This is a video I recorded tonight. I have never recorded any reviewing videos before so I was actually nervous! lol (so I say "like" a lot when I am nervous. I'm going to try to not say it as much my next video :( ). I also should have flipped the video, but I had no idea how to so I should probably look into that. Anyway, this is a review on the Lioele Waterdrop Sleeping Pack. :)

Freeman's Facial Clay Mask
After seeing people posting up how Walmart is selling the small packs for $.34, I decided to go to mine to check it out. A few of my Walmarts did not let me use the coupon on these sample packets, but some others did so I grabbed some from those places. I do not use face mask's much so I picked up two of their Avocado & Oatmeal and their Chocolate & Strawberry one. When I went home, I immediately tried it on (after cleaning my face of course). I thought that this was a one use package and I was surprised with how much product one pack comes with! I kept layering it on my face and I still had a lot in the package left, so I decided to put some on my boyfriend (he initially did not like it).
After putting on the product, we both waited until it dried. It took him about 10 minutes because I had enough to put a thin layer on him and it took me about half an hour because of all those layers! After washing it off (which took a while to get my face all clean and green-free), I felt that my skin was smoother and my pores were dirt free! Usually when I accidentally scratch my nose area, I see all these pores and it is all gross, but after this I did not notice much of them and I was incredibly happy with the results. Of course, it only lasted about a day or two, but for best results I suggest using this about two times a week! Oh & remember my boyfriend initially did not like it? He liked his skin after washing it off because he also felt the results!
Picture:
I'm excited to try the Chocolate & Strawberry one now! & I think if I have some left, I can actually save it for the day after because it does not dry in the package. Just seal it tightly so bacteria & all that nasty stuff does not get in over the night. Have any of you tried it? Like it? Let me know!
Zoya; Happi
Zoya Happi is from their 2010 Reverie collection. I ordered this over a year ago and I never tried it on before so I decided to try to today. Happi is a bubblegum pink color with a golden sheen to it, which is pretty subtle.
The first coat made it seem like it was going to be sheer because the polish itself was kind of runny, but the second coat covered pretty much the whole nail. Since this is a light color, you would be able to see the nail if you put your nails over a light or reach it above the sunlight to see it.

Essie; Navigate Her
Hey everyone! I am so happy I got my laptop back from the Apple store today! It sucks because the first time I took it in back in December, the guy working there insisted there was nothing wrong with my laptop. I felt like something was wrong so I took it in again, but a different one & they found a huge problem... my logic board was dying! Anyway, I'm glad I got it back & it is fixed! So now, I have some swatches of Essie's Navigate Her for you :)
Navigate her is from Essie's 2012 Spring collection, so you will be able to find it now, or soon if you are looking for colors from their spring collection. When I first saw this collection, I knew I had to have Navigate Her because it is a pistachio/dark lime green! The formula on this nail polish was a bit on the thick side, but it did not give me a hard time to work it so that is a total plus! I usually expect creme polishes to be streaky because most of the ones I have tried are, but this was not streaky at all and I only needed two coats.

OPI; Come to Poppy
Today, I have swatches of Come to Poppy from OPI's 2011 summer collection, Nice Stems. This collection came with four colors and out of the four, Come to Poppy was one of the ones I bought from it. I normally don't like bright pink colored polishes, but I felt like this was a color that was perfect for summer!
Come to Poppy is a frosty coral pink color. The formula of this nail polish was perfect! It was not too thin, or too thick. This was almost a one coater, although I put two coats in my swatches, I really could have gotten away with one coat if I used the first coat a bit thicker. It glides on smoothly and although it is some what metallic, I had no problems with it streaking or looking out of place after putting two coats on like how some polishes look like after applying. I am excited it is almost spring coming and it is perfect for not only summer, but spring!
Before removing the polish, I decided to layer Essie's Shine of the Times over it & I feel like that is such a nice combo! Flakies over a bright bold pink! What do you guys think?

MyGlam February Bag
I received my bag today, although I never got any tracking number for it, my boyfriend gave me the bag today since it shipped it his house! Here's the bag & the items in this months bag!
This bag contains a $100 gift certificate for NuMeOnline (for only styling tools & extensions), one sample pack of a Freeman Mask in Goji Berry, A NYX Roll On Shimmer (I got the one in Salmon), a tube of X Out Shine Control, two sample packs from Dead See Premier and Ghirardelli chocolate (which has one milk chocolate & one dark chocolate in there.
Although these aren't items I was hoping for, I can't really complain considering the fact that I only paid $10 a month & a $100 certificate is included in there. I will post up reviews when I get the chance to try them.
Happy Valentines day! :D

OPI; I Have a Herring Problem
Today, I have swatches of I Have a Herring Problem from OPI's newest Holland collection! I was originally going to post this up last week, but once I got back to where I stay during the school week, I realized I left my camera with the pictures at home! This collection consists of 12 colors where 6 of them are creme's and 6 of them are shimmers. I purchased three of the shimmers and I Have a Herring Problem is one of them! This collection has two blue shimmers which are very, very similar, but I purchased both of them since I love blue nail polishes! Especially with shimmer in them.
Anyway, I Have a Herring Problem is a medium dusty blue. Out of this and I Don't Give a Rotterdamn, this is a darker version of it. However, the picture of this with flash makes it light enough for it to look like I Don't Give a Rotterdamn! The formula on this was pretty thin. It was not streaky when applying it, but after three coats, I was still able to see my nail so I used four coats in all these swatches for full coverage.
Overall, I think this is a great color from the collection. Although it requires about four coats, the color was absolutely amazing! Especially in the sun. I did not notice it indoors, but when I was waiting for the bus, I looked at the color in the sunlight and I saw that the shimmer was not just plain silver shimmer, but I was able to see that there are rainbow shimmers in there. It is really hidden, but in direct sunlight, it looks awesome! Three of the days when the sun was out while waiting for the bus, I couldn't stop staring at the color of the polish. People around me probably thought I was a weird-oh, hah. So my pictures do no justice, even though it is pretty indoors as well. I think you guys just have to try it for yourself!
