with pink and gray.

I still haven't figured out how to make the backless bra stay on properly other than having perfect posture and not leaning forward. I'm going to chance it and wear the combo when I go out tonight. To be safe, I'm going to slip my cami with the built in bra into my purse in case I find myself in a sticky situation. I hope it works out, because I've always loved the open back look.

If you've figured out a way to keep the bra on, please let me know. If you've also purchased this bra, I'd love to hear what your thoughts are on it.

Product Review - Backless Bra

Last Friday, I ordered Maidenform's New Backless Bra. On the website, it said it was available for preorder, but when I went to order it, the black was available, the nude color was on backorder. I decided to just order the nude color and wait. Well, not even an hour later, I got an email telling me my order had shipped. Shocked, but pleased, I started tracking it on DHL's website. It arrived yesterday so I got to try it out last night.

First impression, I'm not a fan.

The part of the bra where the wire is has a rubber lining I suppose to help it stay in place. I thought that was great so I adjusted the straps and put it on. Once its in place, it looks great, you think its gonna work. However, the minute I started moving, it started moving out of place. I put my keyhole shirt on thinking it might help the bra to stay in place. Yeah, not so much. I have bad posture so the minute my shoulders relax and roll forward, the cups are no longer where they should be.

Another issue I had is the straps sit on the outer edge of your shoulder so they were hanging out of my tank top. This is something I find to be really tacky.

I'm gonna give it another try, however I'm not confident that this is something I could wear out in public yet. If anyone figures out how to keep the cups in place or keep the straps hidden, let me know. I really wanted this bra to work.

New Hair

I got my hair done on Tuesday night. I've been meaning to take pictures of it before I wrote about it, but I've been too busy to take the time to take pictures. So I decided I'll show you some pictures later.

Basically, I just wanted to thank everyone that voted in my poll on what color to dye my hair. I'm a really indecisive person so its good to get advice from friends.

Zach Norman at Lunatic Fringe in Salt Lake is fabulous. No lie. If you are searching for a new stylist, he is the guy, I recommend scheduling an appointment with him right away.

I told Zach that I wanted to go a lighter shade of brown for spring and he did the rest. He did something called a color melt on me where its darker at the roots and lighter at the ends. He also is great at telling me how to style my hair and what products will work best for me. This time, I decided to try out a hair powder and a protective treatment. So far, I love them.

I promise you there will be lots of picture taking this weekend as my dad is getting married, we'll be celebrating Traci's birthday some more and its Easter on Sunday. So stay tuned if you want to see me with a lighter hair color!

New product!

Last week I ordered Brow Quad from Loose Lips NY.

It arrived today at work. (I love having things delivered to me at work by the way, it makes the day exciting!)

Sherry is so cute, she always sends a cute personalized letter and this time she sent me a lip gloss with my order! How fun!

I can't wait to try out the product and see how it works!
