Clairisonic Mia Review

My opinion in the first few days of using the Clairisonic was WOW. I used it along with my husband and we were both very impressed at how our faces looked and felt after washing. I was using the Clairisonic with the Clairisonic cleanser and it just polished my face like no other. I have been using the Clairisonic for about 5 months now and I'm absolutely obsessed. I only use it in the evening because I was finding that my skin was beginning to feel raw from using twice a day. It works like a charm! I recommend the Clairisonic to everyone.

Review: MAC Lightful Collection

First of all, let's say HOLY "MACaroni" did MAC do a fabulous job on this collection or what?! After a year of searching high and low for a facial regime I finally found a product that works for me and does WONDERS might I add. Although this collection is only sold in pro MAC stores I managed to make my way to get some samples of the whole line. I've been an avid buyer in Sephora and nothing I tried was working.
Basically, I tried it, absolutely loved it, and just had to buy it. I only bought:
-Foaming Creme Cleanser $24
-Charged Essence Serum $40
-Deep UltraMoisture Creme $38

I figured I can save some $ by not buying the Active Softening Lotion $30 a.k.a. toner since I use my Clairasonic nightly.

I totally recommend that you try this line out. Ask for a sample at MAC and see if it works for you!!!

I originally wanted to do a zebra print with the white but it was ruining the nail polish (probably because I didn't let it dry thoroughly).

Let's give this a try...

I've been wanting to do something like this for a while now. I search the web through YouTube, google, etc. for particular reviews but sometimes I just can't find exactly what I'm looking for. Sometimes I have information for others on products that I want to share. I tried the YouTube video route but I'm so camera shy and don't like how I look in them either :)
Here I am today, starting something I'm not sure what will become of it. We'll see!
