Ceramika Hair Straightener Review + Pictures

You want a hair straightener that goes cheap but gets the job done right? The job meaning straightening & curling Well I found one that does it all. I have a Conair one which cost me around $60 I mean it does work. Works pretty well actually but it can't style, curl or create waves. So I bought a cheap curler which was around $20. It's a drugstore one by Revlon. But I got tired of having to switch all the time I just wanted one that would style & straighten. I decided to chance it & buy one from Ross. It was really cheap so I was kind of skeptical but I paid for it & went home. First I tested if it got hot & it did, The I straightened a strand & it came out shiny & straight. I was so amazed & happy! Then I took another strand & curled it. It came out so cute & wavy plus it was still shiny & no frizz. I was so happy that I made this awesome purchase for an awesome product. IT'S CALLED A CERAMIKA PRO! & I ONLY GOT IT FOR $20. Plus tax of course but yes $20!!!!! I'm so happy. It heats up to 410 degrees & has a turning "switch" which you can change the heat to a lower degree. Also an on & off switch. It doesn't have a ready sign or no lights turn on to tell you its heated but it does just take about 15 seconds to heat up. Also another con is that the groves at the end get super hot so I can't hold the tip to really tighten the straightener on to my hair but it still straightens super good. So don't get discouraged. =) Remember always use a heat protectant. I use Tresemme's heat protector. It's inexpensive & smells SO good! Here are some pictures of how my hair straightener looks like!

This is what I was covering in the other picture because I wanted to show it last. lOl! =) Told you $20 at Ross. Try it out!

Makeup Drawers/Collection

This is my top/first drawer. I put my eyeshadows in this drawer. The one in the very front has 2 more under each side. Those are The Color Workshop eyeshadow I mentioned in The Color Workshop Shimmer Powder post. Go check that out if you want my first impression. =) There's ELF, Estee Lauder, other generics & pretty much just cheap stuff. I don't need expensive stuff. =)

This is my second/middle drawer where I put all my pencil type stuff. Liquid liners, mascars, lipsticks, lipgloss, Jane Gel Eyeliner, shimmer powder from The Body Shop, primer, lip liners, etc... just other stuff in that range. If you see anything you want me to review just let me know.

This is my bottom/3rd drawer. I put my face products & tools in here. Not well organized but it works =). There's ELF, Covergirl, Hard Candy, Clean & Clear, Estee Lauder, NYC, The Color Workshop & Revlon. See anything you want reviewd just ask. =)
Thanks so much for reading my blog/post. Don't forget to check my Advice Column page. =) Please & thank you.

BR Palette Review + Pictures

This was also a gift. So I don't know where to get it & how much. I think it's like a generic or something but it works pretty good. I don't think it's pigmented but it still works okay. To me this is worth at least Max: $12-13. Thats just me. I still use it though because it does get the job done. So I'm not complaining. It might be on ebay or amazon, not too sure.

The Color Workshop Lipsticks + Pictures

PLEASE ASK IF YOU WANT SWATCHES. =) LIKE I SAID THE COLOR WORKSHOP HAS NO NAMES SO I CAN'T SAY WHAT'S WHAT. ALL YOU CAN DO IS EYEBALL IT & SEE IF THEIR THE SAME COLOR. SORRY, BUT IT REALLY ISN'T MY FAULT. Thank you.

Estee Lauder Pure Color Lipstick "Sugar Honey & Pinkberry" +Pictures

The pinkberry is a very nude color. I really like it. It doesn't really draw much attention to my lips with a crazy bright color but it still puts color. A cute color at that. The Sugar Honey is also very simple. Its shimmery so I barely use it. Only at "fancy" parties. ha ha. I still use it though. As you can tell these are the older versions. If you look on their website the whole appearance is way different. I didn't buy this seperate though. It was a gift my mom got when she purchased her Estee Lauder Beautiful perfume & she doesn't really use makeup so she gave it to me. It didn't dry out my lips but it could be because I used my Vaseline Lip Therapy beforehand.

Hard Candy 1000 lashes Mascara "Brown" Review + Pictures

This is around $6 I believe. I like it cause it puts a brown tint so I like it. I don't think it really lengthens or puts any volume but the colors nice. Sometimes I use the Maybelline first & add this at the end. They have these in other colors which is nice. I think there's one in green & blue & other colors ike that. Find it at walmart. =)

Maybelline the Falsies Volume Express "blackest black" Review + Pictures

This can be found at walmart for about $6. It works pretty good. It doesn't really curl my lashes which sucks cause I like them curled & my eyelash curler sucks so I was hoping it would get the job done on its own. My lashes do look a bit longer though. But I still use it so it works for me. The brush is made with a curve so its suppose to curl but it only does the minimum so whatever. I need to find one that will. My search continues.

Wet & Wild coloricon Brow/eye liner "Black & Dark Brown" Review + Pictures & Swatches

I don't recommend this. It's too rough. You have to push hard just to get the color to show. I use the brown one for my eyebrows because I find the black to make my brows look too dark. It's for your eyes & brows but I use it just for my brows. I think I got it for $0.99 Pretty cheap right. =) Bought it at Longs Drugs. There are better drugstore eyeliners though. So I prefer you to pass on this one!

ELF Under Eye Concealer & Highlighter "glow/light" Review + Picture & Swatches

I think there's other colors but its been a long time since I bought stuff from elf so for that I'm sorry! The concealer works alright. It doesn't really cover much but its okay. The highlight has slight shimmers to it so it works good. I use it sometimes but not often but I tend to use the concealer the most. I think this is just a dollar if not its probably 3 at the most. =) The product is kind of runny so I like it. There's lots of product so its worth it.

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil "Milk" Review + Pictures & Swatches

I love this jumbo pencil. It's so creamy & feels silky. I can use it for so many things. Highlighter mostly. It's very easy to blend! Just make sure you blend it good because it will crease otherwise. & the pencil is pretty long so it can last a long time. NYX of course has many other colors. What's your favorite colors? Their pretty cheap to like around $3. Bought this from Longs Drugs or you most likely can find it at Wal-mart!

Jane Be Pure Mineral Gel Eyeliner "Black" Review + Pictures

This is the very first Gel Eyeliner I have ever tried & I feel in love. I love this eyeliner. It works real well with that small slanted eyeliner brush. I have good control over where that brush goes.The brush is also soft and easy to wash. I would highly recommend this. Its in black. Sometimes I have to go over it a second time just cause I really like my liner dark! There's also a lot of product in it. So it goes a long way. I tried looking on the walmart website but I'm sure you can find it at walmarts store. If there's a better gel eyeliner please comment it below because this is already good. Imagine if there's a better one. ha ha.

Hard Candy Sheer Envy Tinted Moisturizer "Tan" Review + Photo

Okay I use this product daily. I let the product slide down the bottom just to show how much product I've used. It's not oil free which sucks because I'm already oily but I just use my clean & clear blotting sheets. It doesn't really have good coverage but it evens out my skin tone which I like & need because sometimes there's redness in my cheeks. I recommend it because it doesn't hide your skin it pretty much just evens it out! =) The end result is good but if your oily I don't recommend it unless you have blotting sheets other than that if you like that dewy finish go ahead & try it out. I got this at wal-mart for about $8. You can also buy it on wal-mart's website.

E.L.F. Warm Bronzer Review + Pictures

This is E.L.F's Warm Bronzer. I got this awhile ago so I don't know if it's still the same. They might have improved it or something. Anyways there's 4 different colors & I'd use a brush & swirl it all together and apply it to the hollows of my cheeks. It works good. I barely use it though because I use my elfs clarifying powder. =) There's a mirror so you can put it your makeup case and when you want a touch up just pull it out. It's from their studio line & only $3.
