Review! Freeman Cucumber Peel

So this is a bit of a downer because I LOVE Cucumber (except to eat) but this just made me dizzy and I broke out a little bit so I'm not sure what happened but it wasn't great, or even good. 
It smelled entirely of alcohol, which is what made me dizzy and irritable. 
I had wanted to give this as a gift to my aunt but now I don't cause of how much I disliked it. It was really just the smell since i can't say for sure it made me break out, so fix the alcohol smell in the formula and I'd probably recommend it, but until then....adieu. 

Next a tut for total realsies!

Pink Wednesday #2 Neon!


My second Pink Wednesday and Neons are coming in to fashion again so I did my Sinful colors Pink, which is very neon-ific. I need multiple colors so i did a black french tip. I had used Pumpkin glow in the dark pink over it from Halloween but it doesn't glow :( I'm hoping its just old and not a rip off.

I used Gelous Base Coat, Sinful Colors Pink, Pumpkin Glow in the Dark Pink , Sinful Colors Black on Black and Sally Hansen Strengthening Top Coat. 

Yes two weeks in a row! I'm getting better at my blogging or maybe just getting less lazy about it.

These are a few of my favorite things (on my face)

*insert inappropriate jokes*
Alright got that out of my system so on to my favorite and will forever use facial cleansing items.
All Clinique.


Mild Liquid Face Wash, I love this stuff, never drys out my skin helps it feel soft and lasts forever, I usually have to buy it once a year.
You don't need very much because it lathers really well, i use about 2 pumps.







Mild Clarifying Lotion, doesn't really burn or make my skin react harshly to it, so I prefer this over astringents. it gets used a bit faster with it being an open mouth to a cotton pad usually so it takes about 3-6 months before I have to replace it, but I actually haven't yet and need to.
:I






The dramatically Different Moisturizing lotion, is the most fantastic thing  I own of these. I haven't replaced the first one I have gotten in years, one pump maayyybbee two is all it takes to spread ion your face and neck
(I use the dot method and then spread) and your skin feels so soft and smooth. It has never clogged my pores or had any outrageous effects on my face and that is why I always use it and will always recommend it to anyone looking for a good face lotion. 


Some other favorites :
Lush Sea Salt , a fantabulous scrub whenever my face needs one this is what I use(If I have it) 
Lush Eau Roma Toner, a nice, refreshing toner I used in the past and I really enjoyed it, if not only for the smell and refreshing feeling.
Yes to carrots C the difference Seems they don't offer this any longer and that is sad. I have two Jars from a Yes to Carrots Party that my friend had gotten to throw and I really loved the mask. I am sad it is gone. It doesn't irritate and comes off pretty easily. The Size of the product though is a small hole in a big can. 
Yes to Carrots Cucumber Cleansing Towelettes  i've only used these once because they are pretty expensive (Usually use store brands, ELF brand, or F21 love & Beauty) but boy they are refreshing. I have a weakness for cucumbers anyway so that may be why I show my love for this product. Removes well enough (but I don't wear a lot of make up regardless) and just feels nice. 

I may add more choices later but these are the first to come to mid.

Next will probably be my Second Pink Wednesday and then another installment of These are a few of my favorite things (on my head).

Review! WalMart Masks Freeman Pomegranate

I actually used this one a while ago and never wrote it...until now!
I did this one with my roommate and it was okay. I guess I'm not a fan of the peel-off since it was pretty annoying to remove but I know i'm impatient and messy enough already without having to do a peel that makes me feel like I'm removing skin (and some vellus hair with it) from a sunburn. My skin felt fine after the fact, clean and smooth, but my skin rarely reacts to much except for salicylic acid and some really greasy foods. Otherwise I'm just a little red in the face. 
My skin is combination with dry patches so I try to get moisturizing masks as often as I allow myself, but I don't continually do treatments since I do not have the need. So to me this treatment wasn't worth the pain, but it was a $1.37 at Walmart so I'm not hurting financially over it, I have a couple more peel off and mud's to try so I'll see if the fruit used has any difference, but I doubt it. 
My roommate liked it though, it didn't have a high adverse affect that I could see and she said she enjoyed the process of taking the mask off and the little hair it removed. Dries clear(hence the look of peeling skin as well) and if you over apply in places it can take even longer to dry and make the peeling process even more of a pain. I know I avoided my hair but the mask still ended up in my hair and felt like glue stuck in it. I don't remember it being very tight on my face but I was aware when it was mostly dry.
Overall:
If you enjoy peeling masks I say go for it! No points marked off for it beauty potency, I just hated peeling the mask off. Give me a Wash Cloth and water any day!

Pink Wednesday numero uno!

Finally painted my nails, I was disheartened when my nail broke pretty far down so i didn't feel like painting them for a while. Then they got worse and it kicked my butt into gear,and being (now) Wednesday, I did my  first pink Wednesday!
I love doing multiple colors so grey and pink seemed perfect, i used Wet N Wild Coloricon Diamond in the Rough, it was sheer so I used China Glaze elephant walk underneath. The Pink is L'oreal Paris Pink shells 222. it took about two coats and it's very pretty. 
I'm soon to be trying homemade recipes on health and beauty supplies and giving the rundown.
Pinterest is my new best friend. My fiance bought me mason jars and i'm excited to make remedies to store in them. Seriously Mason Jars are the best thing ever. Storage, cups, DIY crafts lights whatever you fancy!
All right reviews to come! 
stay  frosty.

Mani: Silver and Gold

In celebration of the Olympics FINALLY ending (while the Olympics are great and I love that USA won) I find it incredibly boring to watch, usually because Basketball was on, but finally we are free and can celebrate victory!
So OPI Warm and Fozzie 
OPI Skull and Glossbones with China Glaze Hologram over it. 
I actually kept my last mani for a while and got quite a few compliments on it,it made me happy and excited to tell people the wonders of a simple make up sponge. :3

Looking Forward: 
All I can say is I've seen swatches of the O.P.I. Skyfall collection and I can say I want them!
Live and Let die is beautiful and the world is not enough is a fab golden glitter apparently with a hint of duo-chrome :D

I look forward to being able to purchase the German collection as well, (being German myself and having been there I can say I was quite excited when I heard of it I'll be trying them out as soon as I can get some!)

On another note! I've created a blog for fitness! 
I have a lofty goal of 109 pounds total to happiness but we will see what I can actually do.
You can see it Here: 
also I made this the other day and wanted to share my #firstworldproblems


well that is what I have today, I'll be posting my reviews of some cheap masks I found at Wal-Mart soon!

Mani: Make Up sponges

It is NOT cleaned up, but I was messing around thinking of what to do and I started messing with a make up sponge....and doing a french tip and I was like Yay! 
I saw a pretty dress in the green and blue colors and decided that was the color combo I wanted. 
OPI Mermaids Tears and Ogre the Top Blue were the closest I had to the colors.
Sponges are so much fun, they give such cool effects, speckles, fading and the like. 
I was thinking it would be great for blood splatter effects for Halloween or Dexter nails.
I had wanted m effect to be more....precise but I wasn't trying hard....
BUT! If you don't have make-up sponges I sincerely suggest you get some.
Great for make up, nail art arts, and crafts and whatever else I love having them.
Now, I used Seche Vite for a top coat and it spread the french tip coat and made some the specks go away which was sad so I'll have to experiment with dryness to top coat I guess.
I have been drawing designs and I will be putting them to nail when I get some Nail Wheels, I think my next Mani will be more Rave attire appropriate as I may be attending one Saturday. I guess. 
We will see.
Fare thee Well Readers.
Also One follower! Whoo hoo I'm hitting the big time
Thanks friend! :3
