Raise Awareness, Give Hope

“We know life can be hard sometimes, so this month we want to help make your daily routine a little easier and more enjoyable!”

Sally Hansen ~ Salon Insta-Gel Strips. SS Snake Eyes. These would be cool, BUT they need a Mini LED lamp that is sold separately.

Sparitual nail lacquer ~ Strike A Pose

Lavilin Underarm/Foot  Deodorants for men and women. “Up to 7 days odor free”

Still impressed with BoxyCharm even though it’s drugstore makeup. I highly recommend it if you want to try new things.

Not too impressed with this month’s Beauty Box 5. It has good stuff, but over all I’ve had better boxes.

“We know the transition from summer lovin’ to fall can be hard on your heart (and your style), but we can make it through this! This month take it easy with Beauty Box 5 by dialing down your beauty routine and focusing on nourishing essentials. And who knows? Maybe some glitter nail polish, tea and chunky sweater weather is just what the doctor ordered.”
