Influenster - ImPress Manicure Voxbox

Hellooo there!

I have recently been chosen for the Influenster - ImPress Manicure Voxbox Canada and thought that I would do a review on it. Now, this is the first time that I have ever, Ever bought press on nails. So, to begin I had received two press on nails in D030 Holla! and 130 Control Freak. Between the two I actually prefer Holla! as I am not really into hot pink nails.

Though this is my first time trying this I was quite impressed as how easy it was to apply. Find nails that will fit on your fingers, peel off the sticker on the back and press on. It's as easy as that! As well removing the nails are quite easy too. Another thing I liked about this is that they come in a variety of colours as well as designs that are suitable for your taste and that they come with 24 nail covers in different sizes! As for how long it will last, it will depend for everyone. If you don't really do much then it will probably last a little over a week. Though besides the pros of the ImPress nails, I would probably not purchase press on nails as I didn't really like the feel of it on my nails (probably because this was my first time). Guess I should stick to painting my nails instead.

As for any cons of the product, the only downside for me was that even though the nails were availiable in different sizes they all didn't quite fit my nails properly.  :(

Thanks for reading! Catch you in my next post!

[Review] YSL - Le Teint Touche Eclat

Hello! I wanted to post a little review on my new favourite foundation that I have been loving for the past two months. From the title it's the Yves Saint Laurent - Le Teint Touche Eclat foundation. I am an NC20-25 in M.A.C. foundations so I picked up the shade BD40 from Sephora. 

First off, I absolutely love the packaging! The gold packaging makes it look very high-end and sleek. Like other foundations it contains 1 fl.oz (30ml). What I also love about this foundation is that it comes with a pump which is very hygienic. According to the box this foundation is an "illuminating foundation, dimensional radiance and weightless perfection."

 When applied the foundation feels very light weight, moisturizing, as well as it being a natural coverage. The foundation itself is quite runny with the texture being kind of gel-like. However, what I didn't like about this foundation is that it is not well suited for oily skin as you will need to keep blotting your face down which I don't really mind. I typically have a combination type skin dry in the winter and oily in the summer. This foundation has a slight scent to it but nothing too over powering.


Thanks for reading, see you in my next post!

Memebox 5 Review! - Korean Beauty Box

Hello! I'm back with another post for you! So I have stumbled across a Korean Beauty Box called "Memebox" and this is my first beauty box ever! What Memebox is, is that it is not a beauty subscription box that you would have to opt out at the beginning of the month. You are able to choose when and which boxes you would like to buy whenever (if it's available). Each box contains a minimum of 4-8 products. I was not sent this for review purposes but actually paid for it on my own. Each box cost $23 plus $6.99 for shipping. However, once you sign up you would automatically get 5 points which equals to $5 that you could use towards any purchase on their site.

I am quite impressed with Memebox! Through the month of February I have noticed many changes to their site such as adding a number queue for people when they are sending them messages as it would help them organize their emails that they are receiving accordingly. They have also started with a "Superbox" in which it contains full sized products that are from Korea. There are different editions such as the makeup edition (Superbox 2) and their newest edition hydration (Superbox 3). The prices for the superboxes ranges and contains a minimum of 4 products. I have pre-ordered Superbox 2 as well as Memebox 7 so I'll let you know when I receive them!

Let's get into what's in Memebox 5th Edition! Everything comes in this cute pink box which was wrapped in bubble wrap and placed in a hot pink bag that says "Memebox" on it. I was kind of surprised as the box looked a lot bigger in pictures but is actually quite small in person.

Anyways, when you open the box, all the products are nicely placed inside and the top of the box will say "Get it Beauty by Memebox" as well as their website. It also comes with a card indicating what product is what, as well as the price of the full sized items.

I actually haven't tried any of the products yet so I can't tell you if I like any of them so far. However, I am quite disappointed in this box as it didn't catch my eye as the previous boxes did. I forgot to mention above that some of their boxes offer points back but some don't as well as some you are able to upgrade to express shipping and some not. For this box as well as the Memebox 8 I was able to upgrade to free express shipping.

Check out http://us.memebox.com/ for more info.

Anyways, if you would like me to do a review on any of the products above let me know! See you in my next post.
