Sigma E25 Blending Brush

I was sent this brush by Sigma to review and give my honest opinion. and that is what I will do. I received this E25 blending brush about two weeks ago and have been using it faithfully.

Here's the brush:



Description:


Oval-shaped brush with gently chiseled sides. Blends and softens the look of powder or cream shadows. Ideal to apply eye shadow primer, base eye shadow colors, and blend harsh lines.


My Review:

I absolutely love this brush. It works very well for applying eyeshadow primer, base, and eye shadows. It is amazing at packing on the color and making it appear vibrant even without a primer or base. The quality of the brush is superior and the texture of the brush is very soft. It is very easy to clean and store because of the travel size. Perfect for vacationing or carrying around in your makeup bag. I would definitely recommend this to anyone that is looking for an eyeshadow brush.

Be sure to check out Sigma Beauty today! They have fantastic, great quality brushes at a very reasonable price.

Thank you again Sigma!

Bodylicious Review

Hey lovelies! Todays review is going to be on MsMicalee's Bodylicious leave in conditioner. First, I would like to thank her for being so generous and sending over this wonderful leave in conditioner along with a few other items, which I absolutely love. Now on to the review!

This wonderful leave in conditioner contains some fabulous ingredients that my hair simply adores. The ingredients are as follows:

Organic Aloe Vera Juice, Avocado Butter, Shea Butter, Organic Cocos Nucifera (Coconut Oil), Ricinus communis (Castor Oil), Vegetable Glycerin, Broccoli Seed Oil, Meadowfoam Seed Oil, Vegetable Emulsifier, Potassium Sorbate, Essential Oil Blend, Tocopherol (Vitamin E)

The description is as follows:
The Bodylicious Leave-in Conditioner moisturizes hair for incredible body and shine. Leaves hair silky soft, and frizz free. Perfect for braid outs, twist outs, and dull, dry, hair. This rich creamy formula is naturally formulated to moisturize, condition, and revitalize dry, brittle or damaged hair.

Perfect For: 
• Extremely dry itchy hair and scalp
• Fine hair
• Heat damaged or over-processed hair
• Color-treated hair
• Extremely coarse hair
• Frizzy hair
• Relaxed or natural hair

My take on this product is that I absolutely love it! The only complaint that I do have is that the price is something that I personally cannot afford. For me, this product does exactly what it says it will do. It took my dry and dull hair and made it soft, fluffy, and shiny all without weighing it down. This is definitely something that I would purchase with my own money and use as a staple because my hair loves it!

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who can afford it and anyone looking for a great leave in conditioner and moisturizer. If interested please feel free to check out the website here

You can also find her on Youtube

Thank you again MsMicalee, I truly appreciate it!

Eco Styler Gel

I've finally gotten around to doing this review. I've been putting it off for so long, based on pure laziness. This review will be on the famous Eco Styler gel.


Pros:

  • It has a nice perfume smell
  • Awesome hold
  • Price is great for the size
  • Does not flake at all
  • Leaves a great shine
  • Helps define my curls
  • Lays down my edges with no problem
  • No buildup
Cons:
  • There is nothing negative for me to say about this product, if something changes, I will update.
Price:
  • I actually picked mine up on sale at Sally's and it was $2.99

Overall I'm happy with this gel. I've also used the Eco Styler gel with Olive oil and I also like that one. It does what I need it to do for my hair and I highly recommend it to anyone that is looking for a good holding gel that defines, moisturizes, and holds.


Sassy Swag Wrap

I was so honored to have Sophelia of Sassy Swag designs ask me to do a review for one of her infamous wraps. She was so gracious to send me over a wrap, free of a charge, so that I could test it out and give my honest opinion on it. I first want to say thank you to Sophelia for sending me this beautiful wrap. I was elated to finally receive it and test it out, so here's my review.

The pros:
  • It definitely is sassy and has tons of swag
  • The design was phenomenal
  • It fits very snug and is adjustable
  • It gives personality to a boring head wrap
  • It does a wonderful job at laying my edges down at this point in my transition
  • Nicely made, great quality 
  • Helps keep my straight hair in place overnight and leaves it with a wonderful "swag" the next day 
The cons:
  • Honestly, I have absolutely none

Price:
  • $15
