Birthday Haul ... I know past over due

Ladies

This is so over due it's not funny I'm posting this now but my birthday was in April, just been so busy and I'm going to try to get on my content a little more better.

 This year it was between Glamglow and BITE beauty products I know that Glamglow isn't CF but it was the one thing I didn't already own. They are small testers so 1-2 times the product would be finished anyway, also never really tried Glamglow and wanted to know what all the hype was. Also when I was in Sephora I got my next foundation which is the new Cover-FX  power play one ( I'm shade N20). Took me tones of samples and color matching to see which one was the best match from me, I think I tried 4 different ones and I got a sample of the Power Play twice to really make sure I liked it. It so happens on the other side across from Cover-FX is the IT Cosmetics which is brand new to our store, checking out their products was a bad idea. So found that they make a makeup cleansing balm kinda similar to Cliniques that everyone seemed to like a lot. So I hope it works as good as the oils and balms I've tried before going CF. Expect full reviews on these 2 products, later on, the thing I'm not proud of is the Glamglow thing but I'll try it and then if I don't like it it's going to a friend.

Have you tried any of these products before? or what others IT products have you used and loved?

So with that saying, I've been using these products now for 2 months and I absolutely love them. The foundation is a great one and comes in a great shade range. I still find out what works with it and doesn't but think I figured it out for the most part at least.

The IT bye bye make up is OMG where have you been all of my life, it makes taking out my makeup off so much easier and nicer than scrubbing at my face, making sure I have everything off.

NYX Lip Oil

Ladies 

I got this when I was sick with a cold because I thought it could help with my cracked lip issue I was having. Lord this was a life saver especially when you are sick because it sinks right in and lasts without rubbing off whenever you need to blow your nose. It's comfortable and nice to wear under lipsticks and mates, doesn't alter application either.

Pro's
- $9.00 CAN
- Great applicator
- Very soothing and moisturizing
- Almond, avocado, rosehip, and jojoba oil's
- Smells of cherries and with a hint of vanilla
- Is great under lipstick or liquid lipstick
- Not oily at all soaks into your lips very fast
- Not sticky or tacky feeling at all
- Actually helps my split lips when they are really bad.
- Can be found online and in our Shoppers Drug Marts.


Con's
- Nothing I love this product I will repurchase this.

Invisalign Story # 6

Ladies 

Can't believe this but I'm almost done my treatment and journey on straightening my teeth. My last dentist appointment for my last set of trays was the other day, I walked out with tray 22-23. My 23rd tray is my very last one, they are thinking when I go back after to see what 22/23 has done. We will go take a look to see if I need more fine tuning, they are talking about no more than 27 trays which are nice. Rewind to trays 19-22 for those sets I got imaging done so they can take images of how everything was moving and then send them back to Invisalign. That was hard I have a small jaw/mouth and putting a huge wand with a camera all up in there was a little too much for myself, they were very nice and took their time if I needed a break and it was a lot better than doing impression molds. 

Back at it, my top teeth look amazing all in line with each other no teeth sticking out, I've never been so proud of my teeth before this and now I can say my teeth look amazing. My bottom teeth need a little more time, but they are thinking once I'm done the 23rd tray they should be in line with my top ones. If not we will just add a few more trays after I go back to the dentist. Once I'm done with my journey and no more trays, I'll just have to sleep with a tray at night to stop my teeth from shifting back to their old spots. 

I'm very happy with the process and what the outcome of my teeth have been, I will defentaly recommend this process to anyone looking into "adult" braces. 

IT Cosmetics ~ Bye Bye Under eye full concealer

Ladies 

I got this in my March Ispy bag, I was so excited because I heard AMAZING things about it. One thing I'm going to point out is small amount goes a long way like I do 4 dots and it goes a long way and covers everything. The one thing that I'm not used to is the thickness and how fast this sets you to have to work very quickly, doesn't crease but with my skin type, I would set it. I tend to use this on the days where I'm having huge discoloration and random acne pop up, it's a little too much for my skin because I don't need that much product.

Pro's
- Covers everything... like I mean everything
- Waterproof
- Anti-aging
- Blends out with a little help but once you work with it, it blends in so smoothly.
- For my, under eye area, I do about 2-3 little dots and that covers a lot of areas.


Con's
- Little thicker than I'm used too
- Blend out quick if you don't it's harder to blend out, even with a damp B.B.
- Works better blending out with a beauty sponge or B.B, maks brush marks with a brush becaue it is on the thicker side.
