My New Favorite Hair Tool

Greetings from New Orleans!  Brigitte (my bestie) and I arrived last night and have been loving the city so far.  Posts are coming soon and some vlogs on youtube to show our adventures.

Just before I left an exciting package arrived: my new NuMe curling iron set!!!!  I had been lusting over a high end curling iron for some time and after months of watching my favorite bloggers and youtubers create gorgeous curls with them, I broke down and bought one.



Now before you tut at the price tag (it retails for $280), you should know I got a deal which happens to make me super happy.  I love discovering an item I truly want/need, knowing it is quality, and then getting a deal on it.  Recently I started a subscription to Ipsy which I am absolutely loving by the way.  A less discussed benefit of this service is the coupon codes to the many brands featured each month.  Unlike Birchbox or the other subscriptions who sell products on their site, Ipsy directs you to the individual company sites.  Normally this doesn't appeal to me since I am not racking up points, scoring samples, or free gifts plus normally shipping is outrageous.  HOWEVER, this time around it gave me an fantastic deal on the very curling iron set I had been wanting.  Score!  Plus I recieved a free curling iron.  Double Score!

Why this set you may be asking?  Unlike other curling irons, this one has detachable wands with a single base.  Rather than spending a hundred or more for each curling iron, you get everything you could want in a single set!


The lustrum set includes 19mm, 25mm, 32mm, 13mm-25mm reverse wand, and pearl.  

Another bonus is how easy it is to travel with.  It comes with a storage case that rolls up to save space while already having spots for everything in the kit.  Love it!


The infrared iron heats up to 410 degrees quickly and the negative ion technology helps tames the frizz.  Here are my before and after shots using the reverse wand before enjoying beautiful NOLA.


Remember if you're an Ipsy member check out the coupon code to score 50% off, free shipping, and a free curling wand.  Oh and the offer is good through May 15th!  If you aren't an Ipsy member, check out the flash sales on NuMe's website or keep an eye on HauteLook.

My Beauty Stash

I don't know if you're anything like me, but some of my favorite posts and videos are seeing other people's make up collections.  There is something so intriguing peeking into people's homes and no I don't mean that in the peeping Tom sort of way. Since it is a favorite I figured it would a be a great first post.  Now this is just a taste of my collection.  More will be coming, perhaps even in video form.......!

Until then enjoy taking a peek.
