Quick Pick Me Up Face Mask


What are they:


$1-$2 Mud/Gel masks available  at most drugstores. They come in multiple colors, smells and functions. While some are face brighteners, others are hydraters, pore cleansers, and even "anti-aging"

What do they do: Rehydarte the skin and help bring it back to life and are just fun to use.

Do they work: HECK YEAH! (Some better then others depending on your skin and needs)

Why do I love them: Because they are so darn cheap! Pop one of those packets and BAM within 20 minutes your face will thank you :)

Final Word  of Advise: If you are a product snob, then I'm sorry this might not be for you because lets face it, a home facial just isn't the same as a professional one. HOWEVER, if you're like me and don't mind trying out new things, go pick up one of these delicious  smelling face packs and give them a try :)

MINI REVIEWS/ SWATCHES
Packaging and product is a wanna be dupe for NARS Laguna/Orgasm. Don't know if it really is, but on my light/medium skin this looks great :)
Just the right shade of bronzer and really nice blush
Top to Bottom:  Hypershine Gloss in Joy, Shimmer Lipglos in Inspire and Fantasize
Really like the colors, the top one is a really nice transluscent type of effect but hate the brush on applicator. It's supposed to look  and work like the Stila lip thingy majigers, but it doesn't. The middle one is a really nice baby pink that I actually really liked and the bottom one has a nice sheen affect, but the once again the doe foot applicators were so flimsy, they seemed like they would snap.
Left to Right: Light Pink, Mint Cream, Coral Dream, Dark Navy, Party Peach
The light pink is invisible, the coral dream is a gorgeous creamy orange, the mint cream is a long distant relative of For Audrey by O.P.I, the party peach is a neon red-orange (more orange) and the dark navy is....dark navy :)
Top lipstick is Classy bottom is Charming. Classy is a wanna be impersonator of the MAC Viva Glam Nicky/Gaga Family and charming is a great neutral coral color for me because it is just a few shades brighter than my natural lip color
(Epic swatching and photo taking skills at their finest ladies and gentlemen:)

All the shadows are very glittery/frosty and require a good base. Expect a lot of loose fall out because they are loose pigments, but the color pay off is wonderful and they are very blendable/wearable. Would look AWESOME on darker skin :) (Sidenote: these were all "free" with ELF's 10 mineral shadows for free promotion)

Left to Right:
Sweet- A soft baby pink
Elegant- Cream colored, great for highlight
Bronzed-Reddish/Brown bronze
Trendy-Gorgeous Mauve
Wild- Earthy brown tone
Glamorous- Deep pinky plum color
Wild-combo of mauve and purple
Earthy- gorgeous earthy green....LOVE
Royal-Blue
Dreamy-teal

Ya'll I am having so much fun playing dress up right now, I can't even explain :)  More detailed reviews will be coming up shortly as soon as I am done playing :)

And for the ladies who commented on my blogs, I am so sorry if you did not receive my responses, I did write them, but then like a turd face I deleted them all by accident, so please feel free to leave the comments again and I will respond :) 

Have a great weekend!!!
