Chanel Soft Glow Blush Horizon de Chanel




This blush is awesome! What attracted me the most is all the different colors it has to make a unique color. I also loved that it did not contain bronzer because I feel it's too dramatic for spring but for summer it is perfect since when it's summer, you want to look fresh and bronzed. This blush is perfect to give you that soft glow for the daytime, it makes you look very natural. What I love about Chanel blushes is that they do not make you look so fake and cakey which is a big plus for me. I mean who wants to walk around looking like they have some pink dirt their faces. It has some glitter to it but not too much. I personally fell in love with this as soon as I saw the picture online. It gives with a brush in a seprate velvet bag, but I do not recommend it since it does not put any blush on.I use my blush brush from Chanel, I do not know the name of it but it's angeled. If you are looking to look natural in the spring or summer, this is definitely for you.
Five stars for looking natural and flawless!
It retails for $45.00

Chanel Soft Touch Eyeshadow 91 Tigerlily








The eyeshadow is exactly what it is called. It is a soft touch of orange on the eyelids. When I first saw it online, I thought it was going to be very pigmented but then I remembered Chanel does not make exotic colors. I went to go check it out in store and it was the most beautiful color I have ever seen in my life. It is like a soft tigerlily flower color. The color does have glitter to it but it does like tacky. The other color they had was called Rose Mauve? I am not too sure but it did not catch my attention. I would possibly pair this eyeshadow with brown since it would look so cute in the summer and also to make it stand out more. I have never been a fan of orange but this is pretty much acceptable.

I also give this 5 stars because I have never seen a color so elegant before. When I think Orange, I think of Halloween.

The eyeshadow retails for $28.50 and it is limited edition. Once it's gone, it's gone.

Chanel Natural Finish Pressed Powder 150 Jasmin





I had to get this since it had glitter! Yes, I am a sucker for anything with any that shines and sparkles! But this powder is awesome! It is so light and gives you shine all over your face. You can just put it all over your face or you can just use it on your cheeks, depends where you want it to be noticed. I personally am going to use it for all over because the glitter isn't so dramatic, it's nice and elegant, just how Chanel is known for. I took a picture of me being outside so you can get the idea of how it looks on and how shiny it is. I have oily skin and I have found this to be no problem on my skin. Remember when you have oily skin, you want to use powder since it absorbs the oil on your face. I do not think it provides enough coverage so you might want to use foundation. I found Chanel's aqualumiere foundation to be perfect for this since it is light, or you can use whatever liquid foundation you want of your choice. I will possibly be using it by itself when I go to school, just so I can feel glamourous. I know it is still winter but hey Spring is a couple months away!

I give it 5 stars out of 5 stars since I am always looking for something to make me sparkle without looking soo dramatic.

Also, I do not reccommend to use the makeup pad that it comes with. Use it with a brush to get more of an effect.

The price is $45.00

Enjoy Luxury Shampoo Sulfate Free




I had a request to do a sulfate free shampoo and this by far has to be my favorite. This shampoo is made by Enjoy. Their products are to die for since everything that I have used from them leaves my hair feeling good but the it can be a little pricey.
My brother being the nerd that he is gave me a lecture about buying sulfate free shampoos. He basically told me that shampoos contain levels of alkaline which are usually 6.5 on the pH scale therefore the difference between a sulfate free and a regular shampoo is that it is around 5.0 to 6.0 on the ph Scale which is a good thing since nails, hair, and skin go at 4.5 on the pH scale. Therefore, using a sulfate free shampoo will not strip your color of your hair, whether or not you die it and it will not leave it dry. I know I have used plenty of shampoos in the past that have left my hair feeling that it was about to fall off.
This Enjoy shampoo left my hair feeling silky and squeeky clean. I felt that it actually took the dryness off my scalp but I feel I need more moisture though due to my curls.
My brother on the other hand, his hair completely changed. I know he is going to get mad at me for talking about him on here. lol. My brother has medium hair and it is straight. Before it looked dry but I noticed a change in his hair. It looks and feels silky and it did not leave his hair greasy at all. His hair color looks more colorful before his hair looked like a faded out brown. (My bro does not dye his hair)
Anyways, if you have straight hair, dry scalp, normal, etc. this product is for you. If you have curly hair, I would suggest you find something a little bit more with moisture. Also to complete the shampoo, you need to buy the Enjoy Luxury Conditioner. If you have any questions, let know.

The shampoo costs about $17.99 at Hans in Hacienda Heights,CA.
I'm pretty sure you can get a better deal online though.
