Hello My BA Beauties and welcome to another installment of my POV :) ( insert giggle here)
I treated my self to a buying craze at Smashbox Cosmetics and bought great items to add to my Makeup collection. Part of my Vday gift to myself was purchasing the Smashbox Try it Kit. The kit cost only $19 though the value of it stated is $52 and I can see why.
You receive .25 fl oz of Photo finish foundation primer, .02 fl ox of the Photo Finish Lid primer, .13fl oz of Hyperlash mascara in Black, Limitless eye liner in Onyx and Smashbox Lip Enhancing Lip Gloss in Illume .14fl oz. Now since you guys know I am about finding products for those just starting out or getting back into makeup, this is a fabulous kit to purchase.
The primers feel amazing and so light on my skin. Since I have never used a foundation primer before I was not sure exactly what is was for. Smashbox's foundation primer has a lightweight blend of vitamins A and E, Grape Seed extract and Green Tea. It is said to create a great canvas for you to put your foundation on and it can me worn alone or under your foundation. It said to help reduce fine line and reduce pore size. All I can tell you is it feels amazing on the skin.
Since I already own some of Smashbox's eyeliners, I was already impressed with those so the limitless eye liner was no exception. I am however getting to have more eyeliner in various colors. There is just something creating eye lines is colors just fabulous to me.
The Lip enhancing gloss is gorgeous and so not sticky which I am overjoyed with. It can either be worn alone or used over your fav lipstick.
Now, unfortunately, I did have a bit of an issue with the hyper lash mascara. While the mascara itself is amazing, the applicator is plastic and flexible which wasn't the problem. The problem is how wet the mascara goes on initially. I know most beauties want their mascara to go one and dry quickly. But that's really my only issue.
So lovelies, I submit to you for consideration the Try it kit from smashbox. Great starter kit.
***** This is my review of what I purchased from Smashbox*******
be gorgeous. be wonderful. be you
Time to have fun with Makeup, Hair, nails, and everything that involves beauty again. Hope you all with have fun with me

Fun Look with NYX Cosmetics and Dior Mascara
Hello My BA Beauties. Today , I was talking with one of my BA Beauties , Von Kitty via skype and we were just randomly playing with our makeup. While talking to her, I decided to play with my NYX cosmetics Studio Liquid Liner in extreme smoky gray, then the NYX cosmetics jumbo eye pencil in Milk and of course ,my Dior show Waterproof Mascara in Noir.
I created just a simple eye line with a wing and just used mascara.
So BA Beauties , whatcha think? simple yet effective
Talk soon girlies

OOOOO I have Lashes - Enter DiorShow Waterproof Mascara
Good Morning lovelies.
This is my morning face ( i know not too pretty especially with my Alfalfa spike there but hey). As you can see, you can tell I really do not have many eyelashes (or they are so light they cant be seen).
For years , I figured I would never have them and since I wear glasses, not like anyone would see them. Enter Christian Dior Dior Show Mascara
. HELLO.... I found this wonderful mascara when I went to Sephora to look for foundation. When my beauty expert Cameron put this on my lashes, I was AMAZED!!!!!
I could not believe I actually had lashes and they made my eyes pop even wearing my specs.
I truly am happy with this Mascara. At Sephora, the retail price is $24.50 which is pricey considering you can get mascara from your local drug store but I was recommended Lash Blast Mascara from Covergirl as a more price friendly substitute.
I was also recommended Benefits "They're Real Mascara" which I want to buy since I was told it is on par with Dior's.
So for all you lovelies who think OMG I will never have lashes and do not wanna go the Latisse route ( changing eye colors and what not) , Please Give Dior Show a try.
You will not regret it.
STAY BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
