Perlier Volcanic Thermo Scrub from iFabbo

What a treat. Volcanic Thermo Scrub is the first Perlier product that I have tried, thanks to iFabbo . Blue in colour with a fresh light scent, this scrub is formulated with ingredients rich in mineral salt and Italian thermal water. I can feel the different levels of exfoliation but not in a harsh way; In addition to the salt, there is a noticeable powder base that exfoliates on a gentle level. Volcanic Thermo Scrub leaves my skin super smooth, with an even tone and it has a healthy glow. It does not hurt the thin skin areas like my elbows and knees and it has not irritated my body skin or caused breakouts on my chest or back.

Having Rubellite Dreams with Ninja Polish

This is one sexy shade of red. Rubellite Dreams is from NinjaPolish.com 's Gemstone Dreams collection. The red is true, not too blue not too orange, just stunning. It's kissed by silver shimmer that is more obvious in the bottle but offers depth once on the nail. This is not a glittery polish but one that glistens. The pro brush made of an easy, streak-free application and it only required 2 coats for full opacity. 5Free it retails for $9 and lasted 3 full days before the first chip appreared. I can't wait to wear it again! I rate Rubellite Dreams 4.5 stars out of 5. Love love love.

Catherine Malandrino for Kohls DesigNation

It's funny. I received a $25 gift card to Kohls for Christmas 2011 and was a bit perplexed; I've never shopped Kohls. So I waited and waited... thinking I'd end up using it for new bath towels. Then I heard that Catherine Malandrino was joining DesigNation and knew that *this* is why I have been holding on to the gift card, not boring bath towels ! The Pleated Ponte Dress is created in charcoal and is surprisingly very well constructed and heavy weighted. Now, I know why it was $70! The button detail down the left side covers the snap entry/exit which runs down the dress until the pleated bottom. The dress lies flat and keeps it's shape so you do not have to worry about shifting and revealing. Made in Vietnam of 70% polyester, 25% rayon and 5% elastic, the Pleated Ponte Dress is available online, only. Retailing for $70, I waited until it went on sale and pounced! I was a little away from free shipping ($50 after discounts) so I added Eva NYC Up All Night ...

Worth The ChromeGirl Wait

Worth The Wait is a secret keeper. It's not black, it's not brown and its not wine. It's the best of all those shades. I applied 2 coats of Worth The Wait and topped my ring finger with Essie Matte About You and my other digits with ChromeGirl's high shine top coat.

A Simple Stila EOTD

A colourful eye doesn't have to be too bold or too intimidating. I start with Onyx on my upper and lower waterlines . Jaded Jack lines both my upper and lower lashline in a thicker-than-usual stroke so Cobalt doesn't completely cover the vivid green. I was able to achieve a gentle wingtip and once Cobalt dried, I retraced Jaded Jack, almost enveloping Cobalt. Kitten was added from my crease up to the brow bone where I used Barefoot Contessa to provide a soft filled eyebrow. I pulled it all together with 2 coats of mascara and was on my way! Shopping List: •Stila, Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner, Cobalt, $20. •Stila, Kajal Eye Liner, Onyx, $18 •Stila, Eyeshadow, Kitten, $18 •Stila, Eyeshadow, Barefoot Contessa. * discontinued * •Butter London WINK Eye Pencil in Jaded Jack, $18 •Physicians Formula Organic Wear mascara, Black, $10 xoxo •Nancy-Lee
