Urban Decay Mystery Travel Bag

Hey Beauties!

I had some time today to work on the Urban Decay Mystery Travel Bag pictures! Thanks for being so patient! This bag was only $16.00 USD and it contained $45.00 USD worth or products! I was totally excited when I received the package. Sorry again, that it took a while for me to post it, with work, school, and the holidays coming up I hadn't had the chance! I haven't tried any products yet, so if you'd like to know how I liked it let me know! I liked what I received, I mean for $16.00, its not so bad!

I will be posting up a TAG that I got from Youtube's make up guru ItsJudyTime! She is one of my Inspirations!! Have you guys seen her? Judy, her husband Benji and newborn baby Julianna are adorable! Check them out! Just search ItsJudytime or ItsJudyslife on Youtube. It should be up Friday or Saturday!

I received a $5.00 off coupon for my next purchase, TSA approved make up bag, Sample of Naked Skin Beauty Balm, a 15 mL spray of All Nighter make up setting spray (retails for $12.00), 2.5g 24/7 glide on shadow pencil in Rehab(full size retails for $20.00 USD), 10 mL Lip Junkie Lipgloss in Naked (retails for $19.00 USD), and 5.4 mL Supercurl curling mascara (full size retails for $20.00 USD).

Daiso/Japanese Haul

Hey Beauties!

Finals are almost done & I'm super excited! I think I did pretty well this semester! ANYWAYS, anyone excited for the holidays besides me?! I won't be able to see my extended family this year but its okay. Also, just an FYI, the Urban Decay Travel bag will be up on Wednesday, I had a few issues with the pictures (sorry of my life! jk). O_o

On to the haul, I was in San Jose, Ca. visiting my in laws and had some time to shop, so I wanted to stop by Daiso, and if you haven't been to Daiso, your missing out! Jk. Daiso is a little Japanese store that has beauty products, home decor products, supplies, almost everything! I love this store because it so affordable (normally $1.50 or less unless stated otherwise) and I believe most of the stuff are imported from Japan. They have an online store as well that you can purchase whole sale.

 I purchased two eye lashes in #7 and #12, a pink lash case with a cute bow, 3 hair ties with bows on them, and bow hair tape (I didn't get this at Daiso, I purchased it at the store next door for $4.95), and a Koji Dolly Wink eyeliner pencil in black (Forgot to snap a picture but it cost $12.95 at the same store I got the bow hair tape). Do you see a "bow" trend going on? I have no idea but lately I been into bows. Well that is it! Stay tune for the Urban Decay Travel Bag and a TAG, I got from Youtube!

XOXO,
Jennikae <3

Cosmo Voxbox Review Fall 2012

Hey Beauties!

I have been trying out all the products in my Cosmo Voxbox, and I must admit that EVERYTHING in that box was AMAZING!! I was totally impressed! I received the Forever Red Perfume from Bath and Body Works, a Venus razor with an Embrace cartridge and an Olay refill cartridge, Ghirardelli Sea Salt Escape Chocolate, and two Frixion pens in black and orange. I will let you know what I thought of each of the products that I have received.

Forever Red Perfume from Bath & Body Works: The Forever Red Perfume smelt so amazing, I got many compliments on the smell and how it complimented me. I think the perfume is good for an everyday scent and an occasional scent to wear out on a date. My husband loved the smell, and he has a hard time tolerating  any of my perfumes. The cost for this is pretty affordable, for a 25 fl. oz it cost about $10.00, and for a full size it costs $44.50.

Gillette Venus Razor: I normally use men razors because I think they get the job done better than most women razors. I must admit the Venus razor with the Olay refill was amazing, it got the job done and even made my skin smooth and soft. I tried the Venus Embrace cartridge and it was just okay, I do prefer the Olay, plus it smelt good! The blades would cost roughly about 3.50-4.50 per month for the refills.

FriXion by Pilot Pen: Like my twitter states, I don't doodle much, but I am constantly writing notes in class and notes to myself, in which I need a reliable pen. The FriXion pens writes so nice, it makes even my scribble writing beautiful! LOL. I had the black pen and the orange color pen. The orange is good for my side notes, but I did prefer the black ink. The best thing about these pens are the eraser; they erase really good. I was impressed with the eraser because most pens with erasers pretty much SUCK! (excuse my language). These pens cost about $4.50 for a 3-pack and $11.00 for an 8-pack.

Ghurardelli Gourmet Milk Sea Salt Escape: Its chocolate, is there more to say?! YES, I actually shared this with my husband and brother, and they LOVED IT, just as much as I did. I'm rather picky when it comes to eating chocolate (strange right?), but this one was so yummy, I actually craved more! I do plan to purchase more, and see what other flavors they have! =] These cost about $2.79($4.35 online).

Please share your experience with any of the products above in the comments below, or if you plan on trying any of them!

Disclaimer: I received each product from the Cosmo Voxbox complementary for testing purposes from Influenster. These are all my 100% opinion.

XOXO,
Jennikae <3

Maybelline's Eye Studio Color Tattoo Review

Hey beauties!!

I purchased two of the Maybelline's Eye Studio 24hr Color Tattoo Gel cream shadows in Bad to the Bronze (#25) and Pomegranate Punk(#30), and I must say that I LOVE this product! It comes in a small jar that contains about 4 grams of product. I purchased it at Walmart, but I'm positive that you can purchase these at Ulta, Target, and any other drug stores. They are pretty affordable, ranging from $5 to $6 dollars each. The Color Tattoos come in about 9 different shades and I believe that they are coming out with a new collection of different colors. (I'm not sure if it came out already though)

The Color Tattoos are great as a base and great alone. They are very pigmented and blends very nicely. I wore it for about 10-12 hours and it didn't crease nor fade. I don't think I can wear eye shadow for a full 24 hours, can you? LOL! It is easy to apply (I use my fingers because I think it is the easiest), it is also easy to take off with make up remover wipes.

I honestly love this product, I have yet to find any bad things to say about it, so THANKS Maybelline, Keep the colors coming! =)
Overall, I am definitely purchasing more colors! Hope this helps! Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend!

XOXO,
Jennikae <3

Black Friday MINI Haul

Hey Beauties!!
I had to work on Black Friday so I was only able to get a few goodies! I got some good deals at Old Navy and Ross (if you want to see what I got comment below and let me know). I got some lipsticks from L'Oreal and Maybelline, which I am totally excited about because they seem to be the best colors for Fall/Winter season. I also bought a couple of eye shadows from L'Oreal and Maybelline, I wasn't sure I would like them but they are pretty awesome! I decided to purchase Too Faced Lashgasm mascara, and I am not going to lie, but it was worth every pennie! <3 That is it for now! Keep an eye out, I have something exciting to share with you guys!

XoXo,
Jennikae <3
