TIP TUESDDAY!

Yes, tanning still isn't safe but, i know you all tan, or would love to have a tan. Here is my TANNING TIPS:

OUTDOOR TANNING... 

MY FAVORITE:

If you're tanning outside:

Wear sunscreen. Sunscreen is an absolute must.  Sunscreen has an SPF factor, which is the number of times you're being protected by the sun's harmful UV (ultraviolet) rays. This means that sunscreen still allows you to get a tan; it just makes tanning more gradual and prevents you from burning.

Re-apply. You need to apply sunscreen approximately 20 minutes before going outside, and re-apply if you go into the water, even if your lotion is waterproof.

Do NOT use oil.  oil is literally asking the sun to radiate your skin and fry you.

Do not get burned. Speaking of getting burned, people erroneously believe that a burn will fade away into a nice tan. This could not be more false. A burn will cause your skin to become all blistery and splotchy (since a sunburn means you have broken blood vessels), and your skin will just peel away to reveal the next layer.

Think gradual. The best attitude when it comes to tanning, You will not get a great tan in one day, but you will after several days of being exposed to the sun.

MEGA PLUSH MASCARA REVIEW

Today I'm reviewing the, Maybelline mega plush mascara. As you all know this is the newest mascara Maybelline has come out with, the packaging is as always the cutest. This time they came out with the mint green and purple, which mint green is super on trend this spring and summer. I am usually a big fan of Maybelline's mascaras, my all time favorite is their One by One mascara! When i heard this was coming out i researched it a little, i was excited that it was for volume and that the bristles are the classic bristles not the rubber ones, although the One by Ones bristles are rubber, i prefer the classic ones. The wand also comes with a joint in it to allow more bending.

My Thoughts:

I have been using this for a bit now, and i have to say i am disappointed, BUT, i do still like the product.
i think this mascara is perfect for summer because it makes your lashes look so natural, i didn't find it voluminous at all but it is extremely lengthening on my lashes. It does help hold a curl even in really hot weather which is once again great for summer! One thing i don't like is the bend in the wand, i think you lose a lot of control because of this modification.
I like that this product is very affordable, and i think the results could have been better IF they had added more bristles to the brush!
If your one who has A LOT of lashes already you will love his product, and i still recommend it to anyone for a more natural but lengthy look.

TIP TUESDAY!

Exercise might seem cliche to you when it comes to feeling better, but trust me when I say this. It helps! Even if you aren't trying to get fit or lose weight or anything exercising will get you in a better mood, and out of those lazy moods. Wether you go on a walk for 30 minutes or a jog, basically any type of physical activity will help you live a better life. And unconsciously it will motivate you to do more:)
So go out there and get out of the slump! Tell me what exercises you like and what works for you!
Until then, have a good week, see you next time!

Trop50 REVIEW!

 


Hey just here to tell you about one of my favorite juices at the moment. The Tropicana raspberry lemonade is so tasty and has 50% less sugar and calories. Picked it up one day didn't think anything of it, but yes it is amazing! Try it out let me know what you think!

Olay REVIEW!

Hey guys so today I am making a different kind of review. My mom purchased this product for herself because she had run out of her previous face wipes. She purchased the Olay 2- in-1 daily facial cloths, thinking they were the original wet wipes. She told me to do a review on them because she was so dissatisfied. So I did myself test the wipes but not on my face because they are scented. But after applying my makeup I took one of the wipes and applied water on it since they are dry cloths and it just started foaming and being super liquid. Then I wiped the makeup off of my hands and it didn't even work good at all I still had foundation residue. My moms main complaints were that one they were dry not wet and no where on the package did it say that. Second of all you have to rinse your face after using these( so she could simply be using her face wash) and three they didn't work well. They leave your face or for me hands not feeling fresh! With all that said neither mom or I recommend this product to you guys. It's inconvenient and not very functional!

Clarins REVIEW!

Today I'm here to tell you about my favorite lipgloss! I found this product pretty interesting, mainly because I has heard so many things about it and multiple people said they didn't find anything special to it. So I picked it up and let me tell you this product is amazing! Its called the Clarins insta light natural lip perfector and mine is in 01 Rose.The taste first of all is great it is sweet but doesn't taste like anything. It is the creamiest lipgloss I have ever tried. 2 bonus features: it is non sticky but lasts so long! The color is subtle but in a way hides all imperfection and evens out the pigment in the lip. It is a great product for anyone I think that the amazing consistency makes it suitable to anybody! One of my favorite things about this product is the applicator which it comes in a squishy tube and a chrome lid, the tip to apply with is a fussy little pad where the product is dispensed from. Since these are a Clarins product, which is high end they do retail for a bit more money. The full size retails for almost 30$ which is a lot but for me it is well worth it! If you try it out let me know in the comments down below!
