March-May Empties

Hey, guys!!  So, I'm back with another empties post. I didn't have very many separately for each month,  so I decided to combine March, April and May's together. Just like in my February empties , I will offer my honest review of each product and whether or not I would repurchase.  So, without delay, let's get started! VO5 Moisture Milks Conditioner in Strawberries and Cream: One of the best cheapy conditioners on the market! I've used VO5  since pretty early in my natural hair journey and I LOVE how they make my hair feel!! This one, in particular , makes my hair so soft and plush!! I would definitely repurchase! Naughty & Nice Sweet Seduction Hydrating Body Cream: This as a fairly nice lotion to use----plus the fact it was 60 cents doesn't hurt either!! I was not ashy again after application , but the texture before you apply it kinda threw me off a little (like it was more silicony or oily). But, over all, I did enjoy it. I would repurchas...

April Favorites

Hey. ya'll!! Today, I'm coming with my favorites for the month of April! But, this one will be a little different. I decided to also include other areas aside from beauty----like food, music, books, etc. So, without any further delay, let us get started!!

February & March ipsy bags: ipsylove & Floral Fantasy

Hey, all! Today, I'm coming with another review on two more of my ipsy bags: ipsylove [February] and Floral Fantasy [March]. Now before I jump into the review,  take a chance if you're totally clueless as to what exactly ipsy even is to go check out their website--www.ipsy.com--or the post I did on it back in September  here . Now, review time! : Here's my February #ipsylove bag I received: Modelco Cheek Bulsh Powder in "02 Peach Bellini" China Glaze nail polish in "Marry a Millionaire" Glamglow Brightening Eye Treatment (I actually received two treatments) City Color Creamy Lip Stain in "Flirtini" Luxie Large Angled Blush As always, I give a short honest review about each product: good, bad or in between.  I actually do like the blush on my skin! It gives more of a golden sheen on my cheeks, but it's flattering nonetheless. I was very afraid that it would look too bright or clownish on me, but it does the opposite. ...
