This box had a lot of goodies in it, perfect for anyone wanting to retain their end of summer glow. :)
BB5 for August 2014
Let's start with the nail polish...of course!
I couldn't find anything about the nail polish online, but the brand is Style Essential Nail Polish. I received the classic black and white glitter top coat. The glitters were matte,and had a nice matte finish to them, which really gave my manicure a toned down but fun vibe. :) It applied well in one coat, but I applied two coats.
The base color I used is OPI "You're So Vain-illa" (from the Coco-Cola Collection)
Unfortunately, it did cause bubbles in my manicure, but because I used it over a nude color I didn't really notice the bubbles, too much :)
Nancoco Lip Gloss - I was hoping to get this lip gloss in a wearable color, but as you can see I received a bubblegum pink color...not for me! Darn, another one bites the dust :(
Pur-lisse Pur protect SPF 30 sunscreen - This came just in time, because I used it for my trip second to Las Vegas. This was light and easy to apply, and was super wearable under makeup. PERFECT!
La Fresh Travel Lite Oil-Free Makeup Remover Wipes - Yep, these went to Las Vegas too. I love makeup remover wipes. They are in my vanity at home, by my bed, in my gym bag and they are used all the time! I used these in Las Vegas for those late nights when I came back to the hotel and was too tired to wash my face. I know, I now, you should ALWAYS wash your face at night, but some nights end with you and your makeup face passed out in the bed FULLY CLOTHED! With these wipes, I just grabbed one or two and wiped away the night, no fuss!
Novex Brazilian Keratin - I love a good hair treatment, and this is no exception. I haven't used it yet, but t says that I should apply this post-shampoo and leave it in for 20-25 min. I can do that! :)
Overall, this box isn't bad! I know that the makeup items are always a gamble with darker skin tone, so I'll let those pass, but everything else looks, and was great! Thanks!
