My Recent Wet n Wild Purchases

Hi guys once again I want to say thank you for stopping by and commenting and following my blog. I know I haven't posted anything in a few day and I apologize. I been super busy but I purchase these Wet n Wild items like two weeks ago and I wanted to post it up and let you guys know what I thought.

The Matte Lipsticks: Are great quality for the price they glide on smooth and last a while on my lips. They been out for sometime now but I forgot about them in my drawer which I have these lipsticks in other shades also but I wore one this weekend and got so many complements. I always top them with a lipgloss for some shine.
Colors: Vamp it up, Wine Room, Sugar Plum Fairy, and Red Velvet.

Nail Polishes: These are also great for the price they retail for $1.99 depending where you purchases them and where you live. They don't have a huge selection but enough to get by for the beginning of spring. The brush is a professional wide brush included in Salley Hansen and other nail polishes. The nail polish last 3 to 4 days again depending on your activities.
Colors: Through the grapevine, I Red a Good Book.

Well this is my short review or outlook on these products. Thanks for stop in!

Oxox,

My Daily Shower Routine






These are a few things that I absolutely love and use on a daily bases. I am a total sucker for Aveeno products and they just don't fail me. I have used many shampoos and conditioners but for the size and price I really do enjoy Tresseme and the line I am currently using by them is the Anti-breakage one which I think is pretty great. I was a blonde about maybe a year ago and decided that I need to dye my hair back to a dark color which I am so happy I did. I rarely change what I like a whole lot in the shower the older I have gotten I have stopped buying body washes at VS, BBW, etc I been over whelmed by the smells if anyone knows what I mean. Well I just wanted to share a small look enjoy what I use daily in my shower. If anyone has questions or comments leave them below. Enjoy your friday and stay positive no matter what!

Yes...Monistat Chafing Powder Gel as a Facial Primer

This is something I have known about for almost two years. I had heard about but never really paid too much mind. I was just testing a few primers I had and wasn't really liking them as much as I thought I had anymore. I was having issues with dryness on my face so I changed my facial cleanser but my foundation was not going on as smooth. So I got on Google which by the way is my favorite search engine and Monistat popped up and I thought what the hell it's less then $7.00 bucks. Let me tell you that those were the best 7.00 bucks I have ever spent. I applied it and thought there is no way this is going to work and OMG my face was Matte the whole night.

Monistat is made from Dimethicone which has 3 great benefits:
  • It locks in your moisturizer under your makeup to keep your skin moisturized.
  • The dimethicone does not let the oils from your skin from breaking through to your foundation.
  •  Dimethicone stops oil from getting out and your foundation won't getting in. This means that your skin will not absorb your makeup, so your makeup looks great all day, even on hot summer days. 
This is truly a un-talked about product in the beauty community. I say give it a try if you like a Matte face. Everyone will have their own opinion, this is only my opinion and experience with this product.

Outfit: black dress from Forever21, Madden Girl pumps in velvet black, Micheal Kors wrislet, earrings are from Forever21 a very long time ago, gold bracelets and my Express tan jacket

Makeup: I went with simple makeup I didn't want to over do my face.
I used monistat chaffing powder gel as a primer...if you haven't it's AMAZING!!!, True Match foundation in W5,   Rimmel translucent matte powder, Physicians Formula bronzer in light/medium, on my cheeks I used elf studio bronzer blush combo & elf fushsa fusion blush , for my lips I used maybellinelipstick in a mauve color with mac posh it up on top, on my eyes I used Retrospeck by Mac and winged my eyes with Physicians Formula liquid eyeliner in black.

Sorry for the brief description it was a few days ago and I was trying to remember what I used. I hope you guys liked it and if so leave me your comments and questions below and I might consider doing more of face of the night or face of the day and maybe outfits.

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

Just A thought...




I am thinking of creating a YouTube channel but I am unsure if I it's the right thing for me. I would love your guys opinion and maybe your experiences about creating a beauty YouTube channel.

Thanks,

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.
