They have all kinds of insects and animals. They also show an actual Flash Flood . The cost to get in is FREE!! They do have a suggested donation price.

Incoco


Ok so we were in Vegas over Labor Day and I stopped by one of the Kiosk and they were selling Incoco Nail Polish. Its the nail polish on dry strips. They did one of my nails in French Manicure and I have to say they are AMAZING!!! The only problem is that they were selling the kits for $60.00 and the individual colors for $16.00 so I went on line and they are less expensive.
You can buy them at http://www.incoco.com/

Sally Hansen also makes there own brand that cost around $9.99but they don't have French Manicure but still very cute!

Smelling Good !!











So I came across a few scents that I love for Woman and Men.

This first one you can only buy at Sephora it is Strawberry Flower. The company Fresh made this scent just for them. It is so sweet and clean .... LOVE IT !! I wear it everyday.


The second one is buy Fresh as well and it is called Sugar Lychee. You have to go online or visit one of their stores to buy this. We were at the Grove in LA the other night and stumbled across this one. The Hubby loves it!! Hoping I get it for Christmas.

You can look at the products at http://www.fresh.com/ and http://www.sephora.com/





The last one is for the MEN !! My husband and I were walking through the mall and we passed by Abercrombie and Fitch and we kept smelling this scent that was wonderful. So we walked in and asked what is was and it was FIERCE. My hubby tried it on and at first we didn't care for it but as he was wearing it the better he smelled. So we went back to the store and bought it.

Nail Stamping

We were at the OC Fair and came across a booth where they were doing Nail Stamping by Konad. They make it look so easy. I loved the stamp that does French Manicure, but they have all kinds of designs. Well My Mother In Law decided to split a stamp set which comes with the following each: Stamper, 3Disc , Stamp Paint, Top Coat and the Scrapper. As soon as I got home I wanted to try it. I got everything out and got started . What a mess!! I got so frustrated so I decided to go on You Tube and watch other people do it and again they made it look so easy . I came to the conclusion that it is a fun and great product you just have to practice a lot. And here is my finished product...


Ice Project

O.k so I have this friend and I swear her entire Family is so creative. She had wrote on her Blog about an Ice Project she does with her kids and it looked like so much FUN we had to try it. So first you take any Toys that you dont mind getting wet and possibly broken and put them in a plastic bowl, fill w/ water , put in the frezzer overnight.








And here comes the FUN part...




You give them a water spray bottle and a hammer and they just LOVE breakin out the toys, its like a Ice Pinata . Just be careful with the hammer , the best kind to use is a really small one, we only had a big one around. ENJOY!!!

Mac Cosmetics



I have always had a hard time finding foundation that I really like. I cant tell you how many times I have gone to the Mac counter and got home and hated it. I have tried the minerals, the organic , the drugstore and still didnt have much luck until I decided I would give Mac another try and Im so glad I didnt give up on them completly:) They have a some what newer line of this great stuff called Prime and Prep , this stuff is awesome. They have a primer before you put on your base( Studio Fix in Liquid) then they have a Prime and Prep powder that you use over your base and as your powder. It is white but goes on translucent.

During the day when you don't want allot of coverage I mix the liquid primer and base together . Also they have the Prime and Prep to use before you apply your mascara
( I use the Dazzle Lash in Black Dazzle Mascara)
What a difference some primer will make !
