Must Have: Kiss Everlasting Gel Polish System

Ladies, if you're looking for a affordable gel system check out the Kiss Everlasting Gel!

• High-gloss shine, chip-free colour in 3 simple steps: protect, colour, seal & shine

• Dries instantly, no nicks, dents or scratches

• Lasts up to 14 days

• Won't damage, natural nails, soaks off in minutes 

This is the perfect alternative for ladies who are trying to save money this year. Think about it getting gel nails at the salon costs $40+ and that's not including tax & tip.  For the cost of one trip you can get the Kiss® Everlasting Gel Polish Colour Gel Starter System ($29.97) + LED Gel Lamp ($34.47)!

If that doesn't sway you.. did you know that you can layer the gels to make simple nail art!!

Don't quote me on it but look at the cute "design" I did below.

I got several compliments on it and I really surprised people when I said it I did it on my own with a gel polish. I can't wait to try out more designs!  For reference I used the gels Lush & Ballet. Perfect combo!

Are you a fan of gel polishes?

What's in my Makeup Bag: Date Night Edition

I hope everyone had a great Valentine`s Day!

After taking to a few ladies on twitter, I noticed that some people are waiting for Friday & Saturday to have a date night. I decided to do the same and thought it would be cool to share my makeup bag.

This is not my daily bag. This is just a small bag for when I`m gone out for a few hours.

1. NIVEA Lip Butter  in Vanilla & Macademia.
This is the perfect product to put on before you put on your lipstick. If you`re not into colour, wear it alone. It has with Shea Butter and Almond Oil to keep your lips super soft.

2. Make Up For Ever PRO Finish Foundation
If I need to touch up. This is all I need.

3. L`occitane Lavender Hand Cream The scent of lavender makes me calm. Plus this cream is amazing. It`s also enriched with shea butter and lavender essential oil from Haute-Provence.

4. Maybelline - Color Sensational® Vivids Lipstick in On Fire Red
Perfect vivid red for a night out.

5. Maybelline Rocket mascara
I hardly need a mascara touch up but If I do this is my go to mascara.

6. Tea Tree Oil Facial Blotting Tissues
I keep these handy to soak up my oily t-zone. Since they are made with tea tree oil it will control my blemishes.

These flirty, feminine shades beg to be adored while showing off your charming side. Dangerously smooth and delightfully tempting, this lip-loving lipstick provides colour-infused luxury for your lips.

Valentine's Day Look with Maybelline

I recently received some great Maybelline products. Instead of doing individual reviews, I decided why not do a makeup look with them! This look was done just in time for Valentine's day! I decided to stray away from the traditional soft colors like pinks on the lid and try something different. 

I used some of the new 2013 releases to create a simple look!
