NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine Review

Through Influenster’s VoxBox program, I also got to test out NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine for free. I got a pretty nude/pink NYC called Nude York City from Influenster. Liquid Lipshine really lives up to its name! The color was great and the sheen was perfect! I really liked the longer than most applicator. It was really easy to put on and not sticky.

Quick Take:
Great color, shine, and easy to put on
Usage Tips:
An everyday pretty gloss to take with you everywhere
The Verdict:
A must have for gloss lovers!

imPRESS Press-on Manicure Review

I also received the imPRESS Press-on Manicure for free to test through Influenster’s VoxBox program.

While I wanted to like it, the color I received, a bright pink (100 Ecstatic Cling) did not match what I usually wear. I tried it anyway for the fit, feel, and look of the nails. The imPRESS Press-on Manicure comes in a cute package and is easy to put on. The directions were easy to follow, as I cleaned my nails with the included wipe. It was a little difficult to remove the peel off plastic inside the nail, but it came off after a few tries. Unfortunately, the smallest nail was a little bit too big for my pinky! I guess my hands are a little smaller than average, so I would appreciate it if imPRESS had some smaller options in the future.

Once on, the nails did feel pretty strongly adhered. It was also not too difficult to take off if you applied pressure to the top. Overall, it was a product I was glad to try, and I hope they make a version that fits me in the future!

Montagne Jeunesse Passion Peel Off Mask

Time to start up this blog again! I was one of the lucky ones to be a part of Influenster’s VoxBox program. I tested out a free pack of the Passion Peel Off Mask from Montagne Jeunesse, made with promegranate and passion flower.

Here's a little bit of information about their products:

"Montagne Jeunesse beauty treats are free of parabens, vegetarian approved and never tested on animals. So treat yourself today to a masque that will hydrate, nourish and leave your skin cleansed, smooth and glowing."

From the picture on the package, I thought the mask was going to be a opaque light purple. It was actually a light red, clear gel that smelled nice and spread easily. I didn't have to use the whole pack, either, so I'm hoping to get one more use of it. :) I put it on after cleansing with the Clarisonic with Boscia's Purifyin Cleansing Gel.

I was a little worried when I got the mask on my eyebrows, but it ended up not being a big deal. The mask pulled off easily after 15 minutes. Though my skin did feel cleaner (the package says deep cleanse, purify, and protect), there were a few spots on my face that felt a little dry. My face felt smoother overall, except for in the dry areas.

Because their products and natural and fun, I would try Montagne Jeunesse again, but maybe a moisturizing mask next time!
