Influenster YSL VoxBox

*Products provided for honest review from Influenster


I was more than thrilled to be chosen to receive the YSL VoxBox from Influenster. It included the reformulated YSL Masacara Volume Effect Faux Cils.


I am definitely a lover of a GOOD mascara. I don't tend to indulge in expensive mascara anymore. I've been sticking to drug store brands more and more, so this was a real treat.

I have a very hard time finding a mascara that works for me. I have long, thick lashes (I know, poor me LOL), so a lot of mascaras are too gloopy or make my lashes stick together.


I really love this mascara. It doesn't do all the things that I hate in a mascara. It separates my lashes and elongates them without looking goopy and thick. I may have to splurge on this mascara in the future.


The retail value of this mascara is $30!! That's way over what I would usually pay, but I think it may be work it!

Thanks Influenster for giving me the opportunity to try this wonderful product!

Flakie Fun!

Considering flakies are my favorite type of nail polish, I had to get my hands on at least one. 

Polish Me Silly Party Hearty is the perfect flakie. It has a range of colors depending on the light and the base color. 



I chose my go to silver as the base for this magnificent polish, Poshinality Old Soul.  I love how this came out. The flakies really stand out against the lighter base. 



MACRO SHOT  It almost looks like some of the flakies are multicolored. 


What is your favorite flakie polish right now??

Stairway to Heaven

Gray manis are all the rage right now because of 50 Shades of Grey! After I saw the movie (which I thought was awesome!) I was drawn to these colors. I've totally jumped on the band wagon. :) 




To achieve this design I used larger chevron decals from Nail Vinyls. I love these vinyls and have a few different kinds. Changing the direction of these decals from horizontal to diagonal totally changes the way you see it. My son said they looked like buildings. LOL!

I started with a shimmery base of Poshinality Old Soul. The dark gray is  SinfulShine Steel Reserve and the lighter gray is Color Club Silver Lake



 I loved wearing this mani and it lasted almost a week!!! I love when that happens!!




I've been trying to work on my photos for you all. I don't have the money to buy a fancy camera, so I have to work with what I have. I've been trying different lighting, different settings and different hand positions. I see amazing pictures from other bloggers and I get so jealous!! HOW DO YOU DO IT??




Have you created a mani inspired by 50 Shades of Grey? Leave us a picture on our Facebook.
