Smackers Luscious Lip Gloss

Normally I have a picture of the display to go with a product review but I was in a rush and didn't get any. I have plenty of pictures of the product though. Found in Rite Aid or other stores that carry Smackers products like Harmon's or Walmart, I made out with paying a whole whopping $2.95 for this product. If you aren't near any of those locations, you can purchase these online and prices will vary. So moving on to the topic.
I at first was sketchy of these new items and assumed they were released for the retro scents/flavores. So I picked up Strawberry Lemonaid since that was my favorite as a youngster an woah Nelly these were not your regular lip balms. They aren't lip balms at all actually, they are saturated lip glosses in a stick form and are soo smooth and luscious as the name pursaudes. There are around 6-8 flavors and they all smell great, some have shimmer, glitter and shiny particles others like Strawberry Lemonaid are glossy. Over all you must get these in my opinion they rival any high end moisture stick and only are $3-4. In fact if you can spare the money buy the whole display so you'll never run out and spend $25-50 on a luxury brand moisture stick. If your worried about lip tinting then no worries there is hardly any color if at all imparted in any way. However please not that the type of gloss is listed on the packaging like in the picture below it is clearly written that this Pomegranate Fizz has sparkle in it. I listed the other finished above already. Well that's enough chatter about this product, if you want to seepre beauty reviews or hauls please watch my YouTube @alicearisuhearts.

Estee Lauder Gilded Rose Set

Bought these a while ago but I am just posting these as a review. These are a set of eyeshadows and marbleized shimmer powder. The eyeshadows come gilded but the gold is not incorporated into the shadows. These are satin colors one light baby pink, a magenta pink, a peachy tan pink, and the fourth is a tawny rose color. Super close to matte powders and a little disappointing because the "rose gold" overlay comes right off with one swipe. The colors are very nice though even if the overlay goes away. The marble shimmer powder feels good on my skin but as I have some tan left on my skin the rose blends a little bit too much. So a fair skin or yellowed skin will really benefit from the color in the marble if you want to use it as a blush. Otherwise the shimmer looks good as a general highlight. I did not buy both at the same time I got them from my local CCO for around 16.00 a piece. Compared to retail Estee Lauder prices this is very cheap. I wished there was a rose gold match...

My favorite Air Dry Clays

 Favorites change day by day for some people but I have found some reliable products that I suggest using.  Air dry clay takes about 3 days to dry but that is the minimum I have found. Anywhere from 3-7 days is for any object to be completely dry not just to the touch. I consider clays dry when they are completely dry on the inside and outside. Raccoon Honey I just got so I haven't used it yet. Hearty is a Japanese brand resin clay. Crayola makes Model Magic and their own form of air dry ceramic clay. Creatology is very cheap and good for simple sculptures. I did not include Kutsuwa brand clay since I don't like it very much. I don't like Debika clays either I find them to be along the lines of Kutsuwa clay. Kutsuwa clay - very moist paper clay that is easy to mold, mix with glue to soften the clay if it dries out. Feels spongy when wet but dries hard.  Takes over 5 days to dry hard (not just to the touch but throughout the clay), light weight hard texture when abs...

Project Share: Pink Carousel Clouds

AAH - Carousel Clouds Brooch 1/28/20 -Accessories/Jewelry/Lolita/Pastel Introducing my latest creations.  My plaster castings follow the same process for each piece. First I prep my plaster. I use DAP brand Plaster of Paris which is basic and not expensive, you mix it with water to activate. Once mixed I pour into hard plastic molds. There are flexible molds for plaster but usually the less flexible molds assist in the curing of the plaster for an even structure through out the cast.  Making plaster castings is hit or miss. Most of them suffer some sort of damage when taking the casts out of the mold. Damages range from cracks and fissures to straight up broken fragments. Dealing with these issues is part of the process and can become a learning experience so it is best to take on these tasks with enthusiasm. Building experience with the medium will make creating these items more enjoyable and less frustrating over time.  e
