Review on Coastal Scents 66 Color Lip Palette and 10 Piece Blush Palette



I absolutely love this palette and its only 19.95 on the website (link at bottom of post) Some of the colors are shimmer, some are matte, and some have very fine glitter in them but they are all super smooth and arent sticky at all. I've included a picture of the swatches i did. Please keep in mind that the camera washes out the colors a bit so they are more vibrant than they look in the picture. Overall i would definitely recommend this palette to all you lip product lovers out there. There are so many colors and textures to choose from.


Swatches:



As for the Blush palette it is 16.95 on the website. There are 4 matte blushes and the rest are shimmer. These are extremely pigmented and actually stay on quiet a while. If you are looking for some great blushes you should try this palette.

The Mineral Eyeshadows are great, very pigmented and blendable.
The Brightening EyeColors are pretty good quality considering the price.
The Duo Eyeshadow Creams are good as a base if you dont use too much but i wouldn't use them as an eyeshadow, they tend to crease a bit when you use them alone.
Overall i would definitely recommend these products to anyone who is just starting out in makeup and is trying to build their collection as most of these are only $1. I also have some of the ELF nail polishes that i forgot to add in the picture but i will be doing a review on those as well. I will also be doing a few looks using these products.

Watermelon Crush




I know Summer is right around the corner, so i did a look inspired by Summer memories. Everyone remembers eating Watermelon outside with the family on a hot Summer evening. So here is a look that reminded me of that.
The colors dont show up as intense in my photo because i dont know how to use the settings on my camera yet. I have a Kodak EASYSHARE Z1012 IS Digital Camera, so if anyone knows how to do that please email me at jennysblog@yahoo.com and let me know.
Also, here is a link showing the Camera i have http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Kodak%20EASYSHARE%20Z1012%20IS%20Digital%20Camera:1995451042

Pantene Pro-V Restoratives Time Renewal Replenishing Mask Review

Ok, so I've been looking for a great hair mask for months with no luck. I was at Wal-Mart a while back and saw this product and decided to try it. Let me just say....this stuff is Amazing! Once a week, after you wash your hair, you apply the product and leave it in for about 5 minutes and then rinse it out. On the tub of product it says "Dramatically quenches parched hair leaving hair supple and restored while shielding it from damage"
I've been using this for about 5 weeks now and my hair feels so soft and smooth, the frizz is gone, and my hair is so moisturized. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has dried, damaged hair and is looking for an easy way to restore moisture to their hair.
