Marc Jacobs Beauty Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara

This is a great mascara that gives your lashes length and volume.The brush works great and covers my lashes with voluminous, velvety, dark black color. I have short eyelashes and this makes an impact giving me gorgeous volume and length.   It's not clumpy and does not flake off. 

YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick Review

#YSLRougePurCouture

I received the YSLRougePurCouture VoxBox for testing purposes thanks to influenster.  The packaging of the lipstick is beautiful.  It's the prettiest lipstick that I've ever seen.  I received two colors, Rose Stiletto  and  Fuchsia .  The lipstick colors are bright and vibrant and are long lasting.  I enjoy wearing nudes and matte colors so I will be checking out what other colors they have.  Overall the lipstick is Fancy and I'll be shopping for more

The Lipsticks:

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture No. 9 Rose Stiletto

 Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Pur Couture No. 19 Fuchsia

YVES SAINT LAURENT Touche Eclat Blur Perfector Review

YSL Blur Perfector -

I really like YSL products! I was able to test this product complements of influenster. The blur Perfector works great to set my make-up. It goes and smooth and has no color. It's better to use before foundation because when using after it removed some of my makeup. The only downside is the applicator does not fit in the compact. The primer is a must have!

Christopher's 6th ARMY Birthday Party

My son Christopher LOVES anything Army and he wanted an "ARMY" themed party, so my husband and I put one together for him!

 

I made his invitations on the computer using Picasa.

 

When the kids arrived they received an Army mask to wear.

 

 

My husband made an obstacle course in our backyard.  After doing a warm up exercise with Sergeant Dan (My Husband) The kids had to complete a course that involved jumping through hoops (garden hose), climbing through a tunnel, climbing through crazy wire (string), climbing up and over a wall, walking across a beam, climbing up on a post then taking a ride in the tire swing :)

 

After the Course the kids took a ride on our zipline~

We served hot dogs, nachos & cheese, fruit, chips & dip,  preztels,  celery & ranch, candy, cupcakes, water, juice & soda.

 

 

 

I used brown paper bags for the "goodie bags" and printed out the number 6 that I glued to each bag.  I also attached a note that thanked them for coming to his party.  The kids filled their bags with the candy from the dessert table.

 

 

After Christopher opened his gifts we had a surprise for all the kids!  My husband made Marshmallows shooters for each child to take home.  He made them using PCP and spray paint.  Each child received one along with a bag of mini marshmallows and they had a marshmallow fight :)

 

 

 

The kids had a Blast!! The party was a Success and the Birthday boy was Happy :)

We made a PHOTO BOOTH (from a refrigerator box) My mom made the props from her cricut machine.

 

We have Several Large stuffed animals so we put them in our Trampoline with a sign that said "Do Not Feed the Animals"

The kids had Fun jumping in the "Lion Cage" :)

 

 

 

We put our air hockey table outside for more fun and kids had fun on the swings.

 

I always get overwhelmed and forget to take pictures of the food. lol  We served cotton candy, hot dogs, nachos & cheese, animal crackers, juice, soda, punch, popcorn, candy, cupcakes and Snow Cones!! 

 

 

Each child bought home cotton candy, animal crackers, candy and they exchanged tickets for prizes.  The bags they received at the beginning of the party they used for all their goodies and Prizes!
