I got this beautiful-looking set of Eyeliners for Christmas and was immediately intrigued. The pencils themselves look sophisticated with their sleek-black exteriors, and their colorful tips let you know which color they are on the inside without you having to pull off the cap.  These eyeliners come from a brand named Italia and they are extremely inexpensive. This 8-piece set costs $6.25 at Amazon. Judging from what I see online of what products this brand has to offer, it seems to be in the same category as companies like, BH Cosmetics, where they buy makeup in bulk from a wholesaler and slab on their company name, hence why everything from companies like these all have the same look and same price points.  I have no problem with companies like these. They are actually quite nice when you are starting out and on a budget. You can really get a lot with a small amount of allowance and there are some great products available, if you are willing to find them. The d...

This is my first time trying out these Wet n Wild chubby stick stains, but they have been out for quite a while now, however, there are six new shades that Wet n Wild has released this year, and should be on displays in both CVS and Walgreens, but today I am reviewing what I think about them and all that fun stuff. 

I first made one of these paper firecracker wall decorations last year but didn't film it. I did, however, filmed another DIY video for Chinese New Year called, " Lucky Liquid Gold ", which makes great gifts for family. Today's DIY is also great to give as a gift, as well as, a great decorative piece for you home. Hang it up amongst your other Chinese Talismans or scrolls, and the outcome is beautiful!

If I can describe in three words this cream, glossy eye shine quad from Milani's Fierce Foil line, they would be: Beautiful. Sparkly. Intense.  According to Milani , these are not eyeshadows. They are, and I quote  " extraordinary eye-enhancing, game-changing gloss can be swept on bare lids." From experience, they can be used as an all-over lid color, over eyeshadow for that some extra sparkle, and as an eyeliner or inner-corner highlight. These eye shines can be very versatile. 

I have been trying out L'oreal's Advanced HairCare products of late, and their Triple Resist with Arginine Shampoo & Conditioner ($4.99) were the first products I tried from them. What sparked my interest in picking this duo up was the product's claim of reducing hair fall-out by 64%! Now I don't think I loose more hair than the average person, but I do feel like I shed like a Pembroke Welsh Corgi (my favorite dog) from time to time. So I thought this would help me with some of my breakage.  On the bottle is states that it has an ingredient called Arginine, that makes this Shampoo & Conditioner unique.  After some googling and good-old Wiki , I found out that Arginine is actually an amino acid that the body naturally produces. It helps in cell division, the healing process in our bodies, and the releasing of hormones. Sounds good.  Of course, the Arginine in the shampoo and conditioner is synthetically made, and according to L'oreal , the Argi...

To be completely honest, Milani never caught my attention enough to want to go all out on a Milani shopping spree. Yes, I have bought an eyeliner or a lipstick here and there, but nothing was so amazing that had me running to the Milani display every time I enter a drugstore.  This year, 2015, Milani came out with an incredible array of new products, that might just change how I feel for this brand. First of all, everything is packaged to perfection. Everything looks sleek in its gold-plated packaging and the colors of the products themselves look equally amazing, but that was not the only thing that impressed me. There are quite a few gems in these new products that has me wanting more from Milani Cosmetics. 

What is one of the most common gifts that people give to their significant other or someone that they care about on Valentine's Day, that is not chocolate? The answer is Flowers!  Flowers are sweet and lovely but temporary. So I decided to create a flower that will not only last longer than a bouquet of Roses, but will also symbolize the "Growth of Love" within a relationship.
