Lots of GOODIES!!!!! Garnier,Girlactik,Sally Hansen, Revaleskin, Milani and Maybelline



Okay, so i officially just got money and just spent said money on the following goodies haha...all i can say is it better be WELL worth it!!! :)



When I wear my hair curly, i want it to have a lot of body, at the roots, which it doesn't have...it always just gets 'poofy'...rolls eyes...which i hate! geez....but anyway, that's why i got this Garnier Bold It Power-putty, in hopes that will give me that root booster...so i'mma try that!

So I originally only went to the store to get 1 Girlactik lipgloss - Ooh La La Red, and possibly an eyeshadow from Makeup Designory, if they had it...but they didn't so i got that Girlactik eyeshadow in Haute instead...then, ended up getting the Just Sexy Lipgloss...it's so gorgeous...i love corals, it's so perfect! It's pinky, peachy, with gold shimmer! Love!!!


Ooh La La Red on top and Just Sexy below.Maybelline Seductively Nude swatch:










I've really been trying to get some new skin care products, but I can't use any regular brand past two weeks or breakout alert! If it's not natural I can't use it for a long period of time without this breakout happening... I don't know why...but I thought Revaleskin was natural when I heard about it, but I see all kinds of SLS and stuff in the ingredient listing so now I'm not sure, but I'm gonna try it out and see how it goes. I will report back!! I also didn't get the day cream because God knows I have enough of those...but I have no night cream so I just got that one, and check out the size of that facial cleanser! it's HUGE! haha It's 6 fl oz.
UPDATE!! - The facial cleanser made my face feel tight afterwards...and dry. I didn't use the moisturizer...i'm going to try that later, but still, i don't get that tight feeling with my Neutrogena Age-Reverse cleanser...(which i love, it's so creamy, has a beautiful white with gold sparkle formulation, and leaves my face soft and not tight feeling! We'll see, I'll continue using the Revaleskin anyway)


Okay so lastly, the nail polishes! I love these bright colours so I'm really excited to have gotten my hands on these. I have a really pretty pink that I made be mixing 2 polishes to get, i named it Disco Pink cuz it sometimes looks purple, then pink, then bright pink, then pink with a blue sheen....so pretty,i can't believe i made it! haha...so that's why no swatches for them but i've seen some on some other blogs. If you need to see it I will swatch it for you!! Just lemme know!
L-R _-Milani -Neon Lites, Sally Hansen -Purple Potion, Top Coat and Marine Scene.

I always see tags for top 10 fave lip products, etc, but looking at my collection, and thinking of my overly deep love for lip goodies i could never do that...I dunno, i have too many that I seriously love....and to rank them, and pick 10 I just can't....but anyway, I got a request to reveal my collection so here goes :)

Jamaica, Jamaica!!

Okay, I guess I was feeling a little uninspired lately...because I didn't think I had anything to blog about but, I think what I can do is focus more on some Jamaican things! Like...did anyone see Nitro Circus on MTV that was filmed in Jamaica???...it was hilarious and authentic. It showed the likes of the Rough Riders, Krash Test Dummies and the Bobsled team! I loved it! T'was fun!

Usain Bolt, our legend and superstar athlete, was in an accident today...imagine the horror and shock waves sent around our tiny island?? Not cute! But I saw the local news and he's alright...got some cuts from the bushes he had to walk on when he came out the wreckage...Danggg...the beautiful spankin' new BMW M3 was totaled....it turned over and landed on its head. He is blessed...as well as the other passengers!! He's got an angel, boy!

Tami Chynn, one of my favourite local artistes, recently did a beautifully, fun performance at the Blue Beat in Montego Bay, St James - Jamaica. I'll put a link for it...you'll enjoy it :) Part 2 should pop up after part 1 is done...watch that too it's funny and wicked of course!



Alright...back to beauty...one of my fave nail bloggers Michelle from All Lacquered up, recently posted about this nail polish...and this pic is from her blog! http://www.alllacqueredup.com/ ... Big up Michelle!




















I saw some new Milani nail polishes this week..including my favourite one - Totally Cool (pictured above)- and i didn't get to get it :( I'm so upset...hopefully it will be there when i go back right? Also, i wanna try that Garnier Fructis' Bold It putty business....looks like it will give me some va-va-voom! Doesn't Garnier's lime green packaging just pop out at your eyes? You just can't miss it!














Any thoughts on the above?

Milani Nail Polish in Sunflash


With flash


In natural light




Hey Hey Hey!!!So i was looking for a really nice yummy orange nail polish and came across this.

In the store, it looked orange in the bottle but when the light hit it, it showed up this lovely pink sparkle..so i had to get it! It reminds me of spring, and tropical islands and it's just bright and pretty! :)

Doesn't it look a lot more orange in the daylight? :) It's so pretty! :) It's not the bright neon orange I wanted...although I did get that too...hopefully will post a pic of that next week or so when I change my polish.
