Review: Mascara Warmer



 For decades, hairstylists have been using Godefroy to effectively cover the most resistant gray hair on brows, beards, mustaches and side burns.  From this foundation we have been able to deliver exceptional products with proven results to salons and spas.


 Christina's Voice:
The Mascara Warmer from Godefroy was the first actual masvara warmer i have ever seen or heard about. I always have a lighter in my bag for my eye liner, because it goes on smooth when it's warm, but i never thought about my mascara. The warmer eliminates clumping on lashes for easy application. Which also helps create a professional curl on lashes when applied. I love that it warms up quickly because im not the type of girl to take forever trying to apply my face. This device works with all brands of mascara. This product will be great gift for yourself of friend/family.

Review: L'oreal Paris " Youth Cream"




 L’OrĂ©al Paris is a truly global beauty brand. Our signature phrase, “Because I’m Worth It”, is meant to inspire each and every woman to embrace her own unique beauty and reinforce her sense of self-worth.


 Christina's voice:
L'Oreal Paris has come out with t his Serum Corrector daily treatment called Youth Code. This product is to be used daily to help fade away dark spots and also illuminating the skin all in one. This product comes out white in a pump like bottle. It is fast absorbing and light-infusing serum gave my skin an instantly luminous appearance. I had to try this product out for 10 days just to see if it works or not before posting this review. I could tell that my skin looked a lot healthier just after the first 5 days. Underneath my eyes with no make up on was starting to fade away, like magic. This product would be great if you have uneven skin tone as well rather it be from post acne marks or sunspots, this product seem to really work when being used daily like instructed. After 12 weeks you should see dramatic results.

Review: Facial Cleanser, mudmask, and skin toner from Premier



 The Dead Sea Premier Cosmetics Laboratories was established in 1990 in Israel and is part of Hadan Group, which has been specializing in cosmetics since 1979.





 Christina's Voice:
YO YO YO =)
Premier by dead sea Mud, SEAWEED and HONEY MASK is for anti-wrinkle force for normal to oily skin. First thing i noticed was the beautiful container it came in. The unique formula based on dead sea mineral mud,seaweed,collagen and honey to replenish the skin and increase its elasticity, making fine lines less apparent while simultaneously guarding against the formation of new wrinkles. I used this product twice, the smell alone had me hooked, but i could really feel a difference with this product on and off. Had my skin oh so soft. Your suppose to use this product at least 2-3 times a week. let it stay on for 10-15 minutes and rinse. the only thing i noticed with this product is it doesn't on muddy like most mud mask. ( like on the way it dries) easy to rinse as well.





Christina's Voice:
Premier Skin toner comes in a pump like bottle. This product makes your skin feel very purified  while toning and whitening your skin while helping maintain the skins natural balace with firming the pores on the skin. You just pump it on a cotton swab and dab around the face and let dry.


Retail value $45.00 





Christina's Voice:
The luxury dead sea mineral facial cleanser with micro grains. First thing i noticed was the wonder smell, kinda smelled like the mask that i mentioned above. This works great for the end of the day when im removing my  make up and i can feel the grains against my skin, and once rinsed off leaves my skin so smooth. 


Retail value $17.99


 I received one or more of the product mentioned above free of charge for the purpose of this review. Thank you.

Review: Pro Extensions 100% human hair



 Pro Extensions is a company that provides easy and affordable clip in 100% human hair for women to quickly solve their everyday issues involving hair length and hair styles.





 Christina's voice:
Pro Extensions is 100% human hair, clip-in hair extensions. I think everyone woman should have some in there bathroom, rather it be to add length to hair or some type of highlight. The ones in the picture are 20" inches long and the color is dark brown, just like my own hair. I was surprised on how good it smelled and the texture was actually softer than my own hair. They were very easily put in, they just clip right on to the hair. You put hair your hair up and half down, the part in the middle is where you would clip the extension. You can curl, or flat iron the extensions because its real hair. The set i got had 12 pieces covering 39inches. I have never had long hair, because my hair grows so slow.. so it was very nice to have hair that almost touched my butt.My only question is, how would you store these? Where do you put them.. i have an empty drawer in bathroom i just put them there, but if there is something special to put these in i would like to know.

Review: Smokey eye kit from Mally





Makeup artist Mally Roncal’s love affair with all things glam started at an early age. As a young girl growing up in upstate New York, Mally began experimenting with makeup on her mother, an incredible beauty who was and continues to be her biggest inspiration. From that early age, Mally’s parents instilled in her the philosophy that the things that make us different are the qualities that make us beautiful—a mantra that has guided Mally in her every pursuit.  Read more








Christina's voice:
I love the Smokey eye kit from Mally. it comes with a black pencil liner for your eyes. and then the smokey eye shadows. This kit includes it all the first little sucker would be your foundation/base. then your brow lighter pinkish color lip color and then the last one would be your smokey part that goes in the crease of your eyes. only thing i wish it carried was a brush to go with it. The mirror is handy as well because you can take it on the go and put your makeup on.

Remington Wet2Straight


before ( hair damp)


Christina’s voice:
after ( dried see the ends of hair)
           Remington Wet 2 Waves and Wet 2 Straight Flat Irons are a great products for your hair. Why damage your hair more by blow drying, then straightening? When you can do it all in one with Remington wet 2 straight flat iron. I love how it conditions your wet hair and gives you that smooth finish. The plates that get hot actually condition your hair. Heats up to 425 degrees and the ceramic titanium plates do a great job. It has these little vents where your hair steams up when applied to, that what keeps the flat iron from damaging your hair. I would not do it while its soaking wet, I would do it while it is damp like I did. ( I have included a video and before and after pictures for you).

Soy is a protein known for nourishing and moisturizing skin and hair. Next generation ceramics plates on this flat iron are infused with special soy hydra conditioners creating healthy, skiny hair. These conditioners last the life of the flat iron leaving no oily residue. 

How does it work?: Traditional styling methods of blowdrying then straightening can cause stress and overheating . Leaving hair damaged and brittle. Unique steam vents found on top of this flat iron safely removes water from damp hair, allowing you to dry and style at the same time! This creates a longer fasting beautiful finish.
