UpBra ~ Bigger Boobs, Better Cleavage ~ review

*pr sample*



Hello Loves

Today I have non makeup related review. A bra review to be precise. 
I do love bras and I love to shop for them. I get most of my bras at Marshall's these days. Sometimes I might walk in to VS and pick my fave Bombshell bra but let's be honest they are so pricey that I decided to stick to Marshalls. 

Before Christmas I was approached by UpBra team and asked to try and review their bras. I said yes right away coz well I heard of UpBra before and I always wanted to try it. 


I love push up bras, the more push up the better in my opinion. My boobs are not too small and not too big. I used to be 34B but after gaining weight and well having a baby all these years ago, i am stuck on 38C now. And I will tell you it is hard to find a good bra in that size. 

Anyways back to UpBra. I was asked to choose two styles and they would send it to me. 
I went with Strapless black bra and Convertible bra also in black. I wanted one in red but since they didn't have I took black coz most the clothing I wear is dark anyways. 


So when I got the package I was excited. When I opened I was kinda ... hmm... surprised. Both bras look exactly the same. Like I didn't know which one was strapless and which was convertible.  They both came with straps on the side. Do you know what I mean? I have two exact same bras! both are same size, both are strapless and both are black! If I knew that earlier I would grab a different color or even design. I dunno I am kinda disappointed here. 



Ok but lets put that aside and talk about the actual bra. How exactly does it work!?
You can all watch many YT videos being made and see how it works. The UpBra function is a lifting mechanism - bra straps. The cleavage control straps are underneath  the bra cups, you simply pull the straps and they will lift cups and breasts upwards and towards the center . When you have the desire look of your breast you simply hook the straps in place. And voila! fuller breast and better looking cleavage. 


What I loved the most about it tho? is that the strapless bra stayed in place the whole time! I don't know how they did it but that is the first bra that stayed on with out moving or sleeping or falling or what ever. I wore it for the office Christmas party and with all the dancing and jumping the bra was in place. 


The only thing I didn't like about this bra is the wiring. Is that how you call it LOL? the bra wires were making so much sound when I was moving. Plus when I pull the cups together they didn't look good... the whole underneath wire area looked really weird. when it was on me. I dunno why and the sound omg LOL , that is the only weird part I didn't like. 
Over all the strapless bra is amazing coz it will stay on no matter what. 
Personally can't wait for Spring and Summer when I can wear them and well show off more of my cleavage! Just gotta figure out first how to stop that weird wire sound LOL

What I found at Marshalls ~ Anastasia Beverly Hills Haul



When you see on IG people posting their finds from Marshalls and TJ Maxx, you know you need to stop by yours. 


So yes a lot of people keep finding ABH products at their Marshalls. I went out last week, and boom I found few great gems!


First off I was lucky to find untouched and in perfect condition Aurora Glow palette for only $24.99! 
My Marshalls had few of them but most were badly damaged. I am not going to show you any swatches of this palette, sorry. I want to concentrate on liquid lipsticks!
Aside of the Aurora Glow kit I grabbed 4 single shadows for $3.99 each. I will make a separate post on it or I will just do a post on my Instagram. 


Now, liquid lipsticks. I grabbed 8 in total. Those were all the shades that my Marshalls had.I actually went twice. In the morning I grabbed 4 and then few hours later I grabbed remaining shades. I couldn't help myself!
The liquid lipsticks were only $6.99 each, such a steal! I see on IG pics that other Marshalls and Tj Maxx's carry more shades and they also have lip glosses priced same. 

\
It is great that I was able to get Catnip. I been wanting this shade for like ever and now it is finally mine! 

I will be definitely going back and checking for new delivery! I want all that I can get! 
How about you? did you find anything at your Marshalls and TJ Maxx? If you didn't check your Marshalls in a while, then don't just walk, run! 



January Beauty Favorites ~ 2018



Let's see if I can post favorites every month. I will try tho. 
So yes we are officially in February. I felt like January was dragging tho. So slow and so depressing. Definitely not my month. Got sick, got a tooth ache that lasted for over a week, got sick again. Ugh i could go on and on. 
But you guys are not here to read me complaining ( did that even made sense ) hahah~ 

Anyways here are few of my favorites 


Primers ~ two that I been using on and off. Smashbox Photo Finish Pore Minimizing and Pop Beauty Zero Shine primer.  Both are amazing. Both minimize pores and keep my face oil free and both nicely work with foundations. But to be honest I found myself using more POP Beauty one over the SmashBox. I feel like the Zero Shine hydrates my skin more and keeps it matte and oil free at the same time. I reviewed previously Smashbox here

Foundation ~ The new Healthy Foundation with SPF 20 by Physicians Formula. This is my new year discovery and guys I love this foundation. Works great with primes mentioned above. Leaves skin looking healthy and giving a beautiful coverage at the same time. Full review here

Concealer ~ No Filter Concealer by Colourpop. Such a beautiful concealer. Creamy, lightweight and blends well. There will be a separate note on it very soon. But if you didn't try, you have too! It retail at $6! So cheap and so good!


Setting Powder ~ Wet N Wild Photofocus Pressed Powder, yes I do adore this one. I bought it back in the summer but I haven't start using it until recently. Again super affordable! I am on the fence with the foundation but the powder is the bomb! It gives me a satin finish and it is really lightweight.

Bronzer ~ for a while now I been using Physicians Formula Butter Bronzer :) Smells like summer on tropical island and gives a beautiful warmth with out being to dark or to light. Just Perfect..


Highlighter ~ here I have two and I been using Sephora one almost every day! And the funny thing is, it is an eye shadow! Yes I been suing Satin Corest by Sephora as a highlighter and it is freaking stunning ! It gives gorgeous glow! I swear I can't put it down.


The second that comes close is the Wet N Wild Mega Glow Highlighting Powder in Precious Petals. That is the only one I have sadly. I saw that Walgreen's around my work pulled out new WNW products, so I will be getting them soon :) But yeah another affordable and amazing highlight. I use with a wet brush for blinding effect :) 


The last two are Maybelline Total Temptation Mascara and Sacha Fix It Spray.  That Maybelline mascara is the only product I like from Total Temptation line. The packaging is so freaking adorable! Over all I love Maybelline mascaras. This one gives beautiful volume to my lashes. I am preparing note on what I bought form the Temptation collection, I am just not sure when will it be up.  The fixing spray by Sacha Cosmetics, oh boy! this baby holds my makeup like no other! I really really really like it! It gives a nice even mist. It is also great to spray though out the day as well, just like a refreshing mist. 

What did you like in January?
