July 4th Mani & Pedi
Happy 4th of July to all of my American friends. My manicure is kind of kooky as I have purple glitter over turquoise polish with red on my tips. The red turned out purple, so I left it. My pedicure is
the typical 4th of July colors.
I hope everyone has a great holiday weekend with family and friends.

Tarte Review
Hello! I had a fun day off yesterday, visiting my local Ulta for a haircut and style. My awesome stylist Taleah asked me if I wanted a Tarte make over after my hair appointment. I’m like heck yeah! We were going out with friends later, and I had not done my make up yet.
I’ve used a few products from the Tarte line, but never any make up. The Tarte make up artist Shannon, did an awesome job, and I ended up buying two items.

Freebies!

VIP Lip Sculptor

Lip Color swatches

Contour Palette


Great coverage make up!
Shannon used all of the colors from the contour palette, taking me through each step. I’ve been a make up artist in the past, and she really knew her products. My eyelids have practically vanished due to gravity, so I was glad to be able to see my eyes better. It’s $45 at Tarte Contour Palette
The Lip Sculptor in VIP is awesome! Super creamy lipstick with a matching gloss that wasn’t sticky at all. It’s $24 at VIP Lip Sculptor
Not only did I get these two great products, but I got two freebies as well. A deluxe sample of the Maracuja Oil and Maracuja C-brighter eye treatment. I’ve used both products before and they are great.
The best part, not only did I get some amazing products, but as a Ulta rewards member I got 20% off my purchase. It’s a once a year promotion where you can get 20% off your entire purchase including premium brands.
Ulta knocks it out of the park again!
