Win It: The Body Shop Sweet Lemon Collection

The following giveaway is closed and a winner has been selected.  Thank you for joining in!

Just a beauty reminded……….

The Body Shop LemonAid Campaign launched earlier this week at www.lemonaid.thebodyshop-usa.com where The Body Shop is taking some of life’s worst lemons such as sex trafficking and raising money for ECPAT USA and the Somaly Mam Foundation (Up To $10,000 will be donated) to help stop this awful crime.

ECPAT International has a global network of organizations committed to stopping the exploitation and trafficking of children for sexual purposes. Through enacting initiatives on local levels as well as providing support and education, ECPAT continues to advocate for children everywhere.

The Somaly Mam foundation was started by its namesake founder, herself a survivor of sexual slavery. After escaping her captors, Somaly Mam began this organization to help support other survivors as they rebuild their lives by providing emotional and economic support. Somaly Mam also creates global awareness raising initiatives to make sure that the issue of children in sexual slavery is not ignored.

I’m sure it sounds surreal to your reality but these crimes are happening everyday and The Body Shop wants to do their part to help put an end to these crimes.

You can help to in five different ways!

Tarina Tarantino Sparklicity Pure Review and Swatches

Tarina Tarantino Sparklicity Pure 3

The Muse has toned down her evil sparkly, shimmery ways but she recently couldn’t resist the temptation of purchasing some Tarina Tarantino Sparklicity Pure Shimmer Powder.

It’s kinda like smoking a fag isn’t it? You quit smoking but you’re never quite cured of the craving. The same goes for this Muse and sparkle. She quit it for a while but she can never really get over craving more of it.

This time she gave in.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Mini Wax Kit Review

Ok, gather round kids. Let’s see if we can all sit nicely and try not to giggle while discussing our lady whiskers. Damn straight I said whiskers.

The Muse has a stash and she’s girl enough to admit it.

Here’s the deal between threading and waxing I’d say my mustache stays away for about two weeks time. Rolling into the end of week two I’m starting to sport a bit of a Frito Bandito mustache going on. Now the problem with this would be that my brows don’t catch up to my stash. So I’m kinda sitting around at the end of week two and hoping and wishing the dreaded uni-brow would grow in already so I can make one trip to the salon instead of two to get both the stash under control and the brows in one shot. But sadly, it never works out that way so I sit around and wait for my brows to catch up to the massive amount of hair that’s now growing on my upper lip because I’m too damn busy to go to the salon twice.

Let’s put it this way, it’s a scary sight.

Now I have a cool way to whisk away whiskers while my brows are busy growing back in!

New in Beauty: Victoria’s Secret Secret Moments

Victorias Secret Secret Moments

Victoria’s Secret Secret Moments Collection launches in store March 23rd according to The Cut.

w00t! New VS beauty just what we likey.

Scents include:

  • Girls’ Night
  • Island Escape
  • At Fight Sight
  • Room 504
  • Good Day Sunshine

The collection is inspired by Alessandra Ambrosio’s personal memories (Victoria’s Secret Model) for example laying eyes on her daughter for the first time was the inspiration behind the scent At First Sight.  Is it terribly perverse that I’m wondering what happened in Room 504? Debauchery!

The scents includes cocktails of peach, coconut, sugarcane, and blue freesia.

Looks cute enough, elegant packaging.

What do you think?

I’m thinking I probably don’t need more Victoria’s Secret Bath and Body bits in my life but I’m tempted to sniff.

Whatcha think?

Beauty Abroad: My Beauty Diary Black Cherry Chocolate Mask Review

Ahh cherries and chocolate. I guess some folk consider it ambrosia, I happen to hate it. Cherry cordials? Gag me with a spoon. Can’t stand them. I swear they make me literally ill. I mean it’s chocolate which is ok (I’m not the biggest choco-aholic around) and slimy gross cherries inside so when you bite into it you get a surprisingly gross texture in your mouth that’s supposed to make you roll your eyes back in your head and sigh in delight?

I think not.

I like cherries and I like chocolates but the two together I’ll skip on!

You know My Beauty Diary combined chocolate and cherries to make their new facial masks and I honestly wasn’t so disgusted but more excited!
