Product review TRUE skin cream body butter!

Friday, April 12th, 2013

Hello Loves!

Today I am doing a product review of an awesome product I have been using called TRUE Skin Cream. The cream is a body butter  with a  texture that is lux and light weight. My skin is more hydrated  and silky than I’ve experienced in a long time and I am loving how I feel. When I first tried it I was a bit skeptical only because my skin is very dry, I wash my hands a lot and I must be honest I’m bad at moisturizing after showers (don’t judge me).

TRUE skin cream is  pure all natural skin cream containing Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Avocado Oil, Olive Oil, Jojoba and Coconut Oil. It is packed with all the best ingredients that skin needs to look and feel smooth and moisturized. The product absorbs really well into the skin, not leaving a oily look but more of a glow or sheen look that I love.

TRUE skin cream  is sold at Health Food Stores in the Tampa Bay area and  you can order it direct thru the companies Facebook page.

Lipstick Trends & Styles That are in For Spring 2013

Monday, March 11th, 2013


Do you want to know what lipstick trends and styles are in for spring this year? No need to search around, we’ve done all of the research for you, and come up with a list of the top three that everyone in high fashion is going to be trending.

 

1. Matte Lips

 

Matte Lips are going to be one of the biggest styles trending this Spring. Why? It’s more natural, and makes your lips look fabulous. Just make sure that before you put on some of your favorite matte lip colors that you have dry, healthy lips. Moisturize and exfoliate those lips, ladies! The awesome thing about this style is that you can choose just about any color to ‘go matte’ with. Pick your favorite color and go for it! Here are some suggestions:

Red Matte: Revlon Matte Lipstick, Really Red 006

Pink Matte: Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lip Color in Pink Lily

              Brown Matte: VIP Cosmetics Earth Matte Lipstick

 

 

2. Hot Pink Lipsticks

 

Hot Pink lipsticks are youthful, daring, and yes, they are SO in this spring. You can pair hot pink lips with almost any overall makeup style or outfit, and they work well in both formal and casual situations. The best way to wear hot pink lips, however, is as part of a mostly natural look. It’s a look that’s not quite natural, but, as the name suggests, almost. To pull it off, use a minimal amount of foundation, a hint of blush, and your favorite hot pink lipstick. Don’t have a favorite yet? Here are ours to help you choose:

Bobbi Brown Neon Pink

YSL Rouge Pur Couture

    Kat Von D Everlasting Love Liquid Lipstick in Backstage Bambi, Vivid Hot Pink

 

3. Red Lipsticks

 

Red Lipsticks are always in, so it’s no surprise they made our Spring 2013 list. Red Lips are seductive, fabulous, and the perfect color for a night out on the town. It just goes to show you that sometimes the most classic trends are the best choices. Do you have a favorite red lipstick or exact shade? If you don’t no worries, we’ve got some favorites to share.

  Lipstick Queen Sinner in Red

Chanel Rouge Allure in Audace

NARS Matte Velvet Pencil in Cruella

 

What do you think of the in styles for Spring 2013? Got a very matte, hot pink, or red lipstick of your own? Share it with us in the comments below! We can’t wait to hear what you have to say!
