Cle de Peau Beaute Eye Color Quad #10

Hi everyone! WOW, this is a seriously gorgeous palette! Quad #10 ($75 for 3g at www.neimanmarcus.com) is a palette with beautiful iridescent shadows. I know what you're all gonna say..."$75?? For a palette?? With four colors??" *throws a chair out the window* "Are you kidding me??" Well i'm not! But it was worth every penny.
The first color is a lovely shimmery brownish taupe and the other 3 are white with blue shimmer, white with pink shimmer, and white with gold shimmer....I DIE! DIE I tell you! Normally my everyday looks are just a brow and inner corner highlighter (maybe a crease color) with liner since red lips are center stage. This palette is very me. I looooveeeee AHHHHHHHHHH I LOVE this palette!!!

Texture: SUPER buttery soft. They glide and blend beautifully and evenly.

Packaging: Sexy and luxurious. I love the dark midnight blue. I do wish this came with a velvet pouch, but it's OK since it's not NARS packaging which really *does* needs a pouch. I even like the sponge/brush applicators, good quality sponge and the brush is actually soft and useful.

                                                          DELICIOUS. *fans self*

Biosilk set

Hi everyone! I just bought this SWEET set today, all 3 for just $24.99 at Target. You might be thinking "Sonia, you're freaking nuts, $25??". But listen hurr, all 3 are 12oz and both the shampoo and conditioner retail for $12.99 each, and the serum for $41.99! I had to pick it up I couldn't believe it. I got this especially for the serum. I'm a huge serum fiend and this is one of the best serums i've ever used (Chi being the 2nd) so it was easy to say yes. The shampoo and conditioner are a spiffy bonus. 

Back of the box

  I can't wait to use the shampoo and conditioner! If I love them i'll have to hunt down the large sizes of them.  Hopefully these bottles will last me at least 4 uses.:P
Shareena asked if I used serums so i'm also including the other serums I use.:)

I got Bioinfusion from Walgreens, and both Citre shine and Silk Works (supposed to be a dupe for Biosilk but doesn't have the same ingredients) at Walmart.

All 3 are amazing, i've used up several tubes. First two are moisturizing and the 3rd is smoothing.

This serum is really really good. 

What are some of your fav serums? As I said before, i'm a serum fiend (also a product junkie) and having the amount of hair I do need an abundance of it at all time. So rec me some, please!  I can't use just one my hair gets used to it. :) And if any of you ever have any hair product questions don't hesitate to ask, I have pretty much used it all! lol  :) Thanks for reading!

May Birchbox

Hi everyone! This is my first Birchbox. For those of you who don't know what it is, for $10 a month (free, yes FREE shipping) you get a box of 5 mid rage or high end deluxe samples. Unfortunately they only ship to the U.S. :( Wish it was everywhere so everyone everywhere could share my happyness.:(
Box arrives to your mailbox every month between the 10th and the 13th. Pretty sweet huh? My sister signed up and since I do everything she does (and vise versa) I had to as well. I signed up at Birchbox and it was pretty simple. Just entered my card and then filled out a beauty profile so they would know the sort of stuff I prefer. I do wish their beauty profile was a little more specific though. In one section it asked what I look for the most, the latest colors, hair product, or skin care product. As you know I am mostly into neutral e/s, not so much "The latest color", so I didn't know what to put. I do like pastels though, cause they can be worn with red l/s!
This month's theme was Mother's Day. Onto the box!

The I chipped off so it says "B RICH BOX" lol.

Rundown of all the products.

Love how everything came nicely packaged. AHAVA mineral hand cream shown here. This is very creamy and leaves my hands creamy.

Full size stila e/s in Wisteria!

BVLGARI Jasmin Noir and Achipelago Pomegranate soap. The soap smells amazing! I have it in a soap dish on my bathroom sink. I loved the perfume so much I'm getting the full size.

My sister's stila shadow in Ebony. She doesn't like e/s so she asked if I wanted it. DON'T MIND IF I DO.

They're huge! Penny for size comparison.

I loved both shadows! Wisteria has blue shimmer, I DIE! Ebony is SO pigmented!

All the products they send in the box are available for purchase on their site, which is pretty sweet. Every box you purchase gives you 10 loyalty points. Also, giving feedback and reviewing each item you got in the box gives your 10 loyalty points per review. 100 loyalty points=$10 off the purchase of a full size product or you can use it towards your next Birchbox. Pretty sweet! So far i'm very pleased with my first box!

Kirkland Moisture shampoo + conditioner

Hi everyone! These products might seem a little lame to some cause of the brand name, BUT don't be scared my pretties, they are actually amazing. Kirkland shampoo AND conditioner ($8.99 for 33.8 oz, for reals!) from Costco? YES. These products were made in long hair heaven. The size is great, they last me a good 3 weeks, which is a lot for me considering my hair is down to my thighs. Both are color safe, vegan, paraben free, gluten free, and have UV protection.

Shampoo: Super thick just like honey and it even looks like it. Sulfate-free yet lathers very very well without stripping hair. It leaves my hair sooo soft and silky feeling. I've used manyyyyy shampoos cause I go through them like Kleenix since my hair is so long, and this is *the* best i've ever tried. From HE to LE nothing compares. I've gone through many many bottles. Lightly scented.

Conditioner: Isn't semi translucent like traditional conditioners, looks more like a white body cream. Lightweight yet very moisturizing. It penetrates my hair instead of sitting on top like other conditioners do and leave it silky and and defines my waves. I usually leave it on for about 3 minutes. Lightly scented as well.

Please do yourself a favor and get these. :)

Sonia

NOTD Avon Sunshine

Hi everyone! I LOVE yellow n/p, so this is one of my favs. The formula is a little sheer so this took 3 coats. Topped it with Sally Hansen Insta-Dri.

Disneyland

 Hi everyone! I went to Disneyland yesterday and I took a few pics so I could share them with you. I started taking lots then I realized I wasn't really getting a chance to enjoy anything cause I was so busy trying to get good pics so I had to stop. :P

Windows from a shop. Pic under this one is from the same shop. Of course *I* loved them.

Vintage items. Love!

Look how my shirt was glowing in the Pinocchio ride! The round thing was a button.

At Space Mountain. It was so windy yesterday that it blew this umbrella right from a food cart and it ended up on the roof. Luckly it landed where it did cause right under it was the huge line of people!

My dream mirror!

Thanks for reading! <333

Tip for dried out mascara

My two fav mascaras ( PF Organic Wear and Sephora Lash Plumper) tend to dry out way too soon even when there's still lots of product left. What I do is I submerge the tube in a mug with warm water for 5-6 minutes everyday (it goes back to how it was before once it cools). It melts the product just enough without affecting it's performance. This also works with clumpy mascaras. Have any spiffy beauty tips to share? Hope you found this tip helpful! <3

Love,

Sonia
