Victoria's Secret, VS Fantasies, Dream of Kisses, Ultra-Moisturizing Hand And Body Cream


This is a fresh, fruity smelling lotion. This is a holiday 2013 edition lotion. Dream of Kisses scent is of Pink Champagne Apples. The back of the bottle reads: "Dream of Kisses. A holiday fantasy of Pink Champagne and Apple. Intensive cream is infused with replenishing Avocado and Sweet Almond Oils. Massage on for the perfect touch of scent and rich, 24-hour moisture."

You can read my more in depth review Here but to sum it up, it's a nice lotion but it's not something I would buy to solve a major problem, like cracking skin in the winter.

An interesting note is that I'm allergic to tree nuts, and yet when I put these lotions on I didn't break out or anything. Note: I'm not recommend you try these if your allergic, I'm just saying.

Victoria's Secret, VS Fantasies, Dream of Glamour, Ultra-Moisturizing Hand And Body Cream


Description from the site: "The ultimate holiday fantasy—wrap yourself in this enticing blend of vanilla and snow lily. This intensive hand and body cream features replenishing avocado and sweet almond oils for skin that feels soft, smooth and touchable. From our limited-edition holiday collection."

I picked these up at the start of the holiday 2013 season, I suck at doing reviews on time, they are currently not being sold.
 
Application: This lotion is greasy, you definitely don't want to be touching the screen of your phone, tablet, or anything really. The lotion is also thick. When I did a rinse test underwater my hands felt waxy, the lotion didn't wash off without soap.

The Scent: It smells better in the bottle than they do on my skin. They seem to change scents once their applied. It's not like they smell bad, but they definitely change. For me it smells more musky on my skin.This scent differently smells sweet, fruity, almost candy-ish in the bottle.

The packaging is beautiful. I love holographic stuff and my photo doesn't show the rainbow flashes you get on the bottle.

My Experience: The bottle says 24 hour moisture but I didn't really find that to be the case. The scent is pleasant and it's not overpowering. It retailed at $14 and I personally wouldn't pay that, I got two for $5 each.

Ordered my bloody sweater on 11/18/13

I received it 12/2/13 these guys are fast, and their products have always been as advertised.

Sally Hansen Nail Polish

I did my nails using Sally Hansen Crackle Overcoat in 09 Wave Break and Sally Hansen Lustre Shine in Lava 006.


I think they came out pretty good, don't you?




I was kinda disappointed that the blue crackle polish didn't show the pretty purple sheen you see in the bottle but the Lustre showed all the colors you saw in the bottle.

Umm.. so it didn't quite turn out..


Bloody Herpe Hand Nail Art? Not really what I was going for but ermm.. it's halloween? lmao. 

I was inspired by the caviar nail art trend AND obviously failed to replicate it haha. 

Enjoy laughing at my screw-up lol :)

SheInside Shopping Review


So just recently I reviewed the online shop Oasap, favorably I might add, check it out here.

I won a free trial from the shopping site SheInside and from what I gather they are similar to Oasap. They are both located in Hong Kong, both sites offer similar items, and often times same items, they have the same site layouts and the same free trial business and both offer free standard shipping. 

Except for me one is better than the other. I ordered from both sites at around the same time and I already got my package from Oasap, I ordered from them 10/03/13. 

I ordered a sweater from SheInside on 10/09/13 and I just got a packaged shipped email confirmation from them on 10/27/13... WHAT? Yes, just a couple days ago I got a shipment confirmation from them. Oasap is way quicker, even though I picked the free shipping option from both sites. 

I will update this review with the actual sweater review once I well.. actually get the sweater lol.

OASAP Leggings Review

So I ordered two pairs of leggings from Oasap.com on 10/03/2013 and I just got the package today, 10/18/2013.
So before you say, "What the hell, why did it take so long?", I'll tell you this, they are a Chinese company and they ship from Hong Kong and the shipping was also FREE. Yep they have free standard shipping for every order. If I remember correctly the other shipping prices weren't too bad either, I'm just super cheap haha. The leggings were packaged in their own plastic bags and those two plastic bags were housed in a separate plastic bag which was then stuck in the shipping bag. They did not include a return slip.
 So on to the good stuff. These are the leggings I bought. The Muscle Print Leggings were $21.17 and the Galaxy Print Leggings were $24.57. The prices change all the time though so they could be different now. One thing I didn't like about them is that they only come in One Size. Usually I'm an XS so I was worried about the fit.

My Stats are: Hips are 30 in. around, Waist is 25 in. around, and I'm around 93 pounds. My Height is 4'11".
CONS They don't conform all the way to my legs (in the knee area) like I would like and the crotch area wrinkles from it not fitting correctly but it's nothing I'm going to sent them back over, (you get what you pay for). They are also really long on me but I'm used to that, being 4'11" and all lol.
PROS The material is nice and thick and the colors are vibrant, they look more expensive then they really are. 

These designs are knock offs from Black Milk Clothing whose leggings run $70 and up. The fit of these leggings is the only thing that yells out CHEAP, well that and the stitching. The stitching isn't bad they're holding up, but they aren't super tight.. like you can see the stitching..

Overall I think I'll buy from them again :)

 I hope you like my review and if you have suggestions and comments be sure to well.. comment haha. 

I WILL UPLOAD MORE PHOTOS SOON.
