Dr. Scholl's for Her ~ High Heel Insoles

I am super excited to try these insoles!!  Since I'm wearing more beautiful clothes, I am wearing more beautiful shoes!  Designed for shoes with heels 2" and up, they are guaranteed to provide immediate and long lasting comfort.  The cushion shifts pressure off of the ball of the foot and the slim design is said to not make shoes feel tight.  Clear in colour, they can be used with the most strappy of sandals.  As soon as I step out in my FabuStep Gel inserts, I will report back with a full review! Have you used or are you using Dr. Scholl's inserts? Which ones? xoxo •Nancy-Lee These insoles were provided to me for my honest review because #ImABzzAgent

My May Beauty Army Kit Marched Home

We are so spoiled aren't we?  Beauty Army is able to share such amazing samples in phenomenal sizes and this mont h was not a disappointment.  As you know, I pay for my own Kit and I choose my samples, just like you.  I want the Beauty Army Experience and my membership allows me to feel the same emotions that the other members feel; from frustration to elation. What could possibly be frustrating, I work for Beauty Army?  It took 5 months for the Shea Terra Organics Bananas & Baobabs whipped moisture cream to pop up in my Selection Window!  That's right FIVE months!  haha!!  What other treasures did I treat myself too? • Institut Karite Rejuvenating Hand Cream • Indie Lee The Body Wash • Weleda Refining Toner • Marco Pelusi Leave-in Conditioner • MamaMio Tummy Rub • Shea Terra Bananas & Baobabs Moisture Cream Are you a Beauty Army member?

pur Mineral Tinted Moisturizer

I was so excited that I received this in Light since the most common shade is Medium.  Makeup samples are very expensive to create, so I understand why a company would go with the median shade - more ROI!!  Designed to be a 4-in-1 moisturizer, primer, foundation and SPF 20, this Mineral Tinted Moisturizer is from purMinerals - a brand I am not familiar.   I squeezed out way too much the first time; it is a thin product that goes a long way since you need a very small amount . It went on very easy and stayed smooth and pliable until it was blended but it never really 'set'.  I felt beyond dewy, I felt very greasy even after dusted with Lancome's translucent loose powder. Perhaps a dry skin would love the constant hydration.  It would work well blending cream/gel blushes and the light coverage evened out my skintone.  I personally felt as though I was wearing a non-prestige mask of foundation, especially after I saw the transfer to my iPhone.   This deluxe sized sampl
