Hey Lovelies!

Today I will be doing my first watch review. Last week I received a complementary SKMEI Men's Silver Analog Wrist Watch from #Aposon. After I received the confirmation for the company stating that my watch has been shipped....it literally took 4 days to get to my house.

When I open that package the watch was encased in a rectangular cardboard box.  To be honest, I thought the packaging would be a bit more appealing. At first sight, just looking at the packaging... I thought the watched would look just as cheap, but to my surprise the watch was definitely an eye catching piece.

• Case Material: Zinc Alloy
• Band Material: Silver-plated-stainless-steel

Stainless Steel Durable Waterproof Case Cover. 98FT / 30M Water Resistant

I absolutely love this watch. This watch is a mix of fashion and luxury, yet modern and casual. I would recommend this watch to men who are looking for a good quality, fashionable and affordable time piece.  For those women who are shopping for the "minimalist significant other"...this watch is  certainly a stylish minimalism design.

In the next couple of weeks I will be doing a review for the women's version of this watch. So stay tune for this upcoming post.

Vanity Planet's Beauty Essentials

Hey Luvs!

Today I would would like to share my thoughts with you on a 15pc professional Make-up Brush Palette and the Classic 10 eye shadow palette that Vanity Planet had sent me a couple of weeks ago.

To be quite honest, I was really in need of a new set of makeup brushes and I was super excited to try out this set. I was more ecstatic at the fact that they sent me an eye shadow palette to try as well.

If you haven't heard of Vanity Planet, here's a little info about the brand:

"Vanity Planet is a boutique marketplace, focused on beauty, grooming, and wellness. We're more than your typical online store. We source, curate, and design products that benefit your life on the daily. Our approach is simple: amazing taste with minimal investment. Each item we carry is selected with intention and quality is never, ever sacrificed. Why? Because like you, we say forget the stigmas. We admit we care about our appearance and how we portray ourselves to the world. Care and confidence run deep in our veins, so we're conscious about the things we own and understand how they improve our everyday lives.
That's why we only sell goods we use, goods we love."

The eye shadow palette I received was Makeover Essentials: Classic 10 Sunlit Breeze Eye Shadow Set. The colors in this palette are definitely perfect for the summer. However, this palette is not at all pigmented.  You do have to "pack on" or go over each eyelid several times to get the eye shadow to really show. 

The makeup brushes came in a black sleek faux-leather rollout pouch. Each brush is made with premium synthetic bristles which  allows for a smooth, controlled, and streak-free application of dry, cream, and liquid based products. The handles are made from Birchwood, which makes them light, yet sturdy. Whats even more amazing about this product..all the brushes are cruelty free!

The makeup brush set includes:

1. Kabuki Brush
2. Powder/Blush Brush
3. Flat Top Stippling Brush
4. Angled Contour Brush
5. Liquid Foundation Brush
6. Large Fan Brush
7. Concealer Brush
8. Medium Blender
9. Smudging Brush
10. Crease Shader
11. Large Domed Shader
12. Precision Concealer
13. Rounded Liner Brush
14. Angled Lining Brush
15. Lip Liner Brush with a cap

This set retails at $100. I loved the design of the brushes. The bristles are indeed soft and worked well when I applied my makeup.  I feel that if you are a beginner (like myself) who are looking for a set of professional makeup brushes, but at a more affordable cost....I think this is the set for you!


This weekend I will be attending a wedding. I will be posting follow-up pics of the makeup look I created using Vanity Planet Make-up Brush Palette. So stay tuned.

Vanity Planet has provided a one-time exclusive 70% discount code for my readers to be redeemed at checkout....which means this $100 set would now be $30 if you use the below code.
