Nature’s Shea Butter had a sale offering 30% off any purchase on their website. I don’t need any shea butter at the moment. LOL! I did order a couple of bars of soap though.
When I previously ordered from the Nature’s Shea Butter website, I received two samples of their soap. One of the soap samples was the Handmade Orange Hibiscus Bar Soap. I tried the sample and loved it!
I also purchased a bar of the Handmade African Black Soap with Shea Butter.
This is another sample of their All Natural Soap I received.
I find myself gravitating towards more natural beauty products. My skin is seeing positive results.

My skin is really enjoying the benefits of using shea butter. As long as I use shea butter, my skin doesn’t get ashy. I previously purchased the Nature’s Shea Butter Sample pack from HauteLook. I shared this with my daughters.
I ordered another sample pack when Nature’s Shea Butter was on HauteLook again.
This time around I received two of the West African Shea Butter. That works for me. 😀

The Cocoa-Shea Butter is my favorite.
Here is the rest of the sample pack.

The contents of my May ipsy Bag are:
Pacifica Mineral Eyeshadow Duo – Duo #2 (Moonbeam and Unicorn)
I always wanted to try one of those microdermabrasion systems. I can’t afford to buy a Clarisonic either. I saw the Nutra Luxe MD Microdermabrasion System being offered on Hautelook. This system was more in my price range.
I definitely saw a difference in the way my skin looked after one use. It did minimize the appearance of my pores and fine lines.

I am at the halfway point of my beauty subscriptions. Now is the time for me to starting thinking about whether or not I want to renew my subscriptions.
The theme of the October ipsy Bag was “Hello Bombshell”.
My bag consisted of:
Another awesome bag from ipsy! For starters the “body builder” mascara really delivered. I don’t need to wear false eyelashes with this mascara. The lip bomb was very pigmented. At first I was concerned if the color was too light. I applied the lip bomb with a little help from a lip liner that was a little darker and the color was fine. The Pequi Oil treatment worked on my natural hair and gave it a nice shine without being greasy. Rocking the winged eyeliner was easy with the Bombshell eyeliner. The Coastal Scents eyeshadow looked nice next to my darker complexion. It was nice break from wearing neutral eyeshadow colors. There were two items from the ipsy bag that really stood out for me. Those items were the Balm What’s Your Type “the body builder” mascara and Be a Bombshell Eyeliner. This was a great combo for dressing up my eyes.
The theme of the October Birchbox was Goop.
My box consisted of:
I actually liked the October Birchbox. Hopefully they can remain consistent in providing decent product samples. The Chantecaille mascara gave me full natural looking lashes. I saw a difference in the way my skin looked after using the DDF serum. My skin did appear smoother. I wish there was more of the Embryolisse sample since it worked great on my combination skin. The Orofluido™ beauty elixir smelled wonderful. I applied it to my hair after I washed it and it made a great leave in conditioner. The Luna bar was actually delicious. I was expecting the bar to taste like cardboard. There were two items from this box that stood out for me. The DDF Wrinkle Resist Plus Pore Minimizer and the Orofluido™ Beauty Elixir. Since the weather in my area has gotten colder, these products prevented my hair and skin from drying out.

Every so often I visit the Clinique counter at Macy’s. This is mainly due to the free gift with purchase promotion. I’ve used Clinique for ten years. Even though I don’t splurge like I used to, I still try to … Continue reading
