gillette venus embrace

Info:
  • The Venus Embrace razor has 5 blades.
  • Venus Embrace razor around $10.99
  • The Venus & Olay blade has moisturizing bars that help lock in moisture.
  • Any Venus refill fits any venus handle. 


Review:
So the Gillete Venus Embrace is one of the items i received in my Cosmo VoxBox 2012. I tried out the razor without the Olay refill a couple of times. i would say it still does give a close shave, but if you just use the razor i recommend using a shaving gel or cream. I also tried the razor with the Olay blade and i am in love! It gives such a close shave without even trying and it really does moisturize. Influenster also kindly added a coupon for a refill carriage of the Olay blades. I will defiantly be re-purchasing and using my coupon to save some bucks. Venus refills also fit any of the venus handles which makes it less of a hassle wondering if it will fit the handle or not.



I received this product for free thanks to Influenster.

Always Radiant Infinity

hey guys,

So i received the Always Infinity Radiant complimentary for review purposes by Influenster.com .
So personally i use to use Always but then i switched to Kotex. I felt like Kotex as alot softer and less noisy. I was really hesitate to try this but i really ended up like these pads.These are beyond soft,they feel like thin soft pillows. Only thing i didn't like was the plastic noisey packaging. The absorbency for a regular pad was great. They also feature different style packaging.





$3.99 - $5.49 (16 pads), $7.49 - $9.49 (32 pads)

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen

Hey Guys,

So i received this product complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster.com
First of All this stuff smells amazing! It smells like cocoa to me. Its a lotion with spf 30 uva/uvb protection. It retails for $8.99 for a 6 oz bottle. It claims to moisturize for 12 hours,i personally didn't wear it that long. It has little particles of glitter which is the only con i can find in this product. I really hope they come out with one without "glitter".

VEET wax strips


Hey guys I received the Veet Waxing Strips complimentary for testing and review purposes from Influenster.com

So These are the Veet Wax Strips. They are for legs and body. They are especially formulated to remove hair on legs, underarms and bikini area from closer to the root than shaving for smoothness that lasts up to 4 weeks. My personal experience wasn't that great because my hair is more course, i think it'd work better on finer hair. But For $9.99 you get 6 wipes and 20 full size double sided wax strips. They are very easy to use and have a sensitive formula.

Haul

HAUL
So i went shopping yesterday, and found 3 items that i really liked. Well actually i found more than 3 but wasn't able to pick up everything that i wanted.
Leila by NatureBreeze

So this was the first item that i picked up.They are a pair of Unif Hellraiser ($165) look a likes. Obviously they aren't exactly the same but they are close. These are coral colored loafer style shoe with spikes only on the front end. I got mine from a local boutique for $39.99, but as i was looking up the brand i found out they range from $19.99 - $39.99. I also learned they are available in 3 other colors (camel,black and green). I've never ordered from shoesilove but they offer all 4 colors and several sizes for $29.98. Or Ebay offers them in either coral or black for $19.99 + $4.99 s/h . As far as i'm concerned the shoes seem to be really good quality. The spikes seem to stay in place as i tried to see if they were really placed in the shoe. 


My next purchase was from Victoria's Secret. They sent me a coupon in the mail for a free Pink cotton panty, I choose to get the bikini style. They usually run for $9.50 but i got it for free.


So the last item,i was debating whether or not to get. In the end,i picked it up. The shirt is by the brand Daydreamer La, which is sold at urban outfitters on sale for $19.99. The shirt is made to look like a vintage brown shirt with two skeletons with swords on it. It's called the "batalla de la muerte" shirt which if i'm not mistaken translates to "Battle of the death/dead". 

check out the haul video i did :)

Back to School:must haves:accessories



So this is part of my little Back to School series. I don't think an outfit is complete without a couple of accessories. I know that my school doesn't allow us to wear sunglasses,but they do after school. And i'm pretty sure most schools aren't strict about wear jewelry. All these pieces are less than $10 and can all be found on Ebay.

Vintage Inspired Small Round Circle Sunglasses w/ Rivets

I am absolutely in love with these sunglasses. One they are round,which is my favorite new style of sunglasses. I love how the ends of the glasses almost make it seem like they have a "cat eye" effect.   These will help protect your eyes from the sun's harmful rays,with 100% UVA/UVB protection.

Available in 4 other colors
current price: $ 9.99

Vintage Inspired Classic Round Circle Sunglasses w/ Metal Bridge

These are actually my first pair of round sunglasses. I'm glad to say these glasses have made me a happy camper during the bright summer days. I got the ones with the silver metal bridge. They also stay on my nose and don't fall,so that's a plus. I got mine for a very affordable price.

Available in 2 other colors
current price: $6.99 - 9.99

Double Skull Head Cuff Bangle

So there is actually a similar cuff bangle selling on Asos for a much more higher price. It's not exactly the same but close. I've been looking at jewelry on different sites and finding similar or exact copies on Ebay. This bangle can easily be wore on its own or paired up with other gold bracelets. It's such a good layering piece in my opinion. And if you're being lazy or in a rush this simple bangle could add a little something to your outfit.

Available in 2 other colors (look on ebay)
current price: bid starts at ( $ 0.99 + $2.99 s/h )

Hamsa Hand Evil Eye Cord Bracelet

This piece is simply gorgeous. I find it to be versatile, it can be casual but also elegant. Since it is a cord bracelet it could give a dressy outfit a little bit of a laid back feel. As well as a casual outfit a little unf to make it classy with the crystals. The Hamsa hand is a really interesting piece that makes this bracelet stand out to me.

Current price: $ 4.99


So i hope you found these pieces interesting. Tell me different ways you would pair these items or if you own some too. I will be continuing this series with shirts,outwear,shoes etc. so look out for that in the upcoming weeks.

back to school:must haves:pants

So i'm the kinda girl that loves shopping online. And when i browse the internet i think of whether i will actually use the item of clothing and if it's versatile. Summer is going to come to and end and Fall is next. School will be starting soon and i'm already thinking of items of clothing that i should buy. These two pairs of pants are some must haves in my fashion book.

BDG Twill Grazer Mid-Rise Pant 

These kinda remind me of being in elementary and middle school, but the reason i'm attracted to them is because they are a neutral light pink/khaki color. These would go great with almost anything. A flowy pattern top,a basic t, or oversized sweater. Shopping for any bottoms whether it be jeans,pants,trousers, or maxi skirts is hard for me because i'm 5'1. But these appear to be cropped and have an inseam of 25.5" meaning they are greater for petite girls, like me!

These go on and off sale lately
current price $49
available in 3 other colors


These are perfect for Fall with the dark floral print. Some people might say they are a bit risk because the print is not subtle but i say bring it on. I'm in love with these pants, and since they have quite a few different shades you can easily pair them up with anything. Maybe a smaller patterned shirt on top,if you wanna be a risk taker? 

These are only available online at urban outfitters
current price $49


So i will be bring you a bit more of these type of fashion posts.On clothes I think would be lovely to have. Currently i am dead broke so i'm just browsing online to satisfy my fashion craving.

If you decided to buy any of these tell me how you pair them!

brown bag delicious deli

Currently my kitchen is being remodeled (no stove or oven) and well there isn't much in the refrigerator. So my kind loving mother who cares a lot about her children and was worried if me and my sister had eaten. She brought home some Brown Bag Deli, which is a sandwich deli. If you haven't tried their sandwiches you should! I absolutely love how they attach a brown paper bag to a clip board and you grab a pencil and bubble in what you want and your name. They have the best sandwiches but they are kinda pricey.
