It's Almost Over Victoria's Secret Semi Annual Sale

It's almost over! 

The Victoria Secret Semi Annual Sale AKA The SAS END ONLINE TODAY! 

That doesn't mean your to late to shop in store. Some stores still have inventory left that is marked down to the lowest you will see. I know my two local stores Chapel Hill Mall in Akron Ohio, and Summit Mall in Fairlawn both still have bra's left and quest what they aren't half off, they aren't $19.99 they are down to $14.99 a bra. Yes the selection is limited but the prices are to good to pass up. 

I scored 4 bras at my Chapel Hill store that were gorgeous at that cost. If you have survey coupons now is the best time to add to your savings. I did! 4 bras in my local store were $14.99 each so $60 plus tax after $10 off survey about $50 and some change. That's less than the cost of one bra at retail! 

SAVE SAVE SAVE Ladies! 

I did take the time to post my Victoria Secret Semi Annual Sale haul and YouTube beware its a 2 parter!

Dinair Personal Pro Unboxing Video & First Impressions

Dinair Personal Pro first Impressions... 

Tuesday January 15th my Dinair Personal Pro was delivered I was over excited all day awaiting for this little beauty to show up at my door when I did open it I was a little disappointed at some product had leaked. Before I did anything I reached out to customer service and didn't receive and instant reply as I had hoped. 

Dinair is rated #1 in the Airbrush business for their customer service they do have live chat, skype sessions, they can be reached by phone and have a facebook fan page. I tried live help as I have dealt with live help before and although the wait is long you usually get an answer to your question within minutes of the live chat rep entering the chat. I kept getting disconnected not due to my Internet connection but due to problems of Dinairs. I than reached out on the Facebook fan page posting photos of my leaking products as posted below and was asked for my email address. Days later I did not get an email but a call from a rep who asked me to pack up my leaking foundation to return it and that they would send out new. I got a shipping notification a few days ago that shows new product has been sent  . I will do good on my part and return the leaking foundation when the new arrives but that's not to say I didn't use it because I did I wasn't going to wait days to test my Dinair I wanted to use it ASAP! 

So what did I think? 

I won't lie at first I had a love hate relationship with my Dinair Personal Pro System I thought why the heck did I sell my Luminess Heiress System for Dinair Personal Pro. My Luminess Heiress was light weight it did what I wanted it to do and was simple to use. My first time using my Dinair Personal Pro was a not so enjoyable experience I did fine airbrushing my foundation I didn't need to use the training rings as I had experience from my Luminess Heiress. I thought to my self if the foundation was such a breeze so will be the shadow like it was with my Luminess Heiress. WRONG! I had the hardest time with the adjustable speeds to find a speed that worked right for me. I chose to use my darkest shadow of purple I got in the Bridal Set thinking I would create this amazing smoked out purple look it didn't happen by the time I was done my face screamed HOT MESS! I quickly found my MAC Cleanse Off Eye and Lip Remover and took every bit of makeup off and told my self I HATE MY DINAIR PERSONAL PRO... 

After I got through the pouting stage I told my self I knew their was a learning curve with airbrush and the adjustable speeds was different for me so I needed to take the time to get to know my system. I gave my self on last chance that day and felt like things couldn't of gone better. I did leave the Deep Purple Shimmer alone and chose to use Blond from the Brow Filler Collection mixed with Bronze Rose to create a taupe-y purple color that I mainly used in the crease. I highlighted below the brow using Vanilla and did just Blond on the lid. My shadow blended effortlessly the shape wasn't perfect but wasn't horrible either all in all I loved my makeup and do love my Dinair. 

After using the Dinair Person Pro 

For those considering and Airbrush System since Ive had both the Luminess Air and the Dinair Personal Pro I would like to take the time to compare the two to help those seeking out which is best for you. 

Budge Wise: Luminess Heiress Wins $99 at www.luminessdeals.com the Dinair Personal Pro was $199.75 I did get my dinair on special for $169.75 plus got the free blush kit

Shipping Time: Dinair it took less than a week between my order being placed and it arriving it took the Luminess Heiress almost a MONTH! 

Customer Service: Dinair both systerms do have a 1yr warranty. Luminess can be contacted via phone or E-mail (They use to have live chat) Dinair goes out of their way to really help their customers even if you do get a delayed response. 

Battle of the Makeup: Who makes better makeup? I wouldn't say one is better than the other when it comes to quality both companies have good quality. Luminess is higher in price so even though your getting a cheaper system the money you will spend on cosmetics will be astronomically higher than what you spend on Dinairs cosmetics. Dinair offers a large variety more so than Luminess they have an amazing color range and size range starting with quarter ounce bottles going up to bottles larger than one ounce. Quarter ounce bottles are under $15 including foundation shades and the largest bottle they sell is $25. When purchasing makeup through Dinair I would say go small for shadows and large for foundations these are water based products they don't go bad like traditional makeup. 

What System would I recommend: Both! it really depends on an individuals needs if you plan to use your system daily and use it for more than just foundation that its worth the investment to spend more money on the Dinair plus I like Dinairs cosmetic range way better! If you are going to be the type to use airbrushing just for special occasions and be non committed go with the Luminess as at the price and product you receive its great for those who want to do airbrush makeup as a hobby

What were my results like with the Luminess Heiress: Here is a before and after

No Makeup - Luminess Ultra Foundation - Luminess Foundation & Shadow

My First BzzAgent Campaign!

Finally I was sent my first BzzAgent Campaign I couldn't be more excited!

The first campaign I received from BzzAgent was the BIC Soleil Savvy Razor not only did I get the razor but 4 refills and a stack of coupons to share with my friends all for FREE!

Can't beat free right?

Since receiving the BIC Soleil Savvy Razor I have tested and say I like this product it was a great product to try for my first campaign. Lets start with the overall design of the BIC Soleil Savvy Razor its Pink and White such a girl color the actual razor is comfortable to handle and its a 3 blade system. When it comes to usage of the razor it works flawless I have such a close and smooth shave with no irritation. I was really happy that it came with refills so it will be a long lasting product for me I will get at least 2 months usage out of this razor. After reviewing the product I wanted to research it and see how much it ran in store I took a trip to CVS where I seen the same razor with 4 refills for $7.49 not bad that's the average cost of razors of this sort whats nice is the $3 coupons will take them down to $4.49 I would like to see them a little cheaper with coupon and I'm sure I can if I find the right sale to use the coupons in conjunction with.

Overall props to Bzzagent for the free BIC Soleil Savvy Razor for review its awesome! 

Happy Mothers Day / What I Got

Happy Mothers Day!

I know I'm late making this post but I hope all Mothers out there had a wonderful Mothers Day! I sure did and got very spoiled.

I got gifts not only from my boyfriend and daughter but my mom also. All of them decided to shop at my favorite place Coach.

I will start with what my Mother got me. My mom knows I love perfume and never have to much! She knew how much I loved my Coach Legacy Perfume that she went ahead and bought me the Coach Signature Perfume this smells heavenly! She did leave the invoice with me in case I wanted to return or exchange the perfume and she was able to get this set on sale for $47 and some change its over a $100 value mom loves a great deal like me!

My Boyfriend and daughter got me 3 gifts. One was the Coach Floral Applique iPad Case I LOOOVE this I had to emphasize that. I've been wanting a Coach iPad case since I got my iPad but I haven't been to interested in the prior designs the came out with. This one is perfect it has the khaki signature with small floral details and gold rivets its so cute and chic. They also got me the matching Tech Accessory Bag I am undecided if I will actually use this for my camera or if I will use it as a small makeup bag none the less I will be sure to use it.

The third and final gift I got from my boyfriend and daughter was the Coach Poppy Flower Perfume set this is the newest perfume Coach has released and I have to say I really like this one I can't wait to wear it. I'm glad both my perfume sets came with lotions as I like to layer my fragrances for a longer staying power.

Once again Happy Mothers Day to Everyone!



Subscriber Gifts Thank You Victoria

I've been on YouTube for over a year now I've found many great friends along the way and have became super close to a select view. One of my Subscribers Victoria knew how much I love candles and tarts and scent me a few goodies. I couldn't of been more excited to get this package. She got me a small jar candle from Tyler Candles I've never heard of this company but they are awesome I must say this scent she chose was Pineapple Supreme and its divine! She also sent me 2 Grapefruit Tarts, and a Pink Sparkle Polish from the Wet N Wild Line. The polish is too cute and will be gorgeous over some hot pink polish for my toes I can't wait!

Thank you Victoria!
