Covergirl & Olay Tone Rehab Review

 
 
 
So I was super excited, because I was recently selected to try the Covergirl & Olay Tone Rehab Foundation and Powder!!!
 
 
Here are the foundation claims:
  • Instantly covers discolorations and age spots
  • Hydrates to improve skin tone over time
  • Foundation + Serum


  • * The color that I got was in 120 - Creamy Natural. It was a little light for my skin, but I was able to easily warm it up with some bronzer. *

    The powder claims are:
  • Helps brighten skin tone
  • Softens the look of imperfections
  • Doesn’t feel heavy or cakey


  • * The color that I got was in 320 Fair/Light. This color was a perfect match! *

    Here is a before photo:



    Here is an after photo with just the Covergirl & Olay. Already my skin looks more even and healthy:


    Here is the finished look with makeup and hair:


    So I really love these super affordable products! The foundation has good coverage and is creamy & hydrating. The powder provides wonderful luminosity, and together they really improve the tone and texture of your skin. I encourage you to check it out!

    Here is the video I made on You Tube:
     
    
     
     
     
     
    If you have any questions, let me know. Also if you have tried the products, please let me know what you think :)

    VEET Wax Strips

    VEET Ready to Use Wax Strips, Leg & Body

     
    So I have never waxed my legs before. It's such a large area and I always thought it was too expensive to get it professionally done. Of course there was always the do-it-yourself option, but that seemed complicated. To my excitement, the VEET® Ready-to-Use Wax Strips for Legs & Body were included in my Influenster Latina Voxbox. Truly changed my perspective on waxing.
     
    Positives:
    • Keeps skin smooth for longer.
    • Can be used on legs, underarms and bikini area.
    • Lasts up to 4 weeks.
    • Super easy to use!




    My experience:
    • It is difficult to get EVERY single hair, but I was pleased with how many actually came off.
    • When the hair grew back , I had a quite a few ingrown hairs. Got me thinking that I need to exfoliate more after using it.
    • The hairless factor lasted about 2 weeks, but I know it gets better the more you use the product.
    • It got a little sticky towards the end.
    • I love the effect on the lower half of my legs, but will NEVER use it on my armpits again -- super painful and not a lot hair even came off.
    • Half a box was good for both bottom halves of my legs.
    • It hurts a little bit on the legs, but nothing horrible.

    Ohhhh La La!
     
    Final thoughts:
    I would definitely recommend the product, especially if you are going on vacation and want to stress less about shaving. 

     

    Where to Buy:

    You can find VEET Ready to Use Wax Strips at Walgreens, Target, CVS, Rite Aid, Walmart!
    Suggested retail price of the Wax Strips: $9.99.
     
    For more information go to www.veet.us

    Let me know if you have any questions :)

    NYC New York Color


    NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine

    I want to review an AMAZING product that I was able to try through my Influenster Holiday Voxbox. It is the NYC New York Color Liquid Lipshine. I received the color Nude York City, which you can see on in the 2 photos below.



    First of all I have to say that this lip gloss is great for many reasons. My 2 favorites:
    • It has such a beautiful sheen and is so pretty just by itself.
    • It is SUPER affordable. I even bought another color in Big Apple Spice.

    To share some more information:
    • It has pure pigments that created a 3-D gloss effect. Vitamin E provides shine and a moisturizing feel. The formula is non-sticky, super shiny & soft. Available in 10 on-trend shades from neutral nudes, to berries & fuchsias. Product informaation and reviews can be found here: http://www.influenster.com/review/nyc-new-york-color-liquid-lipshine.
