Bellami 20 Inch Hair Extension REVIEW!

I'm here today to review some hair extensions! This brand "Bellami" is very popular within the YouTube and Instagram community. Their most popular selling hair set are the 22 inch clip in extension. When deciding what length to get, I couldn't find many reviews on the 20 inch set. I went with 20 inch clip in set and couldn't be more happier! In this review video, I hit a couple key points you should keep in mind when purchasing hair extensions.

Quick Facts

Price- $159.99

Total Weight- 160 grams

Total Pieces- 10 wefts
- 1 : 8” weft
- 1 : 7” weft
- 2 : 6”wefts
- 2 : 4” wefts
- 4 : 1.5” wefts
Length- 20 inches

Color Shade- 6 (Chestnut Brown)

I'm so impressed with the quality of this hair! There has been no damage or breakage to the hair since purchasing. I dyed the hair due to the fact its was just one shade lighter then my hair color. (I do color my hair and also have highlights in right now.) I wash them and use hot tools to style them and not once has any hair fallen out. The extensions blend in with my natural hair perfectly. I don't wear these on a daily basis but just for special occasions. I always get compliments on my hair every time I go out! I would definitely recommend this hair set to anyone who wants some more length and volume to their hair. I have a before and after picture in the video if you want to see for reference the difference the extensions gives.

Sonia Kashuk Self Tanning Towelettes REVIEW!

Memorial Day Weekend is nearby and I wanted to get some color before joining any festivities! I have seen these tanning towelettes in Target for over a year now. I've never tried tanning towelettes before and haven't seen many reviews using this particular brand. I decided to try them out and see if it actually delivers. Sonia Kashuk Self Tanning Towelettes retail for $9.99 without tax. The box includes 4 towelettes and meant for the face and body.

What it says on the box:

• A quick and simple way to get an even, sunless glow for fair to medium skin tones within hours
• Easy to apply and dries in seconds
• Exfoiliates skin for even and consistent tanning
• Individually sealed, perfect for use on the go
• One application lasts up to 7 days

What it claims:

 "Each Sonia Kashuk golden tanning towelettes is concentrated with a self tanning formula to give you a quick even application with no streaking, mess or fuss. Golden tanning towelettes will produce a uniform, natural-looking glow within 2 to 4 hours. For a deep tan, apply another tanning towelette after 4 hours. To maintain your tan, reapply as needed, or 2 to 3 times per week. For a darker result, apply more frequently. Light citrus fragrance, Results may vary."

Directions:

Unfold towelette and apply to dry, clean skin in circular motion. Wash hands immediately.

My experience:

I exfoliated my skin prior to using these wipes and followed the directions. One wipe WILL NOT cover your entire body. I had to use two wipes for a full application. One wipe for the bottom half of the body and the other for the upper half. I noticed the towelette dries extremely fast. Since the towelette is clear you can't really tell the area you went over or did not go over. Which can lead to not having a smooth application. The color did develop within hours and looked very natural. I'm very pale with sensitive skin and it gave a slight natural tan. I did have blotchy-ness in some areas due to not knowing if you went over the area well. I tried to go over the area with a third towelette the next day and that seem to blend everything in. I almost forgot to mention that YOU'RE PALMS WILL TURN ORANGE! I suggest you wear gloves when applying this all over your body. The color seemed to last the seven days. Would I repurchase this again? Maybe. If I already have a tan and want to get a little bit darker, I would repurchase. If you're really fair and pale I wouldn't suggest it for the price and the fact you only get 4 towelettes. I'm going to try other brands of tanning towlettes and do a comparison post in the near future.

Have you tried this product before?

Nail Polish of the Day

 

Today's manicure screams Spring with the floral detailing. I used Sally Hansen Insta-Dri nail polish in Lively Lilac on every other finger. Then I applied White on White by China Glaze on two fingers. I found these floral nail stickers in my beauty draw. I don't have any idea where they came from but I'm pretty sure you can find similar nail sticker on eBay or amazon! I love how this manicure came out and received many compliments on it as well.

(Excuse the appearance of the nail bottles, it exploded in one of my bags. Don't you hate when that happens?)

Mayaxo.com REVIEW!

This relatively new online fashion store contacted me to review some of their products recently. MayaXO.com is a trendy, affordable fashion online store based out of China. The owner told me that they add new items constantly onto the website. Going through the website there were a few things that appealed to me and some did not. It's all personal preference and personal style so it's up to you whether you like it or not. I got to choose two items of my choice which were a top and a dress. Shipping does take awhile since it's coming from China, so keep that in mind when purchasing from the website. The clothing varies in sizing so make sure of measurements before ordering. Some clothing items come in one size fits all. Also there's some clothing items that have the usual small, medium, or large option.

 

I chose this see through tank and it came in a variety different colors. I choose to get it in the color green and I love it! The detailing is very unique and the quality is terrific in my opinion. I thought this was a great Spring/Summer tank and I already see different outfits with this piece in mind.

 

I was really excited to get this in the mail! The dress looked super cute in person and it's exactly my style. Once I tried it on I was slightly disappointed that it was completely see through. Also I'm 5'3 in height and found the dress a little bit too short for my taste. If you are taller than me, this dress would be way too short for you. To fix the see through problem I would have to buy a slip to wear under the dress to feel more comfortable in it. 

Other than that I have no other complaints with the items I have received. The clothing items are hit or miss but that's with any online store. Let me know what you bought from this website!

Instagram SHOUTOUT: PhoneCasesForSale

As you guys know I started doing Etsy Store Shoutout posts on blog recently. Somehow I ended up on this instagram profile that sells phone cases. I kept scrolling down their page and just wanted all the cases they had posted pictures of. So today's post is a little different hence the name Instagram Shoutout. I'm so glad I found this Instgram seller because these cases will be added to my on growing phone case collection. Many of you are probably asking yourself "How do you order?" You have to contact the seller through email which is available on their profile. The seller had awesome communication with me throughout the whole process. The seller is based out of Canada so keep that in mind when waiting for your package. The cases are great quality and I just love everything about them. The first one is a mint colored case with gold studs in a cross form. The second case is hot pink with silver spikes all over and don't worry you won't hurt yourself! 

I certainly recommend this seller if you want some new phone cases.

FalseEyelashesStore.com REVIEW

I'm back with another review on a great eyelash online store! I found FalseEyelashesStore.com randomly and I'm glad I did. This website is great for makeup lovers who enjoy putting on some fake eyelashes. The website has a great selection to choose from and is very affordable. You cannot beat the incredible quality you receive with these lashes. I chose to get two sets of different style lashes to try out. I've used one pair 5 times already and it's still in fantastic condition! I without a doubt recommend this website to any makeup artist, makeup enthusiast, and anyone who loves good quality lashes.

 

This style has to be my favorite out of the two styles chosen. I'm such a fan of the invisible band on these lashes. You can apply these with or without having to put on liner which is a great option to have. I used these lashes on a makeup tutorial I will be putting on YouTube soon. Here's how the lashes look on...

This pair of lashes is more on the dramatic and fuller side. This one doesn't have an invisible band but I still love this style. I haven't worn them yet but I cannot wait to create a look with these! Order some lashes you won't regret your purchase.

Nail Polish of the Day

The first day of Spring is in a couple of days so why not jump start with a fresh pastel nail color! I'm so excited for the Spring weather but I know for us New Yorkers the Spring weather is usually bi polar. According to the weather forecast we will be expecting some snow next week. Anyways I chose this gorgeous milky yellow nail polish from China Glaze called Lemon Fizz. This week is just a simple manicure with no accents or nail art just clean and fresh.

Nail Polish of the Day

I have been trying to get into nail art as you see. I saw a video on YouTube from MissJenFabulous posted for beginners. She had 3 different nail art designs and I decided to try out the half moon nail trend. It was actually really simple to do and the secret is by using reinforcements sticks to get the shape. Of course since this was my try, it didn't come out perfect what so ever. I first used Sinful Colors (Paris) as the moon color then used Sinful Colors (Rise and Shine) for the rest of the nail.
