Wowzers!

I have to say THANK YOU for all of your support. I have not blogged recently because I have received mailbox after mailbox of products that I have been testing out these past few weeks. Just to name a few of the goodies that I have had the pleasure of trying out: hair care from Carol's Daughter, the eye brush set from EcoTools, the Love & Happiness kit from Love&Toast, a bubble bath, compliments of Tokyo Milk, and I just received my August Birchbox today so the list continues. So, check back soon and I'll have the latest and greatest on these products!

Hello Kitty inspired nails

I don't paint my nails often because it does not pair well with motherhood, but I was really feeling in the mood to do something awe inspiring. I love Hello Kitty, I always have and I had bought a pack of Hello Kitty nail decals for my daughters during my last Sephora trip, but they wanted me to use the Sephora Blasted nail polish instead of the decals. 

So I decided to use the decals. These are the Hello Kitty Modern Icon decals for $5.00 at any Sephora store and at Sephora Online and I also used some flower nail decals that I found at my local Sally's Beauty Supply. 

You can use any base coat of your choosing but I've always had great results using the Sephora by OPI base coat, quick drying drops and top coat. The nail polish that I used is Strawberry Fields (716) by China Glaze.

How to get the look

1. Apply your base coat
2. Apply your color
3. Let your color dry: you can do this anyway you like,
but I'm always on a time crunch so I use the quick drying drops and
make sure that they dry

4. Apply your decals anyway you want.

5. Apply a top coat and let it dry

It's pretty simple. Obviously if you want a more uniform look, you can use the same decal on each nail or the same type of flowers or just the Hello Kitty bows. Remember, b.e.e creative & dream. If you have a look you want to share with me. Send me and e-mail and I just might feature your look on the blog.

Much love, 

Eunice

Birthday season!

July is a hectic month in my family with 2 of my daughters, myself, my father-in-law and my brother all having birthdays! This does not include cousins, nieces, nephews, best friends, etc. BUT you get the picture. With all the festivities and summer travel I'd like to present one of my favorite "all-purpose" beauty products. Philosophy Vanilla Birthday Cake. It is a shampoo, shower gel and bubble bath ALL IN ONE. It smells amazing and it feels great on the skin. It makes packing easy. Just throw it into your travel bag and go!

EcoTools Preview

I perused the EcoTools website trying to figure out what product I wanted. I already had the 6-piece brush roll:

• Blush Brush
• Concealer Brush
• Angled Eyeliner Brush
• Eye Shading Brush
• Lash & Brow Groomer
• Hemp & Cotton Case (Room for both brushes & makeup essentials!),

two(2) foundation brushes and I couldn't decide if I want a bath product or a body care product or more brushes. I was indecisive because I wanted to use my coupons to the maximum amount allowed--$7.99. 


Eventually, I came to my senses and jumped in the car and headed to Walgreens, it was the furthest out of all the stores that carried EcoTools so I figured I would wander store to store looking for the perfect deal and if I didn't get a good deal, I'd eventually end up back at home.


 Surprise! Surprise! Here is what I found:

Green, Clean, Go Travel Set

Sustainable Softness Body Lotion

Clean Skin, Cleaner World Body Wash

6-piece Eye Brush Set

The travel set and the brush set I got for FREE. Thanks to the coupons sent to me from their "Choose To Live Beautifully" recycling campaign and the lotion and the body wash happened to be on sale. I'll post reviews in a few days to let you know what I think of the different products!

Much love,
Eunice
