Shopping

Before: I am not the best at painting my nails. I never fail to get polish on my skin while painting them and it is a pain for me to go back later to remove the polish. These nail cones prevent this from happening. Before painting your nails, find a sticker (3 sizes included in each package of 15) that will fit each nail and place it around the sides of your nails and under the top of your nail. It will look like you have an ice-cream scoop on top of your finger. Hehe. Such a cute and fun idea.

First impression: Oh, I am jumping with joy at how adorable the box that this curler came in! I would definitely give this out as a gift based on how adorable the darn box is. It is little things like this that impress me. The first impression would make me stop and look if this were in stores. Inside the box was a card explaining to leave feedback or contact them with issues and the beauty eyelash curler with a pretty red handle. (I was even more excited to see the red handle, being that it is my favorite color)

First impression: Well I handed these over to my boyfriend who immediately looked over them and said to write a good review. Haha. My boyfriend is very particular about every single thing that he buys. He only likes the best of the best products, so for him to tell me to write a good review is a great thing!

How it Works: If you have ever used Microsoft word or Excel, this is quite similar. When you first open the application you are given tons of premade templates that you can choose from or you can choose to start from a blank canvas. The Templates include: Posters, flyers, letters, envelopes, brochures, catalogs, menus, business cards, invites, and the list goes on and on. If you choose to use a premade template just double click on one that you like. It will be opened and you can customize it to your liking. It is very easy to customize by using the bar on the right which allows you to edit photos, font, and colors. You can add pictures, delete pictures, add text, and add design to any part of the page as you desire.

First impression: The product came in a simple little box. My first thought was “Is this really going to work?” I took it out of the box and seen that it comes with two hooks. One hook is to hang the mirror on and the other hook is to hang your razor on, since this is meant for men that are shaving. I personally use it to apply my face masks and to take off my makeup since I usually do this in the shower. It looks as if there is cardboard on the back of the mirror, which immediately concerned me. I figured that the moisture in the bathroom would eventually ruin the mirror. The hooks come with adhesive on the back, which also concerned me because from my personal experience adhesive gets ruined when wet.

First impression: This serum comes in a glass bottle with a dropper for an applicator. When I first received the product I opened it to smell it, as usual. The smell is very bland and plain. It doesn’t smell citrusy like some Vitamin C Serums do. It isn’t a bad smell, but it is not amazing either.

First impression: I have never had matcha before. I was intrigued when reading that it gives you energy and increases focus. When I first received it, I opened the bag and smelled it like always. The color, which is a bright green, definitely scared me. I was afraid of a grassy smell and taste. The smell is very nice though. It has a nice refreshing smell of green tea (go figure haha).

As soon as I signed up a stylist contacted me through email. (I am not 100% sure how long it typically takes for a stylist to reach out to you after signing up, but being that I am a blogger, I was already in contact with the BJB Director; she knew I was signing up at that moment.) She welcomed me to their site and asked me if there was anything specific I would like to see in my box. I told her that I love accessories and I wear jeans daily. I also mentioned that I was going to a music festival in June and asked that she put anything comfortable and stylish that would be trendy enough for a festival. She put a box together for me based on my direct requests and my style information from when I signed up.
