EXCITING NEWS

I'm super excited today because I have a very important package coming in the mail! Can't wait until I get to open it. AND I'm planning on filming my first youtube video tonight (hopefully). YAY! stay tuned for pictures and follow me on instagram @hilary0515 for even more makeup-y things.

Hair Care from Sallys

Alright guys, I was trying to save a little cash at the time so I picked up a few things at Sally's because I was in desperate need of a leave in and a heat protectant and when I walked into Sally's there was some kind of special when you bought two one was free or something like that. So here is what I think of these Beyond the Zone products. 

Smooth Criminal - Hair Primer

This product doesn't say directly that it is a leave in but it was pretty clear by the description. It says "Creates the perfect foundation for styling by detangling, smoothing the hair shaft, taming frizz and providing thermal protection from dryers and styling tools." 

I have to say I really like this product, I can definitely tell the difference in my hair both after I started using it and it becomes immediately apparent when you put it on your towel dried hair. I would say go for it. It retails for $6.29 when you have a BCC (beauty club card).

Turn Up The Heat - Heat Protection Serum

It's pretty straight  forward, just a serum with heat protection. I'm not really my favorite serum and some days I skip it and use the Silkening Gloss from Kenra when I get to work, so I would say pass unless you just need a cheap serum. It retails for $6.79 with your BCC.

Rock On - Volumizing Powder

This was just an extra that I picked up because of the deal and I wanted to compare it to the Big Sexy equivalent. It does work, but it feels gross in your hair because it adds texture to give you the volume. I like it and its nice to be able to "fluff" your hair throughout the day to add more volume. It retails for $6.79 with your BCC.

I know it has been forever!

I know I said I would post before but 50 million things seemed to happen all at one including my husband deploying and having to order a new charger for my mac book because mine mysteriously disappeared. But, I have regained control of my life now and things are really looking up, I have had some new opportunities open up and I can truly say I am happy, the only thing that would make it better were if my husband were home. I love you babe! I have some posts to work on for you guys and I promise this time you will be hearing from me soon.

Long Time No Post

Sorry for the delay in my post but I have been tring out some new products and I want to be able to give a nice review. So until next time, which will be soon, have a beautiful day.

Beauty Blogger Official!

Well guys I finally did it! I have everything up, running and linked! I think it's safe to say I'm an official beauty blogger, obviously I don't have many followers but you have to start somewhere right? I even set up a youtube channel so I can start making videos and I played around with iMovie today to figure out the basics on how to get my videos edited. I'm so excited that I am finally at a point in my life where I can do all of these things and just hope that the public is accepting. I'm sure I will have people asking me why I'm doing this or telling me it is a waste of time, but it is something I am passionate about and enjoy doing. So here goes nothing. When I make a video and get it posted I will share it on here and my social media sites. I don't have a Facebook as of now because I decided to keep that private  as I keep in touch with my family and friends and post personal things on there. If any veterans are reading this and have any tips I would really appreciate them. Have a beautiful day guys and follow me on Instagram and Twitter @hilary0515 for both.

Sad Day

I'm just a little upset today because I reached pan on a couple of my favorite products. Yes, that is my newer NYX Stay Matte Not Flat Powder Foundation. That is because I absolutely love that stuff. It isn't cakey and it really does keep me matte all day. The other product is a Smashbox palette that I have had for a while but it is definately one of my go to palettes. I got it in a box set from Ulta a couple of years ago so I'm not really sure if they even make it anymore but the colors are beautiful. I hope that your cosmetics are never ending. Have a beautiful day.

NEW BRUSHES!

I'm so excited about this you guys. I got this MAC/Sigma knock off set on ebay for only $11!  I ordered it because of the price and I figured if they totally sucked it wouldn't bee a big deal because they were so stinking cheap. Let's just say I'm amazed at the quality. They are super-duper soft and honestly look and feel like professional brushes. They have MAC markings and numbers on them which I obviously know are fake. I am going to look at MAC and see if the numbers on my knock off brushes match up with the real deal. Like I said I'm definitely surprised at the quality and so happy about my purchase. I would check it out if you are like me and on a budget. Have a good day guys.
