"Impress" Me


I don't know about you, but there are days when I just don't have the time to sit down and do a full on manicure. I had wanted to try Impress for awhile to see if they really did work as well as the tv and magazine ads claimed. They just seemed to be a great alternative to nail stickers,and waiting forever for your nails to dry.
I picked these up at Target,and loved the design. There are quite a few to choose from ranging from floral to lace,and animal prints, as well as just simple everyday shades of pink,purple,and red. The ones shown here are called "Shout"

These were easy to size,and there were enough in the package for two full sets of nails,so it was a great value. The application is easy! There's a little tab that you pull off, simply size and press. The look was even,and the edges of the nails are smooth, not rough like some of the other nail products I have tried. Nothing to catch on your pantyhose or clothing as you get dressed.


Impressed? Yeah, very! The overall wear-ability was pretty good. They aren't really meant for long wear, but for a night out or a special occasion where you just want a nice manicured look, these are perfect. You're probably not going to want to do dishes in them, but they will last for dinner and a cocktail or two.


What I liked best was that they come in different lengths for both small and regular sized nails. Right now, I am sporting shorter nails,and these fit just right.

Find these at Target,Walgreens,CVS, Rite Aid,Fred Myers,Walmart,etc.

Until next time~

Spring Beauty Essentials


Have you seen these great new sets from Sonia Kashuk yet? I purchased these as a little Mother's Day gift for myself at Target,and just love the way they fit into a handbag or makeup kit.






The eyeshadow is soft,shimmering,and the perfect shade for sultry summer nights. The sleek compact shown here houses four duel purpose cheek and lip colors.


These are sized just right,and are beautiful,sheer shades that can be worn alone on cheeks or lips ( pair with your favorite gloss on top for an edgy,pop of color) The shades are a little bit darker than my flash would allow,but the colors are so versatile!


My favorite brushes have always been from Sonia Kashuk,something about the way the blush brushes are made, just allows for easy handling. I love this little set,and again it is just perfect for tossing into a makeup kit or your favorite purse for an on the go touch up.


Find these, and more at your local Target!

Put a little "Spring" in your makeup routine

Until next time~
