The Juicy Beauty Word

My husband came home with a bottle of Absolut Vodka for his favorite summer cocktail, the Lemon Moscow Mule. The Absolut bottle was all cute in a red, white and blue design. I just love it!  ❤ I will be keeping this bottle, the empty bottle of course! 😜 As it turns out, this is a limited  edition  Absolut  America bottle to help raise money to Keep America Beautiful.  From May 1, 2018 till September 3, 2018, Absolut will donate one dollar to one of four  charities including  Keep America Beautiful   for each picture submitted showing how you party with a purpose this summer. You can select your charity and submit a pic on the  Absolut site .    (You will need to sign in with your age over 21.) Fun and giving back at the same time. It's all good! The simple painted design on the Absolut America bottle inspired me to create some bold, simple red, white and blue nail designs for the upcoming July 4th holiday. Simple stars and stripes painted with red, white and blue nail poli

Zoya has created 3 new Jelly nail polish colors called the Jelly Brites.  This collection is a special edition for 2018. Zoya's Jelly finish formula is a super shiny buildable translucent nail polish.  The polishes are sheer but have a nice dose of bright color. You can wear them as a sheer color or build them up to a solid glossy color. I like to wear them with 4 coats for solid super shiny color.  The beautiful Jelly Brites colors happened to coordinate perfectly with the purple wave petunias in my the planters on my deck. So you know where my photo shoot took place...on the deck in the beautiful late afternoon daylight! A bee joined me during my Jelly Brites photo shoot and was getting nectar from my purple wave petunias in a curious way that had me fascinated. It was going to the base of the flower on the outside of the flower where the flower meets the stem.  I never saw a bee do that before. Interesting. Anyway..... I will show you how the polish looks as the

Does Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara live up to it's name? Too Faced claims Better Than Sex Mascara is their #1 Selling Prestige Mascara and it's their best mascara. I love you Too Faced, but if this is your best mascara, I would hate to see your worst!!! I'll show you a picture of why it's not one of my favorites.  I used Too Faced Better Than Sex Mascara on one of my prom clients recently. She actually brought her mascara with her to use. I have to say, it made her lashes look dark and long although, not quite as smooth as I like lashes to look. I decided I should try it on myself so I picked up a tube. The mascara packaging is beautiful! The mascara tube is a lovely color and has sturdy weight to it. The brush is an hourglass shape designed to separate, coat and curl the lashes. The mascara is carbon black and is supposed to give dark, thick, long lashes with just one coat. Add more coats for more drama. Here is a portion of the packaging bo
