Beyoncé Heat Rush Review


“This fragrance is inspired by the bright and subtle sensuality that transcends every aspect of Beyoncé’s life,” says Steve Mormoris, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Coty Beauty.

“I created Heat Rush to bring the feeling of warmth and sensuality to every woman who wears it. It’s feminine and sexy, fresh and beautiful,” describes Beyoncé, who wanted to produce the adrenaline rush of a fruity and floral cocktail.


I never tried the original Heat collection, but I had the opportunity to try out the perfume from the new Beyonce Heat Rush Perfume for Women Collection ($24 - $59), which is the ultimate scent for the warm weather since it perfectly captures the essence of summer! It's delightfully sweet, cheerful, romantic, tantalizing, and sexy. I instantly capture notes of orange, orchid, mango, but the musk isn't easily detectable. This is good since my top favorite scents are usually light, feminine, and cheery. I don't have a particular fondness for heavy scents and this what I was expecting this perfume to be for some reason. Not the case at all!

Deborah Merhar has been a licensed esthetician and waxing educator in the spa industry for over 15 years. She owns Ivy Day Spa in Reno and developed the Relax and Wax line of depilatory products because she believes that waxing should not be a painful process.

As an Esthetician, she has tried every product on the market, even scouring drug store shelves, trying to obtain pain free waxing results for my clients. When she finally found one that actually worked, the cost was prohibitive and you needed a prescription. But, she knew she was on to something and the search was on. Topical solutions that did desensitize the skin were not compatible with the wax and the ones that allowed the wax to do it’s job did nothing to ease the pain. But, she would not give up - there had to be an answer! Combination after combination, disappointment after disappointment, month after month, then success! Finally, a topical anesthetic in a water based product that did not interfere with the wax.

The Perfect Summer Accessory to Go With Your Bikini-Ready Body - Long, Lush, LashDipped Lashes

LashDip, the revolutionary, semi-permanent mascara is the ideal summer beauty accessory. Hot off the runway, flawless, long, luscious lashes are this summer’s hottest trend. Full, sexy lashes create the perfect frame to enhance your eyes and accent a sexy bronze glow.

Proclaimed the 2011 beauty breakthrough by The Today Show, LashDip adds volume, increases length, provides lift, curl and separation that won't smudge or wash off for up to six weeks. Vogue Magazine calls LashDip “The Lashes Of A Lifetime.” LashDip is the answer for anyone who wants a beautiful, fresh, glamorous look without the daily hassle of fighting with your mascara. Whether relaxing on the beach, playing in the pool or out and about anywhere under the hot sun and humidity, lashes treated with LashDip will stay fresh for the summer without smudging, smearing, running or wearing off. Created for even the most sensitive eyes, LashDip
is sweat-proof as well as water and heat resistant.


Having the LashDip application is not only a care-free effortless experience, but LashDip treated lashes are often healthier and stronger. Called "Lash Armor" by the pros, LashDip gently protects lashes while promoting lash growth. Expert lash technicians suggest that this may be due to the fact that LashDip avoids the daily wear and tear of applying extra coats of mascara and rubbing to remove it at the end of the day. With LashDip, there’s no need to use a metal curler - which can be harsh on lashes and cause them to fall out or break.

From natural to ultra long and glamorous, the LashDip treatment can create the customized appearance every woman craves on natural lashes or with lash extensions. It can also be used with lash enhancing treatments including the prescription drug Latisse® from Allergan.

Priced at around $200 per treatment, LashDip can only be applied by a certified LashDip professional in a spa, salon or physician’s office. The treatment takes just under an hour has staying power of up to six weeks.

L'Occitane Verbena Shower Gel Review

Sold in over 85 countries around the world, through a wide network of boutiques and strategic partners, L'OCCITANE creates high quality, efficient and sensorial products formulated with traceable, natural and active ingredients inspired by Provençal traditions and offering the experience of well-being.


The L'Occitane Verbena Shower Gel ($20) is enriched with invigorating essentials oils of verbena, orange, geranium, and lemon that is loved equally by men and women. The bottle is resplendent with L'Occitane's vintage glamour appeal. The smell is extremely scent-sational. The fragrance lingers a while longer after I'm done showering. It's a great way to perk up in the morning since anything citrusy smelling is known to banish tiredness. It is also a great way to de-stress, because the smell is supremely comforting. My skin feels wonderful each time I use this product!

Padina Cosmetics Review


I've tried many eyelash conditioners since I have started this blog, but it has been quite awhile since I've featured a review on one. I recently came across one that I really liked. I chose to not review the one I received prior to this since I had a terrible experience. I'm referring to a company called RevitaLash in case you're wondering. I have read esteemed reviews regarding that company. Therefore, I can't but wonder if I came across a bad batch. Maybe not since you can't go by everything you read on the internet, unless you've had first hand experience.

The Padina Eyelash Conditioner ($120) is a bit different than the eyelash conditioners I've tried in the past. It's made with a total of 23 different herbal extracts sans the harsh chemicals found in most eyelash conditioners on the market. You might want to refer to this link link since many brands are known to cause serious risks.

The herbal plants in the Padina Eyelash Conditioner contain the exact proteins that each eyelash is composed of in order to give your eyelashes the same building materials for growth enhancement and volume. Padina is already making a splash in Hollywood, as it was hand selected by Rob Robinson for Fred Segal Apothia in their Melrose shop.

To guarantee a higher effectiveness of this botanical formula, Padina has created a blending of western and oriental herbal and mineral science that they've coined a "Botanical Revolution," with a unique nano-blending technique that combines all ingredients into a fine liquid that is extremely penetrating and stable. This results in maximum penetration of all components, which equal top results. Noticeable results can be seen within 3-4 weeks of using the product as directed.

My Thoughts:
I'm uber picky about what I apply around my eyes since my eyes are very sensitive due to photophobia, which means light sensitivity. However, I think it contributes sensitivity to other things. Therefore, I was a bit leery about trying this new product out since I didn't hear too much about it prior to my experience. Since it doesn't have the chemical muck that most eyelash conditioners are known to have, my curiosity got ahold of me.

I haven't had a such a good experience with an organic eyelash conditioner since Lash Mantra. I used product faithfully every night as recommended (no need to do it morning and night to achieve results) and I started noticing a slight difference in the third week. They were noticeably longer after 6 weeks. I like that I didn't even feel the slightest sting when I accidentally got some product in one of my eyes. This was enough for me know that they stand by their word when they say that they only use natural ingredients in their products. In case you have never used an eyelash conditioner, it's very easy to use since you apply it like you would with a liquid eyeliner. After desire results are achieved, you can this eyelash conditioner every two to three days to maintain the results.

CLEAN Summer Escape Perfume Review


Tropical vacations are a luxury. However, they only last briefly. This Spring, wherever life takes you, CLEAN, the lifestyle brand renowned for its simple, fresh approach to beauty, offers an instant sensory escape to the shore. Inspired by the relaxed freedom of sun-kissed skin, cloudless sky and endless sea, the new CLEAN Summer Escape Perfume ($49) envelopes the body in layers of crisp, citrusy, notes to transport you to the beach in an instant.

My Thoughts:
This fragrance is light, spring-like, and delightful to the senses. It smells like something I've used before, but I can't exactly put my nose on it. However, the bergamot is quite evident, which happens to be one of my favorite scents....and tea (Earl Grey). The only daunting thing I find about this fragrance is the need to re-apply quite often. Other than that, I love it!

Borghese Rapido Fast Dry Lacquer Review


Quick-drying formulas in long-lasting colors. Borghese invites you to discover the new Rapido Fast Dry Lacquer collection in bold brights and chic Italian neutrals. Evoking all the vivid colors of a garden in bloom, and the sophisticated hues of city style, Borghese's new nail lacquers complement every wardrobe.

These long-wearing, nail-strengthening lacquers contain Borghese's exclusive Aqua di Vita complex to help restore moisture and balance, while Micronized Gemstones add strength and brillance. Each shade comes with a special Duale Curve Tip Brush custom designed to hug the shape of your nail for smooth, flawless application that lasts up to seven days. The rich, saturated hues are free of DBP's, Toluene, and add Formaldehyde.


I chose two colors from the Borghese Rapido Fast Dry Lacquer Collection ($8), Lira and Limoncello. The Limoncello (shown in the picture above) is a beautiful shade of a goldish green. My boyfriend even complimented me on the shade! The Lira is a shimmery beige. I was not the least disappointed with my selections. Unlike the last nail polish I reviewed, this nail polish dries seemingly in seconds. Like most nail polishes out there, it needs a basecoat and topcoat to get stronger staying power. I am so pleased with my experience with Borghese that I'm tempted to buy the Menta, Marino, Violetta, and Chroma.

The Borghese Rapido Fast Dry Lacquer Collection includes Vigneto, Marino, Lira, Chroma, Violetta, Mochaccino, Menta, Marino, Maraschino, Siena, Rosso, Limoncello, and Anemone.

Monave Lip Glaze Review




I recently received the Sheer Lip Glaze in #506 - Honey Gaze ($13) from Monave. I was expecting it to be darker since it looks like a dark raspberry color on the outside. However, the color turned how to be a very, very light raspberry color. You can wear it alone or use it as a topcoat to make your favorite lipstick stand even more. It provides high shine without the stickiness. I love it! Despite the names of the Sheer Lip Glazes, I didn't detect a taste, which isn't very important to me as long as I have a good quality lip gloss.

Also available in Jelly Bean, Candy, Strawberry, Maple, Sugar, Mango, Butterscotch, and Candy Apple.


Monave has a vast collection of beauty products. I wouldn't mind trying out their Organic Rosemary Hair Tonic ($15), Grapefruit Mousse Cleanser ($5 - $26.50), Las Vegas Gift Set ($200), and Loose Glitter ($5).

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Must-Have Beauty Products for Every Bride-to-Be

Irritated skin is hands-down the most feared beauty blunder for brides-to-be. With the onset of stress induced by nerves, planning and high-maintenance friends and family it’s almost a guarantee that our skin will throw its own mini tantrum and breakout.

With the help of Cures by Avancé, the curative and corrective line of skin care products that treat skin conditions rather than skin types, brides can put up a fight with the following 4-step routine to bring out that “glow” that we have all engagement and banish those unruly blemishes.

“Easy Does It”

Step 1: Cleanse


Be sure to cleanse your skin using a gentle formula such as Cures Gentle Cleansing Milk ($11 - $27). This creamy cleanser allows skin to breathe more freely as makeup and impurities are dissolved from the surface. The skin feels clean and comfortable with a balanced moisture level.

“Put A Mask On It”

Step 2: Condition


A good clay mask, used once a week, is great for oily, acne-prone skin. Try Cures Anti-Acne Mask ($32), a cooling, refreshing mask formulated with Camphor Extracts to purify skin. This mask temporarily relieves sinus pressure and puffiness around the eyes. After 10 minutes, decongested skin will be revealed.

My Thoughts:
For the past couple of months, I had been experiencing breakouts. Therefore, I've been very, very careful on what I use on my face. This is one of the products that have been helping out tremendously. I like that it doesn't sting or make my face red after using it, which I have experienced with some facial masks in the past. It's very light and has a whipped, creamy texture. It is also very easy to wash off. I'll admit that I'm not too keen on the smell, because it reminds me of Vick's VapoRub. However, it's a really good mask to use if you can get past the eye-watering smell, which only lasts for about a couple of minutes.

“Balancing Act”

Step 3: Moisturize


For combination skin, try Cures Pore Balancing Moisturizer ($37.50). This featherweight crème not only purifies and releases impurities trapped in the skin, but also equalizes the pH level to balance skin.

“Seeing Is Believing”

Step 4: Focus on the Eyes


Help erase the signs of aging, wrinkles and dark circles around the eyes with Cures Age Defyer Eye ($50). This eye crème promotes collagen production around the sensitive eye area and leaves the skin softer, smoother and less lined.

Reb'l Fleur by Rihanna Review and Giveaway

"This fragrance is about my individuality - being expressive and empowering, yes, but also emotional and intriguing. I wear my fragrance, I don't let it wear me." -Rihanna

Better late than never, Rihanna joins the long list of celebrity endorsed fragrances. Reb'l Fleur ($30 - $59) reflects her vibrant personality with a bold and luxurious harmony. It's also glamorous, audacious, and fashion forward as her unforgettable style. Reb'l Fleur was inspired by her grandmother in Barbados who used to affectionately call her Rebel Flower. As of August 2010, Rihanna even had the words "Rebelle Fleur" inked on side of her neck back at the East Side Ink Tattoo Parlor in NYC.


When I first received Reb'l Fleur, I was pleasantly taken back by the beautiful and generously sized bottle. The fragrance is feminine and flowery without being overpowering. I believe that the scent will appeal to all ages since it is youthful, yet mature. It's certainly the kind of fragrance that would never get boring!

Reb'l Fleur is as much in tune with Barbados-born Rihanna's roots as it is with the glamorous of her present life in New York City. Created by internationally renowned perfumers, Caroline Sabas and Marypierre Julien, this fruity chypre is joyous yet intense, sophisticated yet marvelously surprisingly. Plump, delicious fruits, red berries, purple plums, and juicy, ripe peaches, make a scrumptious impression. Then the heart opens into a lush hybrid hinting at Island life, subtle yet intoxicating, blossoming with sumptuous florals, a passionate melody of Hawaiian Hibiscus flower, violet, tuberose, and coconut water. The sultry base notes linger on with vanilla, patchouli, amber, and musk.

The bottle is delightfully dramatic as a Rihanna performance. It was inspired by the shape of a stiletto heel, which is Rihanna's favorite shoe option. The bottle was made feminine with a twisting matte black "ribbon" layered over precious metal, the fragrance appears to glow from within, suffused with a glorious golden aura.

Reb'l Fleur is on sale in US stores now with worldwide sales starting between March and April 2011.

Scotch Naturals Review


Scotch Naturals ($15 at Beautorium) offers nail polish that is eco-friendly, hypoallergenic, fragrance free, and biodegradable. The polish comes in a recyclable, lead-free bottle. They have been featured in People Style Watch, American Salon, Nylon Magazine, Lonny, CoCo Eco Magazine, and Martha Stewart Living. The polishes were also voted Babble's Best baby shower gift.

I received the Loch Ness Mystery, which is an alluring azure hue that exudes a mysterious charm. They promise on the the site that it takes within 3 minutes for their nail polish to try, but it seemingly took a little bit longer than that. It was well worth the wait! I just love the fact that there's no need for a basecoat or topcoat, because this saves a lot of time and money. I also like that their nail polish doesn't chip easily. However, you can peel it off just like that, excluding the need for a nail polish remover.

Their polishes have a longer shelf life than other water-based products. They contain any of the chemicals found in typical nail polish: toluene, dibutyl phthelate, formaldehyde, acetone, and heavy metals. Scotch Naturals WaterColors have been tested by Environmental Working Group's Skin Deep Cosmetic Safety Database and recieved a ranking of 1, making them the safest polishes on the market. With all of this said, it's well worth $15!

Ole Henriksen Lavender Body Oil Review

OLEHENRIKSEN products and treatments are designed to elevate skin to the best it can possibly be with a synergy of the highest quality natural botanicals and the latest state of the art equipment and technology. Made with antioxidant rich ingredients, OLEHENRIKSEN products are designed to target and treat every skin type and concern, from anti-aging to acne and everything in between.


Lavender oil has a wealth of benefits. It has the ability to reduce stress and nervous tension, induce sleep, treat various skin disorders (acne, wrinkles, psoriasis, and other inflammations), relieve pain, disinfect scalp and skin, treat respiratory problems, and enhance blood circulation. Lavender has the Latin name Lavare, which means “to wash”, due to its aroma that gives the feeling of a clean aroma.

Their Lavender Body Oil ($28) is delightfully infused with Lavender Essential Oil, Sesame Oil, and Sweet Almond Oil. I love how versatile it is, because you can use for multiple purposes - moisturizer for the body and hair, bath oil, make-up remover, and body massages. I also love that it is great for all skin types, because my skin can be problematic at times. The oil has the perfect feel. It's not greasy in the least! Plus, it doesn't take forever to penetrate the skin.
