New Years/Ritzy Mani

Hello my MJF followers/friends,
I have another mani today to show you. Its a New Years themed mani.

With flash

no flash inside lighting
Products I used:
Revlon ColorStay Base Coat 
Revlon Ritzy
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat

This year I did something easy which I used one nail polish. I used Ritzy by Revlon which is like two polishes in one. Its a black jelly polish with black glitter and silver large hex glitter which was so pretty and I only need 3 coats. The only thing it chips because the large hex glitter gets clumpy but it did last for a week which is good for any polish. I still really like this polish because its so pretty.

I hope everyone had a nice New Years and great new year in 2016.

Until next time,
Mel

I was very impressed with this formula in this collection most of the were 3 coater but one which is Fairy Forest which was a 2 coater and is the darkest shade in the collection. I want to show you how pretty the polishes by there selves before I put Stella Grace on top.

Products I used:
Revlon ColorStay Base Coat 
Pure Ice Prince Charming- 3coats
Pure Ice Tales Untold- 3 coats
Pure Ice Fairytale Forest- 2 Coats 
Pure Ice Stella Grace- 2 coats
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat 

I really love this Fairytale Forest collection but some of the colors are too light for me. I wish they had a green in this collection because when I think forest I think green. The only color I was not my favorite is Tales Untold because it too light for my skin tone but if I put a darker glitters on top would be alright. If you can still find this collection at Walmart you should pick a few up because they are really pretty and nice nail polishes for only $1.97 each.

Until next time,

Precious Jewel and Faraway Land Mani

Hello my MJF followers/friends,
I have a mani to show you which I meant to post awhile ago but now finally posting, oops.  I used two of the Pure Ice polishes from the Fairytale Forest.

With flash

No flash outside lighting
Products I used:
Revlon ColorStay Base Coat 
Pure Ice Limited Edition Precious Jewel and Faraway Land 
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat

When I saw this collection the color that grabbed me was Precious Jewel and had to put on my nails and I decided to add Faraway Land to add more glitter of course. I really love both of these polishes. I think Faraway Land would be even better with a dark base. I love Pure Ice and you need to try there polishes which are really good price.

Until next time,
Mel

Influenster Jingle VoxBox

Hello my MJF follower/friends,
I'm here to show you another voxbox from Influenster which finally got here today. So I decided to post it before I forget or it gets pushed to the bottom of other things I need to post.
This time I received the Jingle VoxBox which I received these items from Influenster that are complimentary for testing purposes.
 So lets get into what I got in this VoxBox.

Jingle VoxBox

Inside Jingle VoxBox


The first thing on card that received was this 1oz Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream. 

Card: Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream is a rich, quickly absorbing, non-greasy cream that provides long-lasting relief for even severely dry skin. This unique formula attracts water to skin and helps prevent moisture loss. $8.99-$15.99

My thoughts: I really like it and it pretty much does what the card says. It has a light smell like almonds which is in the ingredients and smells pretty good.


The second thing I got is three two packs of Biscoff Cookies.

Card: Since 1932 Lotus Biscoff speculoos have been Europe's favorite cookie with coffee. Delectably crunchy with a unique taste and flavor, Biscoff is perfect for taking the timeout that you deserve. 250g $2.99

My thoughts: I do enjoy these cookies but I love the other version with chocolate on the bottom so good.


The next thing on the card that I received was this coupon for some Ore-Ida Tater Tots.
 Card: Ore-Ida, the inventor of the one-and-only Tater Tot, is looking for you to be a part of the next big Tater craze. Show us your creativity and be a part of the #Oreidatotcho movement! $3.99

My thoughts: I love tater tots and can't wait to get a bag to try.


Then I got an Hallmark Itty-Bittys which you can see I got Spider man.

Card:Hallmark itty bittys give them a little something to love. New characters in time for the holiday season include Star Wars, Barbie, DC Comics, Inside Out, Rainbow Brite and many more. Collect them all. These make great stocking stuffers! Available at Hallmark Gold Crown stores and Hallmark.com. Starting at $6.95

My thoughts: I was hoping to get Olaf but nope :0( I guess I'll have just buy him. They are so cute.


The fifth thing I got was NYC City Proof 24Hr Waterproof Eyeliner in Dark Brown.

Card: City Proof 24HR eyeliner is a waterproof pencil that is perfect for your on-the-go lifestyle. Just glide on for long lasting 24HR color!

My thoughts: It pretty nice in that its pigmented and soft/ creamy in texture which gilds on nicely. I don't think it waterproof though because when I rubbed off the swatch above it smeared and came off. It might be nice for a base or on lower lash line. I will be trying it out of course.


The next thing I got was some Kiss True Volume Lashes.

Card: Made with 100% natural hair, KISS True Volume Lashes blend beautifully with your own lashes. The Tapered End Technology creates natural -looking ends that resemble real lashes but give eyes that perfect "vavoom" without looking too made-up. $3.99

My thoughts: I'm really excited to try these lashes because I've been wanting to try wearing fake eyelashes but never do because my eyes are so sensitive.



They also gave me some KISS Strip Lash Adhesive with aloe.

Card: Enjoy wearing false lashes without the irritation! The KISS Aloe Vera Strip Lash Adhesive is a safe and long lasting glue with refreshing scent of aloe. $3.99

My thoughts: I was so happy they included the glue to go with the fake lashes and it hypoallergenic too for my sensitive eyes.


The last thing I got in the voxbox is Pure Ice nail polish.

Card: Pure Ice is for the girl whose got passion for hottest nail colors and trends. Offering an array of nail polish colors and effects, from hight-pigment creams to shimmering iridescent pearls and multidimensional single coat glitters, our shoppers can always play with colors!

My thoughts: If you been here awhile you know I love the Pure Ice brand of nail polish and have many in my collection. I happy that I got one in this box and I don't have this color which nice. Its nice silver named Silver Star but I which I got a different color because I have many silver polishes like this one. But I'm still happy to have it in my collection and can't wait to wear it.

I was so excited to get this Jingle VoxBox and still excited to try all of these new products.

Christmas/Holiday Mani #3: Green Tease and Holiday Rebel

Hello my MJF followers,
I have another Christmas/Holiday themed mani to show you.  I've been wanting to do a gingerbread man mani which I ran out of time last year so I finally did one as you can see.

with flash

no flash outside lighting

Products I used:
Revlon ColorStay Base Coat
Wet N Wild Green Tease
Sinful Colors Holiday Rebel
Orly Prince Charming
L.a Colors Art Deco White
Milani Quick Shine Top Coat

As you can see I decided to use a light green color as a base so that the gingerbread man would stand out. So I used Green Tease which a pretty pastel cream green. Also I had to add some glitter because you know everything better with glitter. So I used my favorite Christmas glitter from sinful color called Holiday Rebel. I'm really happy how this mani came out. 

I hope everyone have a Happy Holiday Season.

 If  you want to see my past Holiday manicures just got to search bar on web page and use "Christmas" and they should pop up.

Until next time,
Mel

Second Eye Look: Disney Cinderella Ready for the Ball Beauty Book

Hello my MJF followers,
Here is the second eye look using the Disney Cinderella Ready for the ball beauty book.


Products I used:
E.l.f eyelid primer sheer
Nyx Jumbo eye pencil milk
Royalty- center eyelid
Glass Slipper-crease
Princess- inner and outer eyelid
Tweet-brow bone
Miracle- inner corner
Jordana Cateye Liner Black
Urban Decay Perversion Mascara Black

In this eye look I wanted to use the other eyeshadow colors that I did not use in the last eye look. So it came out as a pretty blue eye look. The only thing is that I wish they put a darker blue because glass slipper and princess are really close in tone as you can see. Other than that I really like how it came out.

Until next time,
Mel
