Book Club & Lippies with The Apostolic Woman & Maybelline Lip Stay

Hi ya Gorgeous! 

Welcome to our book club and lippie review! These are two of my most favorite things! Books and lipstick! Coffee and wine! Huzzah! 

Today I'm sharing the book The Apostolic Woman written by Linda Heidler and Chuck Pierce. Love this short yet powerful book! Available on Amazon https://amzn.to/3dPJa6Z 


 

The lippie is THE lipstick and lip look for Fall 2022 - the lip vinyl. I tested a red shade in the Maybelline Superstay Lip Vinyl and liked it so much I bought it in a nude tone. I like the wear, the feel, the color lasting on my lips and bit of shine in this long wearing lippie!

Available on Amazon https://amzn.to/3dPJa6Z and in mass markets. I'm such a fan of both of these - I hope you get them and enjoy too! Remember, when would NOW be a great time to get your Christmas shopping done! Thanks for watching - please subscribe and share!

Netflix Stranger Things x Merci Handy | Christmas Gifts!

Hi ya Gorgeous! 

Thank you for tuning in today! I have a fun whimsy product review for you featuring Merci Handy and the Netflix Stranger Things show. 


 

Before I continue - have you subscribed yet? Please do and share if you haven't already! Now, there are 2 products - the Volume 1 and Volume 2 in packaging that resembles an old school VHS tape. 


 

The scents are a mix of spicy, woody, amber glow up in Volume 2 and Volume 1 in my opinion is a more fresh and floral scent. These are super fun and affordable Christmas gifts for the Netflix Stranger Things and beauty lover fans in your life! These links take you to the product website for Merci Handy!

Mean Girls X Profusion lip kits - Christmas stocking stuffer perfection

Hi ya Gorgeous!
On Wednesdays, we wear pink! I was recently in Walmart and saw these lip kits were in a nearly empty, pushed off to the side section of the health and beauty aisle.
 

 

I picked up a couple for gifts and have opened the Regina George for testing in the video.
Super fun and I'm such a fan of the movie, "so fetch"! These sets are $5.98 and come with one long wearing lip creme and one Lancome style juicy tube shimmery gloss. These did not have a strong scent and wore well. When I say well, I mean not super long yet not super short. I had mine on for a few hours and then ate something and after that noticed the wear.



Thank you for watching and if you could, would you please subscribe and share! Every little bit helps!

What's on your Christmas wish list?

L'Oreal Age Perfect Midnight Serum - Sample - First Impression

 Hi ya Gorgeous!

Well, well, well, looky here at this distinguished sample received via an Instagram ad.
That's truth.

I was scrolling through Insta and saw an ad for the new L'Oreal Age Perfect Midnight Serum and yes, I like anti-aging skincare. So, here goes. Click. It took about a week to arrive.
The video goes into my experience and opinion on first impression.



This Amazon affiliate link https://amzn.to/3i31Csr  - takes you to the Amazon L'Oreal shop page so you can get some stuff too! Thank you for clicking and shopping - it gives me a penny!

NOTE to you - scammers are already trying to sell this free sample on eBay. You do not have to buy a sample. This wee bottle, with maybe 3 applications in it, is free to you.

I saw reviews on Walmart.com where this sells for $43.99 - but - please note, all of the 5 star reviews are from women who received a free sample through Influenster.com  ...just a heads up on possible contamination on the ol' 5 star review.

Here is details from the L'Oreal website for Age Perfect Midnight Serum:
REVEAL MILLIONS OF NEW CELLS, VISIBLY YOUNGER SKIN. Age Perfect Cell Renewal Midnight Serum sets a new standard for luxury serums. In fact, WOMEN PREFER IT OVER THE #1 LUXURY NIGHT SERUM*. Formulated with an exclusive Antioxidant Recovery Complex, this powerhouse anti-aging serum works at night when skin reaches its peak of cell renewal. Millions of new cells are revealed for visibly smoother, more radiant and younger skin. EFFECTIVE FOR ALL SKIN TYPES & TONES, it is made without parabens or mineral oil, and is allergy tested - suitable for even sensitive skin.

WHAT IS AN ANTIOXIDANT RECOVERY COMPLEX? Our exclusive Antioxidant Recovery Complex helps boost skin's renewal overnight by combining a powerful, L'Oréal patented antioxidant—derived from bitter orange—and Vitamin E to help reinforce skin's barrier. This breakthrough serum replenishes skin’s antioxidant levels at night when it is most receptive to repair. Our formula also contains Hyaluronic Acid—a powerful hydrating ingredient that helps lock in moisture.

SMOOTH WRINKLES, FIRMER, MORE RADIANT SKIN: After 1 use, skin is refreshed and feels softer, smoother. In 1 week, skin appears brighter, more luminous and younger. Over time, wrinkles are smoothed, skin looks firmer and more radiant. Effective for all skin tones.

INDULGENT, LUXURIOUS FORMULA: Each drop of this lightweight serum provides intense hydration while leaving skin luxuriously soft to the touch. It absorbs quickly with a non-greasy, non-sticky finish and won't clog pores.


 Final thoughts - while I was on Amazon looking for reviews of the L'Oreal Age Perfect Midnight Serum, I came across this - the

L'oreal Paris Age Perfect Radiant Serum Foundation with SPF 50 ...bought it...will let you know how it goes!

Il Makiage - First Impression with Lets Make Food From Food

 


 
HI ya Gorgeous! 
 
Thank you for watching today! First things first, let me introduce you to a fellow YouTuber and makeup lover - Michelle, of Let's Make Food From Food! 
 
Her latest video is here: https://youtu.be/WFi5i7_b94s I think you will learn something and enjoy the videos - so please check her out! This video has me testing HER bottle of Il Makiage! 
 

 
 
We are on holiday in Las Vegas for my birthday and when I saw she had the foundation, I had to try it. I have seen SO many Instagram videos and some Youtube video ads for this product, and I definitely do not believe the hype. So, this video has me "testing" it for a first time, on camera. 
 

 
Enjoy! 
 
Now - if this product doesn't work out for me - I am going to try this NYX foundation from Amazon: https://amzn.to/3v0yWEk 
 
*affiliate link 
 
Thank you for watching - please like and subscribe!
 
p.s.  This photo is after 8 hours of wear with no touch ups of the Il Makiage woke up like this foundation ...it is sort of still there? I'm seriously considering getting it ...how about you?

Tenth Street Hats - Country Western Style for Summer Fashion - a first impression

 

Hi ya Gorgeous,

Summer is here and it's time to up your sun care for your skin care! How about adding a hat? 

Meet Tenth Street.


I received this hat as a sample to review and blog about. I was offered the option to select a hat of my choice to review. I wanted a beautiful, dark wool cloche hat that would go perfect with my short summer hair and upcoming travel.

What I got was this left over from Toby Keith's performance in 1993 western hat. It's too small for my big head. There is a $10 restocking fee to return the hat. 


 Tenth Street sells the hats and the maker is Scala. There is a sizing chart for how to find your size here,

https://blog.tenthstreethats.com/how-to-measure-hat-size

I suspect that I pulled the measuring tape to tight around my head and that's why the size is too small. I bet with some sweat and wear, the fit would loosen up and feel better.

This western hat has a synthetic feeling straw to it and the hat band is faux leather and turquoise plastic. If you are going to a summer concert or outdoor festival, this could be a good option for you?

Back to the bit about sun care and skin care. A physical barrier to the sun for your skin is a great way to protect yourself and adding a hat to your outdoor time is a perfect way to layer up protection. First apply the sunscreen, then apply a hat to block your face from damaging UVA and UVB rays. 

 

If you haven't added a hat to your summer skincare - consider it!

Farmasi Make Up Vfx Pro Camera Ready Foundation - First Impression

 

Hi ya Gorgeous!
How ya doin'! Thank you for watching today as I unbox, apply, and review this inexpensive - "not
cheap" liquid foundation. Meet, Farmasi. I have received a gifted sample of their matte lipgloss from a friend who was at the time selling the brand. She has since stopped, and I bought my Farmasi from Amazon.

This affiliate link here can take you to the page and see the many shades they have available:
https://amzn.to/3estP8z

I find it a pleasant surprise at how many shades they have available and are cruelty free. Here is a quote directly from their website:  "FARMASİ dedicated its vision to excellence both in quality and operation. Last but not least, these products have provided employment for more than 3 million consultants from all around the world, who have been selling Farmasi, Dr. C. Tuna, Mr. Wipes and Nutriplus brands in domestic and foreign markets.".

So I like the dedication to clean beauty. Now, about my experience with the product... 


 


 

Oy! I have been searching for a foundation, for my dry skin - and this is nice, but I'm still looking. Which brings me to, Il Makiage.


More on that later as I am considering doing their free 2 week trial and then possibly keeping it? The $44 plus tax and shipping is a steep upgrade from what I want to be spending.


So - enjoy the video! Please let me know in the comments if you have any experience with the Farmasi Make Up VFX Pro Camera Ready Foundation or Il Makiage.




Or - just a recommendation is good too!


Maybelline New York Fit Me Dewy + Smooth Foundation,125 Nude Beige
https://amzn.to/3tR1DTl


*this is the other foundation that I bought back in February, and though it has 12,000+ positive ratings I just don't love it, or like it enough to keep using or buy again. You may think otherwise! Tried it? Let me know your thoughts!

7th Heaven Super Food Blueberry Mud Mask review


Hi ya Gorgeous!
Sing it with me! "I'm leaving on a jet plan, don't know when I'll be back again..." ...actually, I am back. Oh what a wonderful trip it was to Texas. I knew the stress of travel and over packed schedule in Dallas would have my skin showing all of it, so I packed this wee mud mask made of blueberries in my bag.

I know how drying the plane can be and part of my wanted to put it on in the airplane bathroom. I did not. I chose to save it for after the longest day and before photos the next day. 

This mask is amazing. The smell is soft and blueberry'ish. The consistency of the mask is creamy though it dries down tight and quickly. I would say mine was done in about 20 minutes? I really enjoyed it and it made me "pause" for a moment, and rest in a busy schedule. After rinsing and drying my skin, it looked brighter, refreshed and radiant. Thanks blueberries and 7th Heaven! 




MakeupUniversity has long been a fan of the 7th Heaven line of skincare for it's commitment to sustainable sourcing of ingredients, natural approach to skincare and affordability! These lil' mask packs hover in the $1-2 range and are widely available at mass retailers like Walmart.

Thin enough to fit in your purse and sealed tight so it won't explode in a suit case during flight. It really helped and was a treat!

Mother's Day is coming up! My birthday in May for an at home spa treatment! - Virtual graduations and being camera ready! Then  on in to summer where hot days can make skin get oily and need a clay mask. So, when would now be a good time to try 7th Heaven?

This Amazon affiliate link will take you some 7th Heaven blueberry masks!

Throwback Thursday- Besame Cosmetics First Impression

Hi ya Gorgeous! 
 
It's Thursday and today I have a "throwback" video for you. Though before I get in to that, I want to share that I find it hard to believe that it's coming up on a year of the beginning of the end of the world as we, or I, know it. 
 
 
This time, last year, life was a form of normal with school for my family and work for me. Trips were planned and in person convention emcee work was booked and then, everything changed. Hence the Patrick photo. Many days, I feel like I look like the expression on his face! 

After a year at home my body looks like Patrick as well. I know that some chose to seriously double down on fitness. Not me. I seriously doubled down on boxed wine, binge watching shows and lamenting fireside from the couch. Ce` la vie. So goes life. Now, let's talk Besame Cosmetics and the very beautiful Mary Poppins shade of red!
 
This was actually made a few weeks ago as I had just finished interviewing Gabriela at the flagship store for Besame Cosmetics in Burbank. Oh how I love this color and the history behind it! 
 
I also really like the wear and feel of the lipstick. You can get your Besame Cosmetics online via Amazon with your Prime account! https://amzn.to/30a31Dw

FACTORFIVE Skincare - Human Stem Cell Skincare

Hi ya Gorgeous!


Happy December and welcome to a month of celebrating! I choose to celebrate and make positive memories in spite of all the negative news. 

Hanukkah? Celebrating!

Festivus?  Celebrating!

Christmas? Celebrating! 

 


My family is not doing the amount of traveling that we would normally do - but, that doesn't mean we are not getting together for traditions and merry making. Enter my samples of FACTORFIVE skincare. I recently received a sample of the mini travel trio which consisted of an eye creme, serum and cream.

FACTORFIVE website says this about their company and culture: 

" At its core, FACTORFIVE humanizes aging. Backed by years of scientific research, our award-winning skincare company seeks to redefine how we, as a society, look at aging. Powered by ethically derived human stem cells, FACTORFIVE works harmoniously with your own skin to replenish growth factors that naturally deplete as we age. Rather than hype, FACTORFIVE relies on innovation." . 


The mini serum is $70, mini cream is $65 and mini eyelash/eyebrow cream is $55.

Out of my 3 samples, 2 of them the pump didn't work on the eye cream and face cream. I removed the pump system and scooped some out with a cotton swab. Both creams are light weight, absorbed quickly into the skin and have a sweet light floral fragrance. The FACTORFIVE  website says that 4 weeks are needed of continued use to see growth and re-growth in the eyebrows and eyelashes which contain stem cells and redensyl. 

Now I am a big fan of serums and love a good face, neck and back of hand serum!  I really enjoyed the serum and the pump worked, so it was easy to use and get a metered dosage.  I personally can use too much product. The formulation is light, and has a nice slip on the skin which after absorbing had a hint of firming to the skin. 

The price point is what keeps me from pursuing the full size bottles of the serum and eyebrow cream - which, I seriously need help growing in my eyebrows! 

The little bit I tried of FACTORFIVE, I liked. Even though, the use of human stem cells has me thinking of the 1970's Charlton Heston film Soylent Green or the Los Angeles eatery The Hollydale.
