My Fav Products Of 2011

Wednesday, December 28, 2011

After a long year of testing, reviews, shopping, and being introduced to stuff I would've never tried. Here is a list of some of my favs of 2011 that constant of beauty and everyday must haves. Now, there are a few repeats from 2010 but that goes to show that I must have and can't live without them. Let's begin!

Keurig K-Cup Home Brewer
I've heard so much about this machine and was not trying to believe the "Hype" until I had some ladies in a private group (EMJ) highly recommend it. In September I saw posted on a coupon site this amazing deal at Staples for the Keurig B40 that normally goes for $119.99 on sale for $69.99 w/coupon of $10.00 off bring it to $59.99. After help from a great GM in Lyndhurst, NJ he was able to find a machine for me and put it on hold. Well, that night changed my coffee experience forever.
Kcups are what holds the coffee grounds for an individual cup of coffee, teas, and hot chocolate.This thing is so convenient and life saving (being a new mom again). You can have a different cup of fresh coffee every time and none to go to waste. Keurig $98 & up. *Staples Shop At Home 4% cash back at Staples.

Other items that are not beauty related that made the list.





Need I say more? That's right it's on my list again for the second year in a row. I swear by this machine that has changed my life. I received this as an early Xmas gift from my Peanut (Olive Juice). The set came with a Cherry Blossom Clarisonic Plus and Bliss skin care w/ 3 brush heads.  Clarisonic Plus $216.48 *QVC Ebates & Shop At Home 6% cash back now.

Other beauty machine items that made the cut.




Chubby Stick Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm
Tinted lip balm that was unveil late last year. Convenient and moisturizing. Fav color Richer Raisin. Clinique Chubby Stick $15 *Sephora Ebates 8% and Shop At Home 9%.

Makeup & nail products that also made the list.




Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector
I always tell my clients that without good skin care their makeup won't look the best it can look. I take it very serious since I've been suffering from adult acne since I was 23 and I think now after 10 years or so (no adding up to figure my age please) I have gotten control of it. With the help of my great dermatologist (TY Mr. & Mrs. Dr. Horn) and a great skin care routine I'm happy with the results. YAY! Here are a few of my favs of 2011.
Being a women of color (Latina) and dealing with adult acne I've had to deal with the effects of acne scars. Clinique's Even Better Clinical is really amazing. This stuff made me skin do a 180 and made it look better then when I was a teenager. Really broke down my acne scars and even out my skin tone. It's a bit of an investment but your skin deserves it. It is the largest organ on your body. Clinique's Even Better Clinical $49.50 & up. *Ebates 6% cash back


Thanks to all my followers and supporters for a great year and looking forward to 2012! xoxo

Mani Tuesday w/ Sally Hansen Salon Effects in Collide-o-Scope

Collide-o-Scope











I know these have been talked about like crazy on blogs, youtube, and chat rooms but I still wanted to share with my Glammies my short review. I have tried a few of these stick on nail polish from Sally Hansen, Incoco, and Avon. From the 3 of those I prefer Sally Hansen & Incoco (available at a mall near you and Walgreens) Above is a picture of Collide-o-Scope right after I applied it. It took me about 10 minutes in total and super easy to apply. I received so many questions about my nails and compliments. 






























After 6 days of having these on you can see that there is barely any wear on my nails. I have 2 chips on the tip of my nail on both index fingers and that's it. I normally chip by the 2 day at least with normal polish. Below is another color I have tried and really enjoyed Booty Camp I really like these and highly recommend these. Price range from $7.60-$10.99. A+++
