Delizioso Skincare Mangosteen & Acai Super Anti-Aging Facial Cream

Delizioso Skincare Mangosteen & Acai Super Anti-Aging Facial Cream

 I don't know how to put this but the smell is sickeningly disgusting. At first I thought okay maybe it is just the mangosteen in it and the smell will fade. No, it doesn't! It lingers forever on my hand and doesn't wash off and since it is a face cream I could never use it on my face. I honestly can say I have no clue how it works because the smell is so bad that I couldn't even use it. And this sample was supposed to be worth almost $20 and in my opinion it is worth less than a dollar. I guess I will have a nice little jar for other samples once I get rid of this stuff.

Final opinion: I will never buy this.

So what did I pick? 

Freeman Beauty Feeling Beautiful Cucumber Peel Off Mask

Cucumber Peel Off Mask

 This is a product that I got interested in after reading a fellow blogger's review. So when I was in my local Wal-Mart I found the travel size packet which looked like it could be use once or twice and I bought it. I went home and tried it that same day and I was thoroughly surprised at the consistency of the mask. The mask is very thick and sticky almost like honey and has a nice cucumber scent. The mask was a little tricky to apply at first because I started out with it going on too thick but once I figured out it, it got easier. As the mask starts to dry it gets really shiny like your skin is made of plastic. Once it dries completely (dry to the touch and no longer sticky) it is time to peel it off. I will say that this is the most entertaining face mask I have, even my husband gets a kick out of it. I start peeling it off (it is the most fun part) and I go fairly slowly because it does grab on to any hair it can find (no matter how hard I try to avoid my hair line and eyebrows.) After the entire mask is removed a quick rinse and my face feels so refreshed, clean, and soft.

Final opinion: I will keep buying this I already found a BOGO sale and picked up two full size tubes. This will definitely stay in my skin care routine unless I find a better mask out there.

 Here is what I got:
 

Julep Nail Vernis- America

Julep America

 Since I wasn't certain of the coverage of this polish I went ahead and did two coats of Kate first before applying America. I loved how it turned out but I kept getting the corners of the stars caught and ended up ruining this mani by pulling them off. But I think a couple of coats of top coat and it should be fine next time.

Julep O Canada!

O Canada

So in honor of the Olympics I am trying to keep my nails painted with more patriotic colors, unfortunately I have no blue polish so it is not as patriotic for the USA but more for Canada. I have recently started to love glitter polish but I have found that I tend to peel the glitter polish off. So my first mani with this only lasted one day so I promptly redid my mani and made sure to add a nice amount of top coat to keep me from peeling it off. I have had problems with all of my glitter polish chipping really bad so I am not sure if this is how most glitter polishes are when worn alone.
