imPress Press on Nails Review

Image
I was taking the boys out and realized I wouldn’t have time to do my nails over the course of the weekend due to the Labor Day holiday. So, I turned to the imPress press on nails that I had sitting with the rest of my nails stuff. I was a little on the fence because this particular brand has the peel and stick adhesive guaranteeing to last.   I had used them once before and they didn’t last the full night let alone the ride in the car. By the end of the night I had 2-3 nails missing from each hand. Which had me feeling like I should have went to the event with my nails not being done at that point. Which I found interesting because I had tried another imPress press on set and it lasted for a week actually longer. Disappointed was an understatement when it didn’t work out that time. This time knowing that I was going to be outside these nails needed to last me. I prepared my natural nails as if I was going to do the “gel x” application. I used DND tip glue applied to my natural...

Brooklyn Sky Sugar Scrub Review

I happened to be on Spence Taylor ’s live and he was talking about this woman he met at Essence Fest. He spoke about how they hit it off and became friends. He found out that she owned a body care brand when she stated that he needed to give her products a try. He said how he loved her products and would get complimented on his smell after using them. They had teamed up to do a giveaway of one of her new products that was launching soon. One winner from Facebook and one winner from Instagram. I followed the instructions and entered to win. Let me tell you I was not expecting to win until she said my name on the live!   She dm me later on for my mailing address. When I got the package let me tell you the box alone smelled amazing and I hadn’t even opened it yet. The packaging was packaged very well because it was difficult to get into the box. I was grateful for it because I know my package was secure and nothing happened to in during shipping. Once I opened the box the scent waffle...

Hotel Exchange Review

Image
The Hotel Exchange is located in Amsterdam. The fashion hotel with rooms dressed like models. The hotel is in walking distance to the train station, boat rides, shopping, the Sex Museum, and the Red Light District. That was just a few things we did since we were so close to everything in walking distance. Hotel Amenities Complimentary wifi, soap, and shampoo. For other things you may have forgotten or didn't think about like a outlet power converter the sold in a vending machine on the second floor. There was another vending machine that sold snacks and water. They supplied a free map of things to do in the area. Lounge Space at the Hotel The Exchange Lounge space. The elevator is big enough for 2 people with not a lot of luggage. The hubs and I almost didn't fit and we had backpacks! Well, there were 2 elevators in the hotel. One going from the main floor where you check in at to the lounge area on the second floor and the other elevator taking you to the re...

Hotel Metro Review

Image
Hey loves, Just like I promised a video for Travel Tuesdays! It's a review of our stay when we went to London, Canada. Hotel Metro is a boutique hotel, that has 4 floors, 7 rooms on each floor. The lobby was beautifully decorated and I loved the little touches they had like the ramp for your luggage and the complimentary infused water. The fruit infused water was different every day. We went to London to celebrate our friend Frazier's birthday. Our friends stayed in the King Suite, it was a large spacious room, with a chair, flat screen TV, desk, large ottoman at the foot of the bed, coffee area, that had a jetted, soaker tub, rain shower, and a separate private toilet. Their room had a view of the outside where you could see the festival going on out front. Since, it was Frazier's birthday they gave him a complimentary bottle of wine. Picture taken inside of the Hotel Metro, King Suite  Sly and I stayed in the Queen Suite. The Queen Suite had a couch, des...
