Tarte Gifted Amazonian Clay Smart Mascara ($19) A reparative and volumizing mascara containing Tarte’s biggest beauty breakthrough, Amazonian clay. This amazing mascara delivers a 406% increase in lash volume and long-term reparative, rebuilding, and strengthening benefits with each swipe giving you instant results and better lash health. Just as it intuitively restores hydration and texture in skin, Amazonian clay intuitively hydrates and replenishes dry and brittle lashes to prevent fallout. High performance natural™Amazonian clay performs all day by absorbing oil to balance mascara and keep product in place for flake-free longer wear. It lends itself to deepen pure color pigments creating a volume-boosting formula with higher intensity and truer pure color. The result is healthier and more voluminous lashes that won’t ever flake or transfer, naturally. After daily wear, lashes are intact, healthier and stronger. This mascara prevents lash loss and promotes lash health.
My Thoughts:
I really like Tarte’s Gifted Amazonian Clay Smart mascara. It’s a really good mascara for natural looking lashes. The mascara gives enough volume and length to your lashes to make them more noticeable but not overly dramatic. Also, the mascara doesn’t clump, smudge, or flake! It stays on all day and comes off easily when you remove it. I love that it didn’t dry out my lashes. Instead, my lashes felt soft. Overall, even though I liked the mascara, I feel you can find cheaper costing mascaras that work just as well. I couldn’t find a feature of the Tarte Gifted Amazonian Clay Smart mascara that stood out to justify the price tag.

Too Faced LashGasm Mascara ($21) A voluptuous, fluffing mascara that conditions as it thickens to create dramatically long lashes with intense color. Lashgasm’s multiple rows of flexible-but-firm, molded bristles are designed with micro-hooks that grab each and every lash for a clump-free application. The vitamin-rich, creamy formula penetrates for high-color absorbency and exaggerated depth. Meadowfoam Seed Oil forms a protective barrier to lock in soothing emollients that promote long-term wear without drying or harming lashes. A moisturizing combination of Panthenol, Vitamins A & E, and Jojoba Seed Oil hydrates and soothes lashes to keep them soft, light, and flexible.
My Thoughts:
Too Faced LashGasm is a wet formula mascara that is suppose to thicken and lengthen your lashes. I really like this mascara because it does a great job of separating, lengthening, and adding a bit of volume to your lashes with no clumping. The mascara wand has comb-like teeth instead of bristles that grab onto your lashes and does a good job of coating each lash with mascara. I would’ve loved Too Faced LashGasm if the formula wasn’t so wet. It takes time to dry so you have to try your hardest not to blink right away or you’ll end up with mascara everywhere. However, I did notice that after each use the mascara formula would be less wet. I’m guessing this is because the formula is being exposed to the air, and the air is drying out the mascara. So I guess in the end it worked out. Overall, Too Faced LashGasm is a good mascara. I think it’s worth a try if you don’t mind the initial wet formula.

Travalo ($15.99) Have you ever wished you could have a quick freshen up when you’re out and about? Carrying a big glass perfume or aftershave bottle is inconvenient, heavy and can be dangerous if it fallsand shatters. Travalo is a refillable atomizer bottle with a difference. Its patented easy fill system allows you to refill in seconds with a simple repeat pump action. Travalo makes it easy and convenient to have your scent with you any time, anywhere. Travalo fills directly from almost any fragrance bottle with a removable spray head. Take your Travalo straight out of the pack and it’s ready to use immediately. Simply remove the nozzle from your big fragrance bottle, pump Travalo up and down on the tube, and you can be ready to go in just a few seconds.
My Thoughts:
Travalo is perfect for the perfume lover and traveler! It has made traveling with perfume so much easier. The Travalo is a perfume atomizer that was made for travel. The small size is airline approved for carry-on luggage. What I really like about the Travalo is how sturdy it is. Also, it’s leakproof! It is very easy to use. All you have to do is take off the spray cap of your perfume bottle and pump. It’s that easy! The Travalo can hold 50 sprays. There is even a little window on the Travalo so you can see how much perfume you have left. The one downside of the Travalo is that you can’t wash it out to fill it with a different perfume. The scent from the previous perfume still lingers. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to mix different scents together. I suppose this wouldn’t be a problem if you have similar scented perfumes. Overall, the Travalo is perfect for people who want to travel with perfume but don’t want to lug around the big glass bottle.

 Topol Plus Toothpaste ($4.49) Topol Plus all-in-one toothpaste helps brighten teeth and control the toughest stains while fighting plaque and cavities, and freshening breath with a minty flavor. The original stain fighter, Topol Plus is a peroxide-free polishing system that gently, yet effectively, helps remove even the toughest teeth stains, such as red wine, coffee, tea and even tobacco, and helps keep stains from coming back. With Topol, you can enjoy your lifestyle and a bright, healthy smile when you brush twice daily, floss and visit dentist regularly.
My Thoughts:
Topol Plus toothpaste is a good whitening toothpaste. If you’re looking for a toothpaste that will drastically whiten your teeth as if you had it professionally bleached, this isn’t the product for you. Instead, Topol Plus was able to brighten my teeth about a shade whiter after a couple weeks of use. I found the toothpaste much easier to use than whitening strips. With whitening strips, you have to wait 20-30 minutes before removing while Topol Plus is used like a regular toothpaste. Topol Plus also whitened all of my teeth, not just the front teeth like strips do. Not only did Toplol Plus whiten, it also prevented daily foods and drinks from staining my teeth. I like that Topol Plus is just like a regular toothpaste. It has a yummy minty taste and it didn’t hurt my sensitive teeth. It’s very easy and convenient to use.

 Tonic Hair Care Luster Tonic ($14) Luster is a leave-in conditioning mist with powerful UV-inhibitors and natural botanical oils designed to protect hair from the damaging effects of sun, salt, wind and chlorine. Use before or after your outdoor exploits to avoid embarrassing stares, awkward silences and multiple trips to the bathroom mirror. Our unique cream-to-mist technology doubles as a luxurious moisturizer that re-hydrates dull skin with aloe vera and grapeseed oil, leaving a subtle scent of remote tropical island. Think French West Indies meets the Caribbean with a delicious blend of vanilla, banana and a hint of sparkling orange extract. Luster is the answer to split ends, breakage and dry, tangled hair. From knotty to nice, give a new meaning to surfer hair and luster your locks!
My Thoughts:
I usually avoid using leave-in-conditioners because they always leave my hair feeling gross. Luster Tonic leaves my hair feeling rejuvenated! I’ve been using this all summer long so far and it has saved my hair from drying out from the constant California heat and sun. I make sure I always have this near me when I head to the beach. The salty air can be quite harsh to your hair. My favorite thing about the Luster tonic is the smell. I cannot get over how yummy Luster Tonic smells. It smells like cupcakes with a hint of a beach smell! Another great and unique feature of the Luster Tonic is the cream-to-mist formula. When you spray it in your hair, the mist is so fine you would have never guessed it is really a cream. It’s very light and doesn’t weigh down your hair. Highly recommend!
