Influenster Covergirl Voxbox : Full Lash Bloom Mascara

Hey dolls, I am super excited because I received my very first Voxbox from Influenster !! Yay! The theme for this Voxbox is Go Bloom and it has 1 item : a mascara called Full Lash Bloom by Covergirl's Lashblast line.

What came inside the box 

 What did I like/ love about it ?

   I like that the mascara bottle comes with a cover and the mascara applicator is seperate. This allows for using the brush in a different mascara a of your choice if you want , also when u are cleaning your mascara bristle brush you can close the mascara bottle using the cap. I also LOVE the packaging. The pink and flowers found on the product stay true to the Go Bloom theme. The mascara applicator has many rows of bristles which helps to evenly distribute the product while elongating and thickening each lash. My eyelashes definately appeared fuller and longer without creating hard clumps that you tend to get  with mascaras.

Cons
I did not like that each time I put the applicator into the mascara bottle, A LOT of product was left on the tip of the mascara brush. This can lead to product wasting, however I simply wiped the excess back into the bottle.


Overall I am really happy with this mascara and as you guys know, a new mascara was on my holiday wishlist ! I definitely recommend this product. You should be able to find it in your local drugstore/ beauty supply store or at Covergirl.com, and it retails from $6.99 - $8.99 US.

I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.

Mini Beauty Haul

 Hello loves! So I decided to add some basic items to my makeup collection.

 I've heard so much about Urban Decay and for my first shadow palette I got Naked 2. This palette has many natural shades with shimmery and matte finishes and I thought it was perfect for makeup newbies like myself . I could definitely do a simple everyday look to a more glamorous night look with this palette. 

         

    Here are all the shades and their cute names.

 The Palette came with a two sided synthetic fiber brush , one side for blending and the other for applying.

 

The other product I got was a BB cream by Garnier Fructis in the shade deep. I find this perfect for everyday coverage especially if you attend High School or University like me and you want a very natural and modest look. Also it was refreshing to finally find a BB cream that matches my skin tone perfectly and who's "deep" wasn't too light. 

                

The only problem I find with this product is that it's not as moisturizing as I hoped it would be and primarily functions as a sunblock (SPF 20) so I just pair it with my moisturizer and I'm good to go. 

    

Every girl needs an eyelid primer! Before I got this one by Elf I used my MAC concealer .

 

 Honestly I'm still getting the hang of this but from what I can tell so far it's an ok primer. The consistency is clumpy and I definitely have to use the applicator to smooth it out on my lid. But it does help to show up the true colour of the eyeshadow and delays creasing .Finally , I was looking for a nude/ natural lip colour for darker skin tones and I found "Show Me" lipglass by MAC.

 I absolutely adore this product an will definitely repurchase when it's finished .

 That's it for the review on my recent beauty purchases.

Also Happy Fashion Week,

Adrienne Justine

Nails of the day

I like to think that my nails are like mood rings on each finger that express to the world how I'm feeling. Ha ! Ok that's a little dramatic but my mood does inspire my nails of the day (NOTD) and right now I'm feeling like a bold red Geranium. Geranium by Essie is what I'm wearing right now and for now it's my fave colour.

 The colors I've been wearing a lot this summer are :

I find the entire line to include high quality nail polishes which dry quickly and are easy to apply because of its fluidity .

New Collection Review!

 I'm so excited to do a review on an awesome organic beauty  line that I had the privilege of trying out. The collection is called Feel Good Formulas by Arran Arromatics located in Scotland.  It includes a wide range of beauty products with traditional/ organic ingredients. Here are a few products from the collection that I've been using .

These body washes/ moussant smell amazing and leave my skin really moisturized.

I use this as a facial soap even though it says for body . It suds a  little. You could definately use it for both. It isn't heavy and I love that it has Shea!

 

The collection is great. The packaging is unique and colourful, and the ingredients are organic, invigorating and just great for your skin and hair. Here's a link to their website on which you can order any of these products and much more without traveling all the way to Scotland even though that would be pretty cool :)  Arran Arromatics . A special thanks to Raahki Sunak who gave these great products to moi .
 xoxo
