NYC New York Colors IndividualEyes Custom Compact
This all-in-one compact comes with everything you need for a complete eye look: primer, illuminator, applicator and complementing shadows. The colors were surprising pigmented and with good makeup brushes would take little use to achieve good color pay off. The price for this palette is $4.99, which I think is a great deal for a whole palette.

Kiss Ever Pro Lashes Starter Kit
Complete kit comes with eyelashes, adhesive, and applicator. Glue is latex-free and is reported to last for 24 hours!! This amazing starter kit is only $5.99!

Bath & Body Works Mini Candles
There isn't much to say but I LOVE B&BW candles, especially this one, which is in the scent pumpkin cupcake. I also own the large size candle because I love the scent sooooo much! It's a nice mix of pumpkin and vanilla. Super yummy and will definitely get you ready for eating pumpkin pie! The mini candles only cost $3.50 and have the same long-lasting, strong scent as the larger candles. Perfect for a small room!

EBOOST
EBOOST will boost your mood, focus, and immunity with natural ingredients and no crash! Seriously sounds perfect as I am a nurse and I need all of those things! For a box of 20 it is $28 & $39 for a box of 30. 

Goody Simple Styles Spin Pin
The biggest trend right now are the top knot/ballerina bun and it can be so difficult to achieve. These new pins replace the old fashion bobby pin and make it so much easier to great a perfect updo!! This set only cost $7.29!!

Not Your Mother's Smooth Moves Frizz Control Hair Cream
This helps smooth and fight out of control hair and reduce style time with coconut and silk extract. A full size bottle of this cream is $6.00!

Overall, I'm very happy with this VoxBox. Remember if you would like to receive FREE boxes of products to review check out Influenster today!! Let me know what you think of all the goodies I received. Anyone tried some of these products before? Do you like them?

Summer Nail Polish Trends + Nail Art Contest

Hey everyone! Hope your summer is going well. I don't know about all of you, but where I live has been having record weather, with temperatures in the 100's and high humidity. yuck! It has been making it almost unbearable to be outside. Although this has just given me the excuse to stay inside and paint my nails. This summer I have come across some new (or at least newer to me) nail art trends, plus my favorite colors for the season. Here is what I think are the summer nail trends!! 
Neon polishes have been an ultimate favorite for me this summer. The nail polish collections I'm completely obsessed with are the Orly - Feel The Vibe & China Glaze - Summer Neon Collections. These collections have the best neon colors!! Pastels are also still popular this summer, which collections like Essie's Summer Collection. Ombre & Gradient have become universally popular from ombre hair, ombre clothing, and of course nails! The nail art isn't all that new, but is very popular this summer, especially tribal. 

I decided to do my first ever nail art contest! I'm super excited and I hope you all enter! The rules are relatively simple - Paint Your Nails!! lol. Ok... there's a little more to it. For this nail art contest entries must include at least one of the nail trends mentioned. Send the entry to my email pinktattoo.mail@gmail.com and I will confirm your entry. On August 11th I will placing an album up on my Facebook Page. After all entries are put up voting will begin, but not my me! Actually voting will be done by all my fans on Facebook & of course everyone is welcome to promote their entry to gain more votes. 
I hope you all enter the nail art contest! I look forward to seeing your entries!! If you have any questions feel free to ask!

Summer Beauty Influenster VoxBox

Hey everyone! So I'm really excited to share what I received in my Influenster Summer Beauty VoxBox! Unfortunately, I missed out on the Spring one, which had tons of great things in it. BUT! This box was just as exciting!! Just incase you don't know what Influenster is, here's a little recap!

Quaker Soft Baked Bar in Banana Nut Bread
This yummy bar is made with real bananas and almonds. It contains 5g of Fiber, 20% of your daily value of vitamin B5 and 6g of protein. I wasn't quite sure if I was going to like this bar, because one I'm not a huge fan of granola bars & two I also don't like nuts. As you can tell though, I ate it!! haha! I actually was so hungry I ate it before I could take a pictures, so here is a nice shot of the wrapper. opps, sorry! I have to admit I didn't have high hopes for liking this bar, just because of my own preference. In fact though, I LOVED it! I completely tasted like banana nut bread! I kid you not! I could not believe how fresh the banana taste was. I would definitely check out this bar! It retails around $3.29 for a package of 5 bars and is sold at most major retailers.
Sally Hansen Nails and Cuticles Hand Creme
This hand lotion is made with shea butter, which helps to soften hands, smooth cuticles and condition nails. It claims to have an active moisture complex formula with Cermaides that help lock in nutrients so hands maintain their ideal moisture level. It even claims to offer 24 hour moisture and last through hand washings!! With my love for doing nails and my career in the health care field (frequent hand washing - dries out hands), this hand lotion is a favorite!! The lotion is a very nice consistency, which I enjoy because shea butter can sometimes be too thick. The lotion has a very pleasant scent, may like an orange/dreamsicle smell! The full size of this product is $5.99 and can be found in most drug stores and mass merchandisers such as Target or Walmart. 


Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Color
Super new and a hot nail trend right now! This polish allows you to create a gorgeous 3-D nail art effect in just seconds! It is so easy to use! Once the a thick layer of nail polish is applied the cap to the nail polish bottle which contains the magnet is held over the nail. After just 10 seconds you get the really cool effect seen above! I had been wanting to try this out for awhile now and am so glad I got my hands on it! I would totally recommend to nail polish! I would be extremely fun for younger children, under supervision of course! This polish is a little more pricey being around $9.99, but in my opinion TOTALLY worth it! 


Tampax and Always Radiant Collection
Tampax and Always have come together to premeire the all-new, stylish Radiant Collection, a complete offering of premium tampons, pads, liners, and wipes that meet all of a woman's feminine care needs. I could not believe the cute little "clutch" all the products come in. I plan to just through the whole thing in my purse, because no one would ever know! I think this would be a great starter kit for a girl, especially with the clutch. Everything about this collection is cute and it makes that time of the month a little more bearable!! 

Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Lotion Sunscreen SPF 30
This sunscreen contains ultra-luxurious hydration silk ribbons, which help to nourish and pamper skin while providing broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection. I was very impressed by this sunscreen. I normally hate the smell of sunscreen, but this lotion has a very light coconut smell that is very pleasant. I really like the feel of the lotion and is perfect for this outrageously hot summer everyone is having!! This retails for $8.99 and is available in SPF 12, 30, and 50.

Overall, I'm very happy with this VoxBox. Remember if you would like to receive FREE boxes of products to review check out InfluensterInfluenster today!! Let me know what you think of all the goodies I received. Anyone tried some of these products before? Do you like them?

  2. I love martial arts. It is the only thing that really grounds me.

  7. My lucky number is 6, because I seem to remember being extremely lucky at the age of 6. I learned the other day from a Tibetan girl that the age 25 is suppose to be very unlucky for girls. Can't wait... ugh. So I'm going with 25 as being my unlucky number!
