My first Ipsy Bag: Street Style

Hello, beautiful people!!

Today, I'm coming to talk quickly about my very first Ipsy bag :) So in case you've never heard of it, Ipsy is a monthly beauty subscription founded by Youtuber Michelle Phan on the basis of  allowing others to finally figure out what beauty products are right for them. Ipsy offers its subscribers a mixture of  5 deluxe size samples and full sized beauty products from different companies (makeup, hair, skin, etc). and the best part??? It costs $10 a month....YES! Only 10 dollars. So, after researching and corresponding with my Youtube homegirl Danielle (shout to you, Miss Danielle!), I decided to take the plunge last month and subscribe. So I received the Street Style Glam bag in mid September and here's the 5 products that I received:





  • Mitchell & Peach Luxury Hand Cream
  • Nourish Organics Moisturizing Cream Face Cleanser
  • Hikari Lipstick in "Cabarnet"
  • Pacifica 7 Nail Polish in " Red Red Wine"
  • Be A Bombshell Smooth Criminal Powder
So far, I've used 3 out of the 5 products and I have to say, I'm impressed :] the hand cream packs a PUNCH of moisture--though the texture is super light, the nail polish lasted about 5 or so days with minimal chipping and the powder definitely helps with setting my makeup--though its a little messy to get out lol!

At some point, I will try out the other two and post reviews on them as soon as I can.

Thanks for reading and as always, Stay Beautiful!!

UPDATE: I have tried out the lipstick and alone, I dont think it looks too good on me :/ but im not gonna give up on it just yet! I may try adding concealer on my lips before applying the color or using a liner ro fill my lips in. We shall see! As for the cleanser, I plan on trying it out after my current cleanser runs out---which is soon--and reviewing it then!

Review: Nubian Heritage African Black Soap

Hello, all! Happy new year to everyone!! I came on to give my review on the second out of the three soaps I received from Nubian Heritage---the African Black Soap. Price: $4.99 on NH website and at the Vitamin Shoppe (5 oz size) Specs: This soap claims to be  acne-fighting,  detoxifying and healing.  Also, it was designed for people with   combination, oily, sensitive, and problem skin  , however it has been said that people with ALL skin types can use this as well :) but, back to the specs. Like I mentioned on my review on the Shea Butter soap , on the container is a brief history about how Nubian Heritage got its start and the ayurvedic properties about the key ingredients--which for this product line is shea butter, oats, aloe, palm ash, plaintain peel, tamarind extract and vitamin E. Palm Ash, Tamarind & Plantain Peel--soothing properties ; minimizes the appearance of superficial skin imperfections Oats--brightens and evens skin tone ...

November Favorites

Hello, my loves! Welcome back & if you're new here, welcome! I can't believe that I'm here with my November beauty favorites!! Like the year is legit almost  done. 31 days left before 2018 makes its grand entry. I do have quite a bit this month, so if you're interested in learning all about my  favorites for November,  then just keep reading! SKIN/BODYCARE Eco Tools Konjac Cleansing Sponge : so great for helping spread my cleanser more evenly on my face versus using my hands or a rag! I've also noticed that it has helped my skin be a lot smoother, too! Shea Moisture Superfruit Complex Body Lotion : such a thick, hydrating lotion !! Only thing though is I would change the packaging--maybe opt for a jar instead of a bottle because it's thicker that a traditional lotion, but thinner than a body butter. Nip & Fab Kale Fix Protecting Shot : my skin has been more balanced lately since incorporating this oil!! Since it's colder, my skin tends t...

Makeup Colourpop Element of Surprise palette : this is probably one of the most unique palettes I own! When I first saw it, I had no interest in picking it up, but when I saw it in Ulta & swatched the shade Rayon, (metallic dark coral with blue-green duochrome) I fell in love!! I never thought I'd love this palette, but I'm pleasantly surprised! Colourpop x KathleenLights Dream St. Palette :  another great option for a few pops of color + neutral shades! Unlike the Element of Surprise, this one is more a warm toned color scheme .  Also, I...
