#EddieBorgoForTarget



So the Eddie Borgo for Target is now online and I just got my order in....

Wait what? Yes, you heard me. Target didn't crash, although for a hot minute I thought it was going to, but it didn't.

Maybe this collab isn't going to be as popular? I hope stuff goes on sale ;3

Honestly only some of the charms appealed to me and I'm not going to pay $12.99 for one, when I need like, ten. Yes, I'm cheap. I really hope they go on sale.

Nothing but the bags really appeals to me, I'm not a huge fan of the earrings or necklaces.
I do kinda like the look of the belt.

I went a little over budget though.... #NoRegrets #YOLO
So no more shopping for me. I would really like to get the charms for the bags but when I went back and added all that I wanted/'needed' for the bags it was over $100. 

As for what I bought I got three Mini Backpacks in White Marble, Black Galaxy, and Silver Mirror. And I also got the Mini Bucket Bag in Black Galaxy.



What did you guys get? Are you excited?

Bath & Body Works to release Limited Editon Collection of Shower Gels and Bar Soaps!!!




Are you excited?
I'm curious about the bar soaps!
I've used the shower gels and while the scent doesn't stay on you for a long time it still makes my showers a somewhat of an aromatherapy experience :)

Dolce & Gabbana Ad: The weirdest Ad ever?!?

So I was purusing through my February 2015 Instyle Magazine and my eyes land on the weirdest ad ever.

So I know that fashion can be quirky and weird but this is just weird.


So there's an old lady in stockings with a woman dancing in Dolce & Gabbana. 

I got nothing.

Bath & Body Works Body Cream: Old Vs. New Formula

So Bath & BodyWorks revamped their Body Cream and changed it from Triple Moisture Body Cream to 24-Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Cream.

The first seven ingrediants are identical and in the same order but then the next three ingrediants are the same but switched around.

For the Triple Moisture it goes: Dimethicone, Isohexadrcane, and Stearic Acid.
For the 24-Hour Moisture it goes: Stearic Acid, Dimethicone, and Isohexadrcane.
After those three the ingrediants are pretty much  different from one another, besides a few ingrediants that pop up. Both ingrediant lists end in Citronellol.
I wish I knew chemistry 

The Triple Moisture Body Cream boosted about: "[containing] nourishing Milk Proteins, hydrating Rice Bran Oil, and protective Acai Berry Extract." 

The 24-Hour Moisture Ultra Shea Body Cream boosts about its use of: "infused with ultra-rich, moisturizing Shea Butter."

Going from three ingrediants to one? This Shea Butter must be good!

I've used lotions with Shea in them and honestly it wasn't anything that changed my life.

The 24-Hour one seems a tad thicker but overall they have the same consistency

Overall the new version is better than the older one.

First Look: Free 2014 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show Bra Top (With a PINK Purchase)


Hey guys!

This is the Free Fashion Show Bra Top with A PINK Purchase. Valid 12.4.2014 - 12.8.2014. While supplies last.

2014 Fashion Show Bra Top!
I'm pretty sure this is the 'Sweet Freebie' we're trying to unlock.

This is the back of the mailer I got yesterday. It's funny they're going to release this freebie no matter what, but they have people hash-tagging away so we can 'unlock' it.

Also came with a coupon for $10 Off A $30 Purchase. 

What do you think?

I think I like last years better....

CoverGirl Lipslicks Smoochies Sizzle Gloss in 530, 535, and 556


CoverGirl Lipslicks Smoochies Sizzle Gloss in 530, 535, and 556
These are pretty sheer but you do get a little color with them, especially with 535 (orange) and 556 (bronze), not so much with the 530 (yellow).

Second I love, love, love, the fruity scent and subtle taste of them. 
They make your lips super shiny and sparkly, any lip gloss lovers out there will love these.

These lasted me about an hour of wear time.

How to make Ramen Noodles DELICIOUS!!!




So your a poor college student, or your just poor, either way your on a diet of ramen noodles and You're SICK OF THEM!! 
What to do?

Put a spin on your regular noodles with my recipe of course!!!


 What You Need:

Ramen Noodles... duh.
EGGS!! I use two... or three, depending on how hungry.
ONION!!!

What To Do:

Measure some hot water! It boils faster :)
Dump it in the pot! And heat it up!
Dice up the onion, I use a lot!
Add some salt!
Add some garlic salt. I also add parsley.
Add the packet seasoning, and the noodles! I add the noodles before it starts to boil so it absorbs more flavoring.

Once your noodles are done fish them out and put them in a separate bowl.
You should be left with this.
Now crack the eggs and add them.
You can cook them over a low heat and keep them pretty or boil them over a high heat. Depending on how you cook them the eggs will look different. If you boil them they tend to fall apart and look like brains... yuumm... brains..
I like my eggs to be fully cooked.
And your done!! Super delicious!! <3

 Troubleshooting:

You want a pot that is deeper but smaller in diameter. You want a good level of liquid for the eggs, but if you add a lot of water than you loose flavor so pick a small pot.
Make sure the eggs don't stick to the bottom of the pot if your water is shallow.

And this is Cleo looking funny trying to eat noodles hehe.

Victoria's Secret PINK New! Leopard Lace Push-Up Bra


All images property of Victoria's Secret. Editing by Me.
Elsa Hosk in the New! Leopard Lace Push-Up Bra in Sapphire $32.95 - $34.95 & in the New! Leopard Lace Thong Panty in Majestic Sapphire $9.50 or Special 5/$26.50.

The bra comes in sizes 32-34A-DD, 36B-DD.
Sadly if you have DDs then you'll have to pay two dollars more at $34.95, for everyone else it's $32.95.

The bra is advertised as "Smoothest Lace Ever. Even Under Tees!"

The site description is "This sporty bra with flirty lift—this push-up has cute logo trim and our new super-smooth leopard lace. Soft, seamless with no-show straps—you'll want to wear it under everything. Cups have our signature pink lining, so you know it’s from Victoria’s Secret PINK."

The bra is super smooth with plush padding, it's not over done though, sorry guys your not gonna pull a Dolly Parton with this one haha.

I'm petite I usually wear a size 32AA from Victoria's Secret, but happily this bra fits me at 32A!
This means that the straps are fully adjustable, meaning you can pretty much slide the tab from front to back (YES!!!). You can also wear it classic or crossback, meaning the straps in the back can detach. The bra has the usual hooks in the back for closure. The site says it's made out of imported polyamide/spandex.

I really love the design of this bra! It feels so fresh and sporty with the leopard lace and the sporty banding.

The bra comes in nine different colors! 
  • Sapphire - is a beautiful, saturated, jewel-tone blue.
  • Mint - is a beautiful, airy, light mint.
  • Basil - is a kind of moss, camo color green, not for me but I can see others liking it.
  • Ruby - omg, I don't know why VS is obsessed with this color. Ruby is not a beautiful saturated jewel tone but a dull, as my fiance puts it, "old period blood" color lmao. On the site they make it look some what pleasing but in person it really is a dull, old period blood color haha.
  • Rose Grey - is a pretty dusty pink color, with hints of purple in it.
  • Peach - is exactly like it's name implies. A pale peach color. It differs a little bit in real life.
  • Snow White - is not snow white but a cream color white.
  • Dark Grey - is a great sumptuous grey color.
  • Black - is actually a true black in real life but on the site it's portrayed as a dark grey.
I can say that even though VS sucks with portraying correct colors on their site all the colors are pretty accurate except for the black, which on the site is shown as a dark grey but it's actually black.
I love the Sapphire, Mint, Dark Grey, and Black, what about you guys?

Bath & Body Works Endless Weekend Eau De Parfum


Bath & Body Works Endless Weekend Preview Eau De Parfum
This is one of +Bath and Body Works Preview Eau De Parfums, so it's smaller and looks different but it has the same formula as the actual perfume.

See my other review here.

Endless Weekend retails at Bath & Body Works for $39.50 for 1.7 fl oz.

Bath & Body Works Endless Weekend Preview Eau De Parfum
The site description is:
With a higher concentration of fragrance oils, our Eau de Parfum gives you a more intense, longer-lasting aroma for the ultimate, most luxurious indulgence.

 
 Top Notes: Raspberry Lychee Sorbet, Sparkling Mandarin, Juicy Nectarine, Apple, Mirabelle Plum
 
Mid Notes: Sun-Kissed Magnolia, Gardenia, Plum Blossom, Fresh Picked Jasmine Sambac
 
Dry Notes: Vanilla Sandalwood, Vanilla Orchid, Blue Coconut Water, Sugared Musk
 


 Key Fragrance Notes:
 An exhilarating blend of raspberry lychee sorbet, sun-kissed magnolia and vanilla sandalwood
 
 Usage:
Lightly spray at pulse points such as wrists or neck. Do not rub or wipe for long-lasting fragrance.

I actually like their Morocco Orchid & Pink Amber scent better.

At first this comes off as really sweet and warm but then after a few minutes it smells spicier. 
I don't particularly like spicy scents either, if only it would've stayed sweet.

Honestly this perfume fades to a very faint scent after 10 minutes and I can't say buying this is worth anyone's money. You'd have to spray this every 10 minutes to smell anything.

Yves Saint Laurent YSL Parisienne Eau de Parfum 1 fl. oz. Review



YSL Parisienne Eau de Parfum 1 fl. oz.
 Oh, that packaging!!!


The site description:
The new fragrance by Yves Saint Laurent is a sensuous bouquet to the woman whose heart belongs to Paris… even if home is elsewhere. A voluptuous floral accord of violet, damask rose and tart blackberry seems to tell the whole story. But then comes the fullness of sandalwood, deepened by musk and brightened by peonies, tying the endnotes to the ones beginning.

The 1.0 OZ retails for $39.


I got mine from Sephora and I honestly think I got a dud.


It was so super light, I couldn't really smell it unless I put my nose right up to where I sprayed and even then it was super faint. I mean it's so light I was wondering if I got a defect.



But from what I can smell, it smells like a typical floral with a hint of musk.



Since I can't smell it in the first place I can't even tell you how long it lasts.
