I am a member of deals and steals on cafemom.com, and someone posted this wonderful site.

Lacura skincare system

Hi girls...and boys!!

It's been a moment many many apologies!!!! We've been busy!!! Here's the latest!!
Are you looking for an inexpensive skincare line? Lacura!!!



It's apparently all the rave in Europe, and finally here.

I'm a huge fan of Kiehl's Ultra facial moisturizing lotion. Truth be told, it's the only face lotion that I've used for the last year. I paid $60 for the large size...and it's honestly lasted me this long. I only use about a dime size daily, and it's about half gone. LOVE it!!! But still, figured I'd give this a try. I've been using the whole line since the weekend and love it. I have very senstive skin, and have not had a blemish pop up yet!! That alone is enough for the thusfar. My skin has had a phenominal glow about it, and I'm very happy. I'm going to give it a go for about 30 days. Here's what I'm using:

- Hydrating facial cleanser
- Hydrating facial toner
- Hydracomplete face lotion
- 10Q night cream
- 10Q restorative cream
- Moisturising eye cream
- Exfoliating peel gel (love it)
- Ultra firming mask

The whole line cost me only $40!!!!!! Imagine!!! I switch up the daily creams and also use the peel and the firming mask every two days. I'll keep you posted and of course put up pictures!!!

Enjoy my loves....ooo wait, the website...because you can only get this at your local Aldi!!! Cut and paste this into your browser:

Wednesday, February 18, 2009

What's the latest in inexpensive cosmetics??

Hey girls...and boys. The answer to the question is Jesse's Girl.

No, it's not brand new, but it is to some. Robin picked up a couple of the Sparkling Eye Dusts from her local drug store a couple of months ago. She was completely blown away...she actually compared them to MAC's pigments. Can you imagine? Me either. One of her earlier looks was actually done with Jesse's Girl. Check out the post entitled " ".

So...here is their product line-up for eyes:

Eye Dust - 21 shades available. Were alone for light coverage, or add water or mixing medium for more dramatic coloring!!


Eye Lites - 15 shades of liquid shadow availible in glitter and creme formulas.


Single Pan Shadows - 5 sumptuous colors availble.


Creme Eye Shadows - 6 creme smooth on colors available.


Eye Liners - available in 7 glitters and 8 khol formulas.



Tri-Shadows - 3 gorgeous colors in one, available in 5 tri-color compacts.


Bulls-eye Shadows - 3 coordinated colors in one, 5 shades available.


Sooo...we just placed a big order for most of the items above. Come back and check for some looks. We're working on a retail agreement with Jesse's Girl, so look for her on our ebay page!!!

You log on during a particular sale date...click on the particular sale button within the allotted time (usually 24-72 hours), and shop your heart out. Please be aware now, these sales don't last long, and sometimes, there may only be one size for each item...so it's a first come, first serve basis situation.

Now, here is my advice to you.
1. Visit the sites and peruse.
2. Sign up for the e-mail list so that you will know when all of the sales begin, tell em' I sent ya (ajannasmom@yahoo.com).
3. Set a reminder for yourself...like five minutes before the sales are set to begin.

Nine West Warrior Sandals!!

Hey girls...and boys!!

So, if you're like me, you love shoes...sandals, high heels, cute espadrilles, boots, just the whole gamut. If you're even more like me, you have a big, fat foot!! I wear a size 10 wide. That's nearly impossible to find, so I usually try to settle for an 11, and swim a little. It's good for comfort as well, if I'm going to be out all day (swelling is not cute). Nine West is one of the select few that offer a 10 1/2, which is usually perfect for me. If you have a moment, take a look at their new Warrior Sandal!



How freaking adorable is that?!? Purse isn't half bad either, right?

Can't you see yourself on the sidelines in your gold lame toga and these fabulous duds...just waiting for your beau, Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions (better known as Russell Crowe from Gladiator) to whip someones butt and whisk you away to some wheat field for a frolic?



LOL...yes, I have issues...but seriously, check out ninewest.com. They've got it goin' on. Jamil and Kentaro listed below are both under $100 bucks and are available from a cute little women's size 5 all the way up to a women's size 12 (that's a men's 10 for you sexy boys that gotta have em'). What are you waiting on?? Get ta' shoppin'!!






Til' next time my loves...

XOXO

A couple of insider tips...

Hey girls...and boys!!

So...as I am sure you can guess, Robin and I went to the mall this weekend...yes to the MAC counter at our local Nordstrom. And to our sheer surprise...as we descended the escalator...HELLO KITTY WAS THERE!!!! OMG!! Who knew??? Of course we went crazy...between the two of us, we are out of at least $450. That's easy at MAC, right? So...run out to your local MAC location, or call to verify, Miss Kitty may have made an early surprise visit. As you know, she will fly off the shelves. There were a couple of lip shades that were already sold out when we got there.

*****UPDATE 2/10...MISS KITTY IS ONLINE @ MACCOSMETICS.COM!!*****





BTW...I just found out something new as I googled the elusive 214 MAC smudge brush (which I found...that info to follow), I found our that Nordstrom sells MAC online...imagine...also...guess who's there??? Miss Kitty....hurry!!!!

Now, on to that dang smudge brush!!
We've been to the MAC counter, to maccosmetics.com, and of course to my new found nordstom.com. No freaking 214 brush. I've gone to ebay...of course they want a million bucks for it (ok...$30) plus shipping, and to two of our favorite private online sellers (we'll share that info later), and to another of our favorite sites...specktra.net (for MAC junkies). NOTHING, NADA, ZERO, ZILCH...What the heck is it about this dang brush that has it flying off the shelves???? Not sure, but I will let you know, because I found it. Ready for the locale?



Dillards.com!!! Who knew that the department stores had contracts with MAC to sell online? We've learned something new kiddies!!! When your favorite MAC item is sold out online, and in stores, check nordstrom.com and dillards.com. If I find any other sites, I'll be sure to post.

Happy shopping!!

Bare Escentuals Buxom Betty

Hi girls...and boys, Robin and I were out at the mall last weekend, and stopped by Sephora. I had gotten their latest mailer, and was really excited about Buxom Betty by Bare Escentuals. It's an adorable little 'all you need' kit for a sexy 'Betty' look. The kit contains 7 mini products to enhance your sexy.

- Clear Radiance All-Over face color
- Silk Stockings Eyecolor
- Stilettos Liner Shadow
- Big Tease Mascara in Blackest Black
- Big & Healthy Lip Polish
- Feather light Brush
- Contour & Detail brush

It's absolutely adorable!! It's an easy, toss in your purse and go item.



And at $42, it was a steal for a complete look!! I'll post it for you as soon as I've completed it...

XOXO
-D

***UPDATE****
Ladies and germs, as you well know, I am of African-American decent, thus, have dark skin. This set is for those with light skin. Don't get me wrong, it's still a fabulous find, but the all-over Radiance face color is not for all...enjoy kiddies!!!

Mascara Review

Hey girls...and boys!! I'm a huge mascara junkie!!! It's disgusting. I own over 60 tubes and counting. I know that you are supposed to throw them away monthly, but I have a logical reason as to why I don't. I RARELY use each one. I figure since it's not getting the pumping action and the bacteria from the air, and my eye daily, I should be ok...right? Well, I haven't had any issues yet (don't try this at home kiddies)...so I figure I'm ok. For you though, I would suggest that you toss your mascara after 3 months if you are using it daily (if it lasts you that long).

Anyhoo, here are some of the many mascaras that I own...I've done them on a naked eye, no makeup or powder to add to the fullness effect. Ever think about that? You're coating your lashes with powder from your shadows and from your pressed powders, giving your lashes a preverbial base coat.

Do they do what they claim? We shall see...here we go...enjoy!!!

XOXO

Enormous Lash? Well..we'll see....




I was given a sample of the Enormous Lash today while at the Mall. This is supposed to be one of the best eyelash/eyebrow growth products on the market...
Here's what the company says about the product...

ENORMOUS LASH Eyelash Enhancing Serum
Now every woman can have super-long, luscious and
absolutely sexy eyelashes! This mind-blowing eyelash
conditioner will make our lashes look like "falsies". Apply
every night to the upper lash line for unbelievable results.
Mile-long lashes are the hottest new beauty trend out there,
and like everything else from Beauty Society, Enormous Lash
creates dramatic results for much less than the competition.
Works on eyebrows too!



I have the teeniest, tiniest lashes ever....I've taken a before photo and..I will take a pic after 30 days so we can see some "real" results. Both photos will be posted with no retouchig and no other products applied...let's see what happens...

Featuring MAC Aquadisiac Eyeshadow..
