Who's Da Bomb? Lisa Frank and Trelly's M.I.S.C is...

Press Sample Purchased by Me
 
I'm in the middle of my yearly family vacation so this is going to be brief as far as my dialog goes, which may be a good thing lol. I will have a ton fo pictures tho, so don't fear :) 

If there is one polish you purchase this summer, this should be it. This is Lisa Frank is Da Bomb by Trelly's M.I.S.C. 


The colors are dead on for Lisa Frank. It's all about loud bright colors, so I did the same with my base. This is Sation's Let's Make Lemonade....a PERFECT match for this polish!





HOW FUN ARE IS THIS POLISH??!!


The glitters and colors are so stand out for me in this polish. If you get a chance to grab this one you should, it's a must have for Summer 2013!

Trelly's M.I.S.C. Barbie's Dream House

Press Sample

Tonight I have another amazing polish created by Trelly's M.I.S.C. called Barbie's Dream House for the new Summer 2013 line.  The colors are so fun!! This definitely reminds me of Barbie when I look at the shades of pink in this.

 
 I wanted a really fun base for this one. I was really drawn to the yellowish green hex glitters in this, so I decided to bring that color in as the base. The base is the Loudest color by Sation. It was a prefect match for this polish. It's a bright fluorescent yellowish green.
 
 
There are only 4 colors in this polish, and they compliment each other so nicely. There is light pink, dark pink, yellowish green, and white. The shapes in this one are fun too, hex, rectangular, square, and star shapes.
 
 

This is part of Trelly's M.I.S.C's new Summer 2013 line, which include several noen glitter polishes. Neon has been big this summer and I'm loving these polishes that are incorporating neon in them.

Mud Mask reviews are back!!!

By Popular demand, I am finally brining back mud mask reviews to ThePolishHoochie! I started a series of reviews WAY back, and it kind of went to the way side. I now want to bring the series back.

Here are the masks I have done in the past. You can click the links below if you are interested in seeing my older reviews. I group them by company, and these are the two companies I use.


Today I was really in the mood for a good mud mask, so I grabbed for my Montagne Jeunesse Mud Pack. This packaging always gets my attention. Whomever is designing packaging for this company is doing an amazing job. The packages always have bright shocking fun eye catching colors, and fun layouts of the models with the masks on.
 
I am a closet mud mask addict, and that's putting it lightly.  Here is my collection to date, but it grows daily. I purchase mine at Walmart and Walgreens, so every time I am out shopping I pick one or two up. The price point is between $1.99 and $2.50, depending where you shop. I have a list on my Iphone of the masks I already own so I don't double buy ones I already have :) It's always a fun adventure to see if I can find a new one that I don't already own.


TODAYS MASK: MUD PAC ANTI STRESS



DESCRIPTION:
Anti Stress mask with Dead Sea Salt to ultra deep pore cleanse. As the package suggested, I started with a clean face and applied warm water (with no soap or cleaners) to open the pores up on my face.
 
FOR SKIN TYPE(S):
Normal, Oily and T-Zone Skin
 
TEXTURE & COLORING:
The mask is a whitish mud mask. I'm not sure what mask they are advertising on the packaging, but it's not deep blue in color at all. It is a stark white with a very very small tinge of pale blue, while the mud is wet and dry.  I was kind of looking forward to the deep blue color that was shown on the package, so that was a small let down lol. It was a typical mud mask texture and it was very smooth and easily spread and applied on my face.
 

SMELL:
The scent on this one is a bit strange to describe. It smells like a man's shaving cream. That is the best way I can describe it. It's a clean soapy smell that is very pleasing to me. It's how my husband smells when he comes out of the shower after he shaves. It is not unpleasant in any way, just has a more of a masculine smell to me. No floral scents here, which for me is great because I hate heavy floral scents on my face. To me this was a really nice smell.

MASK DRYING PROPERTIES:
The mask felt really cool and refreshing going on while the mud was still wet. I love how the texture of the mud felt, which was very smooth and easy to apply. It hardened as it dried on my face, but not a harsh drying. It did not get rock stiff or feel like it was pulling at my skin. We all have tried a mask like that at one point. I have had masks that were physically painful when drying - pulling at my skin and the small baby hairs on my face - OUCH!!!! I am pleased to say that this mask does not. Though it dries 'hard', you can still easily move your face (smile, speak, etc..) without any major issues.

RESULTS AFTER REMOVING:
Really SOFT AND SMOOTH. It felt so soft and so refreshing. It really made my face feel clean after rinsing. The was no harsh over drying of my skin on this one either. I did apply moisturizer to my face afterward, (which is always recommended after masking), but only a very small amount.

VERDICT:
Two BIG thumbs up on this one. This is a real winner and I want to stock up on these. I will be repeating this one and keeping it on my 'got to' mask list when I feel like I want a really nice deep clean. I highly recommend this one.

Thanks for visiting and stay tuned for future masks  reviews headed your way here at ThePolishHoochie :)

Influenster Spring VoxBox 2013 Unboxing video!!

Press Sample 

Hi Guys,

I qualified for the free Spring 2013 Influenster VoxBox, and I wanted to do a unboxing video.


I have not done a video in FOREVER, and my voice sounds crazy in this lol. I also have no polish on and dry cuticles (ducks the incoming thrown stones) HAHAHAHA.  

To make a long story short, I used the Red Carpet Gel polish for my New York Trip I took 3 weeks ago and it wrecked my nails. I'm positive it was user error since many say you have to kind of know what your doing to apply and remove gel. For me it caused my nails to get thin and weak. Removal was a nightmare and took layers off my nails. I had to file down everything to the shortest my nails have ever been. It also wrecked havoc on my cuticles that are usually pretty decent. So in short, everything was a mess when I took this video. They have somewhat recovered since, and get better ever day. 

Thanks for visiting and keep an eye out for the actual review of these products :)

Naild'it StrawFairy Blossom - Smells Like Strawberries!!!

Press Sample
 
Hi Guys,

My Internet finally came back from the dead and seems to be operating properly again...YEAH! 

Tonight I have a beautiful polish from Naild'it, called StrawFairy Blossom. This is three coats of StrawFairy Blossom with one coat of Seche Vite Top Coat.


Is this not pure beauty of what??!! This is a jelly base polish with amazing pink translucent glitters in different shapes as well as a red translucent glitters, It's so fun. There are lots of different pinks out there. This is my kinda of pink, bright and fun, no powder pink for me. I LOVE this color!!!!!!


There are also flower shaped glitter in this too (bonus), you can see them on my index finger above. It makes me think of flowers and strawberries in summer. 

The best thing about this polish, is IT SMELLS LIKE STRAWBERRIES. This is my first smelly polish and I love it. Now it doesn't smell like you stuck your noise in a fresh basket of strawberries, there is still a regular polish smell there, but with a hint of strawberry. It's super pleasing to me.

The smell of a polish is a big deal to me. I couldn't help but keep sniffing my fingers while I wore it lol. I love this one.
