Orly Spellbound Flash Glam FX Collection

Orly recently re-released three of the polishes from their Flash Glam FX collection in a trio for Halloween. The three colors are Monster Mash (Green), Right Amount Of Evil (Orange), and R.I.P. (Black and Red). On the displays in store they also have Liquid Vinyl which is from their permanent collection. The Flash Glam FX polishes retail for $10.00 but Liquid Vinyl is only $8.50. If you purchase them at Ulta, like I did, right now they are buy two get one free. I picked up all three of the Flash Glam FX polishes but skipped on Liquid Vinyl as I already have a black creme polish. I really like these polishes and hope they release more colors in the future as I missed out on the original release.

E.L.F. Studio HD Blush Fall 2012

Superstar

Showstopper

Headliner

Diva

Encore

I am so glad that a drugstore brand has finally come out with something that seems to be a dupe of the Make Up For Ever HD Blushes at a fraction of the price. The Make Up For Ever blushes retail for $26.00 and the E.L.F. ones retail for only $3. Thats a huge difference. Right now E.L.F. has only released five different shades but they vary in shades. I personally ordered Headliner and Superstar for the moment to see how they end up working out on my skin. E.L.F. promises highly pigmented color that creates a long-lasting result for all day wear. I cannot wait for these to come in the mail along with some other goodies that I ordered. I will definitely post a review once I actually get them in the mail. These are available for purchase on the E.L.F. website for now but I hope to see them in stores soon.

Hard Candy World Balmination in Good Girl

Hard Candy is one of my favorite drugstore brands for several reasons, mainly because of the quality of the products. One of my favorite products from them is their tinted lip balm, which they call World Balmination. I love how catchy the names of their products are. The one that I picked up is called Good Girl. This shade is the perfect peachy pink. World Balmination lip balms don't have a whole lot of pigmentation to them, but they do have a great glossy finish. This line of lip balms is very moisturizing and have a great lemony sugar scent to them. These lip balms retail for only $3.00 exclusively at Wal-Mart. Way to go Hard Candy!!

Influenster.....NEW and IMPROVED!

I am sure you have all heard of Influenster and their VoxBox program. Well for all of you who have, I am sure you are as excited as I am with their new website. Essentially still the same program, just upgraded. Before the upgrade they only had a few badges, but now there are tons. There are Expert Badges, VoxBox Badges, LifeStage Badges and Brand Badges. Within each of those categories there are tons more badges to explore and earn. They have also added new ways other than just a survey to be able to earn the badges. That's what really sticks out to me the most is what they have done with the badges. As of right now, there's not a single bad thing I could say about the new and improved Influenster.

The Original Dish Drying Mat Review

I received my The Original Dish Drying Mat in my Influenster Naturals VoxBox 2012 for the purposes of reviewing. I absolutely love this!! I have had a dish drying mat before, but I like this one so much better. It is so much more absorbent, 4x more to be exact, and it just feels like it is made of much higher quality materials. These specific mats retail for $4.99 and can either be bought at Bed Bath and Beyond or on their website. I definitely recommend these for people who don't have dishwashers or people who like to hand wash certain things.

Ruby Kisses HD Nail Polish in She A Goldigger

I was recently given the chance to review several products from Ruby Kisses Cosmetics, and this is one of the ones that stuck out to me when I first opened the package. This nail polish is what I would consider a true yellow gold. It also has some gold shimmer, which I am not sure if it will show up in pictures or not. The brush is very different that would you would expect to see. It is one of those wider ones like what Sally Hansen uses in their Insta-Dri line but it doesn't have the rounded tip. It is just cut straight across to make it easy to cover the nail in just one stroke. I found that this nail polish has pretty good wear, but I would definitely suggest a base/top coat combination as well.  Ruby Kisses carries a lot of products in a very wide range that are affordable so I would highly suggest checking them out. They are sold at a lot of beauty supply stores, but I don't have any near me that do so you can also check online retailers or even Ebay. Ruby Kisses was kind enough to send me some extra products for a giveaway so definitely stay tuned for that.
