I admit I haven’t used hair spray since high school but the Balm En Root Hair Spray could possibly change my mind! Just saying hair, loads of bangs, and a ton of hair spray were all the rage in my high school years and so was dying your hair with kool aid, stuff like that really happened. Although as I recall Sister John was none to happy with those of us that dyed our hair outrageous shades using liquid powder drink mix.
Sometimes you have to look back on your younger years and think WHY!?
Needless to say I wasn’t terribly tempted to try out the Balm En Root Hair Spray, I thought I left the need for stiff, crunchy hair behind…

My dog, Too Faced’s biggest fan, looking horribly tortured in this photo right? I had a little pink frosted cupcake in front of him during our photo shoot but he kept licking the frosting so I had to remove it!
Happy Birthday Too Faced! I can’t believe you’re 15 years old! You’re not quite an adult yet and still have plenty of time to get away with all the mischief you can in your teen years!
Do you remember when you first discovered Too Faced? Have you been with them the entire 15 years? What are some of your favorite makeup pieces from Too Faced?
I think my very first memories of Too Faced were their wonderful buttery eyeshadows. They had such a soft, velvety texture. Their First Base Primer was another fond favorite of mine as I recall.
As for all time favorite product?
Without a doubt their Mirror Mirror Gloss. I swear it changed my lipgloss life! I’ve never ever met a better lipgloss product with such a gorgeous mirror-like finish. I rave it to anyone and everyone who will listen.
I can’t believe it’s been 15 years of beautiful makeup with Too Faced! Here’s to another 15! Happy Birthday Too Faced!
Share in the Birthday Celebration by wishing Too Faced a Happy Birthday on Twitter using hashtag #TooFacedBirthday or put on your party hat and Instagram them a photo using the same Hashtag! I’m sure it’ll make their b-day extra special!

I’m currently obsessed with the new Boscia Tsubaki Beauty Oil. Facial oils seem to be on super trend alert the past three years or so with no end in sight. They’re a skincare god sent for those of us with drier skin and those just interested in keeping their skin as hydrated as possible.
Personally, I believe the key to prevent skin from aging is as much moisture as you could possibly get especially if you have dry skin. So treating my own skin with beauty oils is a no nonsense way to hydrate them especially during PM use when my skin has time to rejuvenate as I sleep.
Let’s take a look at Boscia’s Tsubaki Beauty Oil.

Avon SuperExtend Infinitize Mascara ($9.50) is a new lengthening, curling, and lifting formula. Hmmm I’m always skeptical of mascara that promises so much because typically I experience a one trick pony from the formula that excels at any one thing but never at many.
So does Avon Super Extend Infinitize Mascara perhaps perform a few tricks with my lashes?
Let’s take a peek!

Avon doesn’t need me to rave its new Totally Kissable Lipstick but I will anyway! Avon Totally Kissable Lipstick ($4.99) launched recently in sixteen shades for a mere $4.99 each.
Avon has always had a supreme lipstick formula and one that is so incredibly budget friendly that you can’t resist hauling all the shades…I mean you can have five or more shades of a great lipstick formula for the price you’d paid for one high end.
Yeah, I think we has a deal here.
