Frosted Animal Cracker lip shine by Philosophy review

!
Im generally not a lip gloss girl, Im a lip balm addict and if you also have this addiction you know exactly what I mean. I am like an asthmatic who hides their inhalers but for me it is lip balm. And yes it is really addictive. That being said when I go out and get all prettied up that is the one time I will use some gloss, over the lip balm of course. I bought this product from Sephora,it is called animal cracker because it tastes like it, (nothing worse than getting a yucky tasting gloss in your mouth and you cant get rid of the taste). Well ladies this stuff is the bomb, not only does it hold true to tasting super good but this stuff gives you J. Lo lips. Its like a pale, frosty, high shine that smells and tastes delicious, so if you accidently lip your licks you will not be offended by this taste at all. It stays on well and it really gives you movie star lips. That being said they have many different flavors and I have tried quite a few and I dont think any compare to the original frosted animal cracker, not to be confused with pink frosted. It is $10 on sephora and it has lasted me awhile. I have hooked friends on this lip balm and made them believers. Love this product

Nars Blush Orgasm review

I have been using Nars blush in color Orgasm for so long I forgot exactly when I got it. This product goes into a special category which I call, Love Love Love! Back when I purchased this on Sephora I did it based on the reviews, this was one of those times when I was not misled by the reviews. Ive since seen this product in many magazines and it is always a favorite. There are many colors but I am specifically speaking of the color Orgasm,(Im thinking thats not too hard to forget). It has a sort of shimmery shine effect that gives you a bit of a glow and sparkle. I have olive skin tone but Ive had friends with much different skin shades like it as much as I did. You can purchase at either Amazon or Sephora (two of my favorite companies, easy returns if you dont like), it is $28 and it will last you forever or until you drop it(like I did) but it is worth every penny. LOVE LOVE LOVE this product. Order from Sephora.com or you can click the link and order it from Amazon.

Victoria's Secret VSX sports bra review

I have finally after months of searching and endless workouts with a crappy bra, found the mother of all sports bras. Let me start by saying, that Im a huge Victoria's Secret fan and I will also say I am not well endowed so they had me from their first miracle bra years and years ago. I dont like to be seen with out a little something that makes me look like I have just a little more than my lil old 36B. I would imagine there are many small chested woman out there that can completely relate, and for the rest of you with big old honkers please count your blessings. The problem I have come across with sports bras is that most have no padding or just not enough, and the one I thought had sufficient padding had removable pads that would move when you washed it which was a royal pain in the ass. What I love about the VSX is that it has sufficient padding and they are not removable, and by sufficient padding I mean I actually feel like I have a rack. This bra is worth every penny for 44.50 in my opinion and I would love to hear what other women think of it or even if they have found one they like even better.

They're Real Mascara review

So I purchased this mascara from Sephora for $23.00. I think that is pricey for mascara seeing as I could go grab some great lash for six bucks at CVS. See the thing is most of my friends love mascara and cant go without but Im not the biggest fan of mascara. I have yet to find a mascara that I love. I find most mascara to be messy, heavy and intrusive. I guess I'm searching for one that is light and doesnt require all sorts of time to remove, oh and of course I want it to make my eyes look like a supermodels, is that so much to ask? So heres the deal, I didnt really love this product. I was swayed to get it by the 3000 plus reviews it recieved claiming it was life changing. (are these reviews real people or the product maker?) I found it heavy and if you put too much on you will look like Alice Cooper. Getting it off was rather difficult like most mascaras. Yes my lashes looked longer but no more than the cheap mascaras make them look. I will be returning as Sephora lets you return if you dont like. I would love mascara feed back and love to know if anyone has come across a mascara that they think is a game changer.
