Mother's Day Special Collaboration Video with Your_B_F_F Angie!!

Happy Mother's Day! My girlfriend Angie from Your_B_F_F (Your Beauty Fashion Fitness) and I decided to collaborate on a very special Mother's Day themed vido tutorial. Both mine and Angie's videos are jam packed with good stuff! So apologizing now for them being on the longer side...but that's ok :) Angie is so awesome and so much fun! She lives in Texas and is a gorgeous Mommy of 2 boys and is obsessed with all thing Beauty like me! She was one of the first friends I made in the beauty blogging world and I am so happy to have met her! I consider her to be a good friend :) Please make sure you check her out!

Angie and I both felt that as Beauty Bloggers and Moms that we should focus on how we as Moms, Bring Out Our Sexy! So our videos show you how we get all sexied up for a night out by turning our day looks in to night looks. We share some fun personal stuff as Moms as well as our OOTN (Outfits Of The Night). 

Here is my look I did:

I have to mention a small blooper that I don't include in the video ha ha! While I was applying my lashes my girlfriend Heather called me so I took the call on Speaker while I was applying the lashes thinking I would just edit it all out any way. Well, I ended up poking myself in the eye and I have crazy sensitive eyes so my right eye starts to tear a bit and turn a bit red and irritated in the video. I apologize! I have photoshopped my photo above so it didn't look so horrific! But I had to share cuz I thought it was funny! 

And here is Angie's look:

She's beautiful right?!?

These videos are dedicated all the Mommies out there! Find your Inner Sexy and bring it out! Because we know it is there!! Being a Mom is such a blessing, but it is also a lot of very hard work. I totally get that as a Mom of 3 small children. I think it is important for us to be able to relate to each other. So I hope that Angie and I are easy to relate to!

And here are our videos! Enjoy!

Tangerine Makeup for Summer Video Tutorial

Sephora stated about a month or so ago that 'Tangerine is the color of the year'. Good color choice if you ask me. So I of course wanted to do a look using a tangerine theme. I was going to do the look on myself but thought it would be gorgeous on my niece Mckennly too. So she agreed to be my model again. Since the last video you saw Mckennly in I have highlighted and cut her hair. Hope you like that too. I think she looks gorgeous! 

I don't have the Tangerine products that Sephora is selling but I have very similar colors in palettes that I purchased from Sleek Makeup last summer. Sleek is only available in the U.K. but they do ship to the U.S. (for a reasonable flat rate) and their products are fabulous and affordable. 

I curled Kennly's hair with a flat iron which I did try to film as a hair tutorial, but I'm not sure I like it. So I'll look at it and then decide if I want to upload it or re-film it another time. Mostly likely will re-film it ha!

I hope you enjoy this video and the tangerine colors as much as I do! 

List of products used:

Face: Benefit Cosmetics That Gal face primer, Make Up For Ever HD foundation, MAC studio finish concealer, Sleek One Finishing Powder

Cheeks: NARS Laguna Bronzer, Sleek Pan Tao Blusher

Eyes: Too Faced Shadow Insurance, Sleek Primer Palette, Sleek Avoir Le Peche Palette, MAC Mineralize Crushed Pigment Lantern Light, MAC Teddy kohl pencil, NYC High Definition Volume Mascara

Lips: NARS lip gloss in Wonder

Lookin' Good Naked with Tan Towel Product Review

Now how's that for a post title? HA! It actually says on the packaging of this product "Look Good Naked". Which is totally brilliant marketing because you remember a tag line like that. So as you can guess I'm reviewing the Tan Towel product in this post. This is a review I promised you after announcing on Facebook and Twitter that I had purchased the Tan Towels. 

These are sold online at Tan Towel's website, they are sold on QVC and HSN as well as in salons. I picked up mine at my local licensed only beauty supply. I'm always on the look out for a great self tanning product because I am very into sun safety. I always wear sunscreen and put sunscreen on my kids. But so many self tanners fall short. There are so many out there that are just ok. Nothing that I would personally say is fantastic. Then I came across these babies.

They are FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC! The box comes with 5 tan towels. The towels look exactly like those wet naps you get at restaurants to clean your hands with. Only these ones are bigger because they are meant to use on your whole body. I picked up the Full Body Application towels for Fair to Medium Skin because as we all know I'm as white girl as they come. I was so excited to use these that I even gave one to my bestie Heather to try out with me. Luckily she is fair skinned as well. 

Here is what it says on the box: Each tantowel classic towelette is concentrated with a self-tan formula to give you a quick and even application with no streaking, mess or fuss. Tantowel classic will produce a uniform, natural looking glow within 2 to 4 hours. For a deeper tan, apply another tantowel after 4 hours. To maintain your tan, reapply as needed or 2 to 3 times a week. For a darker result apply more frequently. Light citrus fragrance. Results may vary. 

So I would have to agree with what the box says and I have used 2 towels since purchasing them. My tan was streak free, so easy to apply and the best part was the product dried super fast after applying, and there was no residue on my clothing or my bed sheets. The citrus scent is actually quite nice and it doesn't smell like a self tanner. Which I know is a plus for some people. It was a plus for my friend Heather who tried to towels with me. 

Before I applied the product I took a shower to clean and exfoliate my skin as well as shave. After I dried myself off I applied my face moisturizer and some lotion to my heels and palms to prevent too much product saturation in those areas. Then I unfolded the towelette and wiped it in circular motions starting with my legs first. I started with my legs first because that is where I wanted the most concentration of my tan to be. Then applied to my feet, arms, chest/tummy, back, neck and last my face. The towels are really wet with the product and I just kept using it until it was pretty much dry to make sure I got my money's worth ;-) I immediately washed my hands afterwards. 

I was amazed at how fast the product dried on my skin. It dried a couple minutes after I was done applying and I was able to get into my PJ's. By the time I went to bed a couple hours later I started to notice the tan already appearing on my skin. 

The next morning I was so excited to see the tan on my skin! It was so nice looking! It had awesome color, no orange AT ALL, and looked completely even and natural! I've never every had a better self tanning product! I was instantly in love! My friend Heather and I meet at the bus stop every morning to send our kids off to school and we were raving to each other and admiring our lovely tans! 

I have since re-applied (5 days after the first application), last night actually, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE my tan! So natural looking and it didn't go too dark at all. Which is a really good thing when you are as fair as I am. Overall I am giving this product 5 stars. It is completely amazingly awesome!

So awesome, in fact that I am going to sell them to my clients so they can get them locally from me as they are only sold to salon professionals, online or QVC or HSN. 

The Tan Towels come in Full Body Applications, Half Body (which I don't get why you would only want half, but maybe if you were just doing your legs?), and they also have sunscreen and lotions available. It comes in 2 different boxes for Fair to Medium skin tones and Medium to Dark skin tones. The towels do not contain any SPF in them so you will still need to apply sunscreen. And obviously they are for external use only ;-)

Let me know if you try these out! I'm super happy with them!
