Aveeno Creamy Oil


Hi Everyone...Once again I want to thank you guys for stopping by I love reading the feed back and experience with the products I post.

Aveeno Creamy Moisturizing Oil: 
My journey begins with trying to find a body lotion that wasn't to heavy in scent the older I have gotten. I have noticed that I don't like strong have scented smells like I use too. So I went to Target to purchase a facial was which is another winter journey which I will be posting about also. Well  I was looking threw the aisle and shelves and remembered that my best friend mentioned Aveeno body products to me and I have only really used 3 of there facial products before and really enjoyed that experience. So I am looking at the Aveeno lotion's and saw this it say oil on it all I could think about was a greased up chicken or me looking like I was going to go into a pan...lol Then I proceed to read some more and see that it is non-greasy so I went for it and I am totally in love with this product for the winter. My body normally gets really dry in the winter and itchy which is uncomfortable. I had been using bath and body lotions or VS body butters which I still love but I felt like I needed something more moisturizing. They also had other types of lotions that can suit you.

Aveeno Status:

  •  Helps to leave a protective barrier 
  • Which prevents water loss to help maintain moisture all day long 
  • The AVEENO oatmeal formulas are also known to soothe and moisturize itchy, extra dry skin

Mabelline Master Precise by Eye Studio

Black Eyeliner


Maybelline-Eye Studio Master Precise Eyeliner: If you want to line your eyes with a dollar store marker you have just found your match!!! This Maybelline product is one of their worst. I dislike this product not only is the black not intense but the tip of the eyeliner sucks. I gave this product a total1 out of 5. I brought it at Walgreens for $7.99 not on sale (Silly me). I will try to use it again, but I think I am truly better off using my other eyeliners then this. I might just use it for my son's projects...lol

Maybelline States:

  •  Exclusive felt tip. Never dries.
  •  Never skips. 
  • Ultra-thin 0.4mm brush supplies smooth, even lines.  
  • No mess or excess.

Thanks for coming leave your comments and questions below...Nikk

Borghese Nail Polish on Sale 75% Off

I just wanted to inform you guys about a sale one of my friends informed me about today. Rite Aid Pharmacy is having a 75% off sale on their Borghese nail polishes. I don't know if every Rite Aid is hosting this sale but the one around us is. I have used the top coat and have yet to try the colored nail polishes but with a sale like this I will definitely try a few. Thanks again for stopping in and reading my blog.

Just A thought...

Base and Top Coat

These are my current base and top coat. I was searching for a while for a great base coat and came across Orly rubberized base coat and I have to say that it's been one of the best base coats I have tried. The top coat I normally use is the 3 in 1 by Sally Hasen. I have used the top coat forever but I got bored and decided to venture out. So I purchased Borghese quick drying top coat. It was ten bucks and it does the job but nothing special. I want to try another quick drying top coat. Any suggestions? Leave me a comment below.

Urban Decay Primers

Left to Right: Greed, Original, and Sin

These are the Urban Decay Primers I own and use on a regular bases. A few years back I had no idea what were primers and what it was used for and when people were raving about it I really didn't fall right into the trend, should we say I didn't run to Sephora or Ulta and going to buy these primers. I was curious to see if concealer would do the trick and boy was I wrong. I received one as a X-mas present from a friend and the rest was history!!! I think that these are really are great they make your eyeshadow last longer and definitely not crease. I want to purchase the matte one very single time I go to Sephora it is sold out. I normally use them as they are meant for but Greed and Sin I can put them on if I am in a rush in the morning or going to do something where my making up needs to be quick and effortless. I have yet to try another brand besides Mac's painterly paint pot which is okay but I think it's a bit over hyped and over rated. That is only my opinion and everyone will feel different about it.

Thanks again for reading my post and please feel free to leave a comment or suggestions below and tell me your experience with the UD Primers.
