June 2011 Beauty Favorites

June 27, 2011 by: admin

Are you someone who has a million beauty products, but always uses the same few over and over and over?

If so you’re just like me.

It seems like I’ve used nothing, but these few products over and over again lately.

2011 Summer/June Beauty Favorites

1. Prtty Peaushun Body Lotion. This stuff is amazing!
2. Xen Tan Daily Self Tan. Best self tanner I’ve ever used!
3. Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray. Use this and your makeup won’t budge all day!
4. Origins Vitazing Moisturizer. The only “foundation” I’ve been wearing lately.
5. Pro Face No Sweat Perspiration Retardant. Use this under your foundation for those days you’ll be in the sun a lot, but still want to look fresh.
6. Organix Moroccan Argan Oil. This product prevents UV damage to your hair and leaves it soft and smooth.
7. Lorac Double Feature Concealer and Highlighter. Decent product, not sure if I’d repurchase yet though.
8. Revlon Just Bitten Lipstain in Frenzy. I normally don’t like lipstains, but this is great for a day at the beach or at the pool because it stays put.
9. Urban Decay Naked Palette. Love this palette!
10. Mehron Setting Powder. This antiperspirant product is great for keeping the summer greasy look away.
11. Victoria’s Secret Radiant Face Trio in White Hot. Love this highligher. It’s just gorgeous.
12. Not pictured, but a favorite none the less is Benefits Creaseless Shadow in RSVP. Wear this under Urban Decays Sin as a primer and my shadow lasts all day.

Xen Tan Perfect Bronze Sheer Powder Bronzer Review

February 8, 2010 by: admin

Happy Monday!  Hope your week is off to a great start so far. 

If you’ve been reading the blog very long then you know I’m a huge fan of Xen Tan self tanner.  It gives you with the most gorgeous brown tanned skin every time you use it with no streaking.

Well, I have another great Xen Tan product to tell you about today and it’s the bronzing powder.

Keep Reading for my review….

What it is:

Perfect Bronze is the perfect ‘compact’ tan. This is not a blush. With a new formula for 2010, Perfect Bronze is a true brown-based bronzer without a glimmer of shiny-looking shimmer that’s excellent for creating or enhancing the look of healthy, glowing, tanned skin.

What they say:

Achieve natural color that never looks orangey or pink, even on fair skins. This transparent bronzing powder never looks heavy or muddy; it gives a beautiful tan on clean skin or over your favorite foundation. Use it to blend the skin on your neck to match the tan on your face and body.

Features and Benefits:

The realistic bronze color and sheer, semi-transparent texture is blended to perfection for a natural look. The long-lasting formula allows skin to maintain its sun-kissed glow throughout the day. Paraben-free

Usage:

For a natural bronzed look apply to areas of the face that the sun would naturally tan. Gently brush along your hairline, jaw line, and tip of your nose for a realistic glow. Apply to hollows of cheeks to create the illusion of high cheek bones.

Our thoughts:

The gorgeous sunny days of Spring are still a long way away, but that doesn’t mean you’re stuck with pale skin until then.

Xen Tan Bronzer is the perfect product for that natural sun kissed glow (even for you pale girls like myself) without the use of things like those horrible tanning beds.

When I first received this bronzer the packaging was the first thing I noticed. The compact is a gorgeous bronze shade and it has a nice big mirror inside. It’s the perfect size for throwing in your purse and taking with you on the go.

And the product is just as lovely as the packaging.

This bronzer gives you the same brown, sun kissed skin that the self tanner does. And I’m happy to report that there is no orange in sight.

In the compact I notice a few sparkles, but once the bronzer is applied to your skin it appears to have more of a matte finish.

Overall I would say that I’m very impressed with this bronzer. It will give you a nice natural brown tan and have people asking you how you have such a lovely sunkissed glow in this dreary winter weather we’re all experiencing. I give this bronzer two thumbs up.

Have you tried this product before? What were your thoughts?

Xen Tan Perfect Bronze Sheer Powder is available for :$35.00 at www.xen-tan.com

Xen Tan Transform Luxe Sunless Tanner Review

July 13, 2009 by: admin

I’m sure you all know by now that the only safe way to tan is to fake it….Right? Good! I knew I had the smartest readers out there *smile*. So why are you still roasting yourself in the sun/tanning bed? What? You can’t seem to find a self tanner that won’t leave you looking like an oompa loompa? Look no further I have the product for you. What is it you ask? Xen Tan!

Xen Tan is the most luxurious(and safe) way to stay tan all year. And the new enhanced version,LUXE, gives you the same great sunless tan with a boost of tanning power and a great vanilla scent. Use daily for a dark tan or every other day to maintain a medium self-tan.

I’ve tried so many self tanners over the years and none of them compare. This product leaves you with a deep brown color and as long as you follow the directions you’ll never look streaky. It has never left me disappointed. I can’t say enough good things about it. And guess what? If you order online by clicking here and enter code VACATION09 before August 30,2009 you will receive 15% off! Can’t beat that right?

A Large 8 oz tube of Xen Tan Luxe retails for :$30.00.
