I made a goal this year (as I do every year) to take better care of my skin. I bought a few things from Sephora online, read on for the deets.  Clarisonic - The Clarisonic has been on my wish list for at least a year. I finally buckled down and purchased one. I bought the Clarisonic Mia, which is the most inexpensive one ($119) in the Clarisonic family. It comes with the sensitive brush head, charger, instruction manaul and a 1 oz cleanser. I have been using this for almost a week & I'm so in love with this little thing...I will save all of my wonderful comments about it for the review.  I will be doing a full review after I used it for a while. I could have went to the local Sephora to purchase the Clarisonic but they don't always give me the VIB points, so; I bought it online...the more points you get, the more free items & samples you get. Origins Clay Mask - This was the item that I got for free for reaching over 100 points. I could h...

Hey, Dolls! The newest addition to my eyeshadow collection is... The NAKED 2 palette!!! I haven't entered a blog giveaway in a long time and the first one I enter, I end up a winner :-) I won this fabulous palette in a giveaway from the beautifully, talented Trina from Trina J Makeup . Trina offers some of the best beauty and product knowledge in her videos and on her blog. All of her expertise comes from first hand experience, she's worked at several makeup companies and she currently works as a freelance makeup artist. Check out her Blog , Twitter page & You Tube channel and be sure to follow! Naked 1 on the left, Naked 2 on the right The Naked palette 2 features 12 neutral shades, a duo eyeshadow brush and a lip gloss.  I thought the 12 colors would be very similar to the original Naked palette, but; I swatched both palettes and the shades are different in each palette...in my opinion. All of the shades are perfect fo...

Hey, Glamour Dolls I've loved a lot of products within the year, some you all have heard me blog about a lot, others not so much. Here are a few products that stayed in my makeup bag all year. 1. Mac Select Cover Up concealer NC44 -This concealer is liquid form and is good for covering up blemishes and dark circles. It provides a medium coverage, often times I only wore this concealer with powder because the coverage is very comparable to foundation. What I love the most, is it provides a "my skin but better" finish; never cakey or mask like. 2. Maybelline Fit Me foundation 320 - I didn't readily jump on this product when it first came out, but; since I'm a coupon queen & I received a $2 off coupon for this, I went out and bought it. I didn't wear foundation much this past year, but; when I did-I wore this foundation. It has excellent airbrush like coverage, it lasts all day and despite some of the reviews-it didn't make my skin oily. It h...
