New Self-Tanning Products

Happy Friday, Everyone!  This week went by so fast for me...it seems like it should be Wednesday.  Don't get me wrong, I'm happy happy happy that it's almost the weekend.  It is supposed to be cold this weekend though.  It was 85 degrees here Wednesday and yesterday it was freezing.  I'm ready for some sunshine, already! 

But until then, I will get my spring "glow" from the amazing bronzers that QVC has offered lately.  I bought this one about a month ago when it was their Today's Special Value.  It is the St. Tropez Bronzing Mousse and it came with 2 mitts.


I did some research at other places to compare prices before purchasing and I have to say, QVC had the best value.


Verdict?  I've been known to use some self-tanners orange, smelly lotions in my day so I'm really picky when it comes to self-tanners.  This one was different.  Besides being my first time trying mitts, it went on very smoothly and streak-free.  It doesn't stink like a lot of self-tanners do.  Well, let me back up.  Most of them smell as soon as I put them on.  This one didn't.  BUT, I did notice that "tan" smell the next morning.  It's not supposed to smell so maybe my body just has a weird reaction to self-tanners...who knows!

I used this 3 days in a row when I was first testing it out and I definitely looked tan.  I didn't have any streaks.  It goes on a bronze color so you can see where you've already applied.  I made my husband promise I didn't look orange and he said I didn't.  So if he's lying, he gets to walk around with me while I'm rusty orange.

I signed up for auto-delivery to get another bottle of this in 6 months.  I'm really glad I did because it's my new favorite.  It's still available on QVC.  Just go to their website and search "St. Tropez Bronzing Mousse" - they also have many other St. Tropez products available.

I'm also thinking about ordering their Today's Special Value today.  It's the Josie Maran Argan Glow Self-Tanning Body Wash.  A self-tanning body wash?  I'm interested.  It also comes with an applicator and two mitts and you can sign up for auto-delivery for this one as well.  Check it out here.

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Loving Lately: My Discovery of MAC Cosmetics

I am 29 years young and I have JUST discovered MAC.  Yes, it's true.  I have apparently been living under a rock.  In a bubble.  Something!!  I ran out of foundation this weekend and decided to give it a try.  And O.M.G. I am so glad I did.  Ok - here are my face issues... 1. Oily Eyelids - eyeshadow creases within an hour...not fun. 2. Oily Face - makeup disappears and the shine is outta control...not fun either!! 3. Acne Scars - the dark spot kind...ugh!  4. Acne - why do I have acne at 29???  It just isn't fair to have to use acne treatment AND an anti-aging cream!!  I went to the MAC counter with absolutely no makeup on whatsoever....I was not lookin' pretty!  They were having a special event to market their "after hours" collection  and there was a model there with her husband who is apparently a famous NBA basketball player from the LA Clippers.  I guess I should've gotten a picture bu...

TRIA Hair Removal Laser

Ok...I'm just going to jump right into this.  Let's talk about hair.  I'm not talking about the hair on your head that you want people to see and love.  I'm talking about the unwanted hair that you loathe and want noone to see!  Embarrassing subject?  Yep!!  I have a medical condition called PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome) that has many, many side effects that makes it extremely difficult to get preggers but that's another subject we won't get into right now.  One of the most annoying effects being facial hair!!  There, I said it.  Since high school I've had to deal with this embarrassing situation.  Back then, I hated it and I would cry because I thought I was the only one dealing with this.  Now that I'm older (and wiser), I can laugh about it.  And the more I talk to people about it, the more I realize women everywhere are dealing with this "lady with the beard" issue.  I seriously could join a circus, people....
