Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat
Monday, August 8th, 2011
If you like O.P.I’s shatter, you’ll really like Sally Hansen’s Crackle Overcoat as well. It’s less expensive, and it comes in 8 shades. The crackle overcoat is a nail polish that separates upon application, revealing the shade of nail polish you put underneath. Our favorite combination was the black crackle over white nail polish. You only need one coat of Crackle, and it dries in 60 seconds. We also used Crackle with Sally Hansen’s Double Duty Strengthening Base & Top Coat, it made our manicure last forever! Every nail will have its own unique mosaic pattern. To see what Crackle looks like watch the video here.

Broadway Nails Fashion Diva Go Glam
Tuesday, August 2nd, 2011
If you like Minx nails but don’t want to spend the $60 on a trip to the nail salon, you may want to try Broadway Nails Fashion Diva Go Glam. They are press on nails and last only about a week, but Minx Nails are only guaranteed to last about 4-8 days. It’s also a great way to decide whether or not you want to try a very unique look before devoting a lot of money to it. If you get the Fashion Diva Go Glam in Metal, you can compare it to the Minx Zebra Black & Silver Professional.

Lumene Pure Radiance Day Cream SPF 15
Tuesday, July 19th, 2011
We have found the most luxurious drug store brand day cream! Lumene’s Pure Radiance Day Cream is rich without being too greasy. It has a great fresh scent and contains vitamin Cc to brighten the complexion, plant sterols for moisture balance, and antioxidants to protect the skin from future aging. We really liked the feel of it and the texture it gave our skin. It serves as an excellent base to prep your skin for foundation. However, if you have oily skin this is probably too heavy for you as a daytime moisturizer.

Dr. LeWinn by Kinerase Instant Dermal Wrinkle Filler
Friday, July 15th, 2011
If you are impatient with skincare results you’ll like Dr. LeWinn by Kinerase Instant Dermal Wrinkle Filler. It has kinetin which promotes long-term wrinkle reduction over time, but it also smoothes wrinkles in ten minutes with osilift. Osilift is made of oat kernel sugars and creates an invisible film on the skin. This formula is also rich in anti-oxidants, a must for any anti-age product. Of course, this product doesn’t give the same results as injectables, but we thought it worked great for wrinkles.

Kiss Premium Eyelashes with Applicator Strings – Product Review
Thursday, June 30th, 2011
Putting on false eyelashes can be pretty challenging. Kiss has tried to make the process easier with applicator strings. With the strings you can strategically place eyelashes without getting glue all over your hands! We tried it and really liked the strings but it was pretty difficult to get them back on again for re-use the way Kiss had them. Our verdict is that it made eyelash application easier, but it definitely still requires some skill!

Revlon CustomEyes Shadow & Liner
Monday, June 27th, 2011
The smoky eye look doesn’t always have to be gray and black eyeshadow. With Revlon’s CustomEyes Shadow & Liner palette in Smoky Sexy, you can get a smoky look with blues and grays. This palette has four eyeshadows and a fifth color that you can use as eyeliner. We really liked the bright take on smoky eyes for the summer. However, since these are vibrant blue hues, it will look more tame if you take the pointed end of the applicator and use the black shade to frame the eye. These shadows are not highly pigmented, so if you’re looking for more oomph try dampening the sponge applicator that comes with the set before applying your eyeshadow.
