Review: Hello flawless from benefit

Image
Hello beauties, I hope that your all having an awesome day. I have a review for the Hello flawless from benefit. It came with two different colors: Petal and Champagne This is a brightening makeup that is oil free with an spf of 25 It leaves the skin luminous and healthy looking It helps to boost cellular respiration for plumping up effects It protects against environmental stresses It contains vitamin C and E derivatives that are known to prevent signs of aging My thoughts: I love both of these shades. They are more of a liquidy product. Both shades are light to med coverage. You can build them up. Last all day. I didnt have any problems with wearing off or fading. Look just as good as when i applied it in the morning. Ulta does have this for $36. http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?productId=xlsImpprod4170001 Sephora have this for $36 http://www.sephora.com/hello-flawless-oxygen-wow-liquid-foundation-P305701?skuId=1393917 peace and beauty l

Review: Palmolive soft touch

Image
I got this from Influenster to review. All opinions are my own. Its the palmolive soft touch. I got the vitamin e and the aloe. I did give the aloe to my sister in  law. I love this stuff. It really doesn't make your hands dry like some dish liquids. My family has used this as well and they all said that it makes their hands so soft and it smells so good.    It also works great at cleaning your dishes, leaving them sparkling clean, Works great on grease and its soft on hands. I want to get the coconut butter next. Check out the links  below for more information: http://www.colgate.com/app/Palmolive/US/EN/HomePage.cwsp#softTouch  http://www.influenster.com/review/palmolive-soft-touch Go to your local walmart and get you a bottle of this stuff Check out my video below peace and beauty laurie ann

I got a couple of things and wanted to share with you. Lets take a look                                             This smells so amazing. Its coconut oil with gardenia.  I have used this several times on my hands since getting it. This  really helps with the dryness. I did order this from Amazon and was about $12.                                            I also picked up the Maybelline bouncy blush in rose petal. It is about $7 from  walmart and it had a $2 off coupon on it as well. Great deal.                                           In this look i am wearing  the blush                                           Here is a swatch of the blush. I do like this for a light natural look. Have a great day
