On a day like today when 90 to 100 degree weather is the norm,  you’re sweating perfusely and you need something to help cool you down, using Shower to Shower is mandatory. Not only does it come in various incredible scents but it keeps you dry for atleast 5 hours. Which means you don’t get that sticky feeling on your skin and you don’t end up smelling extremely funky after an hour walk in 100 degree weather. My favorite scent is Morning fresh, I love the hint of lavender it has. They also have Island Fresh (plum), Original Fresh (rose, chamomille), and Breeze Fresh (vanilla) just to name a few.  Their website, www.showertoshower.com , even gives you tips on how to stay cool using “Shower to Shower“. It only costs about $6 or $7, so its another bargain. I highly recommend to buy it.

Spring is finally here (even though the weather acting more like hot one day and cold the next) and that means that bronzers are going to be in full effect. I haven’t been much into bronzer (i’m more of a blush girl) but having bronzer can be very helpful with perfect shade. For CoverGirl’s NEW TruBlend Natural Lumninous bronzer I suggest the shade, Golden Sunrise. For Maybelline’s ExpertWear Blush Bronzer Sunlight is better for shades in the fair to medium skin tone while salsa sun is more for women with darker skin tones. And Wet’n'Wild’s Bronzzer Compact,(something I use) comes in a variety of five shades (mine is medium to dark). All bronzers are just under $8.00, so its bargain!, Be sure to find one that fits your skin type (from oily to normal) I highly recommend to buy them!

today I am featuring a Maybelline product that I love. Their Pure Powder is a powder I actually use. Ever since I was about 17, I’ve tried countless powders that made my skin breakout and wasted my money. But this one, is actually good choice for my skin and for everyone (its sensitive to all skin types!). And the color doesn’t make my skin look pasty or two shades lighter than it usually is ( i wear pure powder in dark). Bonus: it takes away the shine from my oily skin, and for me, that’s a plus! I recommend the whole team: the pure concealer and pure makeup (foundation) to complete the whole package!
