Review: MEGA PROTEIN by Wet N’ Wild

Hi there you guys, I went to the Drugstore one of this days and of course, I came across “The Makeup Aisle” and I started looking for mascaras, and I noticed that there are a lot of mascaras out there ranging from very expensive such as $15 (come on! that’s expensive for drugstore!) going all the way down to very cheap such as $2. When I saw this $2 Price tag, I was like, no way! that must be the worst mascara, ever I grab it started reading the packaging and then I thought to myself maybe this is not that bad, and I might need to try this mascaras and break the stigmas we have around cheap thing not being great,

Long story short, I went ahead and got the MEGA PROTEIN Mascara by Wet N’ Wild in the water-proof formula in the color very black.

The Product Claims:

PARABEN-FREE
NOURISHES YOUR LASHES
SOY PROTEIN FORTIFIED
ENRICHED WITH ACAI OIL
LASH CONDITIONING

My Thoughts:

I love the curl that It gives to my lashes and they stay up all day (that might have to be with the water-proof formula).
Applies very easily with no clumps and it won’t live you with spidery lashes if you put 2 coats.
Separates lashes, giving a filling effect
I love the fact that we have so many nourishing and fortifying elements going into this formula, that I have noticed that my lashes don’t get as damage as if I would use any other water-proof formula, they are less dry and they haven’t got any thinner with me using this mascara, and I’ve been using it for 2 weeks straight.
How does it take off!? Well it’s definitely not as easy as if you would be wearing a regular formula. I find that I have to use 2 cotton balls in order to take the entire product of my eyes
The down side!? They give you very little product, but once again, you only pay like 2$ so I guess it’s fair.

DEMO

For the DEMO, I took pictures of me in different parts of the application process, so you can see the actual performance of the mascara itself, and for that reason, I am only wearing mascara, foundation and a neutral blush; and totally avoid any kind of distracting colors such as, eye shadows and glitter off my face.

Finally, I totally recommend this product, I think it’s so worth the try, you get so much overall for so little money. I ended up very happy with this purchase and I will totally repurchase this whenever I ran out of it.

Hope this review was helpful for you guys, let me know your thoughts, suggestions, requests, also let me know if you have any questions regarding the product. Don’t forget to share it with your peeps and give us your feedback! until next time! muah!

JUSTFAB most have boots haul &review !!

Fall for me it’s the best season of the year; It is not too hot, not too cold, It’s just perfect. The best part is that we get to use all type of boots we want and always be on style with the season. I love all types of boots, heeled boots, flat boots,ankle boots,knee high boots, and combat boots. It’s still really warm in CA, but I wanted to be ready with my JUSTFAB boots!!!! I know I promised this blog about 3 weeks ago , but I had some problems with the fitting of the boots. I sent two pairs back and exchange them one for a bigger size and the other one a smaller size, we can never be sure when it comes to sizes specially ith boots. I’ts been a week since my amazing JUSTFAB boots arrived and I’ve been using them since then so I am finally ready to tell you guys what I think.*/

JUSTFAB have an incredible boot collection to help us all to be ready for the fall or every occasion. I found three pairs of boots from the collection which I think are absolutely necessary for the season. Remember guys when it comes to the size of shoes, make your choice base on your own experience with shoes because sizes change according to the style and brand. I also get this question a lot “Is it comfortable to walk with?” I try to give you guys a general answer. Although I did try to use this boots in all the different activities possible that came to my mind, You need to keep in mind that the activities that i realized and the time I did them might be different than yours. Lets start with the service, it was amazing!! I couldn’t do the return online because It wouldn’t let me keep a pair and send two back. It wanted for me to send everything, so I called customer service and the people was really nice. The entire process of the exchange was fast and easy, I loved it.!!

Zella

I chose this style because they look though and elegant at the same time. I really like these boots they are really versatile and a wardrobe staple. This style is all about the details, It can be pair for a casual and elegant day look. The size runs half a size too large, so I was a little disappointed when it didn’t fit me, but know that I have right size I can tell you guys, this boots are amazing! Are they comfortable to walk with? They are comfortable enough to go shopping with them. I bought them in dark brow and I have been styling them with pixie pants, denim, tank tops and jackets.

Armey

This boot are amazing!!! they can give a lot of personality to a simple outfit. I first got hem and they were to small they run one size small so I had to order them a size bigger and sill were feeling a little to tight from my caves, I took the to Nordstroms so they could stretch them out for me. The process was really fast it barely took 2 hours for they to have them read for me. the boots are pretty, simple and with an army style, they are really nice but no so comfortable to walk for long distance or going shopping.! You guys might know by now I love walking and I love for my shoes to have style and also to be comfortable. If you guys are looking for a long comfort his boots might not be the most appropriate ones. this Armey boots are pretty and nice but they are my less favorite from the entire purchased.

Raine

raine Perfect size and perfect fit .Some boots tend to run half size bigger or smaller, but this ones are in the accurate size and fit scale. I chose this boots because they are wide calf and they are so pretty and classy that need it to be in my wardrobe. I’v been wearing them for a while now and they are comfortable to walk with. I have wore the when it was raining and they are perfect!. I like to pair them with pretty leg warmers skinny jeans and oversize sweaters. my favorite boots!!!

Black Friday Haul 2014

Ok you guys as you may notice, the holidays are among us, and as you guys obviously know yesterday was black Friday! WOOT WOOT!, and of course I had to take advantage of it and get amazing, and crazy deals for ~~my Christmas Shopping~~ myself! and so I did. I got quite a lot of things for this winter time, and basically I focused in getting cute stuff to keep me warm. If may I add, when it comes to me shopping my family and friends criticize me a lot ’cause they say that I have a very manly way to shop for things (especially clothes), which means that If I see something that I really like, you can bet that I will get it at least in two different colors. lol. or sometimes I might even get the same style in the same color just to get it as backup, sometimes it might not even be back up and I’ll just have both pair in use, crazy huh!? but anyways! Since I already addressed my little shopping weirdo habit of getting the same thing in a different color and stuff, we can jump right into the haul!

So my shopping day consisted on going to GAP, Lululemon, Reebok Store. Needless’ to say the big lines just to get into the stores, in the fitting rooms and crazy lines just to pay, it was insane.

My trip to the GAP store consisted in basically sweater and as I said earlier they are basically the same style in a whole bunch of colors. First thing I got this long sleeve sweater!? Actually I don’t know ’cause to me it’s more of a long sleeve shirt, it has this beautiful detail on the collar and at the end of the sleeves and its also a V neck. So I figured that I would have uncountable numbers or combinations to wear this winter time. Oh BTW, the colors I got are, Black, Grey, Off-White, Dark grey with light grey lines pattern.

I also got this two cute long slevee shirts, one’s crew neck (teal) and the other one is V-Neck (royal blue), this claimed that they are supposed to be super soft, they even have that printed on the shirts, and just let me tell you that they are truly super soft and comfortable, they’re also really warm and cozy <3. All of this clothes I got them in a size “Small”.

Last but not least of the things that I got at the GAP store was this cute white knitted sweater, that has this little detail that looks like it’s not finished but it is.. (yeah Allie, That explains a lot!) lt gives it, this relaxed vibe to it and this boho chic look. This is also a size “Small” and It’s really baggy and relax fitting ❤

At Lululemon, I got this cute long sweater that has the same boho chic vibe as the other one I got at the GAP Store, this last one I got in a Burgundy Color and I love the fact that has peep holes for my thumbs, and to me this actually makes it a little more cozy and I love it. I also got two Headbands one Blue and Grey and one Burgundy that matches my new sweater.

At the Reebok Store I got a Pair of grey shoes that are for Skyscaping and they look so simple and casual that I couldn’t help myself to not buy them. for those pictures, I’ll be tweeting them from my phone, my camera died or something like that and I really wanted to get this Blog up by today, since yesterday was BlackFriday and it just feels right to have this up by today.

I hope you guys enjoyed my little haul, you also got to know my weird shopping habit. Let me know if you guys want a styling blog with this pieces that I showed in this blog. Don’t forget that we love your guys’ feedback, so please leave a comment, tweet us and share the blog, we’ll love you for that and don’t forget to send us your links and pictures of your BlackFriday Shopping Deals. Until next time guys.

Drugstore GEMS: Sally Hansen, Hard as Nails, Base Coat.

Hello you guys!? how is everybody doing!? are you guys enjoying this beautiful fall weather!? ❤ ’cause I am loving it so much! <3.

But going back to today’s Blog… Today I noticed the newly improved health of my nails, and I owe it all to this little guy right here <3, The Hard as Nails, Base Coat by Sally Hansen. To be honest I got this product just because I ran out of my OPI Nail Base Coat, and I wanted to do my nails so badly that I just went ahead to the drugstore and got this little guy super randomly, it just so happened that I ended up loving it, and I also thing that this is not rave enough here in the beauty community.

Up until today, I have been using this base coat for about 2 months now, and at first I thought it was a good product but nothing out of the ordinary, I finished the bottle, but i really wasn’t into repurchasing it, also I found another base coat on my nail polish drawer so I went ahead and used it. After 2 manicure that I gave myself that didn’t lasted very long I realized that, this “Hard as Nails” was the balm! it not only made my nails harder but it made my nail polished to last for a little over a week and sometimes even two weeks, which for me it is amazing, due to the fact that I do laundry, cook, do dishes and all sort of things, This is actually pretty cool.

I will recommend this base coat to anyone who has really fragile and breakage prone nails. and basically anyone who likes to have a at home long-lasting manicure. This product it is really awesome and it deserves 4.5 out of 5 Stars ❤
