o.b.® PRO COMFORT® Regular tampons giveaway!

I'm interested in finding out about various different things but there are some stuff that you can find out through conversations with your friends and some stuff that you need the internet for (if you know what I mean). I was asked to try a pack of o.b.® PRO COMFORT® Regular tampons and share my honest options. When I find a brand and I like, I do not venture out. After many years, I decided to let's see what else is out there. Who knows, I might find a new favourite.
o.b.® PRO COMFORT® Regular tampons with Fluid-Lock® grooves for locked-in leak protection. The only one with SilkTouch™ cover for ultimate comfort and protection
I won't lie.. I was a little bit shocked when I first received the package. It was extremely small and it could fit in the palm of my hand. I swear I thought I received the wrong package. The biggest shocker was that there was no applicators. 

The Scoop:
The size!
I was able to put them in one of my mini makeup bag without any hassle.
Also when I traveled out of country they took up NO space.

Less Waste
Did you know without the applicator  o.b.® saves 58% of waste compared to some other brands?

Detailed instructions
Each pack comes with an very detailed sheet that gives you step-by-step instruction and FAQs.
If you're an applicator user then you will be happy to see this sheet.

Patience
I want to be 100% honest. I didn't get it the first few tries. Which is okay because I been dependant on an applicator for years but once I got it- it wasn't bad at all. Similar to any other tampon just pull the string once you're ready to dispose of it.

o.b.® PRO COMFORT® Regular are available in a 18 or 40 pack.

Have you tried o.b.® tampons before?
Well o.b.® is giving 50 Spiced Beauty readers the opportunity to get an 18-count box FREE!

Holiday: Kat Von D Immortal Lash & Line Kit

This holiday is all about the lashes. 
If you cannot pay to get some falsies put on... why not build them yourself. 
Kat Von D Immortal Lash & Line Kit ($24 CAN) is the best way to get your eyes ready this holiday. 
The kit comes with full-size Immortal Lash 24HR Mascara and deluxe-size Tattoo Eye Liner. 
Immortal Lash is a cutting-edge, 24-hour mascara that powers lashes to their maximum potential with a first-of-its-kind three-in-one brush that lengthens, curls, and coats every lash in ultra-black drama.  
Tattoo Liner, the bestselling liquid liner, provides the ultimate precision, versatility and control with innovative brush tip design crafted with 325 ultrafine bristles.
The brush is amazing and gives me insane volume.
After application my lashes are still soft which makes removal a breeze at night.
My only tip is that the formula is wet..so do not immediately blink or sneeze after application.

The eyeliner is nice as well. 
It's waterproof but just like the mascara- removes really easy with wipes. Since I like my liner a deep rich black, I had to go over it a few times to get my desirable look.

This kit is now available on Sephora online for your favourite makeup lover!



Nudestix: Go nude, but better SWATCHES

I feel like 2015 is going to be about natural looks. 
The point is to look polished but never over done. 
If that's you.. then should check out Nudestix.  

Their slogan is "Go nude, but better".
They come packaged up in a sleek black tin along which has a large mirror and a pencil sharpener.

The line is actually the brain child of Jenny Frankel who is a chemical engineer with over 20 years of beauty experience.  Her muses are her daughters Ally & Taylor. I had the opportunity to try out some products from the line. Immediately, I fell in love with Nudestix concealer pencil ($28.00 Cdn). The consistency is amazing. I had NO idea if the colour would match me but it ended up being perfect! I'm a deep 8. That is the darkest colour in the line. The colour is not muddy or red, it's the perfect matte chocolate brown. I should also add the pencil is very soft so it glides instead of drags.

Left to right: Angel, Deep8 & Ripe

I also tried out a lip/cheek pencil ($28.00 Cdn) in Ripe (not sure if it has the right colour for me but I loved the consistency as well).  I want to try sin. Also I tried one of the magnetic eye colours ($28.00 Cdn) in Angel. If not used over the lid, this would make a great inner eye colour.
TIP: 
"If you have an oily lid like me, you’ll love the way the magnetic eye color never creases, fades or smudges."- Ally
Nudestix is sold at Sephora.

Stocking Stuffers: Flower Beauty Rollerball Eau de Toilette

I struggle with finding stocking stuffers to add to Christmas stockings. 
Chocolate and Candy canes are a must but how about something that smells good? 
I was recently introduced to Flower Beauty and fell in love with their Rollerballs. 
For under $10.00 ($9.97 CAN) you can fall in love with three unique scents.
From Left to Right:
Feeling delicate and soft?
Try Cherished!
A comforting and nuzzly powdery floral.

Feeling romantic and daring?
Try Sultry!
A sensual oriental floral that wraps you in a seductive trail of creamy florals, alluring spices and sultry vanilla woods.

Feeling strong and happy?
Try Radiant!
A striking and confident sparkling floral blooming with dewy greens and lush freshness.

If I had to pick a fave I'd pick Sultry.  It smells fun but has a sexy playful side.
