Hi Rubies-

I am back with a post.  I know it's been awhile but I really felt like writing and figured this would be as good an opportunity as any.  I'll try and post regularly....now my idea of regularly may not be your idea but nevertheless, I will try and keep it semi-consistent.

I know that I may be late to the party but I have finally gotten the hang of the liquid lipstick...better late than never :)  I bought a couple a few months ago and they slowly grew on me so I figured now was the time to grab some more with all the brands coming out and all of the new formulas and whatnot.  And of all the brands to choose from, which one did I choose to get my haul????  You guessed it......COLOURPOP!!!!

Now I have purchased a few items from Colourpop here and there from eyeshadows to highlighters to now, liquid lipsticks and I have NOT been disappointed.  The packaging is super cute, the products are consistently good and the price point cannot be beat.  I was initially intrigued with the metallics so I decided to pick up a few of those along with some more ultra mattes.

The colors that I ultimately decided on were:
Ultra Mattes:
Are & Be
CHI
Lumie're 2
Clueless
Stingray

Mettalics:
DM
PYT
Mugshot
Man Eater


Of the ones that I have tried, and I've not tried very many of them, I must say, I really like them.  Lumiere 2 is so far my fav as I absolutely love a gorgeous dusty rose, mauve color.  I have so many of them in my lippie collection that I sometimes wonder why I continue to buy the exact same color.  I've included the swatches below:




















If you are like me and want to "dabble" into the liquid lipstick pool, I would highly suggest the ColourPop brand.  My love of these just may help me branch out into the wider sea of brands but for now, I am content with my little slice of the ColourPop pool.

How I Wore It: Miami Nights!!!






She Tried That: Phytopia Stretch Marks Remover

I received this product complimentary for my HONEST review.

Hello Lovely Rubies.

Today I am discussing Phytopia Stretch Marks Remover. I am going to include all the specs and the link to read more about it and to purchase them.



I've been using this on my elbows and my stomach.  I am going to keep it real and let y'all know that I am not losing any weight and probably continuing to stretch my stomach more.  My elbows are soft and I like how this oil is making it feel.  I mean they really feel great. Now back to my stomach, I see a slight change but I also believe that I am sabotaging the product from doing it's job.

I LOVE THE SMELL!!! This absolutely smell AMAZING!!!

The link to purchase is HERE and some of the specs from the website is below:

She Tried That: Konjac Sponge

*I received this product in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.*
Good evening Lovely Rubies, 
It's me with another She Tried That...this is your warning that I have about 10 more items to review and then I will be finished for a while. I hope you are finding the review informative and that you are purchasing the items. These are some good things especially the Konjac Sponge that I' reviewing now. 
Here are my words from another review: 
I was very excited to try this sponge, I received it in exchange for my honest review. When I received it, it was so hard and I was doubtful that it would get as soft as it did as fast as it did. I thought that I would have to soak it for hours but I didn't. Once the sponge was soft, I tried it. I rubbed it all over my face. The funny thing is I have been watching video about the v peel and while using this on my face I thought about my skin peeling. Good thing it is not the peel because no skin started to peel. My face felt different after using it. It's felt more moisturized and smooth. I will continue to use this sponge and want to review it in about 3 months. Because my skin feel softer I am confident it is going to work even better long term.
Here's some of the description, go HERE for ordering and more information.
  • 100% Natural Sponge,100% Coloring & Additive Free, 100% Biodegradable, Naturally Sustainable
  • Gently exfoliates and cleanses your skin, Perfect for sensitive skin
  • Massage the skin and stimulate blood flow. Promotes Cell Growth
Thank you, come back soon.

She Tried That: Cariloha Bamboo Pillow

received this discounted for testing and review purposes and to give my HONEST review. 
Hello My Lovely Rubies,

I am back again with another posting for "She Tried That!!!"  This is a review for a discounted Cariloha Bamboo Pillow.  I receive this for testing purposes and also to give our HONEST opinion.  I will tell you now that we will give you an honest opinion.  If we like something you will know because it will be in more than one video or blogpost. We will also tell you when we don't like something.  

My post today is about the Cariloha Bamboo Pillow. I received this 2 weeks ago and have been sleeping on it for a little over a week.  This pillow is soft, cool, clean, and green. I like this pillow because it is not too soft and it holds it shape. It's also cool, with all the hot days this pillow manages to not get hot. I usually flip my pillows during the night, I didn't have to flip this but once and I'm not sure if I needed to or if it was just out of habit.

I am in the process of getting my room together for my room tour and this is a great, much needed addition.  I like the softness, the size, the feel.  Here's more details about the pillow from Cariloha's website HERE.
Expand your bedding set with our one-of-a-kind, luxuriously soft bamboo pillows. With an interior and exterior made entirely of viscose from bamboo, you’ll rest your head on complete bamboo comfort. The nature of the bamboo fibers makes it possible for the pillows filling to stay put, so you’ll have less fluffing and enhanced comfort. Being made from one of the most sustainable resources on the planet, you’ll never want to cozy up to anything other than bamboo. The best bamboo pillow in both Standard and King sizes. Pillows sold individually and dry clean only.
Dimensions• Standard: 20" x 28"• King: 20" x 36" (I have the King)
