Hello

Hello Lovies, let's begin by saying I hope you had an amazing holiday season! Now, I know I've been M.I.A but honestly I've been dealing with several personal issues. Of which I rather not go into detail but I will admit I have reviewed a few items. All in rough draft but just waiting to be published. I often have little to no wifi so when I do publish I hope you don't mind several posts. Be sure to stay up to date with all my makeup adventures via my twitter and of course this blog. Thanks for reading, xoxo MAKEmeUPLamour

Not Your Mother's Smooth Moves Frizz Control Hair Cream

It's a hair miracle! I've discovered an amazing product with actual results. As noted by the title, I will be discussing, sharing and gushing over Not Your Mother's Smooth Moves Frizz Control Hair Cream. The latest and greatest product to be introduced into my hair routine. I guess I must explain my hair issues. Beginning with the lacking shine and dryness, my hair is no friend of mine. Constantly changing products in attempts to find the perfect hair potion is how I spend my weekends. Just kidding. That's just how I feel, using five products to achieve gorgeous hair just isn't cutting it. So when given the chance to try a new hair product, I'm quick to pounce.

Smooth Moves, what can I say? You really are smooth, frizz runs in fear. Just a small dab is all you need and when paired with a blow dryer, it's simply unstoppable! However, beware. Go overboard and use more than needed will result in white residue! Definitely not pretty but avoidable. All in all great frizz defender & smoothness provider while also adding a touch of shine. So be sure to pick yours up at either Walmart or Ulta for only $6! Highly recommend!

NYC New York Color IndividualEyes Custom Compact

Color payoff, affordable and availability. The perfect trifecta achieved by NYC cosmetics with their new Individual Eyes custom Compact. The ideal palette for beginners or makeup collectors as it features your complete eye look in an easy go to palette. But are there any flaws or woes with this product? Well, it wouldn't be an honest review without a few. Beginning with the primer, this cute idea turns up sticky. Nevertheless, it works perfectly well with the shadows. Speaking of which are surprisingly pigmented! Who needs MAC when you can purchase this easy palette for only $4.99! Oh and did I mention, its available everywhere NYC products are sold. But let's get back to the topic at hand, although these shadows are pigmented there's too much fallout! Resulting in shadow overload and far from pretty as these end up in the primer and illuminator. A small yet significant detail. If that's not a problem then you'll love the included ”How To” instructions. Smoky eyes are bound to be in your future.
All in all great product, and price.

Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit

Lashes? Yes, please! It's no secret, I have a lash addiction so discovering new and different brands as well as products is my new favorite thing.
The Kiss Ever PRO Lash Starter Kit is one of them,and although I was completely excited to try it, I had my doubts. Kiss, isn't particularly a brand I would turn to for lashes but I'm happy to say; I will now turn to you. This kit has completely and utterly changed my opinion, for the quality of not only the product but the complete packaging is simply superb! This easy at home starter kit comes complete with eyelashes, glue and of course applicator so let's review!

As far as the lashes go, I think they're great. Neither flimsy nor stiff, definitely made with quality and human hair. Something I'm not entirely certain about, but I'll definitely do some research. Next is the Latex Free lash glue. Normally the glue provided with any lashes are well, not the best. It's nothing against the companies but often times it seems as though they focus solely on the quality of the eyelashes. Kiss takes a different approach. Their glue is mind blowing! I never expected the payoff and hold from a drugstore glue like this one. However it claims to dry clear, a claim that lacked results but no deal breaker. Lastly, the eyelash applicator. All I have to say is, for a beginner it's great. For someone more experienced, you definitely don't need this. Or at least, I didn't.
Overall, this kit is great for beginners or full blown experts, and you'll definitely want more.

Thanks for reading, be sure to purchase yours at your local Walmart for $4.99 , to learn more about the Kiss Ever Pro Starter Kit visit http://www.everezlashes.com/home
