July beauty haul

-
This month has been rather toned down in the makeup haul department.

How did I collect so many soaps?

My items are seen below:


Two of these palettes contain very bright colors, perfect for a night time clubby look.  The third palette is more muted and smoky - this one can be worn for daytime.



I bought this Elf spray before, so I tend to buy one whenever I see that it is available.



The Frozen illustrations caught me, I don't even know if that nail polish is for kids or adults.
I'm still gonna try it.
The LA Girl Spice blush was on sale for a couple of months.  I decided to finally buy it so I could try it out later.





Jolly Rancher and Crayola - what more can I say?  There is a Wet n Wild lipstick in the middle.  Those lipsticks are popular and usually scarce.


I picked up these soaps at various craft markets. One is made with mango, one with lemongrass.  Three of them are homemade and products of Trinidad and Tobago.

Easter at the Market Fashion Event

 The Hotel Normandie was the venue for the very informal  Easter at the Market fashion event. Some of Trinidad's local designers showcased their most recent pieces as the models glided gracefully down the staircase of the hotel's lobby. These designers include Ecliff Elie, Delia Alleyne and Lisa See Tai.  The pieces shown ranged from silky pops of color to dark, geometric patterns. Here are some designs:  My time at the show was short, as I had other things to do that day.  However, it was definitely time well spent at a very picturesque location!

City Color Mousse Primer review: Bargain beauty

-
Image
This photo is not mine I bought this item at a local beauty supply store (really can't remember the price).  This primer comes in a pretty small package (approx. 0.33oz) and has mild, sweet scent of jasmine. The product needs to be rubbed between the fingers before applying, as shown in the following video: Unfortunately, I didn't find this video until a few months after I started using the product. After I saw the video, I realised that I was using the primer wrong all this time. This photo is not mine The product is supposed to mattify oily skin and since that is my skin type, I put it to the test. On a hot day, the primer kept me matte for about three hours.  It lasted through the workday when the weather was cool. I would not recommend this product for those with very oily skin. You can check out the product on the City Color Cosmetics  website .

                          I have to admit , these Creme of Nature products have been lifesavers for my hair!  Since I decided to buy these products just for the heck of it, I don't regret my purchases.  These have been my go-to products for a little over two months and I am totally satisfied with the results.     1.  Creme of Nature Moisture & Shine shampoo.  This sulfate - free product lathers up well and rinses out leaving hydrated, clean hair. 2.  Creme of Nature Leave - In Hair Milk.   I apply this after I condition my hair and also as a daily moisturiser. 3.  Creme of Nature Pudding Perfection Curl Enhancing Creme This is the last step in my hairdressing routine.  As the name states, its pudding - like consistency keeps my hair moist so it does not dry out and get crunchy.   The label says it can also be used with heat t...
