IMG_9369
Hello my Bondbeautys,

It has been so long since I have posted and so much has happened that I want to share. I guess that for a later post though. Today lets get down to business with a VIBRATING Flat Iron. I know what your thinking, the products they come out with now a days are crazy! Well this one sounds funky ,but it is absolutely genius! It actually works guys, so Im bringing it to my blog and I am also doing a giveaway.

I have tried this first hand and I love it to straighten or curl my hair. (I will be showing you a tutorial at the end of how to do both)

This is the Asavea Vibe Vibrating Flat Iron Buy it Here.

*Not an affiliate Link

PROS:

  • Heats up in 60 sec
  • Vibration options which decreases the FRIZZ (I love this for when I straighten my hair)
  • Temp 325-450
  • Does not pull on my hair! AT ALL
  • Ceramic Flat Iron- Gives you consistent temperature
  • Swivel Cord So when Curling It doesn’t get tangled in your hair
  • Automatic shut off after 60 min
  • Fiberglass technology helps retain moisture to your hair
  • Affordable (is on sale right now for $49.99)
  • You can turn the vibration mode on or off
  • When vibration mode is on, it only vibrates when clamped shut!

IMG_9373

CONS:

  • NONE seriously It works so well I cant think of

4

As I have been trying this for the past couple weeks I actually prefer the Vibrating mode to be on when Im straightening my hair. The reason why is because it completely eliminates frizz and smooths my hair to the point that It even looks like I put anti frizz product in it when I didn’t.  Whenever I curl my hair I don’t use the vibrating mode.

5So I will be showing you how I straighten and Curl my hair in the video below. I honestly do think that this flat iron is amazing and worth a try. I recommend it 100%!

I have another surprise for you first, I’m doing a giveaway! Asavea was so kind to host a giveaway , absolutely free, all you need to do to enter is click here .

Its open until Feb 11, 2018 I will be announcing the winner in the description box of my video below. I will also be emailing you personally so make sure to check your spam folders!!

So I hope you guys enjoy the tutorial and Good luck!

Dermacol Makeup Cover Foundation| Worlds Best Foundation?

7 / 15 / 17

IMG_8637

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Its a bran new day and we are doing #foundationweek. Basically it is where I do A new foundation review/first impressions post every day or 7 days. I started this on my Youtube channel and really wanted to do some blog posts to go along. Plus I know you would really enjoy some good written details.

 

Today I wanted to share this FULL FULL COVERAGE FOUNDATION. The Dermacol Makeup Cover Foundation*. This is seriously the Worlds most full coverage foundation, I’m not exaggerating. My Perfect shade match is Dermacol 221, If you want to see what shades of foundations match me well then look in the description box of the Video below.

 

*I do receive compensation for clicking my link, if you do not want to click on my link then feel free to google Dermacol Foundation.

PicMonkey Image-2

So why is this foundation the Worlds Most? It covers everything! To show you I went through and completely marked up my face with a red marker. Why Red? well its more realistic because often times acne & imperfections are red. I know its genius! This foundation smoothed over everything so easy, I still can’t believe it. The best part is that you only need a pea size amount for you entire face. Less is more with this one.

IMG_8636

Lets talk Pros & Cons:
PROS

  • Use thin Layers & covers Everything
  • Long Wearing
  • smooths over imperfections and leaves a dewy/natural finish on the skin (Healthy Glow)
  • Applies Good with Brush Or Sponge (I personally love using a Brush)
  • Perfect for Pictures or an event
  • If you want to wear it for everyday you can mix it in with your moisturizer
  • DOES NOT OXIDIZE
  • affordable foundation

CONS

  • Feels A little Thick on the Skin

I think this is a good foundation for everyone to have. If you have dry skin or Oily skin I think you can wear this. If you have Oily skin make sure to powder with a mattifying powder or use a mattifying primer. Now this is why I think everyone should have this, even if you do not use this all the time. This is a great foundation to use to spot conceal spots around your face. So if you need more coverage on your forehead apply your regular foundation all over and only apply this on the area on your forehead you need more coverage. I give you guys my stamp of approval and the best part is how affordable it is. See it Here.

If you want to see how this foundation wears through out the day, I did do a full First impressions video where I take you with me along my day so you can see for yourself how it Wears.

So I hope you enjoyed my review I will be back tomorrow to share another blog post. If you want to see how well it covers see the video below!

Camo/Army Inspired Makeup | INSTA TUTORIALS

4 / 7 / 17

77

Hello my BondBeautys,

Happy Friday, today is a special friday because its my wonderful husbands birthday! I wouldn’t be where I am at today, and I wouldn’t have this blog if it wasn’t for him. So Thank you!

Im so excited to share another InstaTutorial with you guys. So what this is for those of you that are new; On Instagram I sometimes like to do fantasy/editorial/themed Makeup looks that will just look beautiful in pictures. Sometimes when I do these I like to turn on the camera and film it in a tutorial form. But, whats different than other tutorials is that at the very end I share some of my edited picture and you can vote in the comments on which pic you like. And which pic you think I should put on my Instagram Feed! This is a fun way to kind of join both the youtube & instagram platform. Don’t worry I’m going to be showing you those pics and you can vote too, right here!

100For this look I was super inspired my my camo that I love to wear. Yes its a SolarCity Hat :). No I’m not sponsored I just have a bunch of SolarCity Gear and out of all the hats my husband owns this one is my favorite. So I thought why not turn it into a amazing eye look that I have never seen done before. Hence this makeup look was born.

 

 

So before I share my tutorial below I thought I would share the Pictures so you can vote, and give you all the makeup details. This look actually turned out to be quite easy.

(1st Picture)

9951. I started off by shaping a bold, square brow.

2. I traced out the pattern that I wanted with the black from the Imagic Flash Palette.

3. I filled in the different portions with different Army colors from the flash palette, brown, dark brown, army green,bright green, & cream

4. I set all those creams with powdered Eyeshadow that matched.( below all palettes used)

5. I then went back over the black outline with a thin eyeliner brush & the cream shadow again.

6. I did  a quick wing & popped on some lashes.

Wet N Wild NEW Releases for 2017

1 / 23 / 171 / 23 / 17

IMG_4537

 

 

 

 

 

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Im so excited to be doing the Ultimate Wet N Wild New Releases Post! I have done a first impressions & a full review on all the new products I got at the beginning of January. Wet N Wild is really stepping up their game this year. None of the products I have tried so far from them are duds! So I’m going to keep it short and simple and let the videos do the talking enjoy!

 

 

 

IMG_20170103_164543_232

First I have a full first impressions where I take you throughout the day and see how all these products wear.

New Products:

  • Cushion Contour $5.99
  • Cushion Highlight $5.99
  • Megaglo Highlight $4.99
  • Contour Stick $3.99
  • Blush Stick $3.99
  • Photo Focus Foundation $5.99

After Using these products for almost a month and really trying them in all different ways I have a full review on the Foundation..

Overall the Foundation is my personal favorite! I think it looks beautiful on camera, in pictures & in person. As it warms up to the skin it becomes almost skin like. It looks so natural and beautiful. Also it is a High Medium Coverage when applied with a brush & it is perfect for my needs.

1-2 (1)This is one of my Recent Editorial Style Instagram Pics where I’m wearing the Foundation. Also it matches perfectly with my undertone.

  • WetNWild Photo Focus Foundation Golden Beige (Matches Fit Me Matte & poreless 220)

 

 

As far as the other products I tried the cushion products are amazing. I love how they dry down completely so I don’t need to set it. It also lasted longer than any of the other contour / highlight products I have tried from wet n wild. IMG_20170107_164856_288

I also love the undertone of their contour shades, the cushion & stick. They are a perfect natural shade that isn’t too warm or too cool. I feel like these are the most universal shades. Plus the cushions last me 12 hrs (when applied with a brush)

 

WetnWild is one of the most affordable brands at the drugstore; and for them to come out this year with some amazing products is fantastic. I feel like they came out swinging!

IMG_4487

Wearing:

  • PhotoFocus Foundation Golden Beige
  • Blush Stick Floral Majority
  • Contour Stick Where’s Walnut
  • MegaGlo Highlight Precious Petals

Have you tried any of these products? I hope this was helpful!

AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush Review

1 / 5 / 171 / 5 / 17

thumb

Hello my Bondbeautys,

Its been a long time since I have done a post. With that said one of my new years resolution is to be more consistent in my blog & youtube. I really want to do more this year and I hope you guys are as excited as I am for this new year! So Im starting out this year right with a giveaway! With that said you will have to wait till  the end to learn more about that. Today I wanted to tell you my thoughts and experience with the AsaVea Hair Straightening Brush*. I was sent this brush a couple weeks ago to try out and I have been so impressed with it that I decided to do a whole blog post about it.

4-review-copy

Lets talk about what the company claims really quickly (Inserted exactly from the website*) Advanced MCH ceramic heat technology delivers a consistent optimum temperature
Suitable for a variety of hair types with seven temperature levelsfrom 330˚F to 450˚F
Give you smooth, straight, frizz-free hair in half the time it takes to use a flat iron.

 

PROS:

  • Heats up & Cools Down Quickly
  • Because of the Bristles it creates a barrier between you and the flat iron part to help prevent burning; although the bristle still get hot they are not as hot as the iron plate underneath.
  • Decreases frizz when straightening because of the brush & iron combo. (although for my hair it definitely illuminates some of the frizz but not all because of how frizzy & damaged my hair truely is)
  • Temperature is suitable to fit all hair types. I like to have it at 410
  • Straightens & styles my hair without leaving it flat. It straightens it & gives it volume.
  • Love how it styles BANGS does an amazing job & makes it easier. (see video below for small demo)
  • Minimizes damage because I only pull it through my hair 2 times!

CONS:

  • Takes the same amount of time for me to straighten my hair. (But for others with super super curly hair & non manageable hair it can minimize your hair straightening time if you use this first)
  • If you have really tangly or damaged hair you need to use a brush first or it will rip your hair out. Its not soft enough to use this to get tangles out!
  • For some the Price will be a CON it retails for $54.94* ; But with that said to get a really nice straightener it costs about the same or even less than a CHI

9-review

So with that said lets talk about some Tips & Tricks to making this the most affective.

  1. I comb my hair through before using this
  2. I divide it into 1inch sections
  3. I pull my hair straight (still gently) while I pull the comb through
  4. Start at the very roots & pull through slowly
  5. DO NOT STOP Always keep moving to prevent any burning or damage
  6. AT the very end curl the ends by turning your wrist in or out depending on what look you are going for
  7. USE a Hair oil/elixer * or Spray*to get rid of all frizz .
  8. At the Crown I Will divide the section I would usually tease and put Comb at the base & pull backwards (Making a n motion)to give it extra volume. (See video same motion as I do with my bangs)

Here is how my hair turned out: Before & After (see video below)

2-review5-review

I was a skeptic but now I have converted to the Straightening brush way haha. I really do enjoy using it and because I don’t get burned as easily I will definitely use this more than my straightener. Even though I do not have really curly kinky hair I have seen it used on that hair type and it works wonders as well. So with all that said in my opinion I think it will work on all hair types & it is worth the buy.

Here is my full review , where I show the Straightening Brush & I show you a full demo of me using it!

2. Put the light pink under the brows for a highlight (#1)

3. Put this peachy gold on the outer 2/3 of the lid (#2)

4. Use your bronzer and add with a blending brush to the crease.

5. Add this pinky shade to blend out the line between the peach and smudge pot. (#3)

6. Add this purple light matte shade into the crease and outer part of the lid.(#4)

7. Mix the #5 & #6 which are both matte and deepen up the out part of the lid & crease. Then make sure to blend the crease with a big fluffy brush.

8. Add the #4 light purple to the lower lid & you can mix it with this beautiful cranberry shade aswell. (#8)

9. Last add the #7 which is a shimmer light shade to the inner corners to brighten up the look.

Then you are all done just add liner & Mascara!
