UPDATE ABOUT MY BLOG

HEY EVERYONE,

I know I have not been active for a while but I am looking at getting back into blogging. I have started using instagram a lot recently and I think combining the two would be amazing to share product reviews. My goal is to try and post once a week.

I really want to grow my community and share my thoughts on products but also share photos of things that interest me.

I will be posting something this week!!!

Take Care!

Broadway Nails imPRESS Press-on Manicure

Welcome to this blog post!

I am here to write a review on some awesome press-on nails I received from Influenster a few weeks ago. I am reviewing Broadway imPRESS Manicure in Control Freak and Dancing Queen press-on nails. I am really excited to share this quick little review on these products.

The two press-on nails: Control Freak(pink) and then Dancing Queen(zebra print)

 imPress Press-on Nails in Dancing Queen


imPress Press-on Nails in Control Freak

I mixed the two designs up and I think it looks FABULOUS! In love with these two sets!

These press-on nails look very pretty and it looks like I got them professionally done at a salon. I love how easy they are to apply and how long they last. I wore these for 5 days and none of the nails popped off. Only reason  I took them off is because I wanted to change my nails up. I also enjoyed all the sizes that came in the box and I was able to find the perfect fit for each of my nails. When I applied these I found they were easy to stick on and they were very sticky. They stuck to my nails very well and I didn't even have to worry about these falling off. After the 5 days  I am happy to say that these did not pop off and did not lift either. They are prefect for special occasions or even for daily wear.

One thing to be careful about is to gently peel the sticky tab off because sometimes if you pull to hard it might bend the press-on nail. Just a heads up when applying them.

Overall, I would rate these 5 out of 5 because I found no issues with these and they definitely lasted longer than I thought they would. I AM IMPRESSED!

I got these complimentary from Influenster and Broadway Nails for reviewing purposes. Everything mentioned above is my 100% honest opinion.

If anyone has any questions about these press on nails let me know.

Oh yes, I bought french tip ones the other day as well because I love these so much!  I will post a pic below :)


I hope you all enjoyed my review!

Influenster Mystery Brand: Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser Review


Hello Everyone!


I am super excited to be writing this post  on my Influenster Mystery Brand reveal and my guess was correct it was the new Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser line. I am writing this review after multiple uses of this AH-MAZING product line.

First of all, I have tried multiple Garnier products and their are a lot I love but their are also some I found that didn't work for me. This is definitely one of my top favourite product lines from them by far. 

In this post I will be going threw my opinions on each of the products that I was given to try out by Influenster.




Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser Shampoo

First thing I like about this product is how nicely it lathers and I was surprised by it because I have issues finding a good shampoo that lathers and cleans my hair nicely. I also enjoy the scent of this shampoo a lot. Since this product cleans my hair it doesn't leave it oily. I would recommend this to anyone because it really does clean your hair, moisturize it and smells amazing.


Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser Conditioner

This is the conditioner that is part of this line and I must say I am impressed on how nice and smooth this made my hair feel for just a conditioner. This has a nice thick texture to it which is amazing because I do not like watery feeling conditioners. By this being thick it made my hair feel smooth. It was easy to distribute all over my hair and it was super easy to rinse off. This is definitely a keeper!

Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser Split-End Bandage 

I am excited to rave about this little hair miracle product. I think this product is the number one reason why my hair has been super soft lately. This makes my hair very smooth, reduces frizz and makes it shiny. I am in love with this product and it is definitely a must have in this whole hair care line. I use a quarter size of it in my palm and massage into my ends when my hair is damp. It smells just as good as the other hair care products. If you are looking to try just one product out I would recommend this one to anyone with dry damaged hair because it works so amazingly! Oh and you also do not need much of it in your hair! A little goes a long way depending on your hair length.



Garnier Fructis Damage Eraser Strength Reconstructing Butter Hair Mask

This product is definitely a weekly hair treatment because it really moisturizes and smooths out your hair so nicely. I find it helps a lot with my frizzy hair and especially with how damage it is. This makes my hair look and feel so much better with just one use in the shower and that is why I will use it at least once a week to keep my hair looking great. You do not need to use a lot of this in your hair because a good size amount will spread evenly. I recommend this to anyone who is struggling with their hair and needs a instant fix. I can honestly say I will be repurchasing this over and over again because it is quite amazing. My sister also tried this out and loves it so much.

As you can tell I am really loving every product individually in this hair care line by Garnier because it does what it claims to do. If you are looking for something new to try out this is probably something to look into if you have damaged hair like myself.

Thank you Garnier and Influenster for giving me the opportunity to try out these products for free. It really changed the way my hair looks and feel.

Influenster: The L'Oreal Canada Mystery VoxBox


Hello Everyone,

Earlier today I received a Mystery VoxBox from Influenster and I was super excited to see what was inside. What came inside the box was some hair care products to try out from one of L'Oreal Canada's brands. When I opened the box all I could smell was the nice fruity sweet scent and that made me more excited to try it out.





So, inside the box came a shampoo, conditioner and split-end serum. Exciting isn't it!




Of course I had to try these products immediately because I am always in search for new hair care products. So,  today I used the products and so far so good. The shampoo cleansed my hair very nice, the conditioner really made my hair soft and serum helped my hair become a lot smoother. I also really love the smell it left in my hair. I am definitely going to have to try this a couple more times to give a better review.

As for what my guess for what brand this may be, I am thinking it may be Garnier new line for damaged hair. I may be correct!

I cannot wait to try this product out some more and find out the brand reveal. I will keep you posted on my thoughts and opinions as I continue to try this!

These products were sent from Influenster to try out and from the Mystery Brand!

NYC New York Color Big Bold Plumping & Shine Lip Gloss AND Big Bold Curl Mascara Review

Hello Everyone!

I want to write this quick post on the NYC Big Bold Plumping & Shine Lip Gloss and also on the Big Bold Curl Mascara that I received in my Influenster Maple VoxBox for free! I just want to share my opinion of these two specific products and hopefully help you get an idea on how these products work!


NYC Big Bold Plumping & Shine Lip Gloss in Big City Blush


I am really loving this lip gloss! I have been using this so much since I have received it because it is a perfect everyday gloss! I love that this gloss is not sticky and lasts a couple hours. I bring this everywhere I go and so I can touch up throughout the day. I don't feel that this gloss gives my lips any plumping affect but it is still works great! I have been at the drugstore recently and I am going to pick up a few more shades because of how wonderful it is. 

PROS: colour payoff, packaging, applicator, formula, non-sticky, variety of shades, and inexpensive

CONS: barely no plumping affect (everyone is different and may work differently on your lips)


NYC Big Bold Curl Mascara in Extreme Black


I think this might be my favourite NYC product so far! This mascara lengthens my lashes so much and gives them an awesome curl! It kind of makes my lashes look fake in away which I love. I also love you can build this mascara quite a bit to have a bold look but also you can use less and achieve a perfect everyday look. My lashes are a little long to start with and this mascara really makes them look amazing. I am really impressed by how well this mascara works and what is more great is that it is affordable! If you are reading this I highly suggest that you give this a try if you are a fan of mascaras in general! (note: everyone has different types of lashes and you may achieve a different outcome, this goes for any mascara you are trying out) but honestly it is worth a try!

PROS: lengthening, curling affect, packaging, colour

CONS: little bit of smudging throughout the day ( NYC should perhaps look into a waterproof version if they haven't already), not to much volume in the lashes when applied


Overall, I am really satisfied with the two products mentioned in this blog post. I have a picture on instagram of me using these two products!
