The Final Day...

For those of you who have been following My Husband's transformation challenge (progress)... Thank you ALL for the support you've given to us! :)


Today is the LAST and Final day! He's taking his final pictures.. I'm SOOOOO proud of him! I'm going to be posting his before and final after pictures on our NEW blog.. (hope your subscribed!) because you won't want to miss it! 


I'm amazed at the transformation, My husband has always looked amazing, but this transformation... just blows my mind at how much his body has changed (and i didn't know it was possible it could change to this!) So thank you to everyone for the support and kindness of spreading the word! 


Also, I wanted to give a quick shout out to Heather & Candace from Airbrush by Heather! (Please check out this amazing tanning company) I found Heather on Yelp.com trying to find somewhere for My Husband to get a spray tan (if you're not versed in the fitness world, it really is a must to show more definition to your muscles).. anywho - Heather is AMAZING! this was My husband's first time getting a spray tan, he was super skeptical (didn't want to be orange).. and so, after reading the many reviews on yelp.com, we decided to go with Airbrush By Heather because of the many 5 star ratings she received. 


When I called her, she was super friendly and answered all my questions. The day of our appointment, she met us outside, and I swear it was like meeting up with an old friend. She was a sweetheart and made us both feel very comfortable. My Husband & I are overall impressed with the tan and I cannot express to you how amazing the customer service is! He went on Wednesday and because he is so active (working out/showering etc) the tan faded (ever so slightly) but he needed a touch up before his big shoot, well - I called Heather and she was so kind and went out of her way to squeeze us in last minute :) 


That's where Candace came to play - She was just as amazing as Heather! And it was awesome because Candace was into fitness and had previously competed before, so she knew what My Husband was looking for with his Tan. She answered all of our questions and made us super comfortable. I totally recommend this company to you if you're looking for an amazing tan that's natural looking. I will tell you, I'm so jealous of my husband - his new tan makes me look like death LOL.. not to mention, I wanted to lick the tan off my husband because he smelled like freaking chocolate chip cookies after his tan haha :) 

But I guess you guys will have to be subscribed to our new blog to see his results! :)

Sephora VIB Haul :: Picture Heavy :)

Since I totally missed out on the Sephora Friends & Family sale, I was so ecstatic to find out that Sephora was having an event for VIB (very important beauty-insiders).. and they were given 20% off from November 10th - November 14th (in store and online). Also there was an instore event at our local participating Sephora store on November 10th..


At this VIB event, you could learn new tips & tricks from their makeup studio, see the latest beauty picks and newest items.. and of course get a free bag (i didn't since i came to the event later - but got chocolate instead lol)..


but nonetheless, I was so glad My mom came with me, she took me shopping lol! :D so i got tons of goodies! :) mind you, it's not very often I go shopping with my mom - cause we're both so busy with work (and school for me).. and since i'm not working at the moment, she decided to spoil me! <3 I Love my Mommy! <3


Oh and no she didn't purchase ALL of these for me.. (just the danmari palette & the amazing grace perfume because I also had a gift certificate to Sephora which covered the rest :D)  

Here is what I Hauled! I'm so excited to use these ALL! lol

Here is everything together

Got 3 samples:

Hourglass face primer, Marc Jacobs "Oh, Lola" perfume & Issac Miyake "Floral" perfume

I went ahead and redeemed my beauty insider gift :D

Benefit "Watt's Up!" highlighter

brush cleaner (for in between washes)

 Philosophy "Amazing Grace" :D

This was the gold skin illuminator

Review :: Stilazzi & Frends Beauty Supply

A while back on twitter, Stilazzi &Frends beauty supply had asked if some bloggers wanted to sign up to get sent products to review. I of course jumped on the opportunity (who wouldn't want to test out makeup and other products for free?) and luckily I was picked to be one  of the few bloggers to test out some products. 


If you don't know who Stilazzi is, feel free to check out their awesome website!
http://www.stilazzi.com


They are basically a beauty distributor that sells mass amounts of makeup and beauty items at super affordable prices & catered to the Hollywood Stars :) but no! you don't have to be a professional makeup artist to purchase from them! 


I believe this is going to be every month, for 10 months - shorter or longer depending on Stilazzi. 


For this month, this is what I was sent:

Okay, so yes it's not makeup, but honestly - it's free and if your like me, and plan to do makeup artistry on the side (for me in the future) this is great to start your kit! All the basic items that are a must!




So I was sent different sized Facial Powder Puffs, I like to call them. I have used these for myself and they are so soft and get the job done. Great for setting your makeup and also great for touch ups :) I love how there are different sizes! 

I was also sent these triangular sponges, great for applying liquid foundation and blending it in. I have always been a fan of these, so I'm glad I was sent a ton! always comes in handy, whether your a makeup artist or not.

I also received disposable mascara wands and disposable lip brushes - definitely get the job done with no fuss :)  

this pic is just without the plastic.. ;D

And lastly, I was sent these wax papers, these are great if you do not have a mixing palette. I wish I would have had this when I was doing a bridesmaids makeup awhile back - I ended up having to use a paper plate i had cut out lol, but this would have been perfect!  great thing about these, when your doing a gig - is you don't have to rewash it (if it's a metal mixing palette you may have) - you can just easily dispose of these afterwards. They come in a variety of sizes and it's perfect! 

I overall enjoyed the products I was sent this month, and definitely see myself purchasing these later on down the road. So if your looking for supplies for your makeup kit & are starting out, definitely give this brand and this company a chance! :) Great prices for such great quality items! I cannot wait to see what I get next month!




FTC: I was sent these products by a PR for Stilazzi for review purposes only. I was not paid to post my opinion. As always, My opinions are honest and just that - MY honest opinion. :)
