Kindle Fire

For Christmas my husband gave me a Kindle Fire. I was absolutly thrilled because I had been wanting one for a long time. I liked the iPad but couldn't fathom paying $600+ for one.

It fits in my purse so I can take it to work and I love all the apps I can get on it. My girls love playing Angry birds and other little apps that I have downloaded on it. I have read a few books on it but mostly I read my magazines to save on growing a huge collection!

Only downsides that I have experiance is that even though it is a Android OS you can only get Amazon approved android apps and some videos will not play. However, for the price of $199 and the size I think its a awesome buy!

MAK Review: Maybelline The Falsies and Covergirl LashBlastVolume

I was not born with lush long lashes like some of my blessed friends (Michelle!!), but thank goodness they now have products out there to make you SEEM like you have those gorgeous lashes. I recently bought Maybelline Volum' Express the Falsies and Covergirl LashBlast Volume Blasting Waterproof Mascara.

Both of these could definitly be worn seperate but I use both (in waterproof cause I have over active tear-ducts) with the falsies first and then the lash blast second. They dont flake at all and the 'very black', which is all i every get mascara in, looks great. They only down fall I have is that it is a little more difficult to get off since it is waterproof. Besides that it is great!.

I have tried other mascaras that say they make lashes look longer or what not byt they do fall short compared to these two. They were each about $8.00 but well woth the cost. If I had to only live with one it would be the lashblast just because I like the brush a lot better.

MAK Reviews: Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit Foaming Scrub

So here is my second review: Oil-Free Acne Wash Pink Grapefruit Foaming Scrub

I have very dry skin and do get a lot of breakouts from time to time. I have gone through so many different facewashes and cleansers its not funny! I finally found this while I was pregnant with Kimber. I broke out so bad for the first 6 months of pregnancy and couldn't get anything to clear it up or keep my face moisterized. When I used it for the first time I knew it was a keeper. I use this about everyday ( yes I know thats bad not to use everyday but hey Im a mom and I get tired lol). It smells good without that chemical smell a lot of anti acne products have.

I want to try thier new creamy cleasner version they have now, but keep forgetting to pick it up at wally world lol. This facewash is very mild and little drying. I use a great moisterizer which I'll post about later. The little beads are not very rough at all so it won't scratch your face but does get a lot of those hard black heads out. Its about $5-$6 depending are where you buy your hygene products at.

This keeps my face clear and doesn't break out half as much as it used to. So in conclusion, it smells good, inexpensive, and really works! Two thumbs up!

MAK Reviews: Victoria Secrets Sexy Little Things Noir

So I have decided to start a section called 'MAK Reviews'. I'll be reviewing things I personally use and give my two cents of how it is. I like reading reviews and thought, "Hey I could do that!"

Here is my first offical review- Victoria Secrets Sexy Little Things Noir

My sweet husband bought this for me last week. It came as a kit except for the center bottle which I bought seperate. It comes with creamy lotion, creamy shower/bath gel, a small perfume, and a larger perfume with one of those old fashioned ball sprayers. I found out about this scent from my awesome friend Monica you was letting me use it almost everyday so I had to get my own lol

It is a very delicate smell and comes in pink packaging which I love! Here is the description from VS website, Sexy Little Things Noir™ is an enchanting blend of sparkling nectarine, sultry amber and exotic orchid.

I got the set for $58.00 and then the extra bottle for $22.00 well worth the price. I feel very pretty and a little sexy when I put it on and what girl doesn't like that? If you are looking for something that last a long time on you but not overbearing and you really want to invest in something that is timeless I would definitly suggest Sexy Little Things Noir.
