Beauty Review: Sonia Kashuk Red Promisia Crème Body Wash

Hello All,

Happy New Years to everyone! I'm back with a review on the Sonia Kashuk body wash. As some of you may know, Sonia Kashuk came out with a bath and body line that consists of four scents. The Red Promisia was my favorite out of the bunch. I literally stood there in Target and smelt and tested the lotions.

I found the scent changed once you lather it up, the scent becomes a lot more mellow and smells more like lychee. This body wash does lather up fairly well, but I don't find the scent lingers on your skin too much after your shower. I did notice that it does have sulfates, but it did not irritate my sensitive skin.

Overall, I would recommend this as a low to mid range priced bath product. As it is very small compared to regular drugstore sized body washes.

Beauty Review: NIP + FAB Glycolic Fix Exfoliating Facial Pads

Hello there,

I've been looking at this brand for a while now, I wasn't sure if it was good or not. I did some research online through blogs and makeup alley. They all said great things about this product.

I first thought glycolic acid would be too harsh on my sensitive skin. But to my surprise it wasn't. The Hyaluronic acid moisturizes the skin also. The first couple of days my skin had to get use to the product. I had some mini breakouts around my nose and forehead area.

After day three, the mini breakouts disappeared. I noticed lesser and lesser breakouts as days went by. I can't say my acne scars and hyper pigmentation have faded or anything of that sort. But I feel that my skin looks less dull.

I don't use this twice a day and I use it every other day before bed. As this product cannot be used without sun protection during the day. So to make it easier for myself, I only use it at night.

I may eventually up my game and use it daily as a night time routine. And if I do, this post will be updated.

Stay beautiful my friends!

Beautiful view of the Golden Gates

Hello All,

Just wanted to share some highlights of my trip to San Francisco. What a beautiful city it is! I can at last say that I've been here and seen it. Lovely Art and Architecture in this beautiful city with unpredictable weather.
San Francisco is Home to some of the most famous fashion bloggers in North America. I had to see it to believe it.

Ghirardelli Factory from far. Cable Car Can't remember what we ordered but it was darn good. Mine was the one on the left, it was some sort of lemon sorbet with ginger candy. I think Laysa ordered a mint chocolate sundae. Resting my legs after walking all day. A picture with the sculpture inside the Ghirardelli store. Laysa's ice cream sundae :) Picasso, SFMOMA SFMOMA SFMOMA SFMOMA Andy Warhol, SFMOMA Andy Warhol Self Portraits, SFMOMA SFMOMA I love this polka dot painting. I'm obsessed with dots! Laysa's drawing. My little drawing of Mr.Peanut. Goofing around with sculptures in SFMOMA. Psychedelic art from the DeYoung Museum Superman! Giant Safety Pin! Japanese Tea Garden next to the De Young Museum Egyptian Sculptures Petting a Lion Sculpture It's the famous Painted Ladies, you know the Full House house! Painted Ladies Yoshi's for dinner and a show. Drinks and me. Beautiful presentation of drinks at Yoshi's. I believe this was a crab and tuna tartar. Rhubarb Dessert. Look at the coffers in the ceiling of the Legion of Honor. They're beautiful. Photo #1 Caught on Candid Camera, you won't believe what I'm about to do. Photo #2 Beginning to lie back onto this bench. Photo #3 Lying down to take a picture of the beautiful ceiling. My messy bun at the Legion of Honor. The Mighty Hand, by Rodin, 1906 The Mighty Hand, by Rodin, 1906 Water Lilies, 1914-1917

On the way to Chinatown walking downhill. The Gates to Chinatown.
The Gates are guarded by these Lion figures on both sides of the gate.
Located outside of the gate is an antique looking Police Telephone, I wonder if it still works or not? Mary Queen of Scots, 1860-1869 Opposite to the Police Telephone is a Fire Bell. Interesting enough for me to take a picture! It took a long time for us to find the Fortune Cookie Factory, but we did find it in the end. Definitely need to check this museum out. It's really cool, you get to see the underground cables in action. Interesting street sign, never seen a Left Turn only sign before. Stairwell up to the Cable Car Museum from the street level. A Vintage farebox for the Cable Cars? Pretty cool.

My BFF Laysa and I had a fantastic time in San Francisco. We loved the food and we convinced ourselves to ride the cable cars. Although, I refused to hang off the side, it was pretty safe to ride inside. Just try to stay away from the conductors/drivers/attendants (not sure what you call them). I did get hit a few times when they change lines, turn corners and etc. Grab a seat and you'll be fine. Also, when visiting you should get a citypass, you can ride the cable cars for free with the pass.

Hope you enjoyed the photos from our journey in San Francisco. My highlight was Lombard Street, Golden Gate Bridge & Yoshi's, I love the live music and fantastic Japanese food. Let me know if you have any other great spots to check out in San Francisco for my future travels in the comment box below.
