Hey Guys,

Today I'm going to share my thoughts on the Fenty Beauty Lil' Bronze Duo. I picked this up a while back during a sale and realized I never got around to reviewing it. I really love that Fenty Beauty offers a bunch of little mini deluxe size sets. It allows you to try out these products before committing to the full size ones. Also, if you are like me, you have so much makeup that you don't necessarily need the full sized product. I previously reviewed another mini Fenty set called the Bomb Baby Mini Lip and Face set which you can check out HERE. Keep reading to hear what I thought about the Lil' Bronze Duo!

Hey Guys,
Today I'm going to share my thoughts on a little Fenty Beauty set that I picked up from Sephora a few weeks ago. I haven't tried any Fenty Beauty products besides the foundation so I figured it was a good opportunity to a couple things out. Keep reading to learn more about this set and to hear my thoughts on it!

 

Review: Ipsy Glam Bag October 2014

Hi Ladies!

I'm back with another Ipsy Glam Bag review!  I'm so excited that October is here! My husband and I LOVE Halloween and all the fun that comes along with it. Although I have not been able to do all the thing I usually do around this time of year, I am having a Halloween Party which is cool.  For those of you unfamiliar with  Ipsy, it is a monthly beauty subscription service. For $10.00 a month, you get 4-5 deluxe to full size beauty products. To learn more you can check out my previous Ipsy reviews on my Subscription Reviews tab at the top of my blog.  The theme of this month's bag is "Beauty Candy". I was expecting to see Halloween themed items or colorful bright colors. This was not the case but I really don't mind either way. I was really happy with my bag last month so I had high hopes for this month.

Lets move on to the items that I recieved!

Get the Look for Less

Hi Ladies! 

I have FINALLY finished another edition of Get the Look for Less. I have really struggled with getting this post finished. One of the reasons being that they take a lot of time to finish. I spend a significant amount of time searching for looks that are comparable to the ones that I find of celebrities. If I can't find anything similar that I am willing to post, I end up deleting it and searching for more looks. I also didn't have a ton of luck finding looks that I wanted to replicate. Does anyone know of better sites to find celebrities in everyday clothing? I use photos from the E! online site. I am trying to decide if I want to continue this series or if I want to think of a new fashion series to do instead.   Any feedback would be appreciated.

On to the looks....

Favorite Fragrances

Just like clothes, I have always felt that fragrances can reflect your personality or feeling of the day. Below are a list of my all time favorite fragrances. 

Miss Dior Cherie by Dior:



This fragrance is sweet yet sophisticated. To me, it smells like cherries. I recently have found out that this is discontinued. I am SO upset about this. This is my all time favorite perfume. If you are lucky, you may be able to pick this up online somewhere such as Fragrancex.com or at an outlet store. For some reason Dior decided to keep the same packaging, drop the Cherie, and completely change the fragrance.  Don't be fooled...it is not the same fragrance.

Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna:






I feel like Rihanna has done a really good job at helping choose her fragrance scents. Although I'm not a fan of the original perfume Rebelle, I absolutely love this frangrance. It is more edgy and bold than Miss Dior Cherie. 

• Top Notes: Red Berries, Purple Plum, Peach
• Middle Notes: Hawaiian Hibiscus Flower, Violet, Tuberose, Coconut Water
• Base Notes: Vanilla, Patchouli, Amber, Musk

$59.00 at Macy's

Nude by Rihanna:



This is one of Rihanna's newer fragrances. It is more of a subtle scent but is lovely. I tend to wear this during the work week and save the stronger (and more favorable) fragrances for going out or special occasions.

• Top: Guava Nectar, Mandarin, Pear
• Heart: Orange Blossom, Gardenia Petals, Velvet Jasmine Sambac
• Base: Sandalwood, Second-skin Musk, Vanilla Orchid

$59.00 at Macy's

Viva la Juicy by Juicy Coture:



VLJ is more of a fun, flirty, seductive fragrance. Like the others it is a sweeter smelling fragrance. It is less bold than some one my other picks so I tend to wear this more during the week as well.

• Top: Wild Berries and Mandarin
• Heart: Honeysuckle, Gardenia, Jasmine
• Base: Amber, Caramel, Vanilla, Sandalwood, Praline

$90.00 at Sephora

Euphoria by Calvin Klein:



Euporia is one of the more unique fragrances that I have come across. To me, it smells mysterious and daring. Rihanna's Reb'l Fleur reminds me a little of this. I would put them in the same category for type of scent. I don't wear this scent very often but I would like to add it back into rotation.

• Top Notes: pomegranate, persimmon, lush green
• Middle Notes: lotus blossom, champaca flower, black orchid
• Base Notes: liquid amber, black violet, cream, mahogany

$85.00 at Macy's
