LAQA & Co. Fat lip pencil Review

I am so thankful to get to try out the LAQA & Co.  Fat Lip Pencils. I have been eyeing them for quite some time. When I saw that it was available thru Birchbox I was even happier since I had a lot of Birchbox points to use up. Fortunately I get to try it thru Birchbloggers and tell you what they are like. 

 The Full size is Wolfman
The lil Mini duo is Lambchop (lighter) and Pinkman (darker)
First I just have to say the packaging is incredible! I love cute packaging and that is what I liked about it first. Then came to look of the colors. I thought they were going to be like a simple lip balm, but I was very wrong. The color you see on the Lip pencil is the color you will see on your lips, a very pigmented creamy lip pencil. It it only needs a very light application to get a lot of color. (with the exception of "Wolfman") They are very rich, silky in texture and moisturizing to the lips. The lasting power is long lasting for the bold colors and leaves a tint behind when worn down. 

These are available in the Birchbox shop. The Lil Lip Duo is $18 and the full size is $18. There are 5 shades available in the Birchbox shop. From a light pinky-nude to a bold bright red.

Purex® Fels-Naptha Review and Giveaway

So for me this is a completely new product. What is Purex® Fels-Naptha? It is a laundry bar that works overtime to remove your toughest stains

I had to do a little investigating about this product since it was completely new. It is definitly not a new thing though. 

Purex Fels-Naptha can be used for the following: 

1. as a pre-treater by wetting clothes and using the wet bar to rub on clothes and sit a few minutes before washing
2. for heavy soiled clothing, do the same as above, but use a soft brush to work it in then wash

now I don't think it is indicated for this, but a subscriber on my you tube channel (inspiretodream3) told me that she uses this to dry up poison ivy. Pretty impressive

I am actually loving just having the bar in my dryer. The scent is quite strong so it make my laundry area smell so clean and when the dryer is on the warmth from it make it permeate the air. Don't worry even when you use it and wear it down it still smell great!

For more information check out Purex.com and their Facebook Page and there are many giveaways there too. 

I too have a nice giveaway for  winner for the same as the picture above. You will love that it is extremely clean smelling. 3 WINNERS!

Purex provided a free sample of their product for this post. My participation is voluntary and my opinions are my own. The coupons will be sent out by me.

New PONDS BB+

Visit http://www.facebook.com/ponds and click on the Meet our BB+ and vote for my video!! Thanks!

 I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try out the New PONDS Luminous Finish BB+

I was not big on BB creams, but this one had a pretty decent coverage for any BB cream I have ever used. I am loving the fact that with continued use the "Tone Perfecting Complex" can and is actually fading my dark spots on my face. I still have them, but it is diminishing for a fact. I want to keep putting it on at bedtime too just to have it on my face all the time to speed up the process. 

The great thing about BB Cream and in this case BB+ is that there are multiple benefits with this one product.

per product description 

Unique pigment system is designed to immediately conceal imperfections for natural-looking coverage

• Visibly reduces the appearance of dark spots to even skin tone in two weeks
• Superior* coverage of imperfections
• Superior* visible dark spot reduction
• Superior* non-greasy feel with a matte finish
• Tone Perfecting Complex formulated with:
  • Vitamin E Acetate – an antioxidant known to protect and repair skin
  • Glycerin – helps increase hydration
• Brightens and hydrates with lightweight moisture
• SPF 15 protects against harmful UVA/UVB rays
• Hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic
• Reduces the number of beauty and skin care products required during a daily beauty regimen

*POND’s® Light Shade BB+ vs. the top-selling BB Cream.

There is no need for moisturizer, SPF or primer. This does all 3 steps in one and more. If you have some significant spots you need to cover you will need to conceal, but if your skin has minimal imperfections this will be a great product in one easy step. It is better than a tinted moisturizer and better than other BB cream I have used in the past.
