Spotlight product: Dior Star Fluid Foundation SPF30
Finish: Radiant
Shade range: Product come in 14 shades
Scent: It smells pleasant but isn't too fragrant
Price: $50
For the past few months I have been testing this foundation out and I absolutely love it! I have combination skin in the winter and this provides great coverage without being overly drying or greasy (although I do set it with a powder). I apply this product with a dense flat top brush to get the most coverage while using the least amount of product.
Overall, I would give this product an A!

Express Review: True Glory Hair
If you are keen on packaging; True Glory Hair isn't for you. The hair came in a black plastic bag that was stuffed into a FedEx envelope. There was no receipt, no order slip...nothing. I pulled the hair out of the bag and it looked legit (I am not a weave queen and don't really know what to look for). I ran my fingers through the hair and a few strands came out... nothing to major to me. The hair was a bit damp and smelled like it had been sitting in a box somewhere, but I plan on washing the hair anyway so I didn't mind.
I plan on sealing the wefts and using this hair to make a u-part unit for myself. Check back for more updates! Express Review: True Glory Hair

Product Review: Incoco Dry Nail Applique
*DISCLAIMER*
Dear FTA: Welcome to my blog! Just so you know I purchased this product with my own money from the Walgreen’s on Gallivan Blvd in Dorchester MA. K Thanx lol
Dear people reading my blog: I am not affiliated with this company (although I would love to be) and this is my true and honest opinion about this product. So rest assured no one is trying to pull the wool or in this case nail polish over your eyes.
Hey Everyone! So I’m sitting on a plane on my flight back to Ohio, sipping on my Fresca and the man beside me is ordering a spicy tomato juice (O_o). But I digress; I am reviewing a product that I stumbled upon in my local Walgreen’s back home in Boston. I was in the beauty/nail isle when a spotted Incoco dry nail appliqué. It was 4.99 and I thought what the heck its worth a try. I have “oily nails beds” and nail polish and this promised up to 14 days of coverage. I purchased it in the color Flaunt, which is like a deep pink/fuchsia. When you open the package there are 16 nail strips, a nail file/buffer thingy, a cuticle pusher backer (lol) I'm sure that’s not what its called) a nail polish remover cloth and I think what is a sample of there French manicure kit. I opened the pack a few days ago to try one out and I must say that I was very impressed. There was no peeling or chipping. So of course I am excited because I had finally found a nail color that stayed on my nails loner than 24 hours. I am on though e plain and decided to finish the rest of my nail while on this 2-hour flight. That’s right I just did my nails on the plain in less than 15 minutes and they were instantly dry. Ok so here is the deal: BUY THIS!!. Lol. It’s that simple. They are inexpensive last longer than bottle polish and you can even do your nails while in flight. They do smell like nail polish but the sent isn’t overpowering where you couldn't do it around other or in cramped quarters (such as a Delta airplane) The only thing is I don’t think that you are supposed to open them and not use them because one of my nails isn’t sticking well but once we land and I get to my place I am going to put a clear coat of polish on just to seal them. Over all I give this product 5 out 5. It is very well priced; easy to find at your local Walgreen’s (or online) and everything you need is in a convenient package. You could ask for more. Try them out and let me know what you think!
