Perfectly Posh: Lil Snarky hand creme

I was given this sample from Chrissy Poust at Perfectly Posh.  I love Perfectly Posh.  It's a paraben free company, and their stuff is amazing!

This hand creme works really well!  It makes your skin feel like silk.  It has a very nice scent as well.  It used apricot, and I am assuming that's what the main scent is (although I would have guessed rose).  I am not a person that wears a lot of scented things, so the scent was a bit much for me.  However, it is very nice.

Book Review: A Desperate Fortune

Susanna Kearsley is one of my all time favorite authors!  I was able to meet her shortly after this book came out.  She is as wonderful in person as her writing is.

This book follows the traditional style of Kearsley's featuring a dual timeline plot.  Her writing is extremely descriptive in a way that makes the reader feel like they are there.  However, this book was a bit different.  This book featured a main character with Aspergers.

I loved that she tied in something that is considered a disability in most people's eyes, and made it a strength in this book.  It showed how those with Aspergers think differently, and are very gifted in some areas.

All in all it was a very sweet book.  I loved the dual timeline, and I feel in love with the characters.  So much so that when it ended I couldn't decide if I liked the ending.  I just wanted to book to continue.

I really feel like Kearsley out did herself with this book.

Cutex One-step Pads



In my Target Beauty Box this month I received the Cutex One-step pad advanced revival nail polish remover.  It just so happened that I had worn lacquer this week in addition to my Jamberry wraps, and it needed to be removed today.

I love the idea of polish remover on the go!  I am the type that if my polish begins to chip, I will pick at it or bite my nails.  So having these is handy to have in a purse!

I was pleasently surprised that these did not dry out my nails like some polish remover.  In fact it made them feel softer after I used them.

The felt that they are made of makes for simple removal of regular lacquers.  Two nails on each hand had a glitter top coat on them.  They required me to add acetone to the pad in order to remove the glitter.

Overeall I was happy with this product, and would consider re-buying them.  I do not recommend them on any polish with glitter.

Hey Honey take it off Review


I am not much of a fan of peel off masks.  They always seem much to abrasive for my skin.  However, when I noticed this sample in my stash I decided to try it.  I was originally going to use a mud mask, but decided on this instead.


It had a thicker texture than I am used to for peel off masks. It felt like a thicker version of honey (go figure).  It took about 15 minutes for it to fully dry before I was ready to pull it off.  

I look horrible, but this was right after application
 It peeled off a lot easier than I expected!  It was wonderful!  My skin feels so nice and soft!  This is for sure going on my wishlist!  You can find more about the product here. 


Instagram Auctions

I have a ton of samples/beauty products that I won't use. They are either the wrong color for me, or they have something in them I am allergic too.  So, I opened up a new instagram account to hold beauty auctions.  Before I can have an auction I need to have enough followers to make it worth while!  Go follow!

Pay Pal only will be added to the rules.  

I will be listing what will be auctioned off here too when an auction starts


















Perfectly Posh Pink Putty





My final product that I purchased from Perfectly Posh was Pink Putty.  It's a peppermint foot mask.  I have never done a foot mask, so it was a little unusual for me.  I was afraid to move with it, and afraid if I walked around after it dried I would have foot prints everywhere.  That wasn't the case those.

It is a very nice cooling sensation when you put it on.  It was a nice peppermint scent, and wasn't at all overpowering.  It was a lot like what you would expect from a facial mask, but for your feet.  I loved having the mud on my feet!

When it was completely dry it because a chalky color.  It didn't take long to dry at all.  I left it on for about 10 minutes.

At first it seemed to dry out my feet.  However, the next day I did notice that my feet didn't feel as rough.  So, I guess it worked, but it isn't my favorite product.  I probably wouldn't buy this again, but it is nice for the moment.
