CN Style Society Mary Kay


I received an exciting surprise in the mail today! Conde Nast Style Society sent me a HUGE box with tons of Mary Kay goodies to try.  I have used Mary Kay in the past but then my old consultant moved and I lost touch with her. I forgot that I can just go online to marykay.com and connect with a new consultant!  

This is what I received in the box:


They really covered all the bases with options.   I have to say that I really find I need to work more on building up my lashes and brows in the past few years. Sigh....I guess it is that over-40 thing.  I was excited to try the Lash and Brow Building Serum and it worked really well for me. It was easy to apply and definitely made a difference in my lashes and brows.

I use both waterproof and regular mascara so that worked out perfectly for me. I found the Lash Love and the Ultimate mascara to be easy to apply and the Lash Love waterproof version stayed on all day and night. I prefer the black to the brown but they are both good, neutral options for the Lash Love. 

I also received the newest catalogs from Mary Kay and was impressed with the variety of items that were available from makeup to fragrances.  Check them out and let me know what you think!

Vitabath Fragrance Mist #FaveFragrance @vitabath


How exciting to see a Vitabath item peeking out of my Beauty Bloggers VoxBox 2012 from Influenster!  I received a Spa Day Cucumber & White Tea fragrance.  I love it.  It is a refreshing crisp cucumber scent mixed with soft water florals and soothing white tea.  I have used it several times already and got a ton of compliments. My hubby loves the fresh scent too! I can't wait to get online to the Vitabath website to buy the matching  Spa Day Cucumber & White Tea Body Wash!
 
 It is nice because you can layer any of your fave Vitabath fragrances to make them last even longer. They lightly scent your skin and this way you can relish it all day long!   The Spa Day formulas are revitalizing and weightless.  They are infused with conditioning vitamins and a unique antioxidant blend.  All of the ingredients help keep skin feeling refreshed and lively. You can cleanse with the Fragrance Collection Body Wash first. Next, you can layer with the matching Fragrance Collection Fragrance Mist

Not Your Mother's Hair Cream Kinky Moves #HairMoves #VoxBox

Influenster always includes a great variety of items in their VoxBoxes. The Beauty Bloggers VoxBox 2012 is no exception. It is always fun to find new products that work well for me and my busy lifestyle. 

It is hard when you have wavy/frizzy/kinky hair. Okay, I am being nice to my hair. I have to do a lot to make it look nice and I do it because I LIKE to look nice every day. Kinky Moves really makes the whole process so much easier.  Super easy...really!   Not Your Mother's Kinky Moves is infused with natural grape seed and jasmine to encourage natural curls and eliminate frizz and fly-aways.  You just apply a little bit to towel dried hair and either blow-dry or air dry to your desired style. My hair was definitely less frizzy and it styled very easily. I like that it has natural ingredients too!

You can follow them on Facebook and on Twitter.  Their twitter handle is @nymbrands.  You never know what kind of discounts or deals they might offer to their faithful followers so I always follow my faves.

I love when I get to go to the local mall...one of my fave spots is Bath & Body Works.  Everything smells so delicious especially those candles.  The variety of scents always works for me because there is something for everyone including me, my sister, my mom...you name it.
