Marcelle Lux Gloss Sheer - Nectar Review

Marcelle is the cosmetics and skin care brand that offers every woman high quality, effective and affordable products. Hypoallergenic and perfume-free; women of all ages believe in Marcelle products.

I was sent Marcelle Lux Gloss Sheer - Nectar to review for you girlies! First off I've never tried any Marcelle products, so this gloss was a great introduction.



Marcelle Lux Gloss Sheer is an absolute gem that will illuminate your pout with a touch of glittering glamour.
  • Easy to wear, Lux Gloss Sheer gives your lips that delicious wet look shine while also revitalizing them. Each shade provides the sheerest of coverage and the most brilliant shimmering iridescence.
  • Exceptionally comfortable, Lux Gloss is infused with a unique Vita-Lip complex, a combination of lipopeptid-based amino acids proven to stimulate collagen production and provide optimum hydration. Your lips are fuller, smoother and plump.
Marcelle Lux gloss comes in 7 different colors and are suitable for all skin tones!

 
 This gloss is very smooth not cakey or clumpy, even though it has shimmer! I hate products which make your lips feel like your rubbing pieces of sand paper together!! LOL
Swatch of nectar with one swipe
It's really easy to build up color because it's sheer! I also have to add that it photographs beautifully :)

Tip from Marcelle:

For natural-looking lips, use Lux Gloss Sheer over nude lips. If you’re looking for a splash of glamour, simply apply a coat of Lux Gloss over your lipstick.

Overall this is definitely a product I would buy.

Eshakti.com clothing review + $250.00 and 25 other prizes giveaway!!!!!

I was contacted by Eshakti.com to do a clothing review. I've never heard of the company so I made sure I did my research before I accepted their offer. 

Quick Eshakti.com facts:

  • It's an online clothing store that makes "custom clothes to your size, your style. YES, YOU GET TO TWEAK THE STYLE - the length, the neckline, the sleeve -to your taste."
  • Sizing 0 to 26W
  • They ship in 3 business days. Yes, even custom clothes ship in 3 days. And the transit time from us to the customer is typically 4 days. So in 7 business days or less. 
Once I read that I was sold! Finding clothes that fit perfectly is a struggle! I constantly have to go up a size to fit my bust but then its way to loose on my small waist. I know many of you have a similar story, whether it's a bust, hip or booty problem.

After looking at the website I decided to get a super cute ruffle dress.

 The Fit:
I ordered the dress when I was 8 pounds heavier (go me..lol), so the elastic band is a livesaver. I can also add a belt to the dress to dress it up :) I plan on pairing it with some bronze heels & leather jacket.
Quality:
This is not cheap filmsy cotton! It's quite sturdy.

Prices:
The prices are reasonable if you take in account the tailing to make each item specific.

Overall:
This dress is super cute & I am satsified!

Winners Bargin Haul- Urban Decay for 70 cents!?!?

I love Winners! Since I have alot of USA followers, so I'll give you a little background on winners! Its a mix of Marshalls and TJ Maxx :)

I think its the whole searching to find a good deal is exhilarating! LOL.
The first Item I saw was this nail polish set! I loved the colors but I couldn't possibly spent $7.00 on it since one was missing.

So I got it for $4.99 for the whole pack! After searching the brand "Goldie" online, I found out that they sell at Bath and Bodyworks for $9.00 each. That's a very good deal. Look at the colors close up.



The best thing I got was Urban Decay for 70 cents!!! Did you hear me under a dollar :) That is amazing since it's $14.00 on their website.



I also got OPI RapiDry Spray for $3.00. I found it online for about $20.00. This product has amazing claims:
Make your nails dry in rapid time with this OPI RapiDry Spray. Ensure that your nails are dry and won’t smear before you start using your hands again with this clever nail drying spray that dries your nails to perfection in minutes.
I got a pop beauty eye cake palette (Violet Eyes) for $2.00. I've never used the brand before but the colors are nice.

Lastly, Urban Decay deluxe eyeshadow in HEAT for $2.50.. another deal.

What do you think of the deals? Have you used any of the products?
