Naked Nail Polish Set

One of the things I was eyeing for awhile and made myself pick up, another nail polish set. This however was okay for me to pick up, after all I had a eyeshadow palette that matched, right?

The colors match the palette so well, they are Naked, Sidecar, Toasted, Smog, Hustle and Creep. Some of these colors are very sheer and some are very nicely pigmented. Naked almost matched my skin tone. Sidecar is nice, but alittle gritty on my nails, a very nice topcoat! Toasted is very sheer and my least favorite out of this set, which saddens me because I thought it would be my favorite! Smog is a very nice rust almost copper color. Hustle is a beautiful eggplant color and it is my favorite out of this set! The last is Creep, a very nice black with some added sparkle! All in all I like this set and it is nice to have, but it wasn't a must have item for me!
I purchased this set in Sephora and it was $26.

Caudalie Beauty Elixir

I believe I first saw this on a blog post, or maybe it was a beauty video. This was one of those hyped up products that everyone had to have, just because on person seemed to like it so much. Why though? Why was this product so great? So when I received a few vouchers for my birthday to Sephora, I went for the small bottle to try it out, I had only been eying it for awhile.. so why not giver it a try..

The spray contains grape, orange blossom, rose, organic balm mint and rosemary, which all claim to help smooth features, tighten pores and give your complexion a burst of radiance. The smell is of mint, a somewhat strong almost medicated smell. You can really smell the rosemary as well. I do love the fact that when it is sprayed onto the face, it absorbs very quickly and there are no droplets onto your face. The downside to this however, I did not care to much that this has alcohol in it and anything with alcohol makes my dry skin ever dryer! Therefor that nice mist feeling seems to dry my skin out instead to hydrating it.

I HAD TO HAVE THIS! Well lesson learned, the band wagon is not always something to follow, but will we ever learn? Most likely not!

Overall this product is nice to have, but its not something I would repurchase!

Review: No. 7 Lipsticks

Oh so lovely, my London goodies I brought home... Pink Lemonade and Starshell. I absolutely love these colors and fell in love at first sight. I am starting to love lipsticks more and more, still not to much of a gloss type of girl but I think I'm getting off to a good start.. I bought the first one at Boots by our Flat in London and was given a $5 off valchour, oh goodness I had to get another! The best thing about these is the staying power, the SPF and the moisture. They stay on forever it seems and are so lush!!
