Nanshy Face Brushes


These are the Nanshy Face Brushes*, I received these as well as an 88 Color Palette from Beautystore4u.co.uk for review.

I've been using these brushes for a few weeks now, to make sure I could get a nice, full review for you guys.
These are synthetic and very, very soft.
They are also 100% vegan and cruelty free.
You can use these to apply liquid, cream and powder products flawlessly.

These are very nice brushes, and I haven't had any issues with shedding or anything like that.


As you can see, one is a flat top kabuki, round top kabuki, round angled kabuki, pointed kabuki, and angled kabuki.

You can buy these separately as linked above or in sets of four or five from amazon.

So, I definitely recommend these brushes, and they're pretty inexpensive, so check those out!

I also received an 88 Eye Shadow Palette*.



The palette looks really nice, and I've used it a couple of times so far.
I got the Matte Color palette, which I think is the problem, because a few of the shades have no pigmentation at all, while others are extremely pigmented.
It's really a hit & miss, like most 88 palettes probably are.

I hope you guys enjoyed this review!

Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Curling Iron

I received the Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic 1 1/2 inch curling iron* from Flatironexperts.com for review. I've used this curling iron a few times now, and I'm in love. 

Let me start off by saying, I love curling my hair, but it NEVER holds. 
It seems that when using this curling iron, my curls actually last all day, which is great. 



This curling iron is special because it emits negative ions, which eliminate static, preserve moisture within the hair shaft, causes less damage and neutralizes odors.




This curling iron has 40 heat settings, going all the way up to 428 degrees. It also has a swivel cord, so you don't have to worry about the cord getting all tangled around as you move around with it. 

I'll insert the description from the website here so you get all of the info.

  • 5 barrel sizes available
  • Unique POP-IN/POP-OUT temperature control
  • Ultra-powerful heaters that provide fast, steady maximum temperatures
  • Instant heat recovery
  • 40 heat settings
  • Heats up to 428ºF(220ºC)
  • Slim rubberized handles
  • Tourmaline/Ceramic closes the hair cuticle resulting in smooth, glossy hair.
  • Tourmaline/Ceramic plus heat emits NEGATIVE IONS which eliminate static electricity and neutralize odors and bacteria.
  • Tourmaline/Ceramic barrels retain heat more efficiently, distribute it more evenly and eliminate damaging hot spots.
  • Tourmaline/Ceramic radiates faster drying FAR-INFRATED HEAT, which dries hair from the inside out, preserving more moisture within the hair shaft and causing less damage to the hair cuticle.
  • Extra long, heavy duty swivel cord
  • Dual Voltage
  • One year warranty

You can get the Babyliss Pro Tourmaline Ceramic Curling Iron here.
It retails for $119.99 but is currently on sale for $84.99

In addition the the curling iron, I was also sent another bottle of heat protectant and a bottle of the Macadamia Healing Oil Treatment, that I'm in LOVE with.

The heat protectant makes your hair very smooth and shiny.


This stuff is absolutely amazing and has become my only HG hair product.
I've been using this for a while now, and it makes my hair feel and smell amazing.

So, I curled my hair using all of these products and went from this:

to this:





The curling iron does a great job of curling hair, and I love the way it turned out.
I totally recommend this curling iron!

They have all kinds of hair tools & products!

Sephora Haul!

Oh, it's that time.
Time for the smallest Sephora haul you're ever going to see.

Sephora is expensive, k?


Oh yes, the super awesome special Sephora bag. Why? I don't know. :)


And...that's it.
I know, right?

Kat Von D Saint Perfume.
It smells nice and was on clearance for $11.



Can we just take a moment and talk about how pretty this bottle is, and ignore the fact that that's the only reason I bought it?
I'm a sucker for packaging...the real reason for both purchases.


Too Faced La Creme Lipstick in Juicy Melons.
Aside from the packaging, I would have bought this for the name.
I'm immature and it made me laugh, more times than I'd like to admit.
However, it just so happens the color is amazing.

This was $21. I complain about spending $15 on a MAC lipstick. Yet, I bought this because of the packaging. I need help.


The girl at Sephora gave me about a billion and twelve samples. I'm not complaining.
I'm especially excited to try out the Josie Maran Bronzing Argan Oil.

So, that's the end of my sad little Sephora haul.
It was my reward to myself for working so much lately, and not killing anyone. :)

Sorry for neglecting you guys, It's been busy, and I'm not good at handling busy.

More posts coming soon.
I have a TON of reviews I'm behind on.
