Pur Minerals foundations for Labor Day weekend, Back to School and into the holiday season!

Hi ya Gorgeous,
I received some samples to review here on the blog from Pur Minerals. I am such a fan of their products for their commitment to healthy makeups!

Now, this weekend is the Labor Day weekend, and Arizona has been back in school for weeks but the rest of the nation is just starting their BTS!



These 3 types of foundations from Pur Minerals can take you through this LBD, into BTS and beyond into the very short, extremely slippery trail into the holidays! Click here to see how many days till Christmas...

So let's explore!

Back to School in Arizona-OOTD with Polyvore

Hello Gorgeous!
Oy-it's a week in to the Back to School season here in Arizona.
It's hot, humid, and there is plenty of monsoon rain to go around for wet feet!
That's why I paired a dress, over tailored shorts with boots. Fashion and function!

How about you? What's your back to school outfit? Mind you, I'm not back in school, my Mancub is, but I still like to have a fun outfit for #BTS!

REACH: A New Angle on Brushing for Back to School 2014

Hello Gorgeous!

 It's Back to School time in Arizona. I get it. Most of the country won't go back to school until September, but around here. It's in full swing.

 While stocking up on backpack, school clothes, supplies and you name it, I also think it's a good time to update and change your tooth brush.

Enter, REACH!

Back to School with Biore Pore Strips

Hi ya Gorgeous!

 It's BTS! Back to School time! I may not be going back to school but my Mancub is. As well are my nieces and nephews. In Arizona, school starts pretty early. It's also monsoon season meaning our normal very hot, very dry weather is suddenly very hot and very humid. Otherwise known as a blackhead and pimple incubator!



Enter, Biore Deep Cleaning Pore Strips.

Back to school with Laura Mercier Smooth Finish Flawless Fluide in Golden

Hello Gorgeous!
It's officially BTS-Back to School. In fact, first day of school is 48 hours away. Where did the summer go!
So the laid back, fun and easy summer schedule is over and it's back to the grind. *sigh*

As a busy mom, I'm thankful to have discovered a new foundation like product from Laura Mercier in the new Smooth Finish Flawless Fluide.

 Do you like my creepy horror lighting? I have some sci fi/horror projects coming up and as you  can see, I'm practicing the lighting with my new Laura Mercier foundation.

Now, onto a bit about the product.

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Face Oil Free Lotion Sunscreen, SPF 30 & The Walking Dead with some San Diego Comic Con thrown in for good measure

 Hello Gorgeous!
I am home from the San Diego Comic Con. Phew. It gets better, and bigger every year. Though I'm beginning to think, that it's on the verge of being too big to keep it's relevancy. What do you think?


 So enter the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Face Oil Free Lotion Sunscreen, spf 30. I used this primarily under my makeup while I toured the many attractions at #SDCC 2014. Now inside is a mad house.  But this is what I am talking about when I speak to all things "too big and too much".

 There is the vehicle from the upcoming movie "In to the Storm". Glad to see it. But what does this have to do with comics and comic characters?

 XBOX and Evolve were there with their creature. It's awesome. I can see where this has a cross audience appeal, but again, really?

 This was worth seeing because I owned this at one point and I agree, the game was bad. After you collected and ate all of the Reese's Pieces, there was no way to win the game. Your E.T. just kept eating and eating and eating!

 There is a documentary film coming out later this year detailing what happened at Atari and the why/who/how of 100,000 plus game cartridges being dumped into a landfill in Alamagordo New Mexico.

 This Atari E.T video game teaches us about the power of plastic to never, ever disintegrate!

 Okay, so now that my rant on the over reach of San Diego Comic Con is over, let me tie up with saying that it was great to be there, exciting and tiring all at the same time and thanks to Hawaiian Tropic for the sample of the sunscreen.

I used it, I was in and out of the buildings and sites, and I did not get burned. It was really hot and muggy during the Comic Con this year.



TheHawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Face Oil Free Lotion Sunscreen, SPF 30 dries down to  semi matte finish and wears well under liquid foundation and mineral foundation without peeling, making deely balls or causing the pigment of the foundation to break up.

I did not break out or find any black heads after using the product. So here's a bit more from the web about the proudct that you can find affordablly and easily at any mass retailer such as CVS, Walgreens, Walmart or Target for about $10.00.
