September 2012

STARBOX


I am so excited and feel like i have waited sooo long for my first Starbox to come. Just from looks of the package I knew when I opened it up, it was going to be good. I can honestly say Starbox has knocked out a few of my other monthly subscriptions. Now this is not samples of various brands this is strickly Starlooks brand and it contains full sized makeup items. They so far have been so underrated and i am not sure why because my first box was amazing. I will can proudly say I will be continuing my subscription for months to come! I look forward to review monthly boxes, not just for myself but for you all! If you have not signed up I suggest you do so before its to late!Remember it's ONLY $15 a month.... Here is  closer look at how amazing my September Starbox was.........


September is a very special month for us? Why? Because there are not 3, not 4 not even 5 products for you this month… THERE ARE SIX, FULL-SIZED PRODUCTS IN THIS BOX!









We just had to send you one of our favorite products, which is one of our Signature Eye Shadow Palettes. Inside this palette are 5, FULL SIZE EYE SHADOW.

Signature Eye Shadow Palettes




Each shadow is an opalescent sheen of color for the eye base. These colors can be used alone, or combined with any other matte or shimmer shadows from the Starlooks collection, to enhance or alter color!


MY THOUGHTS:    
I have to admit I do like neutral colors a bit better and tend to avoid the pastels. Even though the colors threw me off I was still excited to try the product itself. 
Let me start with WOW... Look like I will be using those pastels. :) ha-ha No really I almost afraid of sharing how incredible these really are especially for there price. Don't miss out.
These shadows are honestly one of the most pigmented eye shadows I have tired in a long time. I use the wet / dry shadow brush to apply, which makes them go on very easily. I often just use one single color at a time and tend to apply different color liner which makes them sparkle / shimmer in the shadow pop out! 
They stay true to there color all day, look fabulous, and are so incredible easy to apply. It is so easy that it can be applied with your finger if that's what you prefer. I know I have a couple friends who insist there finger tip is more accurate than a precision brush! LOL!!! 
The coverage is also build able meaning you can make the color as sheer or as intense as you want. Remembering these are sheer and you can only achieve a certain amount of color! I have found that these also can be used as a great base for all STARLOOKS other shades.There are by far the softest, lightest color but vibrant in shimmer i have come across. But let me just say its not like over baring, blinded by the shimmer. These are honestly the perfect shade for a natural base. I can not wait to try the others! Keeping my fingers crossed for some nudes or neutrals.
 

                                     Clear Eye Shadow Primer

And, of course we’ve included the perfect item to prep your eye before you use these colors, our Clear Eye Shadow Primer. This will hold shadow for hours, and keep it glistening and vibrant!

MY THOUGHTS: 
Spending all that time and effort on your eye makeup will be blown away unless you have a good base underneath to keep it vibrant and lasting all day. Well I have now just discovered my new favorite Primer for a price you can not beat. 
 I was skeptical of this primer due to its un popularity due to being new and up and coming. As always, I decided to give this a try. With not too high of expectations I was Pleasantly surprised!  
 I didn’t experience any budging, smudging, creasing, or migration when I used this as a primer underneath my eye shadows. Colors definitely didn’t look muted at all, and they held their intensity throughout the day. I applied it the first time with a concealer brush and the second with just my bare finger. It worked better for me when using my finger since i could feel how much was being applied and where since it is so smooth and clear texture.  It is a clear, matte-sh primer that merely smooths over the lid and acts to hold and bond all the eyeshadow together. It definitely "HOLDS" up to its description:  lightweight, extends the wear, smooths the surface, and maximizes color.


Want tips on how to apply these products? Check out the Starlooks YouTube Channel:
WWW.STARLOOKS.COM/STARLOOKSMD for a video tutorial dedicated to this September Starbox!


SURPRISE!
In this Starbox we’ve included some beautiful “ Eye Jewelry”- Opal and champagne colored Swarovski, flat-back eye crystals! Simply apply with lash glue to compliment the tips or base of your lashes, or frame the eye glistening sparkle.
MY THOUGHTS:
Thinking of dressing up your eyes for a special night? Maybe a romantic date, anniversary or even a prom? What better way than with "Eye Jewelry". These jewels are so much fun. You can do so many different things with them, that provide fun details to your eye lid that no one else will have.
*Outer EyeI love the look of outer eye Jewelry. A single stone or row of three stones displayed on the outer eye is beautiful. Matching the colors of the stones to your outfit is a cool and dramatic effect. 
 *Inner Eye Jewelry can be equally dramatic. People won't be able to take their eyes off you with your tiny diamond flashing! (Place a small stone on the bottom, inner corner of your eye. 



And don’t forget, every Starbox comes with a mystic quartz crystal. These crystals attract energy, help maintain focus and are the ultimate symbol of beauty! We hope you collect them in a glass jar to create a brush holder for your Starlooks Brushes-enjoy!

MY THOUGHTS: I absolutely love the idea of giving these little crystals out with each box. I think they bring great character, depth and spirituality to each box. I look forward to the enjoyment I ill get when revealing which crystal I will be adding to my collection, with each box.

Okay well not only is Aromaleigh excited about there re-opening but so am I. LOL! So recently I had the pleasure of being introduced to Aromaleigh by a mutual friend. So she swore on this brand so I decided to give it the proper 2 week trial.  If you don't know me by know, I am always ready and willing to try a new product ESPECIALLY when someone is that adamant about it. :) Here is a little info about Aromaleigh Mineral Cosmetics, as well as what I decided to try....Hope you like it....

25% OFF weekly sale through 11/15!  "DUSK TO DAWN" Overnight Mineral Treatment (based on v1 "Nocturne") - Deep shade now available!
Dusk to Dawn... overnight mineral treatment (previously known as "Nocturne"from Aromaleigh v.1.)  
A mineral formula with skin-nourishing vitamins, herbal extracts and amino-acid rich silk powder. Our formula doesn't contain minerals that just make your skin "look" good... it contains ingredients that will make your skin ACT better. Active ingredients that provide beneficial purpose for your skin's wellbeing.
 Made in USA
How To Apply: Before bedtime, apply a thin layer to clean skin with a flocked sponge. If you wish to use a basic moisturizer, make sure that it is well-absorbed first. (I realize that many of you will wish to continue using your moisturizer or facial oils at bedtime... other night-time mineral treatments recommend that you forgo your moisturizer altogether. I don't feel that this is possible for all skin types... or you may need to adjust your routine as you transition to this product. As the saying goes, "Your own mileage may vary". You may find you need to continue with moisturization, you may find you don't. It depends entirely on your own skin type, your age, the humidity of the environment in your home, etc... 

MY THOUGHTS:  I was going back and forth on what I should use to apply this. (Brush or sponge)Well after some thinking, I decided to go with the brush. I tried this out  for the recommend time which was 2 weeks if you were wondering. :) The finish was light, yet it was matte so I was pretty surprised with the overall lightness of the product.

When I woke up, Because you apply it at night, I immediately ran over to the mirror and started to check my face out. Right of the bat I notice how smooth my skin looked and what a great job it does combating any oily skin. The skin on my face was as matte as it has ever been or could get.... not a trace of oiliness insight.  Overall the product definitely did what it was supposed to and I would love to start trying them out more seriously. It amazes me that you can use this powder on your face and it does not clog your pores. A+

Let me start by saying I am so excited to do a review on one of most,  most desirable products not just by me but by friends, family and followers. ENJOY /SKINJOY
         Before I jump right into the products and there details, let me give you a quick gist of what my hair texture is like...So my hair is EXTREMELY thick, Like a lioness lol.. Its long, dark, wavy, dry and has been color dyed for over 13 years. Its has uncontrollable frizz and flyaway's at all times so as you can tell I am in need of some rescuing.. Needless to say I have been a hair product Junky for years and have tired many if not most products and only a few get the job done as well as ENJOY does!

Make sure you enter the Giveaway HERE


Enjoy / Skinjoy Quench & Soothe

 Looking for a little relief for dry hair and skin this summer? Check out our Quench and Soothe System featuring three great hair and skin treatment options. 

 


Eliminate frizz and add shine with ENJOY Shine & Smooth. It provides smoothness and frizz-busting benefits to any style or hair as it locks in moisture while blocking out humidity.

Top off your summer hydrating regime with SKINJOY Hand and Body Lotion - A non-greasy formula blended with vitamins and healing ingredients that smoothes, soothes and hydrates hands and body.  Enjoy / Skinjoy Quench & Soothe System – a $67.63 retail value
  


 Here are the details to each product so you guys can understand each one a little better individually.

ENJOY Hair and Skin Treatment Oil
 Is an incredibly non-greasy, lightweight and alcohol-free formula that instantly penetrates and absorbs into hair and skin, dramatically reducing drying time. Perfect for all hair types, it smoothes, conditions and seals hair, leaving an amazing shine. The 3.4 oz. or 100ml.  bottle of ENJOY Hair and Skin Treatment Oil retails for $29.95.
My Thoughts:   
This stuff is wonderful! I have never found ANY thing for my hair and I was crazy for...until now. I am a wash and wear hair person and I absolutely hate the feeling of product in my hair. I have very long thick wavy hair and only wash it twice a week so styling products end up feeling and looking gross. This product is perfect. Its incredibly light and has a soft pleasant scent.... I have a pour and wipe technique that keeps me from loosing any product. With this oil a little goes a long way. Just pour it in your hands, rub your hands together and start at the ends. I never go above the ears because my hair will start the look a little greasy. Any extra on my hands I just rub into my skin. Voila my hair looks good, frizz free and healthy. This will last a long time. I've had it for a month and the level is still in the neck of the bottle.




 SKINJOY Hand and Body Lotion 
Enjoy SkinJoy Hand & Body Lotion Smoothes, soothes and hydrates hands and body. A non-greasy formula blended with vitamins and healing ingredients. 10oz / 300ml size retails for $17.94 (USD). 
My Thoughts:
I finally had the pleasure of trying the Skinjoy products and let me tell you - I LOVE them! They are such great quality, just like all Enjoy products! It's unique and revolutionary approach to skin care takes the guesswork out of achieving and maintaining great skin. It definitely gives a great hydrating sensation that you can not deny. I have only been using this a couple days now but needless to say the rough spots are softer and in touch and looks. I look forward to continuing the use and replenishing my skin. xoxo



  
ENJOY Shine & Smooth
 Eliminate frizz and get incredible shine with ENJOY Shine & Smooth. The non-greasy silicone-based formula makes hair soft and silky without weighing it down or building up. It adds instant luster and smoothness to any style or hair type and is great for both hair and skin as it locks in moisture while blocking out humidity. It’s also an amazing skin softener after your favorite moisturizer. ENJOY Shine & Smooth is available in a 4 oz size for $19.74 (USD) retail. 
 My Thoughts: 
  I have used a lot of different shine and smooth products in the past and this one is one of my top favorites. Be careful not to over do it. I use about a penny/nickel size amount working from the bottom of my hair up. Followed by with a brush. You might have to brush your hair again a few min. later, but the results will be amazing. It puts a thin coat over your hair to help prevent damage from your hot blow-dryer. Soft and silky hair with the best shine ever. And not a greasy shine. I got so many complements on my hair when I use this product. Plus it smells great... a fruity smell. The smell does linger, but I kinda like that. When you get a chance to splurge on hair care products, Enjoy is a must try.

Thank You again Purely Visual
