Emergency and Camping Flashlight and Lamp!! What a name

Hello Everyone,
I have also posted a review for this item on Amazon. Check it out here
I really loved the emergency camping flashlight and lamp I received over the weekend. It is light weight and is not only a solar powered light source but also a potential battery back up for your phone! If you want to charge it ahead of use, you can use the included usb charging cable.
This item is super easy to use and as hurricane weather comes to head in South Florida it is becoming increasingly more important to have supplies already purchased.
I have used this while hanging out with friends in a dark backyard and can say it does a reasonably good job of illuminating the area. Definitely would recommend, especially for it's current price.

Again, its super cute and folds up into a very convenient 2" tall form factor! 

The Solar Light can also be found at http://thebrightoutdoors.com which is the companies web page! Amazon prime shipping is always awesome too :) 

There isn't a whole lot more to say on this item because I have not been able to completely run down its battery to know how long it lasts. 

Until Next Time,

Urban Decay B6 Complexion Prep Spray

Hello lovelies!!

Welcome back, I hope you had a wonderful week. Today I am going to be talking about a product that has been out forever but I recently rediscovered my love for it. The Urban Decay B6 Complexion Prep Spray has been sitting on my vanity for five-ever, but I recently started using it not only before my foundation but on my beauty blender type sponge to moisten it before buffing out any streaks. It makes this super easy to do without removing half of my foundation trying to achieve a flawless finish. The spray is super refreshing and makes my skin feel so much better. I generally dampen my entire face with the spray, let it dry most of the way then start my foundation routine. If parts of my face seem to dry, I just spray a little more. 

Just like all the previous Urban Decay skin sprays this product was designed and manufactured in conjunction with the brand Skindinavia. They are one of the first companies to really capitalize on high quality facial and makeup setting sprays. Their basic makeup setting spray is amazing and you can count on the same amazing performance and quality in all of their collaborations with Urban Decay. 

As Per Urban Decay: 

Give your skin a quick hit of vitamins and calm a multitude of sins. Stabilized vitamin B6 absorbs oil, minimizes pores and reduces redness. Give your skin a quick hit of vitamins and calm a multitude of sins. Stabilized vitamin B6 absorbs oil, minimizes pores and reduces redness. 

It’s one of those products you didn’t even know you needed. (But once you try it, you’ll wonder how you ever survived without it!) 

This scientifically advanced formula contains the first patented, stabilized form of topical vitamin B6, which absorbs oil, minimizes pores and reduces redness. Spritz it on any time of day to hydrate, prep and soften your skin with vitamins and antioxidants. Use it in the morning to prep and “wake up” your skin, during the day to refresh your skin (without messing up your makeup), or at night before your treatment. 

Vitamin B6 helps normalize overactive cell-signaling proteins (called cytokines) to help control oil production, vitamin E provides antioxidants, and willow bark (rich in natural salicylic acid) aids cell turnover. 

This energizing formula feels amazing and is great for ALL ages and skin types. (Trust us, even your boyfriend will want to steal it!) And the more you use it, the better the results. In a clinical study, after 8 weeks of use: 
• Over 81% of participants had a measurable reduction in oil and surface shine.
• Over 78% had more radiant skin with less redness and fewer blemishes.
• A majority of participants had a measurable improvement in pore size.
• Over 72% had a measurable improvement in their skin’s overall appearance.

While I don't know who did their clinical trials, I do agree with all of their claims... Except maybe the about fewer blemishes. My blemishes are never affected by anything beyond acne treatments and regular cleansing, while it would be awesome if this product did live up to this claim I personally did not see these results. 
All opinions expressed are my own, I have no affiliation with this company as of now and I purchased this product with my own money. I am not being paid to say nice things, and if I am compensated in any way it will be noted. All photos were taken from the brands official website unless otherwise noted.

All in all, if you are looking for an easy to use priming spray type product Urban Decay B6 is quite wonderful. My only words of caution would be that due to the microfine mist this spray produces, don't accidentally inhale it! 

Until Next Time,

Knot Genie, the brush I didn't buy for me

Hello Lovelies! Hope these past few days were wonderful!

I would like to introduce a product that I am so totally late on reviewing it is a little bit embarrassing. The Knot Genie as well as its competitor the Tangle Teaser came out a few years back and I just never got around to picking one up. I have medium weight, thick slightly wavy hair and before I started dying my hair more I never really thought about what I was putting on my hair. My hair rarely tangled if at all and anything more than some hand combing was for the luxury of it. But, as I have tortured my hair over the past few years I have found that what I brush my hair with matters more and more. 
Until Next Time,
Glitterpukee!!!!

I purchased the original Knot Genie about a year ago as a gift for my little sister. She has the curliest hair in the world and probably close to being the thickest, when we dyed her hair black it took four ((4)) boxes of hair dye to cover from root to tip!! Well, at some point she became disenchanted with the Knot Genie and I picked up, I have been loving it ever since. The bristles gently massage my scalp, and they rarely have any issues with the tangles in my hair. I love how cute it is in my beauty area , I own the original purple color so its perfect! The ease of use has me picking it up again and again. The bristles do bend a little if stored improperly so keep that in mind. They retail for $19.99 on their website but it is possible to find them discounted on amazon and other e-tailers. I do NOT endorse purchasing knockoffs. 

As per the Knot Genie site: 

Magically gets rid of knots. Not to mention complaining.

The Knot Genie™ Detangling Brush was created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted.  

MORE DETAILS

The magic trick behind the Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ is one we are happy to reveal. It all has to do with the different lengths of teeth on the brush. When brushing, they bend just right, to gently untangle the hair. And because of this lack of stress, the hair's cuticle stays unharmed… revealing the smoothest, shiniest hair you've ever seen. The fact that The Knot Genie isn't like traditional hair brushes goes way beyond the bristle side. Its unique cloud-shaped top fits the palm nicely, whether you're right or left handed. Which means it feels more like an extension of your hand than a grooming tool. And also means the brushing process is far more comfortable, gentle, and most importantly, done quickly. Voila!

To wrap things up, I cannot say enough how much I enjoy using this brush. Sometimes if I am really stressed I will brush my hair with it just for the gentle scalp massage to help dissipate some of the tension. I would definitely recommend this brush to anyone with unruly hair or just wants a cute brush that won't torture their already chemically treated, and in some cases mistreated, hair. Check Knot Genie out and let me know what you think of their products if you have tried them before below in the comments. 

Until Next Time,

Laneige Water Sleeping Mask

    Welcome Back Lovelies!!!       Pretending like it hasn't been a million years since my last post, lets jump right in.Have you heard of Laneige?? It is a Korean Company that is now available at Target as of about six months ago. They have amazing product quality that we have all come to know and love from K-Beauty, with precious packaging and lightly scented products.I recently fell in love with the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask. What in the world is a water sleeping mask? Well, it is a lightweight gel type nighttime moisturizer that creates a film of sorts to protect your skin from becoming dehydrated over night as well as replenish some of the moisture lost throughout your day and cleansing routine. It has also been blessed with something called Sleepscent, which is designed to ease your nightly journey to REM.The brand is also a subset of AmorePacific, a high end brand with amazing reviews.

The product retails for about $25 at Target.com, it may be available for other prices at other retailers! Be careful to purchase the actual item and not a knockoff, we don't know what they put in the knockoffs.  

As per their site: 

Moisturizes and revitalizes skin as if you have had a good night’s sleep for 8 hours!
You probably didn’t have enough sleep due to your hectic schedule.
Even if you didn’t sleep well last night, your skin need not reflect that.
Make your skin appear refreshed and revitalized~

Four advantages of Water Sleeping Mask!

Is your skin getting the rest it deserves? The secret to well-rested skin lies in night skincare.

1. Skin purifying effect: SLEEP-TOX™ technology purifies skin during sleep, keeping it in optimum condition

SLEEP-TOX™ technology’s purifying effects help to rejuvenate and normalize skin that is often fatigued and sensitized by stress during the day. This helps the skin to achieve a well-rested appearance the next morning.

2. Skin moisturizing: MOISTURE WRAP™ helps skin retain moisture throughout the night

The dense beta-glucan moisturizing shield (network) consists of active agents such as Hydro Ion Mineral Water, evening primrose root extract, Hunza apricot extracts, and more so that skin fully absorbs the goodness during 8 hours of sleep.

3. Skin soothing: contains skin-soothing agents that are gentle on sleeping skin, helping it recover overnight

Ultra-mild, safe formula that can be worn overnight / Non-comedogenic, sensitivity tested.

4. Aromatic SLEEPSCENT™ helps you relax during sleep

SLEEPSCENT™ specially developed for Laneige Water Sleeping Mask is an AMOREPACIFIC original, allowing skin to relax and rest and boosting its ability to regenerate.

Look how refreshing it looks in the jar! While it sounds amazing on paper, it feels even better on your skin. The lightweight gel glides effortlessly over my favorite acne treatment which is notorious for pilling under moisturizers. It doesn't irritate my sometimes hyper sensitive skin or make my skin feel tight. It makes me feel pampered every time I get ready for bed, and with crazy schedules who doesn't need a tiny bit of me time each day.  While I cannot speak for it's anti aging abilities, I absolutely feel that I wake up looking a little more rested every time. Whether it is the product doing amazing work or the sleepscent really helping me sleep better, I love it. If you pass by a target, check this product out. It is easy to use and makes the idea of taking off your makeup at night just a little more appealing.

Woolzies (a college students best friend)

Hello everyone! 
I am doing the thing! I would like to share with all of you an amazing product I found while getting ready to go to college. What I didn't know was how much money it would end up saving me. 

Woolzies are wool dryer balls that increase overall agitation in the clothes dryer to allow for a shorter dry time. This means that the terrible dryers that are here on campus do not win the laundry battle! I have heard so many stories about other students using the dryers and having to put clothing back through them more than three times. Not only is it a waste of money it is a waste of energy. With Woolzies the only issue I have ever had with driers is that my clothing is TOO dry! Imagine that, other's laundry comes out wet and mine is overly crisp. Its kind of ridiculous if you think about it. 

Woolzies according to their site: Woolzies are pure handmade New Zealand wool dryer balls that soften your laundry naturally without any of the chemicals of conventional fabric softeners. Unlike the plastic dryer balls, they are PVC free and won’t fall apart or melt on you.  Woolzies save time and energy by cutting down on drying time by an average of 25% per load. They also help reduce static and wrinkles.

Use Woolzies to snuggle up with naturally downy soft laundry that’s completely free of harmful chemicals.  Woolzies are also hypo-allergenic and totally safe for people with wool sensitivities as they will not shed onto your laundry.

Unlike even natural dryer sheets and liquid fabric softeners, Woolzies last for 1,000 loads and are therefore extremely eco friendly. So why risk your health and waste your money with regular fabric softeners when you can save time, energy and money with all natural pure Woolzies!

How much do they cost? About $35. Whoaahhhh says the poor college student, $30???? I can barely afford to do my laundry in the first place! [they now offer $19.99 packs of three]
Well, think about it this way, you do laundry about once a week, for two semesters a year, for four years. If every other time you do laundry you have to put clothing back through the dryer it will cost you an extra approximately ~$1.50. 
Lets do the math, about 30+ loads of laundry a year, 15 of those have to be run twice. So that is $22.50 just in one year. Now, for four years...thats NINETY DOLLARS!!!!!! How does that $30 pack of dryer balls sound to you now? 
Even better, you will be able to use them for YEARS after that, each set is good for a thousand loads, that means when you are no longer living on college campus and your laundry costs are no longer subsidized you can still save money. I only use three in each load because I do laundry every week and a half. I use all six when I wash my bedding. I have NEVER put a load of bedding or towels through the dryer more than once. Even for those who own their own washer and dryer it will save you money, drying faster means you can use shorter cycles and save money on your enegry bill. If anyone's laundry usage is like that of my parent's house I can promise it will make a difference. When you are running at least a load of laundry every two days the energy usage stacks up. 

Although I have an obsession with my laundry smelling clean through the use of dryer sheets, my friends who don't use them noticed that after borrowing half of my Woolzies set their clothing was considerably softer and less staticky. They are marketed as 100% Pure Natural Laundry Softener   . 
Each pack of Woolzies dryer balls comes with six balls, they are safe for even those with wool allergies to use. I am so excited about these dryer balls that I feel like I am coming off as a sales crazed rep. But, I promise I am not. I think everyone should be able to save money. 

Please check out this amazing product?
