Soak Off The Funk With #Oleavine

Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.

Hello, Fireflies!

When it comes to bath products, I am a scent-a-holic.  Plain soaps don't transport me like a wonderfully scented one! I was pretty excited to try this mint/tea tree Therapeautic Soap from Oleavine with those magic words on the label:  "Soothing Relief."

Metallic Love

Hello, Fireflies!

Apparently, as a woman of a certain age, I am supposed to be all about neutral, matte eyeshadows.  I do like matte shadows and neutral colors, for sure, but I also love glitter, shimmer, and my fave of the moment - metallic.  Oh, how I melt for those metallics! I have a few from Colour Pop and some of the Makeup Geek Foiled shadows to show you, and a look I created with some of them!

Fire (Opal) In The Hole!

Hello, Fireflies!

It's a new month, and that means a new theme for the NCC!  This time, we're all doing nail art inspired by jewelry.  I knew right away which piece of jewelry I had to do first - a funky ring, with a bittersweet story behind it.

Hello, Fireflies!

Glitter Gal Green (Radial) Gradient

Hello, Fireflies!

It's time again for Sunday Stamping!  I'm so excited about today's theme, because I've been obsessed with this technique for the last few weeks - stamping over a radial gradient!

OxyRub The Pain Away #OxyRub

Press Sample.  All opinions are my own.

Hello, Fireflies!

Did you grow up, as I did, with that familiar, pungent ointment smell that unmistakably meant that someone within a mile radius of your nose had injured themselves?  Did that smell turn you off from other pain-relieving ointments because you didn't want to advertise your groin pull to the world?  I found OxyRub to be a great alternative!
