Nailene.. Part one...

In case you didnt read my last post, I was contacted by a Nailene/Revlon representative to test some of there products and blog about them. The first item that I tried is:

Nailene, So Natural glue on nails:

This is what you get: 24 nails in 12 sizes, a glue stick, a manicure stick and a buffer.

After going through the nails in the package and sizing them to my nails. I went a head and glued them on. Don't they look professionally done?.. My best-friend's thought so..


This is what they look like on all ten fingers



I wore these glue on nails for 7 days. And I must say that I was surprised that they lasted that long without ever having at less on nail come off. I honestly cant remember the last time i used press on nails, but after testing these out I will be using them more often. They do cost less then the acrylic nails and I can say that they look even better then the acrylic ones.
This is what they looked like after seven days.... And I did everything with them. I washed my car, cleaned my house, washed my hair 4 times within that week, I also did laundry and they still looked great. I recommend this product to anyone who asks and trust me they are worth the price.

Tres & Pan

I went to Target looking for need products to try on my hair.. Due to the heat wave that has been on going in New York, I decided to just wash my hair and leave it at its natural texture: CURLY... I found these two new products and I decided to give it a go....


The first one is the Tresemme: Flawless curls, Curl hydration. I actually like this product. It doesnt leave my hair dry nor hard and it doesnt flake. Once I wash my hair and condition it, I take this cream and spread it throughout my hair. Makeing sure that its spread evenly throughout including the ends. 




The next one that I purchased was the Curly hair series spray form the Pantene Pro V line. This is a new product, it "untangles and conditions your curls for improved manageability".  BUT I personally don't like it. It leaves my hair hard once it drys which is something that I am trying to avoid. It does have a great smell though. 




If you know of any good products that are out there for curly hair, please fill feel to let me know...

BIKRAM YOGA

One of my best friends and I decided to try Bikram Yoga. We have done regular yoga in the past and wanted to see what Bikram yoga also known as hot yoga was all about.  Throughout the month of July 2010, a lot of yoga places are offering special package deals for all beginners. It can range from 10 consecutive classes for $20.00 to 30 classes for $30.00 (which is a GREAT deal).


What is Bikram yoga?  
Bikram yoga is a 26 posture sequence that was developed by Bikram Choudhury from Hatha yoga. Hot yoga has been proven to work every part of your body. Providing all your internal organs, veins, ligaments, and all your muscles everything they need to keep them healthy and in maximum function. Each posture caters to a different part of your body. 


Bikram yoga is practiced in a studio that is kept at a 105 degrees. The "studio" in Bikram is referred to as the "torture chambers". The purpose for hot yoga is that it helps flush away all the waste products & all the toxins of all the glands and organs of your body. It also brings nourishment to every cell in your body so that they can perform there function and keep your body healthy. Throughout the class you will sweat (some more then others) but this is good. This means that impurities are being flushed out the body through the skin.


The 26 posture series:


All 26 postures are done twice. Add two breathing exercises to that and you have a Bikram Yoga class. 


Enjoy

Eyes Lips & Face (ELF) along with Rimmel London



These are the ELF products that I purchased @ Target over the weekend. They had some items form  the professional line one sale from $3. to $1. 



Front --^


Back --^

I was looking for a pressed powder because the one I am currently using is almost done. I have read some good reviews on Rimmel London products so i decided to give it a try. I got this one because it has Shine control (very important especially now in the summer). I also got a great deal on this, it was buy one get one free.. And so far Im loving it. 


^--Always good to us a primer when using eye shadows. Even though this was only $1 it works just as good as my Urban Decay Potion Primer. 


So I'm new to the eyeliner business and I didn't want to spend so much money on an eyeliner without me knowing how to apply it. So I got two  "waterproof eyeliner pen" from the ELF line one in Coffe and the other in Black. They are awesome. They are gel tip and depending on the pressure you us will determine how thick your line will be. 


Brightening Eyeliner.. I havent tried this out yet, but I will let you know how it goes.


These are the three eye shadow palettes.


 Matte Mauve. Its a neutral palette. You can us this one for an every day look to work, school etc. I really do like this one.

Lining Silver. Nice evening colors. They do have shimmer so if you don't like shimmer you wouldn't like this one.

Luxe. This is my favorite one. I love love love the colors. They go with pretty much all my summer dresses. It does have shimmer to it, but its not that bad.
