Review: PURE VITALITY BEAUTY 100% NATURAL NAIL POLISH REMOVER    I was super skeptical of the idea of an all natural,  no fume nail polish remover, but there was a special promotion and I wasn't going to pass up a great deal. Pure Vitality Beauty's 100% Natural nail polish remover works!     The directions say to use a dropper q-tip, or cotton ball to dab the polish remover on the nails and let it sit for about five minutes.  My bottle came with a glass dropper,  so I used that and put a couple drops on each nail.  After five minutes I used a cotton pad to wipe my nails.  The nail polish came off!

Even though I haven't played out in the sun nearly as much as I normally do, I have managed to add sun damage to my face. A large part of that might have to do with my pregnancy hormones making me more sensitive to light (even though I swear I wear sunblock). But after using this product for three days I immediately noticed my skin looked smoother and felt more supple and less dry.  My sun spots were starting to l...

"Unicorn Glow" box by Wet n Wild: REVIEW & SWATCHES!!! I heard about the existance of this glorious treasure trove of beauty while skimming my daily beauty news emails...  It was immediately SOLD OUT, so I had to stalk it for a few weeks. My persistance paid off and I was able to snag this bundle of gorgeousness.  The Limited Edition "Unicorn Glow" box set by Wet n Wild  My mother had always compared my sisters and I to raccoons. Dark puffy circles around the eyes caused by allergies, and a love for anything SHINY. This box of magic is definitely shiny! Everything about it is appealing: the rainbow holographic outer packaging, the faux velvet-lined inner packing, and most of all, the products themselves! Besides shiny things, I'm almost always intrigued by any beauty products that have themes and are limited edition. The beauties inside the Unicorn Glow Box,     So I placed my order and the box arrived in about 10 days. Upon receiving my...
